Introduction: selection of bathroom products, water saving of shower and valve core
There are not a few water-saving products in the market, but they haven't occupied a large market share. Compared with the general bathroom products, the price of water-saving bathroom products is higher. In the short term, many consumers won't choose water-saving products, but in the long term, they are still saving. When choosing water-saving shower, the modeling is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is the core of the shower - valve core. You should pay more attention to choosing.
1. Heart is the key - valve core
There are three kinds of common faucet valve elements on the market: stainless steel ball valve, ceramic disc valve element and shaft rolling valve element. The best is the faucet made of ball valve, which is recognized as the best water-saving product in the industry. At present, most of the water-saving faucets use ceramic valve core to improve the sealing performance. They can open and close hundreds of thousands of times without leaking a drop of water. Compared with the old faucets, they can save 30% - 50% water. And the latest water-saving faucet has been innovated. You can adjust or remove the water-saving device installed in the faucet according to your own needs, and control the water-saving rate freely.
2. Copper body and stainless steel material
The traditional old-fashioned faucets and water pipes are easy to rust and pollute the water. When they are used, the water in the pipes must be drained first. As far as the faucets are concerned, copper and stainless steel are the preferred materials, mainly because the copper medium has high antibacterial effect, stainless steel is sanitary and environmentally friendly, and chromium equipment is easy to care and harmless to people, but other elements need to be added in the manufacturing process. Therefore, when purchasing water-saving faucets, we must pay attention to what materials the equipment is made of. After all, not all countries have the same standards as Germany.
3. Understand the foaming effect of water flow
Now many showers and faucets start to use the air and water mixing technology. The small holes on the spray surface of the shower absorb a large amount of air and combine with the water in the interior to generate water mixed with numerous bubbles, and then flow out evenly from the spray holes, so that the water flow has the effect of foaming, and the scouring force of the water increases a lot, so as to effectively reduce the water consumption. According to the calculation, to achieve the same cleaning effect, the spray using air / water mixing technology can save up to 10% water than the traditional spray.
4. Another constant temperature and automatic function if possible
Constant temperature and automatic function are also the "artifact" of water saving. If the faucet / shower has constant temperature function, it can automatically and continuously make up for the change of water pressure and water temperature, make the water temperature meet the user's temperature requirements in an instant, and reduce the water consumption during temperature transition; Not to mention the full-automatic faucet, it is believed that everyone is common in the public toilet, but the automatic faucet with poor quality will turn off slowly after leaving by hand, instead, it will drain a lot of water. Therefore, it is better to test this function on site.
