Although the use of electricity protection devices is often interlocking, all protection will be invalidated together.

However, once an accident occurs, it can help you keep the last line of defense of life.

However, in order not to let things go to this step, we still have to look at it first--

Why is a good electric water heater leaking? How can I make it not leakage?

Hurry up and send to the family, everyone needs to know!

These 5 use misunderstandings

Can cause leakage

—————

Electric water heaters are really the weakest electrical appliances at home.

Many people do not know that electric water heaters also have strict use specifications and precautions.

We have misunderstood the usage of us, and quickly collect it to see a few pits in your house!

这样 The electric water heater cannot be used like this ❌

The electric water heater is like a hot insulation bucket inserted.

Heating pipes, inner orchestras and shells are the most critical parts.

It may cause these components to be damaged and aging, which may cause the core cause of the leakage of these components.

Whether it is cleaning or replacement of magnesium rods, it is to prevent the scale not stagnant or clockwise.

Otherwise, it will not only block the shower head, reduce heating efficiency, and increase electricity bills every month. It may also cause the heating pipe to be burned through the internal temperature, causing leakage.

Next time, you must remember to arrange it in!

You can think of the electrical wall as a resistor. After the accident, it can reduce the current in the water and make you just be electric.

The problem of non -compliance circuit appears in some old communities and self -built houses.

In addition, some friends did not pay attention during the decoration at home, and found that the plug was not matched with the socket.

Just make a conversion plug, or the plug -in board connection circuit.

These situations may cause the circuit to be burned under large current, causing short -circuit leakage.

If the above misunderstandings are used, your home appliance water heater is shot. As long as this step is good, it will not cause serious harm!

This leakage protection switch is not only available on the electric water heater, but also can be seen on many high -power electrical plugs.

It can directly disconnect the power when leakage occurs to prevent accidents from occurring.

No matter how bad, you can also see your home distribution box. Is there any air switch with a leakage protector? This switch can also cut off the circuit when leakage.

With the air switch marked with the T button, there is a leakage protection function.

However, this leak -proof switch may also lose its effect due to water inlet, aging, and unqualified quality.

At this time, once the leakage occurs, the consequences are unimaginable.

Therefore, do n’t take an electric water heater improper home appliance. If you want to avoid leakage, the following points must not be sloppy-

4 methods

Guarantee the safety of the whole family

—————

01

Press these switches every month

If your home appliance water heater, or other electrical appliances have leakage protection switches, hurry up and see if it has a normal job!

There are many types of switches, and basically the following three parts will be composed of:

A power indicator light

(Some are green and some are red)

A test button (t)

A reset button (R)

In order to ensure that this switch can be maintained in normal operation, it takes every month to test it. The method is very simple:

① In case, you can put on rubber gloves, first press and press the test key (T) to see if the indicator light is extinguished.

② Press the reset key (R) to see if the indicator light is on.

Any problem with these two steps means that this switch of your family is replaced.

If you can't remember the order, you can collect the article first.

If you do n’t have this switch on your home appliances, do n’t panic, you can go to see the air switch in the electric box.

There are air switches with leakage protection functions, and there are many styles. The test method and leakage protection switch:

Press the T key first to see if there is a power off at home, and then press the R key.

Generally, the air switch in the electric box will indicate once a month, or once every half a year.

If there is only T in your electric box, there is no R, then you need to push the power gate up manually after pressing the T key.

If you really don't understand, just call the property and let the professional electrician master come to check it.

By the way, check the ground lines and sockets at home.

02

Don't buy blindly because of distressed money, buy blindly

Electric water heaters must buy products that meet the national 3C compulsory certification. Not only is the quality guarantee, but in case of a problem, it can be held accountable.

Moreover, the products of large factories are generally equipped with professional installation masters and installation.

When the master is installed, we should not be idle. Ask the master's installation position is not firm, the ground wires connected by the electric water heater are unreliable, and there are problems with the sockets.

Do not make it convenient, use a conversion plug and plug board.

If the electric water heater you buy is not separated by the electric wall, it is cheap to buy them by yourself.

Buy it for the installation master to help install it.

03

Don't point at a electric water heater for a lifetime

According to national requirements, each electric water heater should be marked with the safe use of the product.

Generally, this period will be used between 8-10 years and is used within the safety period. The chance of problems is very small.

If you can't remember how long the electric water heater has been used, you can see if there is a qualified certificate on the box, or call the manufacturer directly.

04

Wash at least once a year

If you buy a big brand of electric water heater, you can first consult if the brand customer service has a cleaning service.

If not, open a public comment or any housekeeping software -searching the water heater to find the professional cleaning professionals.

According to the different cleaning items, the price is between 100 and 250 yuan. You can call and ask before you purchase.

Some cleaning items may not include the replacement of magnesium rods. You can buy it on your own model on a certain treasure. The price is very cheap.

Under normal circumstances, the use of magnesium rods is between 1 and 3 years (electronic magnesium rods do not need to be replaced).

However, in areas that are hard and easy to produce scale, it may need to be replaced in less than a year.

If you are too troublesome and too expensive, you are too lazy to do it, then there is only one method left-

Unplug the plug to take a bath

At most, take a bath half and turn into a cold bath. That is always stronger than the leakage accident.

Finally, do n’t be lucky!

In case the accident happened, we summarized a leakage first aid guide.

Fast collection, likes, watching, and forwarding to the family love each other.

Do not happen by accident!
