To remove sediment from a faucet, you'll likely need to clean the aerator. Here's how:
- Remove the Aerator: If the aerator is stuck, wrap a cloth around the faucet where the aerator attaches. Then, use a vise-grip wrench or pliers to gently loosen it.
- Disassemble the Aerator: Take the aerator apart into its individual components.
- Soak in Vinegar: Soak all the parts in white vinegar for approximately five minutes to dissolve mineral deposits and sediment.
- Rinse and Reassemble: Rinse each piece thoroughly with clean water to remove the loosened sediment. Reassemble the aerator.
- Reattach: Screw the cleaned aerator back onto the faucet.
