Certainly, it might appear that being an owner of a house means fixing everything you did not know about. However, you can manage to gain a lot of success using almost no effort and money. What you should do is to mount a faucet aerator. It will not take you much time, but it will save plenty of resources.

This item can be considered a magic tool that allows saving up to 30% of water without losing water pressure. In other words, you will spend less water without even realizing it. Furthermore, it will bring you the biggest profit.

At first, it is necessary to find the existing aerator. It is the little metal cap placed at the end of the faucet. If it is recessed, you should be careful in your actions. The next step is to unscrew it. It is better to do it with your fingers and to use pliers only in case it fails. It is necessary to cover the aerator with some rag and to use force carefully.

As for the cleaning, you just need an old toothbrush and a little amount of vinegar. Further, it is necessary to go to the hardware store with the old aerator because it is easy to find its replacement there. You should choose a replacement that will perfectly match the size and threads.

Furthermore, if the previous aerator was recessed, you should buy a special “key”. It will help you to mount it. Additionally, it is better to choose an item with the WaterSense mark. Mounting will be made in reverse order. Firstly, it is necessary to screw the aerator and then to tighten it carefully without using pliers.

If everything was done properly, it will not take you more than five minutes. After that, it is necessary to turn the water on and to check if it leaks from the bottom. If it leaks, it means that you should rotate it by a quarter turn.
