Accord Plumbing are
Sydney specialists in leaking taps. One of the features of the Accord
leaking-tap toolbox is the Hydroseal valve. When you have
Hydroseal valves installed, fingertip tightening of your taps will
create a watertight seal. Hydroseal valves are superior to standard
washers and are ideal for elderly or arthritic clients.
How do Hydroseal
valves stop leaking taps?
Hydroseal valves use hydraulic principles to make a seal. When the tap
is closed water flows up through a hole in the valve face into a
chamber. The water pressure in the chamber behind the 'O' ring forces
the ring down onto the seat of the tap. You can finger-tighten a tap
with a Hydroseal valve!
Hydroseal valves are made from brass to last. One valve suits new and
old taps, and Accord Plumbing experts carry a variety of sizes.
Note: If the tap seat is pitted or poorly aligned, your Accord Plumbing
expert will reface the tap seat before installing a Hydroseal valve.
When the problem is more than a
washer
A worn-out washer is not always the cause of a
leaking tap. Sometimes
you need a total tap overhaul or replacement tap to fix a problem leak.
Accord Plumbing can advise you on leaking tap repairs, overhaul taps,
or supply and fit new taps on the spot.
Accord Plumbing trucks are stocked with
selected tap brands and styles.
