In this blog from EcoRain, we’ll share professional tips and steps to guide you through replacing your sink faucet so you can tackle the task with confidence and achieve the results you want.
Before you start replacing your sink faucet, it is important to make a plan. Take some time to determine what type of faucet you want to install, taking into account the style of your bathroom and your personal preferences. Also consider whether you want additional features, such as a pull-out spray head or a swivel faucet, at EcoRain we offer a wide range of high-quality and beautiful sink faucets. By having a clear plan, you can work more focused and avoid possible surprises during the process.
Once you have made a plan, it is time to gather all the necessary materials. Fortunately, you do not need any additional tools or knowledge to connect the EcoRain washbasin taps. It is extra easy to attach and all the materials are included as standard.
Before removing the old sink faucet, you will need to turn off the water supply to the sink. You can do this by closing the shutoff valves under the sink or by turning off the main water supply to the bathroom. Remember to drain the water from the pipes by turning on the faucet after you have turned off the water supply to relieve pressure and remove any remaining water.
Now that the water supply is turned off, you can begin removing the old sink faucet. Use an adjustable wrench to loosen the mounting nuts and bolts, then carefully remove the old faucet and all of its components. Be sure to remove the old faucet carefully to avoid damaging the sink.
With the old tap removed, it’s time to install your new EcoRain basin tap. Follow our easy to follow instructions carefully, ensuring that your new tap is positioned firmly and squarely on your basin. Tighten the fixing nuts and bolts to secure the tap in place and make the correct connections for both the hot and cold water lines. Installing an EcoRain basin tap takes approximately 15 minutes. We use universal connections and also easy to access fixing rings, meaning that your tap will be installed in no time.
Once the new sink faucet is installed, it is important to check for leaks. Turn the water supply back on and let the water run for a few minutes. Then check all connections and fittings for any leaks and tighten the hose attachment nuts if necessary.
Finally, it is important to test the functionality of the new sink faucet. Check that the levers move smoothly, the water pressure is sufficient, and there are no leaks during use. Also test any additional features to ensure that everything is working properly.
