In household life, the frequency of use of the faucet is very high. Basically, the faucet is used every day in daily life. Under such a high frequency of use, how can we maintain the faucet and prolong its service life?

In fact, this is not difficult. As long as the installation, use, and maintenance are done correctly, the actual service life of the faucet can be extended, and it can always be kept as bright as new.

First, the installation of the faucet

Experienced and qualified professionals should be invited for construction and installation. When installing, the faucet should try not to collide with hard objects, and do not leave cement, glue, etc. on the surface, so as not to damage the gloss of the surface coating. Pay attention to remove the debris in the pipeline and install the faucet.

Second, the use of faucets

Do not use too much force when turning on the faucet, because the pressure of the impact of the water flow is far beyond what it can bear, and turning it on too hard will easily affect its service life.

Once there is a leak, the faucet must be repaired immediately. The sealing effect of a qualified faucet is really good when it is newly put into use, but because the ceramic sealing surface is sensitive to hard impurities such as sand and stone in the water, the sealing surface is easy to wear, and dripping will occur after scratching. Moreover, once a drip occurs, the amount of drip will continue to increase quickly, forming a line flow, so once a leak is found, the leaking faucet should be repaired as soon as possible.

Under normal water pressure, after using it for a period of time, it is found that the water output decreases, and even the water heater turns off. You can gently unscrew the screen cover at the water outlet of the faucet to remove impurities, and generally it can be restored to its original state.

Third, the maintenance of the faucet

It is also a better way to install a constant pressure and constant current high-efficiency automatic water saver. After setting up the water saving device, the faucet can maintain a relatively stable flow rate under high water pressure, which truly turns the idea of limiting flow and saving water into reality. The faucet does not need to be adjusted during the opening process. It also reduces the erosion of sand and stones in the water on the ceramic sealing surface and prolongs the service life of the faucet.

Finally, for the stains on the faucet, it should be cleaned with detergent as soon as possible, because the accumulation of stains can easily act as the electrolyte where the faucet and the water pipe are in contact, causing corrosion to varying degrees on both the water pipe and the faucet. Stains should be cleaned up in a timely manner.
