Replacing a faucet can be done by following these steps:bathroom
1. Turn off the water source: First, turn off the main water valve in your home to ensure that no water comes out during the replacement process.
2. Release pressure: Open the old faucet, let the water in the pipe come out, and release the pressure in the water pipe.
3. Remove the old faucet: Use a wrench to remove the faucet from the connector. Remove slowly so that the faucet does not break in the pipe.
4. Clean the interface: clean the old raw material belt, rust or dirt at the interface to ensure that the new faucet can be installed smoothly.
5. Wrap raw material belt: Wrap raw material belt at the thread of the new faucet, generally wrap about 15 circles to ensure tightness, but not too much.
6. Install the new faucet: Align the new faucet with the interface and slowly tighten it. Note that when you feel resistance, twist it and do not continue to twist it so as not to tighten it too much.
7. Open the water source test: After installation, open the main water valve and check whether the newly installed faucet leaks. If there is leakage at the interface, you can tighten it properly, or remove and re-wrap the raw material belt.
8. Fix the faucet: If the faucet needs to be fixed to the counter or wall, use the appropriate screws and accessories to fix it.

● Choose the right faucet style and material according to your bathroom.
● Be careful not to scratch or damage the water pipe during operation.
