Valve repair
Thread Content
What proportion of the purchase price is reasonable for the repair cost of domestic control valves? 40%? 60%?
Decide whether to purchase spare parts and repair them yourself or to outsource everything to a third party. If you do it yourself, it just costs the money for some spare parts, so it’s cheaper. If it’s outsourced to a third party, it depends on how the repair will be carried out; it’s quite complicated and hard to determine
It is generally 40%; if the valve is severely damaged, such that the valve core and seat can no longer be repaired and used, the price will be higher
Additionally, it is only necessary to consider repairing the valve if its performance after repair and its service life are more than half of those of the original valve; otherwise, if the repair does not yield good results and the valve breaks down again after just a few days, then there is no need for such repair
Generally, it’s mainly the valve seat and packing that need repair or replacement; replacing the valve core comes at a higher cost
