How to solve the water dripping from the faucet?

2022-12-06

Sometimes, the faucet in our house has been tightened by us, but the faucet still drips water, which will waste a lot of water resources, and this dripping water will affect our rest in the dead of night. But when we removed the faucet and looked at it ourselves, we couldn't understand what went wrong, so we had to replace it with a new one. Below we will teach you a trick.

Let's close the water outlet valve first, and then remove the faucet. First, look at the structure. There is a blue rubber ring on the bottom. First remove the rubber ring, and then press the top to push out the ceramic valve core inside and take it out. After that, you can remove all the parts inside. Since the water is leaking, you need to find the problem. Let's look at the valve core. There is a small gap at the position on both sides, and it is because of this gap that the water leaks.

Let's find a grinding stone or sandpaper and keep grinding to smooth the gap. After that, it will be smooth and there will be no gaps. Don't grind too hard, otherwise it will cause water leakage due to the momentum of water after grinding too thin. It's time to replace it with a new one.

The ceramic valve core is not particularly easy to be damaged. Generally, water drips because the fit is not tight. If there is no problem with the valve core, check the gasket. It may be a problem with the gasket. You only need to replace it with a gasket of the same type. , because continuous grinding may break itself, so be careful.

Remove the small screw on or behind the handle of the faucet to remove the handle attached to the body of the faucet. Some screws are hidden under metal buttons, plastic buttons, or plastic sheets, and the buttons are opened to reveal the top-mounted handle screws. You can use a wrench to loosen and remove the valve core, use a clip to take out the shaft gasket, and replace it with a new shaft gasket or replace the valve core. Reinstall the handle and put the button or disc back on. Turn the water supply back on and check for leaks.

Water leakage at the connection of the faucet base is caused by the wear of the gasket in the gland. You can loosen the screw to remove the bolt head, then loosen and remove the gland, then take out the gasket inside the gland and replace it with a new one.
