Classification and components of shower heads
According to the valve core: ordinary shower, thermostatic shower, the main difference is the thermostatic valve core.
Distinguish by material: all-copper body, stainless steel body, handheld shower and top spray are mostly made of ABS, and some models are made of stainless steel.
According to the function: single function, double function, three function, four function, the function here generally refers to the number of types of water outlets.
The simplest shower head is as follows: it is a faucet + shower pipe + handheld, and a handheld stand. The shower can be taken off when taking a shower to wash all parts of the body.
The slightly advanced version is as shown below: faucet + shower pipe + handheld + overhead shower. It can have the three functions of hand-held, top spray and lower water outlet at the same time, which is currently the most widely used one.
The more advanced version is this kind of side spray shower, installed on the wall, the water flow comes from the side of the body, installed in different positions, can also achieve the massage effect, it can be said to be very enjoyable.
To sum up, the shower is actually a combination of the above components, one by one below.
Faucet
How is the shower quality? First look at its main part-the shower faucet.
â‘ Look at the surface
Faucets with good coating quality have high surface brightness and uniform color , which can illuminate people like a mirror.
â‘¡Look at the material
If you buy a faucet with pure copper, it will be heavier and rich in texture when weighed. Inferior alloy faucet copper uses less material and will be lighter.
â‘¢Turn the handle
The valve core is the most important core component of the faucet, and it directly determines the service life of a faucet.
When purchasing, be sure to turn the handle up and down, left and right, if there is no blocking feeling, light and flexible , it means that the valve core has high hardness and good wear resistance.
Shower pipe
As the shower head can be pulled at will during use, the shower pipe will be easily damaged after a long time, resulting in water leakage. Therefore, it is necessary for us to choose good quality shower pipes.
â‘ Look at the surface
The surface of a good shower pipe is flat, the gap is evenly distributed, and it feels smooth to the touch . It is best to use a stainless steel outer surface.
â‘¡Look at the inner tube
The use of hot and cold water needs to pass through the shower pipe, so the inner pipe of the shower pipe has a higher material requirement.
The material of the inner tube of the shower pipe is preferably EPDM rubber , which has the advantages of being resistant to aging, heat resistance, and not prone to expansion and deformation.
â‘¢Look at the tightness
Finally, we also need to see whether it is tightly connected with the shower and faucet interface, and whether the sealing is good.
The good quality shower pipe joints are made of all copper , and are equipped with better rubber gaskets, which have a better leak-proof effect.
Sprinkler
If the shower head is used for a long time, scale deposits will inevitably occur when the sprinkler head is out. Inconvenient cleaning will affect the water quality and use.
Considering the convenience of cleaning, many shower heads are thoughtfully designed to protrude outwards . Regular cleaning can avoid clogging of spray holes and make bathing more enjoyable.
There are also many shower nozzles made of silica gel . If there is a water blockage, just flick the silica nozzle to dredge, and the silicone material is easy to clean.
What to pay attention to when installing the shower
The installation methods of the shower are divided into two categories:
â‘ Concealed installation: pre-bury the shower water supply pipeline into the wall, only the shower head and switch are exposed, the overall look is relatively simple.
â‘¡Exposed installation type: a shower head installed directly on the wall after installation in the bathroom. The advantage is simple installation and convenient maintenance, but the disadvantage is that the bathroom is messy.
