What are the causes of shower leakage?

1. Shower blockage: If the water volume of the shower becomes significantly smaller and there is water leakage after using it for a period of time, it may be caused by blockage. Since the water quality in every city is not very good now, it contains a lot of alkaline substances, so scale will be generated after long-term use. If it is not cleaned up in time, it will accumulate in the water outlet of the shower, causing it to become blocked and eventually cause water leakage.

2. Shower head coating problem: If the purchased shower head has quality problems, then after a period of use, its coating will fall off, which will not only have a great impact on the appearance, but also cause blockage and leakage. Therefore, when purchasing a shower head, it is best to buy it from a regular brand store to ensure quality.

3. Material issues: Some shower heads on the market are made of plastic, but some are made of cast iron. There is a big difference between these two types of shower heads. Many plastic shower heads are mixed with some waste materials, so the service life of shower heads made of this kind is not very good. After a period of use, they will become clogged and leak. Cast iron shower heads are prone to rust and clog and leak. Therefore, it is best to choose a shower head made of pure copper.

What should I do if the shower head doesn't have hot water?

1. Buy a descaling agent specially used for cleaning shower heads. Pour the descaling agent into a basin, dilute it with water, remove the shower head, clean it, and then reinstall it in the original way. This will solve the problem of the shower head not producing hot water due to scale blockage.

2. If you are busy at work and don't have time to buy descaling agents, you can use vinegar to clean the shower head. The specific cleaning steps are to first remove the shower head, then soak it in a basin of vinegar for ten minutes, and then rinse it with water. This way it can be cleaned.

3. Clean the limescale in the water pipe and replace the new shower pipe. If the problem is still not solved, you can only find a professional maintenance person to deal with it. Do not dismantle the parts of the shower by yourself to avoid damaging them and affecting the later use.

2. Caressing style: Caressing style is a more comfortable way, and this kind of shower is suitable for people who want to relax at ordinary times.

3. Single-stream type: The single-stream type can actually increase the pressure, and it is also to allow the shower head to output more water. This choice is also very comfortable.
