The cleaning and maintenance precautions for basin faucets include the following three points:
1. Gently open and close
Don't use too much force on the faucet switch, just turn it gently. The metal hose of the shower should be kept in a natural stretch state, and should not be folded into a dead corner to avoid breaking.
2. Regular cleaning
Even high-quality faucet products must rely on proper cleaning and maintenance to function to their full potential. The correct way is to wipe with a neutral detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid alcohol-based and acidic cleaners when cleaning, as they can damage the finish of the faucet.
3. Develop good cleaning and maintenance habits
(1) Since the water contains a small amount of carbonic acid, it is easy to form scale on the metal surface and cause corrosion to the surface of the faucet. Therefore, the surface of the faucet should be wiped frequently with a soft cotton cloth or sponge dipped in neutral soap, and then dry the surface with a soft cloth. . Clean the water outlet with a screen to remove impurities and scale in the screen.
(2) After showering, it is best to clean the water drops in the shower head and hang it up. Do not place the shower head directly on the switch to form a limescale. If the scale has accumulated, gently scrape it off with a pencil tip or chopsticks, and then wipe it off with a rag.
(3) For scale, rust, etc. on the faucet, just use a damp cloth or sponge dipped in a little special detergent to wipe the surface, then dry with a clean cloth or rinse with water. Dip in toothpaste with a soft toothbrush or wipe with a scouring pad to remove scale and oil stains and make the surface of the faucet clean and shiny.
(4) Many people only pay attention to the surface of the faucet when cleaning the faucet. In fact, the inside of the faucet is more important. If the water output from the faucet decreases or water flows through, the aerator may be clogged. The aerator can be removed, soaked in vinegar, cleaned of debris with a small brush or other tools, and then reinstalled.
