The basin faucet is used frequently and is used every day in daily life. In such a high-frequency use state, how can we maintain the basin faucet to increase its service life? In fact, this is not a difficult task. The following will teach you that as long as the installation, use and maintenance are correct, the actual service life of the basin faucet can not only be extended, but also can always keep it bright and new.
1. When the air temperature is below 0 degrees, if the handle of the basin faucet feels abnormal, it must be scalded with hot water until it feels normal before it can be used. Otherwise, it will affect the service life of the faucet valve core.
2. After the faucet is closed, there will be dripping, which is because the Kaiping faucet is caused by residual water in the faucet cavity, which is a normal phenomenon. If it is long-term, dripping for more than ten minutes, it is a leak, indicating that the product has quality problems.
3. Because water contains trace amounts of carbonate, it is easy to form scale on the metal surface after evaporation, which will corrode the faucet surface and affect the cleaning and service life of the basin faucet. Therefore, after using the faucet, you should often use a soft cotton cloth or sponge to wipe the faucet surface with neutral soapy water (note: do not use corrosive or acidic items to wipe), and then wipe the surface dry with a soft cloth. Avoid using metal wire balls or scouring pads with hard particles.
4. Do not use too much force to turn the basin faucet on and off, just turn it gently. Even for traditional faucets, you don't need to use a lot of force to twist it. In particular, do not use the handle as a handrail for support or use. Many people are accustomed to deliberately close the faucet after using it, which is very undesirable. Not only will it not prevent water leakage, but it will damage the sealing valve, resulting in the faucet not being closed tightly.
5. Remove impurities when the water flow becomes smaller. Under the condition that the water pressure is not less than 0.02mpa, if the water output is reduced, it may be that the faucet is blocked. The solution is to use a wrench to gently unscrew the water spout screen cover at the water outlet of the faucet, clean the impurities and then carefully install it. Generally, it can be restored to its original state.
