Since the Lavatory Faucet is often used, it will leak for a long time, or it may be caused by a bad faucet. Then how to remove the lavatory faucet? It would be too expensive if workers were to be dismantled. The following Xiao Bian will introduce to you how to remove the bottom basin tap.

First, how to split the basin faucet

1. Use a wrench to separate the inlet pipe and hose. The inlet pipe of the bathroom is a bright pipe, which can be shaken by hand. When it is disassembled, it is feared that it will be broken if it is not careful. So when dismantled, Xiao Bian was particularly careful, with his left hand holding the hose, his right hand twisting the wrench, and easily separating the two.

2. Remove the faucet fitting so that the faucet can be removed from the basin. However, problems have arisen at this time. Because the hose of the faucet has been used for a long time, the hose has become embrittled and the fastener has been rusted. It cannot be unscrewed with a wrench.

3. Because of the narrow space below the basin, it is difficult to operate. And the glass glue between the basin and the countertop has long since expired, so the basin can be easily removed from the countertop. After the basin is removed, construction will not be hindered. Then sawing the hard-to-remove part of the rust with a saw, the faucet was successfully dismantled.

Wash basin faucet removal should pay attention to the following two points: 1, some family basin faucet below the hose in the tube is very deep, the demolition takes some effort. This is because during installation, the plug seat may be screwed onto the faucet body. You can use a relatively long screwdriver to turn the screw counterclockwise from below, and then from the bottom up to the top of the spool seat and high-pressure hose, pay attention to the top, to avoid damage to the seal seat on the seat and then remove hose;

2. Some water inlet hoses are used for a long time. Embrittlement or rusting of the fasteners may cause the water inlet hose to be unscrewed. After dripping two or three drops of oil on the rusted part, remove the basin faucet.

Second, how to install basin faucet

1. First, put the hose into the inside of the faucet and connect it. Then connect the screw rod to the faucet connector, put the rubber ring on the faucet, then extend the faucet into the basin, add the pad and gasket. Finally, use a wrench to fix the screw.

2. Since the basin faucet is a hot and cold faucet, the internal water valve is three-way, and there is only one water inlet, so only one hose can be connected. The other hose is also connected to the faucet, but the other end must be blocked. Xiao Bian had consulted the owner of the hardware store. He recommended using silk plugs to seal it. In addition, as mentioned earlier, the hose of the faucet is only 50 centimeters, but it actually takes about 60 centimeters. Therefore, in the hardware store, a matching 60 centimeter hose is selected, and the raw material is wound and connected.

3. At this point, the basin faucet was dismantled and installed, and the rest was clean and glued.

In fact, the basin faucet is particularly easy to remove, but people must choose a good tool before operation, otherwise, cutting is not good, it may get worse and worse. You can also take a look at the disassembled video on the internet and start working on it.
