First, what are the precautions for the use of faucets
1. All impurities in the pipeline should be completely removed during installation. Avoid spool damage, blocking, plugging and leakage. At the same time, the surface should be cleaned so that there are no building material residues.
2, for any kind of water nozzle products in use, there is no need to use too much force when switching, just gently twist or flick. Even the traditional faucet does not need to spend a lot of effort to screw. In particular, do not use the handle as a handrail to support or use. The products equipped with screen cover for the water outlet should be disassembled and washed after a period of use to remove impurities. Products equipped with hose should be careful to keep the hose often in a natural stretch state to avoid breaking.
3. The metal hose of the shower head of the bathtub faucet should be kept in a natural stretch state, and do not coil it around the faucet when not in use. At the same time, when in use or not in use, pay attention to the joint between the hose and the valve body do not form a dead Angle, so as not to break or damage the hose.
4, after the use of the water nozzle will sometimes occur incomplete closure, leakage, loose handle, loose connection leakage and other phenomena, under normal circumstances, consumers can solve their own.
5, faucet cleaning precautions:
(1) Do not wipe the surface of the faucet with hard objects such as steel balls, because the steel balls are hard and easy to scratch the surface of the faucet.
(2) It is best to clean with neutral cleaning agent, acid and alkaline cleaning agents are not suitable for faucet cleaning.
(3) After cleaning the faucet, you should use a dry non-hair towel (glass cleaning is the same) to wipe the remaining water on the surface to avoid scaling.
Second, how to install the faucet
First of all, prepare the installation tools, check whether the supporting parts are complete before installation, common faucet spare parts are: hose, rubber washer, shower, water, kidnapper, decorative cap and so on.
1. Installation of single-hole basin faucet
When buying a single handle basin faucet, you should pay attention to the diameter of the nozzle, most of the market belongs to the hard pipe water, so you should pay attention to the height of the upper nozzle, from the basin down 35 minutes is the most appropriate. When installing, it is necessary to select a special Angle valve, and the Angle valve must be fixed with the hot and cold water pipe of the wall. When you find that there is a distance between the Angle valve and the water pipe on the tap, buy a special extension pipe to connect. Remember, do not use other water pipes to connect, because if the water pressure is large, it is easy to fall off, water leakage, and cause losses to you. If the inlet pipe is too long than the outlet pipe, you can cut off the part according to your needs, and the Angle is not suitable, you can bend it to the position you need. Remember: Do not bend hard to 90 degrees or greater. When installing the basin to water, please do not forget to buy the small interface of the tap (tap short). Please don’t forget to flush the water pipe buried in the wall before you install it.
2. Installation of shower and bathtub faucets (hanging on wall)
When you buy a shower, bathtub, wall faucet, you can choose the appropriate height to bury the water pipe. The distance between hot and cold water pipes must be 15 cm. Before installation, you must not forget to flush the water pipe, so as not to have strong water quality and cause damage to the faucet.
Hidden shower and bathtub faucet: After purchasing a hidden faucet, the spool of the faucet is generally buried in the wall. Be sure to pay attention to the thickness of the bathroom wall before embedding. If the wall is too thin, the valve core will not be embedded. The plastic protective cover of the spool should not be removed easily during embedment to avoid damage to the spool by cement and other chores during embedment. In addition, when embedding the spool, we should also pay attention to the direction of the spool up and down, left and right, so as to avoid the spool being buried wrong. When the wall faucet is embedded in the water inlet pipe, the size is deviated, and the position can be calibrated with an adjustable inflection.
3. Installation of thermostatic faucet
Before installing the thermostatic faucet, please check whether the water pipe is hot on the left and cold on the right, and remember not to install the hot and cold water pipes incorrectly, so as to avoid the faucet not working normally. Gas and solar water heaters cannot use thermostatic taps because the water pressure is too low. Please do not forget to install hot and cold water filters.
4. Installation of single-hole kitchen faucet
It is required to be stable, because the kitchen faucet is used more frequently, and it is easily loosened by being moved around, so the lock nut must be tightened. There are some faucets on the market for the screw to increase the nut fixed, this stabilization effect is very good, if you can solve the problem of water lifting, the future will be a popular trend.
The above is a brief introduction to the faucet, I hope it will be helpful to you.
