In在…內 Part 10第10部分 , Bennett had finished breaking up the poured concrete floor as part of repairing the floor of the new shower that was part of our home renovation just 9 months ago. ,班尼特已完成打破了澆混凝土樓板的一部分,修復地下新的淋浴,這是一部分,我們的家裝修只有9個月前。
Even before the pieces of concrete were removed from the shower floor, one of the causes of the leak were revealed.甚至前件具體的被拆除,從淋浴樓的原因之一,洩漏被發現。
In fact, even before any of the concrete shower floor was broken up, the second cause of the leak was revealed.事實上,即使是之前的任何具體淋浴樓被打破,第二個原因,洩漏被揭發。
Now, cause #1 was the improper drain which we have already discussed.現在,事業# 1是不當的流失,我們已討論。
Cause #2 was revealed only when Bennett had removed part of the wall tile at the base of the shower floor.事業# 2顯示,只有當班尼特已刪除的一部分,牆上的瓷磚在該基地的淋浴樓。
The approach taken when the shower was first built was to put the shower tiles first on the ceiling and then on the walls of the shower.所採取的做法時,淋浴首次建成是把淋浴的瓦片首先就上限,然後就堵牆的淋浴。 The shower floor was last.淋浴樓是最後一次。 Per Bennett, this was not correct.每班尼特,這是不正確的。 What should have occurred was to build the shower floor first, including the floor tile, and then tile the shower ceiling and walls.應該怎樣發生的是要建立淋浴首先發言,包括地板瓷磚,然後瓷磚淋浴天花板和牆壁。 Why?為什麼?
Well, you want to have the shower floor tiles underneath the wall tiles.那麼,您想要有淋浴地板下,牆壁瓷磚。 this is so when water from the shower rolls down the wall tile it will reach the floor tile directly. And, with a properly sloped floor that is sloped in all areas of the floor towards the drain, the natural path for the water will be to go towards the drain, even if there is insufficient silicone caulking at the point where the floor and ceiling tiles meet.這是因此,當水從淋浴卷下來,牆瓷磚將達到地板瓷磚直接和,與妥善的坡樓是傾斜的在各個領域的發言,對流失,自然路徑為水將是走向流失,即使有不足,有機矽嵌縫在點地板,天花板的瓦片和滿足。
However, in this case, with the wall tiles installed before the floor tiles, when water from the shower came down the walls it did not meet the floor tile; rather, if there was any gap in the silicone caulking between the wall and floor tiles the water would have done through the opening and into the grout.然而,在這種情況下,與牆上的瓷磚前安裝地板,當水從淋浴下來的牆壁它不符合地板瓷磚,而如果有任何的差距,在有機矽嵌縫之間的牆地磚水這樣做,通過開放和進入灌漿。 Grout is pores and eventually water would have gone through the grout and onto the concrete sub-floor.灌漿是孔隙水,並最終將經過灌漿和上具體分樓。 This is what happened to make the concrete under the floor tiles by the time Bennett broke it up into pieces damp around the far wall and the wall on the left.這是所發生的事情作出具體的根據地板由班尼特爆發的時間把它納入件潮濕的周圍遠遠牆和牆在左邊。
Now, even in this case the leaking water should have been retained by the rubber water proofing mat underneath the concrete floor.現在,即使在這種情況下,滲漏水,應已保留的橡膠防水墊下的水泥地上。 That is what it is supposed to do.這是什麼,這是假定這樣做。
Once Bennett had finished breaking up the concrete he uncovered a small hole in the rubber water proofing mat.一旦班尼特已完成打破了具體的,他發現了一個小洞,在橡膠防水墊。 Was this caused by the drilling of the concrete floor.這是造成鑽井的水泥地上。 Per Bennett, no.每班尼特,沒有。
Even if the hole was made by the drilling, once the broken concrete was removed, we found what we think is the primary reason why water that found it’s way onto the water proofing mat found it’s way out of the shower and into our basement.即使孔是由鑽井,一旦破碎混凝土已被刪除,我們發現我們的想法是首要的原因,水,發現它的方式上防水墊,發現它的出路的淋浴間和成我們的地下室。 That’s for next time.這是為明年的時間。
