The basin faucet is one of the most commonly used hardware components in the home, as frequent use can easily lead to problems. Once there is a problem with the faucet, it is inevitable to dismantle or even inspect and replace it, and once confirmed to be correct, it will involve the installation process. In fact, the installation and disassembly of basin faucets are relatively simple, but many people still do not understand the specific operating steps. This article will introduce the installation and disassembly of a basin faucet.
Installation section:
1. Take out the packaged basin faucet and check if the accessories are complete before use. Before installation, the area around the installation port should be cleaned thoroughly to ensure that there is no dirt in the water supply pipeline and to keep the inlet pipeline clean. If you don't want the faucet to scratch, be sure to wear gloves during installation.
2. Remove the rubber gasket from the faucet of the basin, insert it into the inlet pipe, and tighten it. After the first inlet hose passes through the threaded joint, the inlet end of the second inlet hose passes through the threaded joint and has been screwed into the intake duct. During the installation process, pay attention to controlling the direction, ensuring even force distribution, and then tighten the screw joints.
3. Place the two inlet hoses into the rubber pads, cover the locking nut that fixes the faucet and tighten it, then tighten the sleeve. The positions of the two imported hoses and angle valve joints should be tightened separately, but it is best not to apply too much force to avoid deformation or twisting. So three steps, the basin faucet is installed.
The above are the steps for installing the basin faucet. Next, explain the disassembly steps:
1. Separate the water inlet pipe and hose with a wrench, and control the force distribution. If the pipe is accidentally broken, it will not be good. If the water inlet pipe at home is open, you can hold the pipe with one hand and use a wrench with the other hand to separate it, which is more convenient.
2. Removing the fixed basin faucet firmware allows you to easily access the faucet. Usually, this process is very simple, but if the basin has been used for a long time, the hose will become brittle or the position of the firmware will rust, making the removal process more complicated. You can drop a few drops of oil on the rusted area and then turn on the faucet. If you can't unscrew it, try sawing off the rusted part with a saw and then unscrew the faucet.
The above are the relevant issues regarding the installation and disassembly of basin faucets. I hope this article can be helpful.
