Each bathroom space differs from the others not only because of the size, but also for the provision of attacks, colors and materials. Based on the size of objects it is important to study and carefully evaluate the overall dimensions and the height of the sinksto make the room liveable.
The standard height of the sink
Normally, the height of a standard bathroom sink for a perfect use is around 80-85 centimeters. But, each product has its own specific characteristics and the installation height depends even on the type of sink.The height of the countertop sinks, for example, is very different compared to products already equipped with a support column or free-standing washbasins.
The height of suspended bathroom sink
The considerations made for standard sinks also apply to suspended washbasins, ie those fixed directly to the walls. Also these models are generally placed at a height of about 85 cm from the ground.
The height of the countertop washbasin
Standing sanitaryware must be placed on a support shelf: for this reason, the issue must be addressed before the choice of furniture. Despite everything, there are no fixed dimensions that suggest the maximum or minimum height: that, in fact, depends mainly on the typology choosen and its height. Generally, the sink is positioned between 80 to 95 cm from the ground.
The height of the sink drain
Another issue, finally, regard the height of the sink drain pipe. A fundamental aspect because, if placed too low, makes installation more difficult: the risk is being unable to connect it to the siphon. In this case, therefore, it’s better to place the drain at least 45 centimeters from the ground.
