Nowadays, various types of sanitary plumbing hardware accessories on the market have various types and different functions, which make many consumers pay attention. Taking the most common faucets as an example, there are many appearances of faucets on the market, and the surface sealing is very good. In addition to the brand and price, it is difficult for consumers to truly understand the internal structure of the faucet and the valve core when purchasing. The quality of the situation. So how do you choose a faucet with better quality without opening the faucet? How do you do a good job of maintaining it and extending its service life on weekdays?
A: The Tips When You Buy 1. Look at the appearance: The chrome plating process on a good faucet is very particular about the process. Generally, it takes several steps to complete it. Resolving a faucet depends on its brightness. The smoother and brighter the surface, the better the quality.
2. Turn the handle: When the faucet turns the handle, there is no excessive clearance between the faucet and the switch, and the opening is easy and unrestrained. Poor quality taps not only have large gaps, but also have a large sense of obstruction.
3. Listen to the sound: The leading material is the most difficult to distinguish. A good faucet is cast copper as a whole and it sounds boring when struck. If the sound is very brittle, it must be stainless steel, and the quality will be worse.
4. Recognition Mark: If you can't tell, you can choose a regular brand. General regular goods have manufacturer's brand identity, and some non-regular products or some quality products often only stick some paper labels, and even without any mark, must pay attention to when purchasing.
II: Maintenance Precautions If the faucet is selected, improper maintenance can affect its service life. This is also the most troublesome thing for many people. The frequency of use of the faucet is quite high. Basically, the faucet is used every day in daily life. With such a high frequency of use, how can the faucet be maintained so that it can last longer? In fact, this is not a difficult task. As long as the correct installation, use, and maintenance of the faucet are used, the actual service life of the faucet can be extended and it can always be bright as new.
1. When the gas temperature is lower than zero, if you find that the handle of the water tap has an abnormal feeling, you must use hot water to shower the sanitary product until it feels normal. Otherwise, it will affect the service life of the valve core.
2. The phenomenon of water dripping after the faucet is turned off is due to the presence of water in the cavity after the faucet is closed. This is a normal phenomenon. If there is a dripping situation for more than ten minutes, it is a leak, indicating that the product has quality problems.
3. As the water contains trace amounts of carbonic acid, it will easily form scale on the metal surface and cause scale corrosion on the faucet surface, which will affect the cleaning and service life of the faucet. So always use a soft cotton cloth or sponge with neutral soap water to wipe the surface of the faucet, (Caution: do not wipe with corrosive or acidic substances), then dry the surface with a soft cloth. Do not use metal filaments or scouring pads with hard particles. In addition, must not hit with the hard object so as to damage the surface of the nozzle.
4. Do not use too much force to switch the tap. Gently turn the tap. Even traditional taps don't need to be screwed to death. In particular, do not use the handle as a handrail to support or use it. Many people are accustomed to making certain efforts to close the tap after using the faucet. This is very undesirable. This will not only prevent water leakage, but will also cause damage to the sealing valve, leading to lax closure.
5. Smaller water flow to clear impurities. In the case of water pressure not lower than 0.02mpa, if the amount of water found is reduced, it may be blocked inside the faucet. The solution is to use a wrench to gently unscrew the water nozzle screen cover at the water outlet of the faucet. After cleaning the impurities, carefully install it. Generally, it can be restored.
