Causes of water leakage in toilet faucet
What should I do if the bathroom faucet leaks? The commonly used faucets in the bathroom are mainly cold and hot faucets. The water leakage situation is that the ceramic piece of the copper valve core inside the faucet is damaged, and cracks or gaps appear, so that no matter how the faucet is turned off or pressed hard, it is impossible to prevent the faucet from dripping. Generally, the best solution is to replace the copper valve core inside the faucet.
Maintenance steps of water leakage in toilet faucet
1. Prepare maintenance tools.
Before preparing to repair the bathroom faucet, you need to prepare a screwdriver (matching the screw pattern above the faucet) and a wrench for repairing the faucet.
2. Turn off the brake and take the faucet.
After the relevant maintenance tools are ready, close the main sluice at home, then remove the water stop tape from the faucet, and then use a wrench to take the whole faucet down from above the pipeline.
3. Cover the plastic cover and tighten the screws.
Generally, a plastic cover plate will be installed at the screw above the faucet to prevent water from infiltrating into the screw and causing the screw to slip. Therefore, when we are repairing the faucet, we need to pry open the plastic cover on it, and then unscrew the screws under the plastic plate with a screwdriver. Don't use brute force or violence when screwing the screws. Even if the screw is protected by a plastic cover, it will inevitably come into contact with water and be oxidized. If corrosion is found or it is difficult to loosen them, it is recommended to hold them gently back and forth against the gap in the handle when using the screwdriver.
