The sprinkler hose will leak after being used for a long time. There are many reasons for shower leakage, mainly including the following.
1. If the cause of hose leakage is due to improper installation, deformation of rubber ring, uneven or too thin outlet pipe joint, mismatch between hose and shower, etc. The appropriate hose and shower head shall be selected according to the specifications, and the rubber ring shall be replaced and reinstalled.
2. If the hose breaks, it will also lead to water leakage. At this time, just replace it with a new hose. First, replace the old hose, screw the flower hose down from the shower head and both ends of the faucet by hand, and then replace it with a new shower hose, screw one end at the shower and the other end at the faucet, and screw the thread on. The method of changing shower head is very simple. You don’t need to ask a water electrician to repair it yourself.
3. The water leakage of the shower is mainly caused by the connection between its hose and the water inlet pipe, because the shower is often used, resulting in the screw cap easy to gradually loosen, rust or even fall off, resulting in the water leakage of the shower. However, the bigger problem may be that in the process of bathing, the hose is often pulled, and the range is often large, which will cause the fracture of the place where the metal hose meets the screw cap. Therefore, if the owner uses it improperly and uses too much force, it is easy to break the shower hose. Therefore, when using the shower, pay attention to handle it with care. Sprinkler hose connections are the same, with 4-point connections. If water leakage is the problem of gaskets, plumbing hardware stores generally have gaskets. It is good to use silica gel, which is durable, and the quality of rubber is poor.
In order to avoid the problem of water leakage of shower hose, pay more attention to maintenance when using it at ordinary times. When using the shower, you should keep the hose natural stretch. After use, insert the shower on the shower rack. Never coil the metal hose around the shower faucet. Secondly, when pulling the hose, do not use too much force to prevent the dead knot between the hose and the valve body joint, and avoid the hose fracture. Finally, the surface of the shower should be cleaned regularly to prevent dirt from accumulating inside the hose, which will not only produce peculiar smell, but also cause inconvenience when we use it. The stains on the surface of the shower can be cleaned with detergent or special cleaning agent, but do not use corrosive things to avoid damaging the shower head surface. The hard stains on the shower surface should not be scraped with sharp knives as far as possible, and can be soaked in water for a long time.
