Recently, the peak season of decoration has arrived. I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the details of decoration, but what should we pay attention to after the decoration of the house? As someone who has renovated two houses, it is best to prepare these areas during the house opening period. If you live there for a long time, you will know how worry-free it is.
1. Water and electricity aspects
This is related to potential safety hazards and must be checked. Because although no problems were found during the decoration process, it does not mean that it will be safe during use. Moreover, it is difficult to judge whether there will be no problems without all the water and electricity without a large load. Discovering problems before moving in will save you a lot of trouble.
For example, check the various switches at home to see if there are any poor contacts or sparks, including the main switch at home, to see if there is any insensitivity or slowness. It is best to prepare a charger plug and try all the sockets at home to see if there are loose connectors or no power. This can also check whether the socket is secure during the installation process. These can be eliminated through detailed inspection.
In terms of waterways, every time you go to a new house and open the windows for ventilation, try the waterways of the wash basin and sink, including whether all drains are unobstructed. Look down at each drainpipe, angle valve, and hose to see if there are signs of leakage. If If found in time, feedback will be provided to the decoration company for prompt repair.
2. In terms of walls and ceilings
Before you move in, pay attention to the shape of the ceiling in your home, especially the joints of the gypsum boards. If the humidity in the early construction is very high, there will be a drying process in the later stage, which will cause thermal expansion and contraction. At the same time, cracks may occur, and if found in time, they can be repaired early. The same is true for all walls. Pay attention to the joints of the original construction holes to see if there are cracks.
Focus on observing the latex paint wall outside the kitchen and bathroom to see if there are cracks or bulges. Because if there is water in the early construction, this is the most humid place. If the moisture is too high and the home is not ventilated and dried in time, the wall outside the kitchen and bathroom will The most common problem is excessive moisture and failure to ventilate in time, resulting in saturation of water vapor, causing the wall to become soft and bulging and peeling. If found in time, repairs can be made early to avoid affecting normal life after moving in.
3. All the glue gaps in the home
After all the baseboards in the home are installed, there will be glass glue to seal the space between them and the wall. Pay attention to carefully observe whether there is any glue opening, thermal expansion and contraction, uneven dryness and humidity of the air. In this case, it is very likely that the glass glue will dry out and crack. If the problem is found, reapply the glass glue in time.
As well as the glass glue in the gaps of all wooden doors and windows, pay attention to see if there are any cracks. You can check the gap glass glue in the kitchen and bathroom one by one. The same is true for all places where seams are used. If you find problems when you are not moving in, have them repaired in time, otherwise it will be very troublesome for the furniture to be repaired later.
4. All custom woodwork at home
Pay attention to the cabinets in the home to see if all cabinet doors open and close normally, and whether the cabinet body is deformed; whether all wardrobe cabinet doors can push, pull or open flatly, and whether the cabinet doors have any signs of knocking or deformation. The renovated house is the hardest hit area by the volatilization of formaldehyde and TVOC! Coatings, latex paints, custom cabinets, curtains, wooden floors, etc. all evaporate formaldehyde. As the temperature and indoor humidity increase, formaldehyde evaporates more violently. Although it is a colorless and odorless gas, it can irritate the nasal cavity, corneas, etc., and its evaporation period is as long as 15 years. Daily aldehyde removal in summer is also very important.
In addition to frequently opening windows for ventilation, I also bought an air purifier at home three months in advance to specifically remove aldehydes. After all, there are uncertainties in relying solely on dilution by natural ventilation, and air purifiers are specialized in removing aldehydes. . The b-MOLA air purifier I purchased at that time can "chemically decompose" formaldehyde, preventing formaldehyde from remaining indoors and rebounding.
Because the NCCO filter element can disinfect bacteria and decompose formaldehyde, you only need to replace the filter that absorbs dust pollen, PM2.5, and fine hair every day, and the cost of consumables is very low. After the HEPA filter intercepts bacteria, the active oxygen generator inside b-MOLA will release electric current to contact the air to generate active oxygen. The active oxygen can destroy the bacterial structure and make the bacteria inactive. Formaldehyde enters the b-MOLA body and passes through the NCCO purification filter layer. The active oxygen released by the active oxygen generator can catalytically decompose the formaldehyde into harmless substances together with the catalytic substances in the filter element.
This is the most advanced aldehyde removal method I have seen on the market. After decomposition, it will not cause secondary pollution. Moreover, the filter element will not be lost during normal use and can be used for 6-12 years. It only needs to replace the HEPA filter regularly, which is very cost-effective! It can be used for long-term use to remove formaldehyde and purify odors. In addition to removing formaldehyde from new houses, it is also suitable for daily formaldehyde removal in summer and adsorption and filtering of impurity particles. It is a "magic tool for house control".
In short, the above is my personal experience. It is really effective and has no worries. Have you learned these skills before moving into a new house? Thank you for your likes and suggestions for collection.
