The shower faucet is one of the most frequently used equipment in the bathroom, and its material has an important impact on the service life. Different materials have different characteristics and durability, so choosing the right material is very important to ensure the service life of the shower faucet.
First of all, stainless steel is a common shower faucet material. Stainless steel shower faucet has the characteristics of strong corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and wear resistance, so it can effectively prolong the service life of the shower faucet. In addition, the stainless steel material also has good antibacterial properties, which can reduce the growth of bacteria and keep the faucet clean and hygienic.
Second, brass is another common shower faucet material. Brass has excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and can withstand long-term use without being easily damaged. In addition, brass also has good thermal conductivity, which can conduct heat quickly, so that users can enjoy warm water quickly.
However, some cheap shower faucets may be made of plastic or low-quality alloy. These materials usually do not have good durability, and are susceptible to wear, corrosion or deformation, which affects the normal use of the shower faucet. Therefore, when purchasing a shower faucet, try to choose high-quality materials to ensure its service life and performance.
In short, the material of the shower faucet plays an important role in its service life. High-quality materials such as stainless steel and brass can provide long life and good durability, while low-quality plastic or alloy materials can easily lead to damage and poor performance of the faucet. When purchasing a shower faucet, consumers should choose the appropriate material to ensure that it can be used stably for a long time and provide a good experience.
Because the shower faucet is used more frequently, it will cause the scale to accumulate too fast. This will cause the shower to be blocked and affect the normal use. So in order not to let the shower faucet wear out too quickly, we can extend its service life through the following maintenance precautions.
1. We should avoid letting water volatilize on the metal surface of the shower faucet. Otherwise, a water scale will form on the metal surface after the water evaporates. The ideal cleaning technique is to rinse the faucet with clean water, and then use a soft cotton cloth to dry all the water on the metal surface of the faucet, wipe it gently, and do not rub it vigorously.
2. If a lot of cleaning work is required, general stains can be cleaned with toothpaste or special detergents. The rough mask and deposits on some faucets can be cleaned with non-friction solutions. Do not use any friction solutions. And cleaning agents for corrosive substances. After cleaning, please use clean water to remove all the lotion and dry it with a soft cotton cloth.
3. For the maintenance of the shower faucet, the most important point is to slowly open and close during use, so that it will not form the accumulation of scale, and at the same time achieve the purpose of maintenance. The double-handle faucet should not be closed too tightly, otherwise, the stopcock will fall off, causing the situation that it cannot be closed and the water cannot be stopped.
4. If there are stains and scales in the shower faucet during the cleaning process, the correct stain remover should be selected, and steel balls should not be used during cleaning. This is to avoid scratches on the surface of the shower faucet. Marks will not only affect the aesthetics, but also shorten the service life, but also fail to achieve the purpose of maintenance.
5. Wall-mounted shower faucets are generally more prominent, so be careful not to bump or press them when handling items. In particular, some shower faucets have a thick surface electroplating
