Quick repair method for water leakage in hot melt pipe
1. Causes of water leakage of hot melt pipes.
There are several possible causes of a hot melt tube leak:
1.The quality of the pipeline is not good, the long-term use is seriously aging, or the use environment is poor and the pipeline cracks appear.
2.The installation of the pipes is not standardized, and the joints are not tightly connected, resulting in water leakage.
3.The pipe is hit by an external force, resulting in rupture.
2. Rapid repair method of water leakage of hot melt pipe.
When a hot melt tube leaks, the following quick repair methods can be employed:
1.Prepare tools and materials.
Before you start patching, you'll need the following tools and materials:
1) Soldering iron or hot melt machine: used to heat hot melt pipe joints.
2) Solder: used to connect joints.
3) Cleaning cloth: used to clean the joints.
4) Screwdriver: used to disassemble the joint.
2.Turn off water sources.
Before starting the repair, the water source needs to be turned off to prevent the water from leaking out.
3.Disassemble the joint.
Use a screwdriver to remove the leaking joint, taking care not to damage other parts.
4.Clean the joints.
Use a cleaning cloth to clean the joints to ensure that the surface is clean and free of impurities.
5.Heating joints.
Use an electric soldering iron or a hot melter to heat the joints, being careful not to overheat it to avoid damaging the pipes.
6.Smear the solder.
Apply an appropriate amount of solder to the surface of the joint, taking care to apply it evenly.
7.Connect the joints.
Reattach the disassembled fitting to the pipe, taking care to ensure that the connection is tight.
8.Cooling fixation.
Allow the fitting to cool naturally, then gently tap with a tool to make sure the connection is secure.
9.Check for water leaks.
After the repair is completed, open the water source to check for leaks, and if there are still leaks, they need to be repaired again. If there is no water leakage, the repair is successful.
