What is the Difference between A Stainless Steel Faucet and A Full Copper Faucet?

When the kitchen is to be equipped with a faucet, when going to the merchant, there are generally two materials to choose from, all copper and stainless steel. What is the difference between the materials of these two types of faucets? It is estimated that most people still don't know enough, so I will introduce you to the characteristics of the faucets of these two materials.

What is the difference between stainless steel faucet and all copper faucet?

I believe that many of the stainless steel faucets are installed in the home. In fact, he has a particularly good advantage. It will not rust in a few years. Even if a layer of oxide is baked outside, it is actually brand new. But my mom saw a lot on TV. The luxurious family is equipped with copper faucets. It is said that since the luxury home is decorated, this is definitely a good thing, and the appearance looks more extravagant.

This all-copper faucet, many people will choose because of the more beautiful. The biggest advantage of the all-copper faucet is the beauty, but the plasticity and decorative feeling are stronger and stronger. However, it is not recommended to use this all-copper faucet for long-term use, because in the production of copper faucets, the lead component can be added to the product because of the need for the product. The copper faucet will also be plated for rust prevention. If used for a long time, it will cause some harm to the human body, especially for families with children.

The stainless steel material is truly environmentally friendly. The stainless steel material does not contain lead and will not rust. Moreover, it does not affect the safety of water quality and has the longest life. It will not be replaced in a short time for ten years.

How to choose stainless steel faucet?

1. When selecting the stainless steel faucet, if the welding process is not closed, the service life of the faucet will not be long, and the surface will be smooth and delicate. If the surface looks rough, it is recommended that this type of faucet should not be used. 

2. Material selection is also a very important thing, the general 304 stainless steel material is quite good.

3. The valve core is also a very critical component, the current best faucet valve core is a ceramic valve core, because of its wear resistance, and excellent sealing performance.

For the health of the whole family, choose a kitchen faucet or a stainless steel faucet. What I would like to remind you is that no matter which material the faucet is used, it should be replaced in time after long-term use. Otherwise, there are too many impurities inside, which also affects health.
