Jet Washer Maintenance And Repair

13 March 2021

Jet washer is a high-pressure cleaning tool. Generally, jet washers are often used in the automotive industry to clean vehicles. Jet washers are also used in the sanitary industry, especially toilets. At home toilets, usually a jet washer is provided or a toilet faucet that functions to clean yourself after going to the bathroom.

Some residences still use traditional methods such as a bucket next to the toilet to rinse. There is also a toilet that uses a special flush to rinse in the form of a rotary knob on the side of the toilet. However, the use of jet washers is more commonly used because it is more practical and easier to use.

Like sanitary equipment in general, jet washers can experience problems such as water leaking or not being completely closed. How to fix it? Check it out below.

  1. Water dripping
    Dripping water has become a common problem that occurs in bathroom sanitary ware. Even though the handle is closed, water is still dripping or even flowing profusely. How to fix it:
  • Open the valve or handle cover on the jet washer using the L key.
  • Remove the mixer or "heart" which functions as an open and closed tap on the jet washer.
  • Replace with a new mixer and close again.
  1. Leaking in the hose
    The problem of dripping water not only occurs at the tip of the jet washer faucet, but also the hose. As is known, the jet washer consists of a tap handle and a hose connected under it. Usually, water will leak and come out through the hose connection. If you let it be, in addition to flooding the toilet, the water that keeps coming out will make your bill swell. The solution:
  • Check the cause of the leak, it could be due to a leak in the jet washer itself or due to a damaged seal.
  • If the jet washer seal is damaged, open the handle with the L key, remove the seal from the hose.
  • Replace with a new seal and close the jet washer handle again.
  1. The knob is damaged
    The jet washer knob is used by pressing it. The harder you press the knob, the more water will flow out. However, often the knob is damaged or already “dol” so that it cannot be used to adjust the intensity of the water discharge in the jet washer. To fix it, follow these steps:
  • Open the jet washer handle with the L key.
  • Unplug the knob that is damaged, replace it with a new knob.
  • When finished, close the jet washer back to normal.

That's how to fix the jet washer according to their respective constraints. However, it should be noted, the jet washer also needs care so that it is not damaged. The water scale that sticks to the jet washer has the potential to damage it, so it must be cleaned regularly for optimal. How:

  • Dry and first clean the surface of the jet washer that will be cleaned with a cloth.
  • Apply the liquid Chrome cleaner on the washer jet, let stand for 1 minute.
