Try to let go of the overnight water

Since the faucet itself will accumulate a certain amount of water, it will absorb and store heavy metals over time. Generally speaking, before using the faucet the next day, drain the water that has accumulated in the faucet overnight before using it.

When you press it on the surface with your hand, the traces of handprints will disappear quickly; in addition, consumers are best to ask the sales staff for the product test report and brand The identification and after-sales service card, if the test report confirms that the product is qualified, you can use it with confidence.
