Ngo-1921, owayenguMkhuzi Wezempi Wasebukhosini uLumley Robinson wasungula ithuluzi elilula elalizoshesha libe elinye lamathuluzi athembekile, asetshenziswa kabanzi emhlabeni. Sikhuluma - kunjalo - mayelana ne-hose clamp ethobekile. Lawa madivaysi asetshenziswa osebenza ngamapayipi, oomakhenikha, kanye nochwepheshe bokuthuthukisa ikhaya emisebenzini ehlukahlukene, kodwa angaba usizo ikakhulukazi ezimeni eziphuthumayo zamapayipi amanzi.

Uma ipayipi ngokuzumayo liqala ukuvuza, uzodinga ukuthatha isinyathelo ngokushesha uma ufuna ukuvikela umonakalo omkhulu wamanzi. Futhi kunenani lokulungiswa okusheshayo, kwe-DIY ongathembela kukho ukulungisa amapayipi aphukile ekhaya lakho. Kodwa ngaphandle kwe-hose clamp ebhokisini lakho lamathuluzi, ngeke ukwazi ukuya phambili kunesinyathelo sokuqala: vala amanzi.

Lokho kusho ukuthi uma ufuna ukukwazi ukulungisa amapayipi akho esimweni esiphuthumayo, uzodinga ukuthi ube nezinsimbi ezimbalwa zepayipi lapho usulungile. Futhi ukuze nje uphephe, kufanele ube nakhoi-hose clamps eguquguqukayonoma osayizi abahlukahlukene be-hose clamp nxazonke ukuze ulungele noma yini. Ngakho-ke ungasebenzisa kanjani izinhlobo ezahlukene zezinsimbi zepayipi ukuze ulondoloze ipayipi elivuzayo? Ngenxa yokuthi izinsimbi zepayipi ezidonsa kanzima zihlinzeka ngazo zonke izinhlangothi zepayipi noma ipayipi, zingakwazi ukubopha ngokuphephile amapheshana endaweni yawo. Futhi nakuba lokhu kungeke kuvale ipayipi kuze kube phakade, kungakunikeza ukulungiswa okusheshayo okudingayo ukuze uvuse futhi usebenze futhi amanzi akho.

• Ngezimbobo ezincane kakhulu, bopha itheyiphu kagesi epayipini ngokuphindaphindiwe. Uma imbobo seyimbozwe kahle, izinsimbi ezincane zepayipi zingaqinisekisa ukuvaleka okuqinile (nakuba okwesikhashana).

• Ukuze uthole ukuvuza okukhudlwana, sesha nxazonke ucezu lwerabha oluzovala imbobo. Ubude obudala be-hose engadini bungasetshenziswa ku-pinch. Mane usike irabha noma ipayipi ibe yisiqephu esibanzi ngokwanele ukuvala umgodi ngokuphelele, bese kuba okunye. Ngokufanelekile, isichibi kufanele sinwebe amasentimitha ambalwa ezinhlangothini zomgodi. Bese, sebenzisa i-hose clamp elungisekayo ukuze uqinise isichibi endaweni.

Khumbula: Uma usebenzisa izinsimbi zepayipi ukuze usize ukupeyisha futhi ulungise amapayipi avuzayo noma aphukile, kuyodingeka njalo ukuthi ushintshe ipayipi ekugcineni. Kodwa ngomsebenzi wokulungisa we-DIY osheshayo futhi olula, akukho okuwusizo ukwedlula i-hose clamp elungisekayo.
