Is your toilet safe?

Recently, NATIONAL QUALITY INSPECTION BUREAU RELEASES THE SPOT CHECK SUPERVISION RESULT OF 3 KINDS OF WATER-SAVING PRODUCTS SUCH AS SITTING TOILET TO SHOW, 18 BATCHES OF UNQUALIFIED GOODS ARE ALL INTELLIGENT SITTING TOILET, CLEAN BODY, SINGLE CATEGORY UNQUALIFIED rate REACHES 40%, AND all EXIST THE unqualified PROJECT THAT ENDANGERS PERSONAL SAFETY. The famous brands in the field of sanitary ceramics such as Olusha, crown bead and wave Whale occupy half of the black list. The personAGE INSIDE COURSE OF STUDY EXPRESSES, INTELLIGENT SIT IMPLEMENT INDUSTRY JUST STARTED, LACK SUPERVISION SERIOUSLY, NORM, PARTIAL ENTERPRISE TURNS a deaf EAR TO PRODUCTION STANDARD OR IGNORANCE BROUGHT ABOUT PRESENT SITUATION. However, the national inspection after the collective repentance, upgrading the production process.

40% of smart toilets are not up to scratch

Nonconforming products have hidden danger to personal safety

As WE HAVE LEARNED, THIS DETECTION IS THE SUPERVISION THAT THE COUNTRY SITS IMPLEMENT PRODUCT TO CARRY OUT TO INTELLIGENCE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SITTING IMPLEMENT PRODUCT SPOT CHECK. This time a total of 52 kinds of ordinary toilet, 25 kinds of integrated intelligent toilet, 20 kinds of independent sitting toilet clean body (electronic toilet lid), 18 batches of unqualified products are all from intelligent toilet, clean body.

In order to highlight the items related to personal health and safety, AQSIQ focused on checking the input power and current, heating, leakage current and electrical strength at working temperature, moisture resistance, leakage current and electrical strength, grounding measures, heat and fire resistance and safety water level and other safety items. As a result, many brands are failing on these most basic items.

One of the hardest areas of unqualified items is the combustion resistance of the seat ring of intelligent toilet products. It is reported that heat and fire resistance is the mandatory requirements of electrical safety standards, if the heat and fire resistance of non-metallic materials in electrical products does not meet the requirements, when the product failure or overload, there may be smoke, fire and other accidents, direct harm to the user's personal safety. A total of 17 batches of products failed to pass the fire resistance test of seat ring materials, mainly because the enterprise did not add flame retardant in the production process or did not add enough flame retardant. Ou Lu Sha, wave whale, Beilang, crown bead, Apollo and other brand products, all have this problem.

Another serious unqualified item is intelligent toilet product grounding measures. It is said that this is also a mandatory requirement of electrical safety standards, the failure of the project may cause electric shock accident. Three batches of products have this problem, Langwhale products won the bid again. There is a batch of products, heating does not meet the standard requirements. The temperature appreciation of the hot air used for drying human body is too high, which will cause harm to the user.

There are a lot of toilet fires

Some manufacturers do not understand the safety standards

Looking back at the news, there have been many incidents of smart toilets catching fire. In 2013, Liu's Dongpeng smart toilet caught fire in his home in Dongguan. "The entire toilet has collapsed, leaving only the lumpy structure and the top left corner of the socket where the toilet plug is attached melted." At that time, the personage inside course of study ever analyzed the possibility for toilet seat is not flame retardant. According to the Jianghuai Morning Post, in 2012, a woman surnamed Ren rented a house in a residential area in Hefei. The smart toilet made by Shanghai Olusa Sanitary Ware company also spontaneously burned and left a base. The final cause of the investigation was not announced in either case.

In the production standard OF intelligent seat implement, is there strict safety regulation after all? The personAGE INSIDE COURSE OF STUDY points out, INTELLIGENCE sits IMPLEMENT TO STILL DO NOT HAVE COMPLETE STANDARD at PRESENT. The toilet seat part of the product is in accordance with the standard specifications for household appliances, and the lower part is in accordance with the sanitary ceramic standard. Subsequently, the reporter looked up "the special requirements of the safety of household and similar use electric appliances" (GB40706.53 -- 2008), among which the butt ground measures, heat resistance and combustion resistance have clear provisions. If the standards are clear, why do such a large percentage of products fail on important items involving personal safety?

