During the decoration, especially during the bathroom decoration, we usually conduct a closed water test to check whether the bathroom is waterproof. The so-called closed water test is to close the outlet through 24 hours, and then fill the toilet with water to a certain extent, to see the degree of water penetration. The closed water test is now the most popular method to measure the waterproof performance of the bathroom. It is not only simple, but also very affordable. At the same time, due to the operability of the measurement, the owners can also perform closed water test on their own. Does the 24-hour closed water test work in the bathroom? Let's take a look at the effect of the closed water test.
First, let's take a look at the practices of the bishui experiment. Block A dam at the door of the bathroom, cover the water outlet in the bathroom with an impervious bag, and then place water on the ground to drown the whole ground. The water depth should be above 2 cm. It lasts for 24 hours. Ground leakage must be strictly blocked.
Second, we should pay attention to: the effect of the closed water test must be strictly blocked. If the terrain is the same as blocking cement at the door, we must wait for the cement to dry before releasing water. Place a basin or lid or other DD on the place where the water column is directly connected to the ground when the water is put in place. Waterproof Coating bags and barrels and bucket covers are useful. Packing bags are used to hold sand and block floor drains. buckets and bucket covers are used to pad the ground to prevent water flow from damaging waterproof coatings.
We need to check whether the toilet closed water test can be done. The reason is simple: nothing is done. Don't be empirical. What should we do if this test fails. There is also a problem of time. Who can afford a lot of time and be responsible for the loss caused by time problems, once successful, do not leave hidden risks.
We need to temporarily block all the water ports in the bathroom and build a 25 cm high "Hurdle" at the door. Then, we need to fill the bathroom with about 20 cm high water. The experiment should be 24 hours or more, this is the key to ensuring the quality of the toilet waterproofing project. You must carefully check whether there is leakage on the surrounding walls and floors. This ensures the operability and rationality of the closed water test.
