Many issues can arise with bathroom plumbing, froma leaky faucet和clogged drainstorunning toilets.But a malfunctioning bathroom sink stopper can be more puzzling.
A bath sink stopper is designed to close a sink drain when you want to fill the bathroom sink with water, and then pop it back open when it’s time to let it drain.
随着时间的流逝,塞子变得越来越少,并且通常会冻结或破裂。学习如何修复水槽塞子意味着更换它。管道和暖气专家理查德·特雷斯(Richard Trethewey)当他向房主展示如何修复浴缸塞子时,他将带我们完成该项目的步骤。HomeHome
Glossary: Parts of a Sink Stopper
在开始项目之前,请快速概述所有水槽塞零件将帮助您更好地了解它们如何共同工作。
- Pop-up drain assembly:操作弹出式塞子的整个机制。通常以替换套件的套件出售sink drain.
- 塞子杆:(也称为升降杆。)您将拉动该杠杆,位于水龙头旋钮后面,向上关闭塞子插头或向下打开它。
- 连锁:(也称为升降杆表带或CLEVIS皮带。)此穿孔的扁平金属带位于水槽下方,有五到八个孔。连锁的顶部连接到塞子杆的底部。
- Pop-up lever:(Also known as the pivot rod.) This horizontal rod is located beneath the sink and connects the linkage to the pop-up drain assembly.
- Clip:(Also known as the spring clip.) This bent metal clip is located on the pivot rod and holds the pivot rod to the linkage.
- Tailpiece:这是一块长而直的管道,可从水槽底部的弹出排水管组件连接到排水管陷阱,这是管道的弯曲部分。
- Drain trap:(也称为P陷阱。)水槽下方的管道的弯曲部分(通常是字母U或P的形状)旨在握住水的水,以形成一个密封,以防止下水道气体进入您的房屋。HomeHome
- 过滤器:(Also called a strainer flange.) This metal rim inserts into the sink bowl, acting as the connection between the sink and the drain pipe.
How to Fix a Bathroom Sink Stopper
If your bathroom sink stopper is jammed, follow these steps to replace it. First, you’ll want to remove any items beneath or around the sink area to give you room to work and place a pan or bucket beneath the pipes to catch potential leaks. You don’t have to关闭供水,但是,如果您有可能会忘记打开水龙头,也关闭水槽下的供应阀。
1.删除旧链接
The old stopper lever behind the faucet connects to the pop-up lever underneath the sink. This needs to be removed first, and it’s easy to do. Simply head under the sink, find the connection between the stopper lever to the pop-up lever, and slide the clip holding the pieces together toward the wall. This should disconnect the assembly.
2.将旧的塞子拉出
放置活动扳手over the nut holding the pop-up lever into the pop-up assembly. Stabilizing the pop-up drain assembly with one hand, turn the wrench to remove the nut and the lever. Pull the stopper out of the drain.
3. Disconnect the Tailpiece
In some cases, there will be a short length of pipe that threads into the old pop-up drain assembly on one end and then sits in the drain trap on the other. This is called a tailpiece.
用一只手牢固地固定排水管陷阱,以防止其移动或扭曲,然后使用水泵钳将其放在压缩螺母中,将尾盘固定在排水管陷阱中。接下来,仍使用钳子,从上方的弹出式排水管组件上拧下尾盘。
4.卸下过滤器
Find the overflow holes under the lip of the old strainer and place a flat head screwdriver in one of the holes. Use the screwdriver to hold the drain in place. Head under the sink and place the water pump pliers on the large nut on the strainer. Remove the nut and gaskets from the pipe and push the strainer up through the sink to remove it.
Clean the drain hole in the sink with a rag and an all-purpose cleaner to remove any gunk or residue.
5. Insert the New Strainer
Take a ball of plumber’s putty, work it into a rope about ½-inch thick, and wrap it around the underside of the newstrainer from the replacement sinkdrain kit. Push the strainer into the hole.
从水槽下面工作,将橡胶垫圈放在螺纹上(垫圈的平坦一侧应放下),然后将其压在水槽上。将新的排水螺母放在螺纹上,然后用扳手拧紧螺母。如果滤网开始旋转,请将螺丝刀穿过溢出孔。
The putty should squeeze out from under the strainer (once the strainer is tight, you can remove the excess). However, be careful not to over-tighten it or the sink may crack.
6.安装新的弹出组件
用一些管道涂料将过滤器的螺纹涂上,将垫圈放入弹出式组件中,然后将新组件拧到过滤器螺纹上。使用水泵钳子拧紧弹出窗口组件,当弹出杆的螺纹端口垂直于水槽后面的墙壁时停止。这是弹出杆插入的孔。
如果螺纹端口不垂直于墙壁,但是没有足够的线可以在另一回合周围绕过,请稍微松开过滤器螺母,将过滤器旋转直至正确放置,然后重新绕过过滤器螺母。
7.安装新的尾巴
Hold the new tailpiece in place to get an idea of how much to cut. Keep in mind that the pipe should thread into the pop-up assembly, while the other end of the tailpiece has to be long enough to sit inside the drain trap. Use a tubing cutter to cut this to the proper length. Apply pipe dope to the threads.
小心地松开排水管陷阱上的螺母,然后将其从排水管下方旋转以提供一些间隙。将螺母然后将垫圈放在尾台的末端,然后将尾端的未线程末端放入排水管陷阱中。将螺母轻轻将螺母穿到排水管陷阱上。
机动下水道trap back under the drain so the tailpiece is in line with the pop-up assembly. Thread the tailpiece into the pop-up assembly and tighten until snug. Tighten the compression nut holding the tailpiece to the drain trap as well as the nut on the trap.
8. Attach the Linkage
与弹出杆的长端一起工作,将固定螺母滑到杠杆上,以使其坐在球上(线应面对较短的杠杆侧)。
接下来,将弹出杆的尖端放在夹子中的一个孔中,然后穿过水龙头下的穿孔连杆中的一个孔,然后穿过夹子中的另一个孔。将弹出杆通过连杆滑回弹出杆。
9. Install the New Stopper and Arm
对齐新的塞子,以便弹出杆的孔面向水槽后面的墙壁,然后将其插入过滤器中。将弹出杆放入弹出式组件中,以便它通过塞子底部的孔滑动。将螺母滑到弹出杆上,然后拧紧以将手臂放在弹出式组件中。同样,请注意不要过度。
10. Test and Adjust
With everything installed and tightened, test to see if the stopper and the stopper lever are working properly. With the stopper lever pulled upward, the stopper should close and hold water in the sink. When the stopper lever is down, the drain should open. If the stopper lever is too low or too high to operate, remove the pop-up rod from the linkage and adjust it to the next hole up or down.
最后,打开水,检查系统是否泄漏。
