What are the features of high quality valves?
Faucets are one of the most widely used health tools in the use of drinking water by humans in homes and public places, and compliance with its standard characteristics is very necessary for human life. All components of faucets, including valve body, connecting nut, hose and other components, must be produced in such a way that in contact with water at a temperature of 90 degrees, it does not have any effect on the taste, color, and smell of the water composition. On the one hand, body alloys are resistant to severe cold and do not crack. In this issue of the publication, we intend to explain the key points for choosing the best and most economical sanitary faucets for buyers and consumers. Therefore, we had a conversation with Engineer Babak Mokhbarian, the manager of the quality control of the valve production line of Artin factory, which is interesting. The quality control manager of the valve production line says about the valve manufacturing process: The first important point in valve production is the material used in the valve alloy. According to this expert, the material used in the alloy of high-quality faucets should be made of brass. He added: In order to comply with the standard indicators in the production of valves, alloy compositions should consist of 58-60% copper and 37-40% zinc. This expert further emphasized that valve manufacturers add a percentage of lead to brass alloy compounds for better formability of the alloy in valve production furnaces, of course, this amount should not be more than 2.5%, because using more than the permissible limit is a serious threat to It is human health. To the extent that not complying with the standard index of lead consumption in rice alloy can increase the possibility of developing blood cancer in people. Mokhberian, the quality control manager of Artin factory's valve production line, says: In order to prevent these diseases, the standard characteristics of the alloy compounds used in the valves must be controlled and observed. He reminded that today in the world all buried faucets ((city water and sewage)) which are away from light and air flow and in contact with the soil are made of bronze alloy, which unfortunately, due to the high price of bronze element, instead of copper and brass elements is used He pointed to the standard characteristics of faucet hoses and said: Today, in the world, polyethylene material is used in hoses, which are resistant to heat and cold water, and this while we see that some domestic manufacturers are using it for cost-effectiveness. Reducing the cost of production, they use a tube with a material called EPDM, which oxidizes and decays faster in the vicinity of air. He emphasized that even the metal cover in the hoses should be made of stillness steel (stainless steel). This expert recommends that buyers pay attention to these points when choosing and buying faucets and ask the sellers to show the manufacturers' standards.
Step One:
Before buying, ask the seller to show you the standard of the factory that produces the faucets that he introduces to you or that you like, and remind him that unfortunately in Iran, because the porcelain materials are counterfeited by the under-stairs brands. are assembled invalidly, it advises the buyers to obtain the necessary advice from the sales representatives of the valve manufacturing factories and to ask the valve seller to provide the warranty of the purchased valves with a valid seal along with the date of delivery to the buyer.
This expert notes: Most brand faucet manufacturers who produce high-quality standard products guarantee the faucet product for at least 5 years.
He points out to the buyers that tracking and standard inquiry for Iranian valve products is much more reliable and easier than foreign products that do not have a representative in Iran for the support services of the required parts.
He reassured the buyers that the quality of many domestic brands of Iranian faucets are equal to the European brands. Because we have seen that many manufacturers not only comply with Iran's standards, but have also achieved global standards and export their faucet products to foreign countries.
Step Two:
Buyers of sanitary faucets, ask the sellers in the market to explain to you about the degree of watertightness of the faucets ((dripping rate)) and go for the faucets to buy that guarantee the watertightness of the faucets.

Step Three:
Buyers of sanitary faucets, make sure from the sellers about the quality of the internal cartridge ((valve core)), which is one of the most important parts in the faucet, and ask them to introduce the faucets that guarantee the highest efficiency in opening and closing the faucets. they do.
Step Four:
Buyers of sanitary faucets should pay attention to this point when choosing faucets for bathrooms that have a humid environment, since the alloys of these faucets are more exposed to moisture, the plating in the alloys of these faucets should have the appropriate quality and the necessary standards. Also, in choosing kitchen faucets, considering that it has more functionality than other faucets in homes. It is recommended to buy faucets that have high-quality cartridges with larger spring hoses.
Step Five:
Ululite shopping with low consumption faucets
Buyers of sanitary faucets, considering the price of energy carrier and optimal use in saving water, should give preference to the faucets that have the low consumption factor and go for the faucets that are equipped with an eye sensor, because on average, annually Choosing these smart faucets saves 500 liters of water per unit.
