Sometimes when we use the kitchen faucet, we will find that the faucet will leak after being closed, and it will leak from the outlet of the faucet or the joint. Found that this situation, in addition to calling maintenance workers, in fact, we can solve it ourselves, is it a good way to save money, then how should we repair it? Today, Xiaobian teaches you how to prevent the faucet from leaking . good idea.
First of all, we have to prepare the tools, this is the most basic, then let's open our sleeves and do it. Tools to be used: 1 flat-blade screwdriver, 2 open movable wrench and its replacement mat , 3 infiltration lubricant.
1: Turn off the water supply and remove the small screws on the back or behind the faucet handle to remove the handle attached to the faucet body. Some screws are hidden under metal buttons, plastic buttons or plastic sheets that are snapped or screwed into the handle. Simply open the button and you will see the handle screw on the top. If necessary, use some osmotic oil like WD-40 to loosen the screws.
2: Remove the handle and look at the parts of the faucet. Use a large pliers or an adjustable wrench to remove the packing nut, taking care not to leave scratches on the metal. Rotate the spool or shaft in the same direction as when you turned the faucet to unscrew them.
3: Remove the screws that secure the washer. If necessary, use an infiltration lubricant to loosen the screws. Check the screws and spools and replace them if they are damaged.
4: Replace the old washer with a new one that is identical. Be careful of the new gasket that is almost exactly matched to the old gasket. Also note that the old gasket is either beveled or flat and replaced with the same new gasket. A gasket designed only for cold water will swell significantly when hot water flows to block the water outlet, making the hot water flow slower. Some washers work in hot and cold water, but make sure that the gasket you bought for replacement is exactly the same.
5: Fix the new gasket to the valve plug and reassemble the parts in the faucet. Rotate the spool clockwise. After the spool is in place, reinstall the packing nut. Be careful not to leave the wrench scratched on the metal.
6: Reinstall the handle and replace the button or disc. Re-open the water supply and check for leaks.