Chinese ceramic INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION intelligence Wei YU BRANCH SECRETARY HUANG XIN IS RED WHEN ACCEPTING Beijing Times reporter to INTERVIEW, ALTHOUGH INTELLIGENT SIT IMPLEMENT INDUSTRY had developed IN the home ten years, but all the time lukewarm not fire, market acceptance is not high, few people pay attention to. Some manufacturers, whose traditional industry is sanitary ceramics, have neglected the safety requirements of the toilet seat, which is produced as an electrical appliance, after they have adopted the smart toilet seat project. Some manufacturers can be said to even do not know that there is this production standard, directly leading to the spot inspection results so "tragic". In terms of heat and fire resistance, Huang Xinhong said adding flame retardants would increase production costs for some small manufacturers. "Adding flame retardants is costly to re-open. If the technology is not good enough, there will be defects on the plastic surface, and the color difference between the stool ring and the stool cover will occur." So many small factories choose not to add. As for the occurrence of grounding measures and other problems, it is a proof that the manufacturer of product quality control is not strict.

But Beijing Times reporters do not understand is that small factories cut corners, and the price of such big brands such as Olusha products is not cheap, why to save dozens of dollars of cost to commit a personal risk? The personAGE INSIDE COURSE OF STUDY REVEALS, ACTUALLY THE INTELLIGENCE THAT A LOT OF BRANDS SIT IMPLEMENT IS TO LOOK FOR DOWNSTREAM ENTERPRISE TO ACT, THE QUALITY IS NOT CONTROLLED WELL, CAN APPEAR A PROBLEM LIKEWISE.

The rectification of the enterprises involved has been completed

Unqualified products can be returned or replaced without any reason

Last year, news of a rush to buy smart toilet seats in Japan put smart toilet products in the spotlight. At a time when the industry is gaining the attention of domestic consumers, the results of the national inspection have come as a shock to many enterprises eager for quick success and quick profits.

According to Huang, companies and associations were notified in 2015 before the results of the spot checks were made public. In view of the problems in the sampling inspection, the association actively carried out standard publicity and training, and organized suppliers and technicians to tackle the technical problems of adding flame retardant. "No reason can be used as a justification for violating national standards. This spot inspection has sounded the alarm for many manufacturers." According to reports, at present involved in the enterprise has been under the supervision of the association rectification completed. "Except for a few small factories that cannot be regulated, most of the formal enterprises are already producing in strict accordance with national standards." In THE MEANTIME, THE PERSONAGE INSIDE COURSE OF STUDY EXPRESSES, THE INTEGRAL STANDARD THAT INTELLIGENCE SITS IMPLEMENT IS BEING ACCELERATED ALSO IN MAKING, WANT TO CAST OFF THE AWKWARD SITUATION THAT A PRODUCT EXECUTES TWO STANDARDS RESPECTIVELY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. In addition, Huang Xinhong also expressed hope that the relevant government departments to strengthen the supervision of the industry: "For example, this spot check is the first time for this industry, but the promotion role should not be underestimated. With more supervision in the future, enterprises will naturally be more disciplined and standardized. After all, no one is willing to smash their brand."

The PERSONAGE INSIDE COURSE OF STUDY ALSO APPEALS, INTELLIGENT SIT IMPLEMENT PRODUCT STILL IS THE DEVELOPMENT TREND OF THE FUTURE, THE INTELLIGENCE THAT DOMESTIC TECHNICAL STRENGTH IS STRONG SITS IMPLEMENT ENTERPRISE ALSO NOT IN A FEW, A LOT OF STILL DO ACT TO Japanese BRAND, NEED NOT BECAUSE OF THE BEHAVIOR OF A FEW ENTERPRISES SO, LOSE CONFIDENCE TO THIS KIND OF PRODUCT. "Spontaneous combustion accidents, etc., are extremely unlikely events." Regular brand goods purchased in large supermarkets can still be used at ease.

How to protect the rights and interests of consumers who accidentally buy the substandard products announced this time? The Beijing Times reporter consulted 12315 hotline that if you determine the production batch, date, model and defective products are completely consistent, and there are shopping vouchers, you can ask the business without reason to return.
