What to do if the water faucet is reduced?

When you install the faucet and use it for a period of time, you will find that water stains are prone to remain on the surface of the faucet. No matter how high the faucet is, it will become overshadowed. In addition, the faucet will also have internal blockage problems such as reduced water output or a water fork. Therefore, we must frequently clean and maintain the faucet.

Clean both inside and outside

According to professionals, if you want to clean the electroplated surface of a copper faucet, you can scrub it with boiling water and detergent, or you can directly use some strong degreasing and decontamination detergent to clean it.
Just wipe the surface with a damp cloth or sponge dipped in a small amount of special detergent, and then wipe it dry with a clean cloth or rinse it off with water.
Although the chrome-plated layer of the faucet claims to be corrosion-resistant and non-rusting, incorrect cleaning methods can still cause abnormal wear of the faucet. Do not wipe the surface of the faucet with steel balls and other hard objects, because the steel balls are very hard and will easily scratch the surface of the faucet.
Generally speaking, the faucet should be cleaned with a neutral detergent instead of a strong acid or alkaline detergent. Dip toothpaste with a soft toothbrush or wipe with a scouring pad dipped in toothpaste, which can also remove limescale and oil stains.
In addition, many people only notice the surface of the faucet when cleaning the faucet, but the inside of the faucet is actually more important. If the water output of the faucet decreases or the water output forks, it may be caused by the blockage of the bubbler. The bubbler can be removed, soaked in vinegar, clean the debris with a small brush or other tools, and then reinstalled.

Maintenance: Don't use too much force

The maintenance of the faucet is very important, you can master the following four principles:
1. Don't switch the faucet too hard, just turn it gently.
2. The metal hose of the shower head of the bathtub faucet should be kept in a natural stretched state, and do not coil it on the faucet when not in use.
3. After using for a period of time, if you find that the water output is reduced, or even the water heater is turned off, you can gently unscrew the screen cover at the water outlet of the faucet to remove impurities, and it will generally return to the original state.
4. Invite experienced and qualified professionals to carry out construction and installation.
