What should I do if the faucet keeps dripping?

The faucet is a common hardware in life, and it is a must-have in every household. But after using it for a long time, the faucet often drips water when it is not closed tightly, the water output becomes smaller, and there is noise. Today, the faucet manufacturer Jianfa Sanitary Ware is here to teach you some maintenance methods taught by the master, it is very simple!

First, the solution to the dripping water from the faucet
There is a plastic gasket inside the faucet. If the faucet keeps dripping, it may be that the gasket inside is broken. We need to buy a new gasket and replace it. Of course, there are different types of faucets, and the maintenance methods are also different. Let's take the faucets with left and right switches as examples.

1. First, we prepare some tools, mainly including pliers, screwdrivers and so on.

2. Take off the screw cap on the faucet, and then use a screwdriver (driver) to disassemble.

3. Then we remove the rotating handle on the faucet to expose the spool assembly.

4. We use pliers to unscrew the spool. Then we unscrew the spool:

5. Remove the spool, we will see the structure of the spool, there is a red sealing ring inside, we can add a gasket on the sealing ring, it will have a good effect, if there is no gasket accessories According to the size of the sealing ring, it is also possible to take the inner tube of the tire and cut a circle to make a gasket.

6. Then combine them and assemble them together, reinstall them, and see if they are still dripping.

2. The water volume of the faucet becomes smaller
If there is no movement, the water volume will decrease as you use it. It may be that there is a blockage in the water pipe. Some household faucets have a filter head at the water outlet. We can check the filter head to see if there are many water holes blocked. We can use an adjustable wrench to remove the filter head, clean it and install it again.

3. The faucet is noisy
If the water pressure is too high, or the faucet handle is closed too quickly, it will easily produce noise, or there may be obstacles in the water inlet pipe, scale in the water inlet pipe, etc., which may cause noise. If the water pressure is too high, we can adjust the switch of the main valve of the household immersion; if there is debris in the water pipe, we can first close the main valve of the household water inlet, and then check and disassemble the faucet to check whether there is debris in it.
