As an important part of modern bathroom space, the installation of shower head seems simple, but it involves many key links. If details are ignored during the installation process, it may cause water leakage, noise and other problems, which will affect the overall user experience. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure the professionalism and meticulousness of the installation process.
Preparation
Before installing the shower head, it is necessary to make adequate preparations. First of all, the preparation of tools is crucial. Generally, the basic tools required for installing shower heads include wrenches, screwdrivers, sealing tapes and cleaning cloths. Whether these tools are complete or not directly affects the efficiency and quality of the installation.
Secondly, the inspection of materials should not be ignored. After the newly purchased shower head and its accessories arrive, be sure to carefully check their integrity to ensure that all parts are intact, especially the integrity of small accessories such as connecting nuts and sealing rings. Missing accessories may cause subsequent water leakage hazards.
Turn off the water source
Before officially starting the installation, the water source in the bathroom must be turned off. This measure is an important step to ensure safety and can effectively avoid unexpected water leakage during the installation process. Generally speaking, the valve of the bathroom water source is usually located under the wash basin or near the shower area, and ensuring that it is completely closed is a prerequisite for installation.
Dismantle the old shower head
If the old shower head needs to be replaced, it should be dismantled first. During the dismantling process, the following points should be noted. First, use appropriate tools, such as wrenches or hand tools, to carefully loosen the connection nuts to avoid damaging the pipes due to excessive force. At the same time, during dismantling, you may encounter scale or dirt residues. It is recommended to wipe them thoroughly with a cleaning cloth to ensure good sealing of the new shower head.
Check the pipes
Before installing a new shower head, it is particularly important to check the status of the connecting pipes. Focus on whether the pipes are rusted or damaged. If any damage is found in the pipes, it is recommended to make necessary repairs or replacements before installing the new shower head to ensure the safety and stability of the overall system. In addition, clean the threaded part of the connecting pipe to ensure that there are no impurities left, which will help the new shower head to connect tightly.
Install a new shower head
When installing a new shower head, the following steps should be followed. First, wrap the sealing tape evenly on the connecting threads of the shower head to enhance the sealing and prevent water leakage. It is recommended to wrap 2 to 3 times, too much tape may cause an unstable connection.
Next, align the shower head with the connecting pipe and tighten it manually to ensure that it is well connected to the pipe. During this process, you should avoid using excessive force to avoid damaging the threads. After completing the manual tightening, use a wrench to further tighten the nut, but pay attention to the strength. Usually, the principle of "moderate tightening" is adopted. Excessive force may cause damage to the threads.
