A faucet is a popular term for a water valve, which is used to control the size of the water flow and save water. The replacement of faucets is very fast, from the old cast iron process to electroplating knob type, to stainless steel single temperature single control faucet, stainless steel double temperature double control faucet, kitchen semi-automatic faucet. Now more and more consumers will consider materials, functions, appearance and other aspects when purchasing faucets. How to classify faucets: 1. According to the material, it can be divided into SUS304 stainless steel, cast iron, all plastic, brass, zinc alloy material faucet, polymer composite material faucet and other categories. 2. According to its function, it can be divided into basin, bathtub, shower, kitchen sink faucet and electric heating faucet (porcelain electric heating faucet). With the improvement of living standards, faucets that can heat quickly (porcelain electric and electric hot water faucets) are more and more popular among consumers, and are expected to become the new protagonists leading the faucet revolution. 3. According to the structure, it can be divided into single, double and triple taps. In addition, there are single handle and double handle. A single connection can be connected to a cold water pipe or a hot water pipe; the double connection type can be connected to two hot and cold pipes at the same time, and is mostly used for the faucet of the bathroom vanity and kitchen basin with hot water supply; Shower head can be attached, mainly for bathtub faucet. The single handle faucet can adjust the temperature of cold and hot water through one handle, and the double handle needs to adjust the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe respectively to adjust the water temperature. 4. According to the opening method, it can be divided into screw type, wrench type, lift type, induction type, etc. When the screw handle is opened, it needs to be rotated several times; generally, the handle of the wrench only needs to be rotated 90 degrees; only need to lift the handle up to discharge water; as long as the sensor faucet reaches below the faucet, the water will automatically come out. There are also delayed closing taps. After you turn off the switch, the water will run for a few more seconds before it stops, allowing the dirt on your hands to be washed off when you turn off the faucet. 5. According to the valve core, it can be divided into rubber valve core (slow opening valve core), ceramic valve core (quick opening valve core) and stainless steel valve core. The most critical factor affecting the quality of the faucet is the valve core. Plastic core faucets are mostly cast iron faucets with spiral openings, which have been basically eliminated; ceramic valve core faucets have appeared in recent years, with good quality and popularity. Stainless steel spools are more suitable for areas with poor water quality.
