At present, there are many brands and product types of showers on the market, and inexperienced owners often fall into misunderstandings when purchasing showers, so what misunderstandings should we pay attention to when choosing showers? The following is a detailed introduction to the relevant knowledge of shower purchase.
Three Misunderstandings in Shower Selection
Misunderstanding 1: Close the door if it is strong
When some consumers buy a shower, they think that the harder the switch is closed, the tighter it is, the better the effect of preventing water leakage, and the more water can be saved. In fact, this will not only prevent water leakage, but also represent problems with the structure or quality of the sealing valve. In addition, many users will force the shower to close more firmly when closing the shower, which will cause damage to the sealing valve and cause the shower to close more loosely.
When purchasing a shower switch, pay attention to the tightness of the switch, so that it can be easily controlled. In addition, when the shower is used daily, the switch does not need to be too hard, which will easily damage the switch of the product. Friends who are used to this kind of behavior must get rid of this consciousness.
Misunderstanding 2: Do not change the shower if it can be used
Many consumers think that shower products are once and for all after installation, as long as they are not damaged, they do not need to be replaced. Moreover, the water output of long-used showers has decreased, and consumers think that they can save a certain amount of water. In fact, the reason for the low water output of the shower is that there is dirt inside, which affects the quality of water. Therefore, it is not necessary to replace the shower when it can be used.
It is recommended that when purchasing shower products, you should pay attention to the service life and production date, and choose a shower with a relatively long service life and relatively high cost performance, so that you can gain the dominance, and the replacement of the shower will not cause too much loss. In addition, if the water output of the shower at home starts to decrease, it must be cleaned regularly and replaced in time, otherwise it will not only fail to save water, but also affect the safe water use at home.
Myth 3: The higher the price, the better the quality
Many consumers think that the more expensive the product, the better, and as an ordinary consumer, there is no need to pursue overly high-end products. Some consumers believe that water saving is a high technology, and a shower with good water saving performance must be expensive. In fact, some products are likely to be inflated in price. Consumers should not blindly ask for expensive products, thinking that imported products are only high-end, and they only choose expensive products.
Not only expensive or imported showers are of good quality and water-saving. Some domestic brands also have many low-cost water-saving showers. These showers are equipped with special water-saving devices at the tail threaded joints, which save water by 20%-50% compared with ordinary showers.
How to choose a shower head?
Take a look: see if the shower body and the electroplating layer on the surface are smooth and smooth. This is because, in a humid environment such as a bathroom, the surface of the shower is generally chrome-plated, but the same is chrome-plated, but the process is very different. According to the merchant’s introduction, a good pipe body is made of all copper, and the surface has to be polished, polished, dust-removed, nickel-plated, chrome-plated, etc. to ensure that it will not turn black or blister during use. Generally speaking, from From the surface of the shower, the brighter and more delicate the naked eye can see, the better the coating process.
Two grips: Hold the tube body with your hand to judge the quality of the material. The same chrome-plated shower, some unscrupulous merchants will use cast iron pipes to pretend to be copper pipes. A simple way to judge is to hold the pipe body with your hand and release it after 2 or 3 seconds. If the mist on the pipe body If it stays around for a long time, it is likely to be a cast iron pipe. If the pipe body hardly changes after the hand is removed, it can basically be judged to be a copper pipe. In addition, the knocking sound of the copper pipe body is crisp and clear, while the sound of the cast iron pipe body is low and dull. Knocking is also a method to judge the material of the shower pipe body.
Three questions: As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the way. Whether the quality of the shower is good or not is the most important place where you can’t see it, so you must ask the merchant about the material and service life of the shower switch valve core. The valve core of the shower switch is made of ceramics with extremely high hardness that has been fired by extraordinary technology. Life is inconvenient.
Four picks: When selecting, let the shower head slant to discharge water. If the water discharge from the spray hole at the top is obviously small or there is no water at all, it means that the internal design of the shower head is very general. Less than the corresponding comfortable experience.
The above are the misunderstandings of shower purchase and the method of shower purchase to share with you. I hope it can be helpful to everyone.
