First, the advantages and disadvantages of stainless steel faucets
Advantages:
1, long service life. After the actual test, its life can be up to a hundred years, during this period hardly need special maintenance treatment, solve the past faucet replacement and maintenance cumbersome, economic and environmental protection, clean and convenient.
2, the production material without lead. There is no exudating substance, no odor, to ensure the quality of the water is healthy, sanitary, and does not pollute the water quality. At the same time, stainless steel faucets do not need electroplating in production, which greatly reduces the harm to the environment, there is no need to worry about the plating falling off, and the surface polishing treatment is also relatively small.
3, after polishing treatment. The appearance has a silver luster, beautiful, smooth and delicate feel, not easy to rust, and always new; After advanced process casting, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, with good physical properties.
Cons:
1. There are toxic elements. Without lead does not mean completely healthy, stainless steel contains chromium, nickel and other elements, chromium is toxic, will damage the body DNA, liver, kidney, etc., there are carcinogenic hazards, and will cause genetic mutations. In addition, when the water is sterilized with chlorine, the internal isotopes will assimilate and corrode the faucet.
2, the production process is complex. The technical level is high, the process is not mature, there are not many domestic manufacturers with a certain scale, and the ensuing price is relatively high.
Second, how to maintain stainless steel faucets
1, in the installation, we need to avoid it and hard objects appear direct impact or bump, also can not cement, glue and other sticky substances on its surface, so as not to damage the faucet surface coating luster. If the stainless steel faucet is to be used in a new house, there may be gravel impurities in the water, we must remove the debris in the water pipe before installation, and the water can continue to install the stainless steel faucet until the water quality becomes clear.
2, usually when we use, we should gently open and close, should not be too hard, we only need to follow its opening direction, gently twist the faucet can be used. After use, we should wipe the surface of the stainless steel faucet clean, so as not to rust the surface and affect its gloss. If the water pressure of the other faucets is normal, and the water of a certain faucet is not smooth, then we will remove the net cover at the faucet outlet and clean it.
After the above introduction, everyone knows what advantages and disadvantages of stainless steel faucets? Usually, we should pay attention to the maintenance of stainless steel faucets when using them, and clean them regularly to extend the service life of the faucets.
