Repairs and maintenance
Maintenance of faucets:
- Maintenance of the faucet depends on how hard your water is.
- It would be a good idea to check the mineral content or if there is a coating in the kettle.
- If there is scale after a few boilings, maintenance of the faucet will be more difficult.
- If the water is very hard, consider installing a softener. Hard water can significantly shorten the life of the cartridge and the faucet surface.
- No matter what faucet cleaning product you choose, rinsing it once a week is definitely not enough.
- You should give your faucets more thorough care two to three times a week.
Cleaning products:
- The cleaning product is not applied by spraying directly onto the faucet. Because it seeps into the joints and under the paint, where a chemical reaction occurs and the protective layer of the paint is damaged. The paint then peels off and causes undesirable visual changes to the surface finish.
- The product must be properly maintained. We recommend cleaning our products with water only, but if it is necessary to use a cleaning agent, we apply it only to a microfiber cleaning cloth.
- For cleaning, use designated chemicals that do not contain hydrochloric, formic and phosphoric acid.
- Do not use vinegar solution on colored batteries.
- Then rinse the battery with clean water and dry it with a dry and clean microfiber cloth.
- Residues of cosmetic products can also damage the battery, they must be carefully removed with water.
