To extend the service life of the shower, you can start from many aspects such as purchase, installation, daily use and maintenance. Here are some specific suggestions:
First, choose high quality shower
1. Choose well-known brands: Give priority to shower heads of well-known brands, which usually have higher quality standards and longer service life.
2. Consider the material: stainless steel and copper shower head corrosion resistance, good pressure resistance, relatively long service life. Although the plastic shower is light and easy to install, it has poor durability and is easy to age.
3. View functional design: Choose a shower with anti-scale, easy to clean and other functional design, which can reduce daily maintenance costs and extend service life.
4. Check the warranty period and after-sales service: some brands provide extended warranty services, which can provide users with longer quality assurance.
Second, install the shower correctly
1. Away from heat source: The installation position of the shower should be as far away from heat source as possible, such as bath, boiler, etc., to reduce the damage of high temperature and ultraviolet light on the shower.
2. Reasonable layout: The installation position of the shower head should be easy to use and beautiful, and pay attention to avoid conflicts with other bathroom facilities.
3. Ensure stability: The installation of the shower head must be stable and reliable to avoid loosening or falling off during use.
Third, reasonable use of shower
1. Adjust the appropriate water temperature and water pressure: avoid using too high water temperature and too much water pressure to reduce the damage to the internal parts of the shower.
2. Gentle operation: When using the shower, the switch and adjustment device should be operated gently to avoid excessive force resulting in damage.
3. Avoid prolonged use: Although frequent use of the shower head will accelerate its wear, long-term continuous use may also lead to overheating or other problems. Therefore, it is recommended to arrange the use of time reasonably.
Fourth, regular maintenance
1. Regular cleaning: Regularly wipe the surface of the shower head with a soft cloth or sponge to remove scale and stains. At the same time, you can regularly remove the nozzle and use a soft brush or toothpick to clean the dirt in the spray hole. For hard water areas, an acidic substance such as vinegar or lemon juice can be used for cleaning.
2. Check the connection part: regularly check the connection part and sealing ring of the shower head to ensure that there is no leakage or loosening. Replace damaged seals or parts if necessary.
3. Maintain the hose state: the hose of the shower head should be kept in a natural stretch state to avoid excessive bending and winding. At the same time, pay attention to the joint of the hose and the faucet not to form a dead Angle, so as not to break or damage the hose.
4. Avoid hard objects scratching: During use and cleaning, avoid using too hard objects to scratch the shower surface to prevent scratches or wear.
Fifth, other precautions
1. Avoid self-disassembly: non-professional self-disassembly of the shower head may cause damage to the internal structure or cannot be restored to its original position, so it is recommended to be repaired and replaced by professional personnel.
2. Pay attention to water quality problems: water quality in hard water areas is easy to form scale in the shower, affecting the use effect and shortening the service life. Consider using a water softener or regularly descaling your shower head.
In summary, through the purchase of high-quality shower, correct installation, rational use and regular maintenance and other measures, can effectively extend the service life of the shower, improve the use of experience and comfort.
