Once again they tackle the easiest situation. If the aerator does NOT have notches to use a wrench (probably 99% of the time), I take a rubber mat that is used in the kitchen to help open jar lids ans use that between the round aerator and my pliers to avoid damage. It usually works like a charm.

I would be wondering where that debris came from. Maybe check the seals on your shut off valves under the sink. You might have a bigger problem. Not just a clogged airator

Hi, I had an aerator adapter installed for a portable washer hose. My husband pulled it all incorrectly last night and now the adapter doesn't stay in place, the water pressure pushes it away. I noticed the piece inside the faucet moves a little. Is this a problem of the faucet or the aerator adapter???

The threads were probably damaged. Time for a new faucet. Though this is 2yrs old, I'm sure you figured it out by now.

In college whenever SWIM needed a new screen for SWIM's bong, SWIM would just take an aerator off a sink in the dorm bathrooms and rip it apart.

@@bhumphries1360It's a term used on drug forums that means "Someone Who Isn't Me". They believe it affords them some legal protection on the technicality that their story is about someone else and not them. This may seem silly and unnecessary, for example in the case of OP who is just talking about smoking cannabis or destruction of property at worst, which the statute of limitations is likely expired on both of those. However, when people are talking about more serious things like selling hard drugs or even worse, manufacturing them, it starts to make some sense that they try and shield themselves from the long arm of the law.

Daijoubu I my house every tap has a female aerator. I think it's possible to create a list of 200 different kinds of aerators. It differs per country, tap make, building style, and just what the hardware market liked to get in stock at some time.

I had the same problem with a Moen faucet. They really put them on tight at the factory. Put on a little penetrating oil or WD 40, cover it with a rag and tap it lightly. Then try turning it in the opposite way that you have been doing, in other words, in the direction that would tighten it----but just a bit. And then try to loosen it. Don't force anything, but this should loosen it up. Keep it covered at all times to avoid scratching anything.

Seriously? I thought this was gonna show how to put all the little pieces in the aerator together. The one I just bought has 7 pieces to it, and I can't tell how to put back together after my cat destroyed it. I can't believe there are people that dumb they can't just change the whole aerator or clean it out. Do they think it's magic the way the water comes out? I think I first took off the aerator from a faucet to see how it worked when I was 5.

Paula Cridge Most people don't know that the aerator is a maintanable part. Think about your grandma, mom, neighbors wife, etc. Not everyone is technical nor care about it.

I don't think I would go so far as to call people dumb just because they don't know how to replace something on a sink. Not everyone is interested in this stuff. Calm down, that's why we have Google and KZitem. Geez...
