2023-02-11
Many people only find out that there are many problems in the house after the renovation is completed, especially for frequently used items such as Kitchen Faucets. Once there is a problem, it will cause a lot of trouble, so you must do your homework before purchasing. 1. According to the type of structure For the convenience of use, the Kitchen Faucet should be higher and the spout should be longer, so that it can extend above the drain without splashing water. If there is a hot water line in the kitchen, a double faucet is a better choice. In order to meet various usage needs, most kitchen faucets can now be rotated left and right. In recent years, the new pull-out faucet can pull out the faucet, which is convenient for cleaning to all corners of the sink, but the disadvantage is that one hand must be free to hold the faucet when pulling out the faucet, and the faucet of some faucets It can rotate 360° up and down.
2. According to the material The material of the kitchen faucet is generally brass, which is the more common pure copper faucet on the market. However, due to the characteristics of the kitchen environment, pure copper faucets are not necessarily a good choice. All pure copper faucets have electroplating on the outer layer, and the function of electroplating is to prevent internal corrosion and rust. There is a lot of oily fume in the kitchen, plus the greasy and detergent on hands when washing dishes, it is often necessary to clean the faucet. If the cleaning method is not correct, it is likely to damage the electroplating layer of the faucet, causing the faucet to be corroded and rusted. If you want to choose an all-copper kitchen faucet, you must choose high-quality electroplating, otherwise it will easily cause the faucet to rust and corrode. Now some manufacturers use high-quality 304 stainless steel to make faucets. Compared with pure copper faucets, high-quality stainless steel faucets are lead-free, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, free from corrosion, do not release harmful substances, and will not pollute tap water sources. features. This is very important for drinking water in the kitchen; and the stainless steel faucet does not require electroplating, is not easy to rust, and its hardness and toughness are more than twice that of copper products, so it is very convenient to clean. However, due to the high difficulty of processing stainless steel, the current high-quality stainless steel faucets are usually relatively expensive. 3. The length of the faucet should take into account the sinks on both sides When purchasing, pay attention to the length of the water basin and the faucet. If the sink is a double basin, pay attention to the length of the water spout and take into account the sinks on both sides when rotating. 4. With anti-calcification system and anti-backflow system Calcium is deposited in shower heads and automatic cleaning systems. Similarly, kitchen faucets will also accumulate some calcium after several years of use. When purchasing, pay attention to choosing a faucet with an anti-calcification system, because it can prevent the equipment from being calcified internally. When all the seals inside the faucet fail, the faucet equipped with the anti-backflow system can still ensure that no backflow pollution accidents occur and the water quality is clean. So when purchasing, pay attention to whether the selected faucet has these two functions.
