The renovation of my new house has come to the stage of decorating the kitchen. I am now preparing to install the cabinets, and the dimensions have been measured at the time of the design. However, I found that my designer actually did not measure the size of the cabinet back plate under the sink. I'm curious, why not measure it?
So I asked the designer. The designer told me that usually they don't install the back plate under the sink. Don't think that this is cutting corners. In fact, there are more benefits to doing this.
Why the cabinets under the kitchen sink are not equipped with back panels? In fact, the answer is very simple, because there are angle valves with hot and cold water pipes under the kitchen sink. In order to make it easier to repair and use during use, the designer Will not design the backplane for the owner.
And if a water purifier is installed in the kitchen at home, the socket will also be installed directly under the sink, which is why the back panel is not installed here, which is convenient for daily use needs.
But does it really need to be fenced under the sink? What should I do if there is a leak in the sink?
To prevent this from happening, the kitchen will not be flooded, so we only need to do these two aspects well.
First, when installing the angle valve of the cold and hot water pipes, be sure to wrap the surface with raw material tape, and after installing the angle valve of the cold and hot water pipes, remember to wipe the interface with a paper towel. If the paper towel does not appear wet at this time, it means that the installation is normal in this place.
Second, be sure to fix the drain pipe under the sink, and if you have the right, you can use sealant to seal the poorly sealed area, so that the above-mentioned problem of flooding the kitchen will not occur La.
In addition, when you wash things in the kitchen, you must clean the water pipes under the sink so that the water pipes will not be blocked.
