The functions of each structure of the hand shower
The function of the hand-held shower hose is to connect the shower head and the fixed bracket or the faucet; the swivel head of the wall-mounted shower is mainly used to connect the shower head and the fixed bracket, and it can rotate at different angles; The special structure of the shower is the lifting rod. Its main function is to fix the shower so that the height of the shower can be adjusted up and down and the spray angle of the shower water can be adjusted.
Hand shower installation method
The shower is an indispensable item for bathing and bathing in life. With the shower, bathing becomes more convenient. There are many types of showers on the market. For example, the hand shower is one of them. It is usually installed in the bathroom. For this kind of household essential product, many people do not know its installation height, so , the following editor will introduce the installation height of the hand shower and the installation method of the hand shower, if you need to know!
1. What is the installation height of the hand shower
The general installation height is between 2m-2.2m. The height of the device should be determined according to the height of the family members. The height of the family members is different. When installing the shower, the needs of various heights should be considered to avoid unnecessary troubles caused by later use.
2. Installation method of hand shower
Although the shower is small, there are many parts, so read the instructions carefully before installing, and then determine the location of the installation. Before installing, mark the installation position of the shower on the wall according to the concentrated height, and then drill holes in the wall with an electric drill. Fasten to the wall; after the shower is fastened, screw it on and install the hose.
Precautions for hand shower installation
1. When installing the shower, it is necessary to perforate. When perforating, care should be taken not to penetrate the water pipe inside the wall;
2. When installing the round cover on the shower, be sure to tighten the screws, otherwise the shower will fall off;
3. Do not knot or bend during installation of the shower;
4. Before installing the shower, be sure to determine the height of the installation and mark it.
How to switch between different sprays with one key in the hand shower
A shower with relatively complete functions usually has three functions: top spray, hand shower and bottom water.
1. Appearance
From the appearance, except for adding a “hand-held” handle, the shower head is similar to the top sprayer. It can be said that the shower head is a “small version” top sprayer.
Like the top spray, the shape of the hand shower is also divided into round and square. Of course, there are other shaped designs, but they are less common.
The diameter of the shower is generally 100-130mm, the common one is 100mm, and the size difference is not big.
2. Material
As shown in the figure below, it can be seen from the cross section that the material of the whole shower head is basically ABS engineering plastics. The characteristics and advantages of the ABS material are discussed in the article on the simple appearance of the top spray, the material and the process are not simple at all. In short, ABS insulation has the safety performance of non-thermal and non-conductive relative to metal, and ABS has high strength, High hardness, light weight, convenient and labor-saving hand-held shower.
Due to the high frequency of use of the hand shower and the long-term water environment, the surface of the ABS is usually electroplated. The precise electroplating surface is like a “protective layer”, which is anti-corrosion and anti-wear, prolongs the service life of the shower, and improves the appearance at the same time. texture.
3. Water outlet mode
The rich and varied water outlet modes are the most intuitive difference between the shower and the top spray.
A small shower can easily switch between various water sprays in the palm of your hand. Common water splash modes include “shower water, massage water, mixed water”.
Different brands of showers have their own characteristics according to different functional requirements and designs. For example, Hansgrohe showers have three water outlet modes: “air rain type, swirling massage type, and shower type”.
4. Spout
The shower can achieve so many water outlet modes, in addition to the internal water inlet and outlet design, it is also related to the distribution of the water outlets. The scientific and reasonable distribution of spouts can realize rapid switching of spray modes, thereby improving the comfort of showering.
The material of the shower spout is the same as that of the top spray, mostly TPR soft rubber or silicone thermoplastic soft rubber. The appearance is transparent or beige particles, which have good resilience and are easy to process and shape.
The soft rubber spout also has the function of easy cleaning of the water. During the long-term use of the shower, scale will inevitably accumulate inside, and there is no need to disassemble and clean it. Just rub it gently with your fingers to unclog the blockage and keep the water flowing smoothly.
5. Button switching technology
As above, we know that the hand shower has multiple water outlet modes, so how to smoothly switch the desired water spray during the shower? This involves the design of the switching method.
Common switching methods include paddle type (rotary switching) and button type (one-key switching).
The paddle type is a traditional switching method, which is realized by rotating the cover. In the shower, the hands are covered with foam, and the operation of the paddle is easy to slip or the switch is not in place. As a result, the push-button shower was born.
The push-button type, which is often heard as “one-key switching”, is designed similar to pressing a ballpoint pen, and the water outlet mode can be switched by pressing it. It is more convenient and practical than the paddle type, and can be easily operated with one hand.
