Smelly bathroom
If the smell is coming from the toilet, it is usually due to improper installation. So the solution is to dismantle the toilet again and make sure the connector seal has been installed properly. Apart from the wrong installation, the smell in the toilet can also be caused by various things. For example, the lack of air circulation in the bathroom. To fix this, by installing an exhaust fan that can be made towards the outside or the ceiling of the room. But don’t forget, often clean the exhaust fan which is often covered in dust, so that it functions optimally.
Slippery floor
There are many reasons for the floor in the bathroom to be slippery. For example, standing water also triggers the growth of moss on the floor surface. Stagnant water can be caused by the non-ideal slope of the floor, making it difficult for water to flow into the drainage hole. This puddle causes the floor to be slippery, moldy, and mossy. To overcome this, the previous floor slope must be changed. Ideally, the floor should have a slope of 1-3 cm from the farthest corner of the bathroom towards the drainage hole or about 1% of the length and width of the floor. Or, to prevent slippery floors, you can use rubber flooring. The nature of this floor is elastic and more friendly to the feet and will prevent the user from slipping easily.
