Sometimes when opening a tap we hear an unpleasant roar. This vibrates the edge of the rubber gasket. Remove the valve head, cut the edge of the gasket at an angle. If the whole laying is sold by more than a third, then change the part.
From the mixers (taps) runs a stream of water? This is a defect in the wall of the brass valve. Remove the valve, replace the valve with a new. Plastic models do not have such “minuses”.
From – under the tap, water (pouring of the mixer) is constantly flowing? This is the hit of rust or grains of sand in the valve saddle and gasket. Clean the gasket, turn it with the other side.
Now, if the crane is open, but the water does not go, most likely, this gasket has dried to the valve saddle body. Turn the valve, hire the gasket with a screwdriver.
Water comes from – under the flywheel? This is worn out rubber rings. Make sure this, taking off the pointer, unscrew the screw, remove the flywheel. Stop puck is all wet? Then there is no doubt: unscrew the valve head, push the puck, remove the rod in sequentially, spindle. Then clean the grooves of the rod where there were rubber rings. Then put new rings, collect everything back.
Kitchen plumbing
When choosing a sink, keep in mind that its depth is about 16 cm. Only if there is a dishwasher, take a smaller sink.
If water flows from – under the couplings with a junction of the eyeliner, then the seal in them is broken. Close water, remove the valve head. Change the winding in the pipe thread, lubricate with olifa (paint) and leave everything back.
Sometimes, regardless of the position of the regulator, water flows immediately in the shower and pour out. It seems that rings made of rubber in the spool have worn out. Remove the switch along with the nut, remove the hinge with a check valve. Now extract the spool and change the rings to new rings.
Water flows constantly in the toilet? This traction does not fit the saddle well, because sand, rusty rusted on their surface. Lower the water several times to try to wash off the excess.
