How to remove washbasin faucet?

After the washbasin has been used for a long time, the faucet will inevitably have some problems. It needs to be removed and replaced with a new one. In order to avoid damaging the water pipe, the disassembly should be carried out according to the correct operation steps.

How to remove the washbasin faucet

1. If you want to remove the lavatory faucet, you should first find the water inlet valve of the washbasin, and the water inlet valve is generally installed on the wall below the washbasin. Before disassembling the washbasin faucet, the angle valve should be screwed on first, so that the water source of the washbasin faucet is cut off, so as to avoid a large amount of clean water from the faucet in the process of disassembling the washbasin faucet, resulting in the waste of water resources.

2. After the angle valve is screwed on, some water will be left in the water pipe of the washbasin. Therefore, it is necessary to turn on the faucet of the washbasin to drain water, until there is no water flowing out from the faucet of the washbasin.

3. In the process of installing the washbasin faucet, it is generally necessary to use the water inlet hose to connect the water inlet of the washbasin faucet with the angle valve. Therefore, when removing the washbasin faucet, one hand should hold the water pipe of the washbasin, while the other hand should turn the wrench at the same time, so that the end of the connection between the water inlet hose and the washbasin faucet is removed.

4. In the process of installing the washbasin faucet, when the water inlet hose is connected, it is generally necessary to use the fastening nut to lock the water inlet hose. Therefore, when removing the washbasin faucet, you should first find the fastener of the washbasin faucet, and then use pliers or spanner to screw down the fastener, and then you can remove the washbasin faucet.

5. When removing the washbasin faucet, if the water inlet hose is brittle due to a long time of use, or if the fastener is rusty, it is generally difficult to remove the water inlet hose easily. At this time, it is necessary to drop some oil to the rusty position, and then take out the washbasin faucet.
