How to replace or install a faucet aerator? Sanliv Conseils robinet Aérateur de maintenance: it is simple to Clean, replace or install a Faucet Aerator.
An aerator, or faucet aerator, is a small device that usually has a screen which attaches to the faucet at the point that the water comes out. Without an aerator, the water will come from the faucet in one rushing stream. The aerator causes the water to be dispersed in many tiny droplets, this helps to conserve water and also, makes the water feel ‘softer’ and less harsh in the stream as it comes out.
A faucet that has weak water pressure for both hot and cold water may just need the aerator cleaned. Another symptom of a dirty aerator is an irregular spray pattern or a stray stream of water going off at an odd direction. Cleaning or replacing the aerator is very easy and you might be able to do it without any tools.
Aerators are simple to install, requiring only to be screwed onto the faucet head. They conserve water and are good for the environment and count for water supply cost savings. Every hardware store has a variety of aerators, and most are universal.
The best way to change an aerator is to unscrew the one that is on the faucet, and bring it with you to the hardware store to find the correct replacement. Since sediment and dirt can build up in the aerator screen, it should be checked periodically. The aerator screen can be taken out of the aerator in order to clean it more easily.
Ou, you can follow following ideas to clean and replace your faucet aerators.
First of all, close the drain so you don’t lose any parts. You don’t need to turn off the water supply for this repair. The aerator is the assembly and screen water passes through as it leaves the spout. This part at the tip of the spout unscrews in a clockwise direction (righty tighty, lefty loosey). Dry both the spout and your hands before trying to remove it with your fingers. If it is too tight, then you are going to need to use adjustable pliers. Before using the pliers on the faucet, wrap several loops of masking tape or a rubber band around the aerator to reduce the risk of marring the finish.
Once you remove the aerator you will notice one or more parts contained within. Note the order and orientation of the parts as you remove them. As you take them out you will probably find grit and rust. Rinse the pieces with water and brush off the debris. For difficult to remove deposits, soak the parts in white vinegar for a few minutes and scrub with a toothbrush. If any parts are cracked or broken, remplace les. If the washer has hardened, it should replaced.
With the debris cleaned out, reassemble the aerator and screw it back onto the faucet. Hand tightening should be adequate. If water leaks around the threads, give it a fraction of a turn with the pliers and then remove the masking tape.
