I ka wā e pili ana i nā ʻōnaehana plumbing i loko o kahi home, hoʻohana pinepine ʻia nā ʻano valves like ʻole. Loaʻa i kēlā me kēia ʻano kona mau waiwai ponoʻī a hoʻohana ʻia i kekahi mau kūlana plumbing. He mea nui e hōʻoia e hoʻohana ʻoe i kaʻano kūpono o ka valveno ka paipu wai o kou home. ʻOiai ʻaʻole i hoʻohana nui ʻia i nā noi noho/home, hiki ke loaʻa nā kiwikā puka i nā hale i kekahi mau hihia, e like me nā ʻōnaehana wai nui a i ʻole nā ​​​​ʻōnaehana irrigation.

Ma kahi e hoʻohana ai nā ʻohana i nā kiwikā puka
I loko o ka home, ʻaʻole i hoʻohana pinepine ʻia nā kiwikā puka e like me kēia. ʻOi aku ka maʻamau o lākou i ka ʻoihana. Eia nō naʻe, ʻike ʻia nā kiwikā puka i kekahi manawa ma ka kiwikā pani wai nui o ka home a i ʻole ka faucet waho.

Ka pae pani wai nui
Ma nā hale kahiko, he mea maʻamau ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi kiwikā puka ma ke ʻano he kiwikā pani wai nui. Hoʻomalu kēia mau kiwikā i ke kahe o ka wai i loko o kou home, a i ka wā e neʻe ʻia ai ka kiwikā i ke kūlana "off", ua pani loa ʻia ke kahe o ka wai ma o ka kiwikā e ka kiwikā. He mea maikaʻi kēia ʻano kiwikā no ka hoʻēmi mālie ʻana i ke kahe o ka wai ma mua o ka pani koke ʻana.

He mea nui e hoʻomaopopo he hiki ke wehe a pani ʻia kēia ʻano kiwikā a ʻaʻole pono e hoʻohana ʻia e hoʻoponopono i ke kaomi o ke kahe wai no ka mea e pau koke lākou i kekahi kūlana hāmama a pani ʻia paha. ʻOiai ua paʻa pinepine kēia mau kiwikā i ke kūlana "on" a i ʻole "off", ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻohana ʻana iā lākou i nā noi kahi i pani pinepine ʻole ʻia ai ka wai, e like menā kiwikā pani nui.

Inā ʻoe e noho ana i kahi hale hou, ʻo kāu kiwikā pani nui he kiwikā pōpō paha ma mua o ka kiwikā puka. ʻO kekahi ʻōnaehana kiwikā holo piha, ʻo nā kiwikā pōpō ka mea maʻamau i loaʻa i nā hale me nā kumu plastik a keleawe paha. Hoʻolālā ʻia nā kiwikā pōpō e like me nā kiwikā huli hapaha. ʻO ke ʻano kēia, ʻo ka hoʻohuli ʻana i ka lima i ka hapaha huli ʻana i ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau e pani i ka kiwikā. Ke kūlike ka lima me ka paipu, ua "wehe" ka kiwikā. ʻO ka pani ʻana, pono wale nō ka hapaha huli ʻana i ka ʻākau.

Pākuʻi
ʻO kekahi wahi paipu wai e loaʻa paha kahi kiwikā puka home he faucet waho. He kūpono kēia mau kiwikā no nā ʻōnaehana hoʻoinu wai noho no ka mea e pani mālie lākou i ka wai e kāohi i ke kaomi i ka wā e wehe ʻia ai a pani ʻia paha. ʻO ke ʻano maʻamau o ka kiwikā puka i hoʻohana ʻia no nā faucets he kiwikā puka i hana ʻia me ke kila kila, e like me kēia, a i ʻole he kiwikā puka i hana ʻia me ke keleawe, e like me kēia. E heluhelu e aʻo pehea e mālama ai i kāu kiwikā puka kila kila.

Pehea e mālama ai i kāu mea kila kilakiwikā puka kila
Kiwikā puka kila kila me ka lima huila ʻulaʻula

I mea e hōʻoia ai e wehe pono ana a pani pono ana kāu kiwikā puka, he mea nui e mālama i kekahi mau hana mālama maʻalahi. ʻO ka mea mua, ʻo ia ke kāʻei ʻana i nā kaula o ka kiwikā me ka lipine plumber, i hana ʻia me ka silicone a ua hoʻolālā ʻia e kōkua i ka pale a me ka mālama ʻana i ke sila a puni nā kaula o ka kiwikā, kahi i manaʻo ʻia he wahi nāwaliwali i ka pilina. Pono e hoʻololi ʻia ka lipine plumber i kēlā me kēia makahiki e hōʻoia i kahi sila paʻa.

ʻO ka mea aʻe, he manaʻo maikaʻi ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka lubrication i loko o ka valve, no ka mea, hiki i nā valves puka i hoʻohana ʻia no ka manawa lōʻihi ma nā paipu hale noho ke paʻa. I mea e pale ai i ka pipili ʻana, e lubricate i ka pou huila valve me kahi lubricant pīpī i kekahi manawa. He mea nui loa ka lubrication i ka valve i ka hoʻoilo.

Ma waho aʻe o ka lipine wili a me ka lubrication, e hoʻohana i nā hana maikaʻi loa ma lalo nei e mālama i kāu valve puka. E nānā mau i nā valve waho no ka popo. Hiki i kahi palaki uea ke wehe koke i nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi o ka popo e hana ʻia ma ka valve. ʻO kekahi koho ʻē aʻe, ʻo ia ke pena i ka valve e kōkua i ka pale ʻana i ka popo. ʻO ka wehe ʻana a me ka pani ʻana i ka valve e kōkua mau i ka hōʻoia ʻana e hana pono ana ka valve a ʻaʻole e paʻa. He manaʻo maikaʻi nō hoʻi e hoʻopaʻa i nā nati ma ka valve i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Kōkua kēia i ka mālama ʻana i ke kaomi i loko o ka ʻōnaehana.

Nā Valve Puka no nā Papahana Home
ʻOiai ʻaʻole i loaʻa pinepine nā kiwikā puka i loko o nā hale, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia e kāohi i ka lako wai nui o ka hale, a me nā ʻōnaehana hoʻoinu wai. I ke koho ʻana i kahi kiwikā no kou home, e noʻonoʻo i nā kiwikā puka no nā noi kahi e pono ai ʻoe e hoʻohuli pinepine i ka wai a pio paha. Inā wehe piha ʻia a pani ʻia paha kēia mau kiwikā no ka manawa lōʻihi, e lōʻihi ko lākou ola. Eia nō naʻe, inā he mau kiwikā puka kila kila kou, mai hoʻowahāwahā loa iā lākou. E hōʻoia e hahai i kā mākou mau alakaʻi ma luna no ka mālama ʻana i kāu kiwikā puka.

Me nā koho like ʻole he nui i ka wā e pili ana i ka valve e hoʻohana ai, hiki ke paʻakikī ke hana i ke koho kūpono. Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe maopopo i nā valve e hoʻohana ai i kou home a i ka wā e hoʻohana ai i ka valve puka, e kelepona mai iā mākou i kēia lā no nā pane.
