How to buy Shower Column

1. Touch material

The material determines the quality. You can touch the shower column to feel the material and feel of the surface. You can also check whether the sealing part of the shower column is smooth and whether there are cracks in the connection. These are all areas that need attention. Plastic materials. Now engineering plastics have good performance, strength and heat resistance. Plastic material has the advantage of affordable price, but its disadvantage is that it is easy to change when heated. Stainless steel material has the advantages of wear resistance, no rust and affordable price. The advantages of aluminum alloy and aluminum magnesium alloy are not afraid of wear, lightweight and durable. The disadvantage is that it may turn black after a long time. The price of copper is more expensive than that of stainless steel, and the product positioning is higher than that of stainless steel.

2. Height selection

Generally, the standard height of the shower column is 2.2M, which can be determined according to the individual height. Generally, the faucet is 70 ~ 80cm from the ground, the height of the lifting rod is 60 ~ 120cm, the length of the connector between the faucet and the shower column is 10 ~ 20cm, and the height of the shower from the ground is 1.7 ~ 2.2m. Consumers need to fully consider the size of the bathroom space when purchasing.

3. Detail accessories view

Pay more attention to the accessories. You can see whether there are holes or cracks at the joints. If there are trachoma, water will seep after water is connected, and serious fracture will occur.

Before purchase, ask the water pressure required for the product, otherwise it will not work after installing the shower column. You can check the water pressure first. If the water pressure is insufficient, you can add a pressurizing motor.

Please pay attention to the following items during the installation of shower column:

1. The height of the cold and hot water pipes of the shower column from the ground should be 85 cm to 1 m. if the height of the shower column cannot be raised or lowered, it must be more than 1.1

2. The distance between the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe is 15cm in the national standard, and the tolerance within 2 is allowed. However, if mediation is required, both sides must be adjusted at the same time and the same height must be maintained. If the height is different, the rigid installation is likely to cause deformation and water leakage of the sealing ring, cracking of the connecting nut and even cracking of the body

3. Before the installation of shower column: the water valve must be opened to flush the sundries in the water pipe.

4. Note that all nut interfaces need to be padded with the original rubber gasket, otherwise it is easy to cause dripping and water leakage.
