1, traditional method:
When we encounter a broken water pipe, we should first close the main water supply valve as soon as possible. At the same time, turn on the faucet at home and drain the water in the pipeline. After that, we must remove the leaking part. If the wall is tiled, you must shovel the tiles first. Then shovel the cement inside, so that the damaged pipeline is completely exposed. After the demolition is completed, the damaged pipeline will be cut and then connected with the new pipeline. Or a temporary joint can be welded. Finally, when the pipeline is repaired again, we have to test the pressure of the water pipe to ensure the tightness, and then carry out plastering maintenance. Although the traditional method is the safest of the four methods, the probability of water seepage again in the future is also the lowest. But many families don't like this way, because it is more troublesome and the area to be demolished is relatively large. In this regard, the master said that the following two methods can also be used to fill the leak.
2, local repair:
If the water pipe at home breaks, you can find the exact location of the leak. Then we can make a hole in the wall with a hole opener to expose the broken pipe. Because the inner pipe is a PPR hot-melt pipe, we can find a new pipe with glue in it and stick it on the damaged pipe. Then burn the outer tube with fire to make it stick to the broken tube. This can also play a temporary role in filling the leak. Leak-patching rod For water pipes with cracks in the wall opening, if the damaged area is relatively small, a leak-patching rod can be used. However, we should also pay attention to this method, because the area of water repair in the pipeline is relatively small, and the follow-up effect cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, the problem of leakage is easy to occur again in the later stage.
3, hole repair:
If the crack above the pipeline is relatively large, the repair rod cannot fill the hole at this time. Then we can find a 18 punch to make a regular hole in the hole. In this way, finding a 20-inch pipe, melting a cover, and heating and bonding the cover to the opening with a hot-melt machine can also be used as a temporary repair, which saves a lot of trouble.
