How to distinguish stainless steel and aluminum alloy shower room

The shower room is the protagonist of many sanitary ware in the bathroom, so the owner must carefully consider it when choosing a shower room. However, many consumers do not have the purchase experience in this area, which means that they lack this knowledge, so it is often difficult to choose the ideal product. There are two kinds of shower rooms on the market, one is stainless steel and the other is aluminum alloy, but how to distinguish the two? Let's take a look at the shower room below.

1. Material difference: As the name suggests, the stainless steel shower room is made of stainless steel with an outer frame, coupled with a shower room composed of tempered glass laminated glass and other hardware accessories. The material must be 304 stainless steel, while the aluminum alloy shower room is made of aluminum. The inner and outer frames are made of alloy, and the shower room is composed of glass and other hardware accessories. The main material is aluminum profiles, and the quality of aluminum materials varies from company to company.

2. Corrosion resistance: stainless steel shower room is better than aluminum alloy shower room in terms of corrosion resistance. Because, in the process of using the shower room, the shampoo, body wash or other skin cleansing products used have more or less acidity and alkalinity, and after a long time, the deposition or corners cannot be cleaned. Corrosion will also occur to materials, and stainless steel that is not resistant to corrosion will not be a problem, but aluminum alloys will have a corrosion reaction on the surface.

Besides, it is not a day or two to use a bathroom. After a long time, the oxidation reaction and corrosion of the material and the air are also much better than stainless steel. Of course, for some manufacturers, the stainless steel material is not 304, and corrosion will occur after a long time of use.

3. Appearance: the current stainless steel shower room is clean and simple and has a strong metal texture. Now the stainless steel material of color steel has been developed on the market, which has changed the process of single color tone; while the aluminum alloy shower room has more color changes and is manufactured The appearance changes more, and after electroplating is used on the aluminum alloy shower room, more fashionable features can be guaranteed.

4. In terms of thermal insulation: If the indoor conditions are the same, the thermal insulation effect of the stainless steel shower room and the aluminum alloy shower room is basically not much different.

5. Above the price: The price of the stainless steel shower room is higher than that of the aluminum alloy shower room, but the service life is much longer, and the aluminum alloy shower room is more cost-effective, so you need to pay attention to the maintenance.
