Is toilet freezing and cracking a quality issue? Expert response
We often see news reports that in some houses that have been uninhabited for a long time, the water tank and toilet in the bathroom have ruptured, the base has cracked, and even worse, a large piece of the base shell has fallen off.
Especially in the north where temperatures are below zero, bathroom products at home often face the risk of freezing, and parts that pass through water are prone to frostbite. Today, let's talk about the issue of "toilet freezing and cracking".
Firstly, why does this situation occur?
Industry experts point out that the cracking or falling of the water tank or chassis of a toilet due to weather conditions may be related to environmental factors.
For example, in winter when it is too cold and the indoor temperature is below 0 degrees, the water stored in the toilet water tank may freeze, and the volume of ice blocks may expand to the point where the water tank cracks. If the owner does not use the toilet for a long time, the water flow in the water tank will not flow for a long time, and icing can easily cause the water tank to crack.
Secondly, how to maintain and avoid it?
1. In winter, to prevent damage to the toilet due to icing, please drain all remaining water when the toilet is not in use.
① Close the inlet valve, loosen and remove the drainage bolt. After the remaining water is drained, tighten the drainage bolt, otherwise it may cause water leakage.
② There may be accumulated water at the back bend of the toilet, which can be sucked out by a sponge cloth or a water pump to prevent the toilet from freezing and cracking for a long time.
2. In addition to drainage, pouring antifreeze into the water tank or mixing it with alcohol, salt, etc. can effectively reduce the freezing point of water and prevent freezing.
3. If all electric heaters have been placed in low-temperature operation, especially when the heating system is turned on in the bathroom and it can be ensured that the bathroom will not freeze, there is no need to add antifreeze to the toilet.
During the use of the toilet, various phenomena may occur, and the anxious mentality of the owner can be understood. After all, most owners have worked hard for half a lifetime just for this house. At this time, the salesperson of the bathroom store needs to patiently help the homeowners find the real problem and solve it together. If the owner is still unclear, everyone can save this WeChat message and forward it to customers at any time to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings!
