Why does it make sense to buy a Gartendusche made of V4A, and when is a Gartendusche made of V2A sufficient?
When is a stainless steel Gartendusche made of V2A sufficient?
V2A is already a high-quality, rust-resistant stainless steel that is perfectly adequate for many outdoor areas. A stainless steel Gartendusche made of V2A is particularly suitable:
For gardens and normal outdoor areas
- If a stainless steel Pooldusche is not permanently exposed to moisture, salt or aggressive chemicals.
- In regions without extreme weather conditions or high humidity.
For pool areas with fresh water
- As long as the stainless steel Pooldusche does not come into constant contact with chlorinated water or high humidity, V2A steel will stand up without any problems.
For normal use
- If the Gartendusche stainless steel freestanding is dismantled in winter or well protected, V2A is sufficient.
When should you choose a stainless steel Gartendusche made of V4A?
V4A is even more resistant as it also contains molybdenum, which protects it well against corrosion, salt and other aggressive chemicals. A shower made of V4A is ideal:
For coastal regions with salty air
- If you live near the sea, V4A stainless steel is better, as salt can corrode V2A stainless steel in the long term.
For pool areas with salt water or high chlorine content
- Saltwater pools or heavily chlorinated water cause V2A stainless steel to corrode much more quickly - V4A is the better choice here.
For particularly humid or extreme weather conditions
- If the pool Aussendusche stainless steel is exposed to high humidity or winter conditions.
For a particularly long service life with minimal maintenance
- If you want as little work as possible and maximum durability, V4A is the better choice in the long term.
Conclusion: Which stainless steel variant is the right one?
- V2A stainless steel is sufficient if the shower is located in a normal garden without salty air or aggressive chemicals.
- V4A stainless steel is worthwhile if you live in a coastal region, if the shower often comes into contact with salt water or chlorinated water or if you want it to be particularly resistant.
If you are looking for a long-lasting investment and maximum resistance is important to you, V4A stainless steel is always the better choice. Otherwise, V2A already offers very good quality for most applications.
