Options for installing a washing machine in a small bathroom
One of the problems of owners of small apartments is the installation of equipment. This applies not only to small-sized housing: even in old three-room apartments, a bathroom can be combined with a bathroom.
Therefore, the issue of installing various equipment is quite acute. It is best to buy a washing machine with a vertical load. On OLX, there are many offers to sell such equipment. But, as a rule, the functionality of such an installation is limited: only models with front loading have the maximum set of capabilities.
Installation options
If the model with vertical loading is not suitable for functionality, there are several ways to install a washing machine with front loading. Among them:
No matter how compact the bathroom is, you can always find a place to install such household appliances. For example, the place under the countertop is often left unused. This is where the home appliances can be placed. Firstly, space is saved, and secondly, communication is simplified.
Other installation options
A similar option is to use free space under the sink. But not all plumbing is suitable for this. There are special models of washbasins in which the drain is located on the side.
Very often there are various niches in the bathroom. Most often, they are given space for a small cabinet, installation of a boiler. But the lower part of this niche can be used for the washing machine. The niche itself is closed with doors (if there is enough space) or roller shutters that simply open up. Sometimes ordinary roll curtains are used as a door.
If the space is very small, the washing machine can be installed even on the wall. Naturally, the wall should be strong (not drywall), and the appliances themselves should have a small thickness. On OLX you can find models with a small thickness, which are great for small bathrooms combined with a bathroom.
