Dressing machine faucet matching - What should I do if the faucet of the washing machine is leaking? The combination of the
washing machine faucet is usually blocked by the washing machine after installation, so when choosing to purchase it, it is important to be practical.
Installation method:
The installation of the washing machine faucet can only be higher than or even the washing machine water inlet hole. Even if there is a hose for connection, once the faucet is installed lower than the water inlet hole, the water pressure will become smaller and affect normal use.
Specification selection:
Some brands of washing machines need a special washing machine faucet to connect, so you must understand it clearly when purchasing a washing machine to avoid water leakage, water pipe breakage and other problems.
What should I do if the faucet of the washing machine leaks?
1. Abrasion problems of axial gaskets in the faucet.
If the faucet is tied tightly, the water leakage may be due to water leakage at the outlet, which is generally caused by wear of the axial gasket in the faucet. In this case, you can use pliers to loosen the cap and remove it, use a clip to remove the axial gasket, and replace it with a new axial gasket.
2. Problem of faucet water-stop tape.
The faucet of the washing machine is leaking. The usual problem is that the water stop tape that ties the faucet part (setting screw) is damaged. In this case, Wuhan owners just need to use wrench to remove the faucet and rewind the new water-stop tape in the fixing screws.
3. Wear of triangular seals in the gland.
In addition, it may be a leak in the lower gap of the faucet tether due to wear of the triangular gasket in the gland. In this case, you can loosen the screw and remove the tether head, then loosen the veil, then remove the triangular seal on the inner side of the veil and replace it with a new one.
4. If you add more control, the entire faucet will still leak.
Some water leakage problems have nothing to do with the faucet itself, which may be caused by improper installation of the water hose and faucet body. In addition, it may also be caused by problems such as aging, unstable water pressure or corrosion of the water hose that supplies the faucet. Once the water hose cracks, bursts and other problems occur, the consequences will be very serious. Therefore, experts recommend that the water hose be inspected or replaced every 1-2 years or so.
5. Problem of loose cover nuts.
In addition, loose cover nuts may also cause water leakage at the joints. You can re-tie the cover nut or replace it with a new U-shaped gasket.
