One of the sanitary ware that is prone to damage is the water tap. Yes, this is not surprising because water taps are the most frequently used household equipment. Starting from washing hands, eating utensils, even washing your face, and the like.

So, what about installation? Just like maintenance, installing a water tap is not difficult, as long as it is done carefully and carefully. You will also get a manual book or installation instructions book on the water tap packaging. If you are willing to read and try to apply it, it is very easy.

To make things easier for you, GB has summarized the steps for installing a sink faucet easily and precisely. Good luck trying, OK!

  1. The first thing you need to do before installing the sink faucet is to turn off the water flow first. Check the water pipe and turn it clockwise. Make sure there is no water dripping so that the water tap can be installed
  2. On the sink faucet, open the key at the bottom of the faucet along with the attached rubber seal
  3. Place the faucet in the available sink hole and install the rubber seal, then lock it again at the bottom
  4. Then, install the flexible hose on the faucet according to the color code. Blue is for cold water and red is for hot water (This step is done if the tap used is a mixer tap or can be used for hot and cold)
  5. Next, attach the other end of the flexible hose to the tap stop
  6. Once everything is installed, turn the water pipe back on. At this stage you can test how fast and fast the water is. Also check whether there is a leak or not. If the water flow is not strong, try checking the water channel or repeat the installation from the beginning.

Don't forget, choose a quality water tap, such as made of brass or stainless steel so that it doesn't rust and corrode easily. In addition, because the water tap is used quite often, clean the surface of the water tap if crust or stubborn stains appear periodically.

Also pay attention to the condition of the water tap button. If the tap button is loose, tighten it again. Because, this can affect the flow of water that comes out. Check the water filter to find out whether there is a blockage or not.
