Often the question arises about the mass of a conventional shower. Here we should mention that there is no concept of "normal" or, on the contrary, "unusual" cabin. They all have standard dimensions. Therefore, to find out first of all should be the product type and its size.
When buying a product, the customer receives at the hands of a few boxes of cardboard. The number of these boxes is affected by the type of device.
Reference! Collected shower weighs eighty to ninety kilograms. Each individual packing box reaches a weight of thirty kilo.
All these parameters are approximate, since we are not talking about a specific model.
Considering the average weight of the product, we can safely say that the purchase can be easily transported to any floor.
The dimensions of the boxes allow to place them inside the elevator without a problem.
Modern lifts capable of lifting up to 450 kg, which is much higher than the weight of the stall and the man himself. If in doubt or if there are difficulties, it can be transported separately shower box.

Why do I need to know the weight of plumbing
Actually, what you need to know so much weighs plumbing fixtures? If any, to such information? It is necessary to know, and here's why:
- the exact mass of information makes it possible to calculate the forces during transport;
- weight of the device affect the requirements of fasteners and fixation;
- weight is an indicator of quality - if the product has a low weight with large dimensions, it is not stable and likely made from thin material.
That is why one should not underestimate this parameter.
How do I know how much weight is calculated pallet
Given that the shower can use a wide range of people build, it is very important to know how much weight can withstand a pallet.
Most showers are not able to withstand heavy loads - their pallets can lose shape, crack, which, respectively, affect the appearance of the product, and in the worst case, it does fails.
Overweight people is better to choose spacious cab, having a lower sump. From all variety of pallet options better to choose tselnolitevoy. He is able to withstand considerable weight, and at the same time act as a support for the cabin.

Such products consist entirely of this material. FROMamye durable trays - acrylic thickness which is six millimeters. This makes it possible to withstand the weight of up to one ton.
In other words, to determine the loads that can withstand pallets, necessary to pay attention to the material and the thickness of the material layer. Naturally, the presence of the frame is also an important factor.
