Installing a Bathroom Sink Faucet: Everything You Need to Know

1. First, check if all the parts of the new faucet you purchased are complete. Then take out the faucet and loosen the nut and gasket on the faucet; be careful not to remove the black rubber ring on the faucet. Next, insert the two water supply hoses into the faucet installation hole and tighten them. Then, pull one end of the hose through the hole of the washbasin. For the next step, slide the gasket and nut onto the two hoses in sequence and tightly secure the nuts to fix the faucet. Finally, connect and secure the hoses to the hot and cold water pipes under the washbasin.

2. Before installing the faucet, you need to turn off the hot and cold water valves and check whether there are any issues with the washbasin and drainage outlet. When installing the faucet, make sure not to overtighten the fixing nuts, as this may cause deformation of the gasket. After the faucet installation is complete, turn on the water supply valve and the faucet to check if the water flows normally and if there are any overflow issues.

3. There are many brands of faucets available in the market, so try to choose products from reputable and well-known brands. According to experts from Qijia Network, some of the more renowned faucet brands on the market include Moen, Jiumu, Kohler, Zhongyu, Arrows Sanitary Ware, Hansgrohe, TOTO, etc. Generally, regular products will have brand markings, so when purchasing, be sure to check if the product has markings and whether its related information is complete.
