How to deal with ball valve leakage?

When using the ball valve, we sometimes encounter valve water leakage. If we find this problem, we should repair it in time. So how should we deal with it?

The method of dealing with ball valve water leakage is as follows:

1. Replace the sealing gasket: The sealing gasket of the ball valve is easily damaged, resulting in water leakage. When the ball valve leaks, you should first check whether the gasket is damaged or aged. If so, it needs to be replaced.

2. Adjust the ball valve knob: Improper adjustment of the ball valve knob can also cause water leakage, which may be caused by the knob being loose or too tight. If the knob is loose, you can tighten it slightly with a wrench; if the knob is too tight, you can loosen it appropriately.

3. Clean the inside of the ball valve: There may be debris or corrosion inside the ball valve, causing water leakage. At this time, you can disassemble the ball valve, clean the inside, and then reinstall it.

4. Use sealing materials: When installing the ball valve, you can add some sealing materials around the gasket, such as fluororubber, to enhance the sealing and prevent water leakage.

5. Replace the ball valve: If the ball valve is aged or severely damaged and cannot be repaired, it is necessary to replace it with a new ball valve to ensure safety and normal use.

The above is about how to deal with ball valve water leakage, I hope it can help you solve the problem of ball valve leakage. Ball valve leakage must be repaired in time, otherwise the ball valve water leakage will become more and more serious, and over time, it will affect your life and work.
