1. Clean the valve surface regularly
In order to ensure that the surface of the Concealed Mixing Valve remains bright and new for a long time, it is recommended to perform regular cleaning once a month. Use a soft damp cloth to dip in a small amount of neutral detergent (such as a mixture of neutral dishwashing liquid and water at a ratio of 1:10), and gently wipe the surface of the valve body to remove dust and stains. For stubborn stains, you can use a special metal cleaner, dip in a small amount of detergent and gently wipe the stain with a soft cloth, then rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Avoid using detergents containing bleach, strong acid or alkaline to avoid damaging the electroplating layer on the surface of the valve body. Regular surface cleaning can prevent long-term accumulation of dirt and maintain the bright appearance and good performance of the mixing valve.
2. Check the sealing parts
Inspect the sealing parts of the mixing valve at least once a quarter, including O-rings, gaskets, etc. First, turn off the water source and open the mixing valve to release the internal pressure. Then, disassemble the main part of the mixing valve (follow the instructions in the product manual) and check whether the sealing parts are worn, deformed, aged or cracked. If any problems are found, high-quality seals of the same specifications should be replaced in time. During the replacement process, it is necessary to pay attention to cleaning the sealing parts, removing dirt and impurities, ensuring that the seals are installed in the correct position, and avoiding loose sealing due to improper installation. Correct maintenance of sealing parts can effectively prevent water leakage, ensure the sealing performance of the mixing valve, avoid water waste and damp bathroom floors, and maintain a dry and tidy bathroom environment.
3. Clean the filter
The filter inside the mixing valve is easily blocked by impurities, scale, etc., affecting the smoothness and water quality of the water flow. It is recommended to clean the filter once a quarter. First, turn off the water source, open the mixing valve to release the internal pressure, and then remove the filter component. Use a soft brush to gently scrub the surface of the filter to remove attached impurities and scale. For stubborn dirt, you can soak it in warm water, add an appropriate amount of white vinegar or a professional scale cleaner, and soak it for about 30 minutes to 1 hour to soften the dirt. Then scrub the filter again to ensure that all dirt is removed. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and check whether the filter is intact. If damaged, replace it in time. After reinstalling the filter, test the water to ensure that the water flow is normal and there is no leakage. By cleaning the filter regularly, the water flow can be kept smooth and stable, the water purity can be improved, and the normal operation of the mixing valve and the health and safety of users can be ensured.
4. Antifreeze protection measures
In cold areas in winter, the Concealed Mixing Valve needs to be protected from freezing to prevent the internal water from freezing and expanding and damaging the product. When the temperature drops below 0℃, after each use of the mixing valve, the mixing valve should be opened and the water flow should be allowed to continue to flow for a few minutes until the residual water inside the mixing valve is drained. For bathrooms that are not used for a long time or mixing valves installed outdoors, it is recommended to close the water source valve in the non-use season and drain the water in the entire water supply system. In addition, thermal insulation materials (such as thermal insulation cotton, foam plastics, etc.) can be used to wrap the water pipes and the main body of the mixing valve to play a role in heat insulation and reduce heat loss. After the temperature rises in spring, resume normal use to ensure the safety and normal use of the mixing valve. These antifreeze measures can effectively avoid product damage caused by freezing, extend the service life of the mixing valve, and also prevent the risk of damage to indoor facilities caused by water leakage.
5. Calibrate the valve core regularly
In order to ensure the temperature control accuracy and water flow regulation performance of the Concealed Mixing Valve, it is recommended to calibrate the valve core every six months. First, prepare professional calibration tools and equipment, such as thermometers, pressure gauges, etc. Turn off the water source, remove the handle and valve core components of the mixing valve, and install the valve core on the calibration equipment. According to the equipment operating instructions, gradually adjust the opening of the valve core, observe the changes in the readings of the thermometer and pressure gauge, and record the water temperature and water pressure data at different openings. According to the standard performance parameters, fine-tune and calibrate the valve core to ensure that it can accurately control the water temperature and water flow at different openings. After the calibration is completed, reinstall the valve core and handle, conduct multiple water tests, and check whether the temperature control and water flow regulation of the mixing valve have returned to normal. Regular valve core calibration can ensure that the mixing valve is always in the best working condition, providing users with a comfortable use experience. It also helps to discover potential valve core problems in advance, repair or replace them in time, and avoid the expansion of faults.
6. Correct operation and daily maintenance
Correct operation and daily maintenance are the key to ensure the long-term stable operation of the Concealed Mixing Valve. During use, the handle should be rotated gently when switching the mixing valve, avoiding excessive force or sudden adjustment to prevent damage to the valve core and internal parts. When adjusting the water temperature, the cold water should be turned on first, and then the hot water should be turned on slowly, gradually adjusting to a suitable temperature to avoid impact on the valve core due to excessively high or low water temperature. Try to avoid frequent switching of water flow modes or adjusting water temperature during bathing to reduce wear on the valve core. After each use, the handle should be returned to the closed state to prevent the mixing valve from being in the open state for a long time and causing water leakage. At the same time, regularly check the walls and sealants around the mixing valve to ensure that there are no cracks or water seepage. If there is a problem, repair it in time to prevent water from seeping into the wall and causing damage. Through these correct operating methods and daily maintenance measures, the service life of the mixing valve can be maximized, its good performance and condition can be maintained, and a comfortable and safe use environment can be provided for users.
