**2-function M22x1 thread faucet aerator – how it works and how to use it?**

The 2-function M22x1 thread faucet aerator is a practical attachment for your tap spout that significantly reduces water consumption while maintaining full convenience when washing hands or dishes. Thanks to the switchable spray modes, you can easily adapt the water flow to your current needs.

Product Advantages

• Two Spray Modes:

  • Aerated Stream (Continuous): A soft, aerated stream ideal for washing hands and filling pots or containers without splashing.

  • Shower Spray (Wide): A dense stream of fine droplets perfect for rinsing fruits, vegetables, and clearing food residue from dishes.

• Water Saving: Aerating the stream reduces water consumption by up to 30–50% without a noticeable loss of water pressure.

• Standard M22x1 Thread: Fits most classic kitchen and bathroom faucets equipped with a male M22 thread (approx. 22 mm diameter).

• Swivel Ball Joint (on select models): Allows you to direct the water flow at any angle.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

1. Removing the Old Aerator: Unscrew the original spout tip from the faucet (counterclockwise). If it is tight, use an adjustable wrench, protecting the finish with a cloth to prevent scratching.

2. Preparing the Thread: Clean limescale and debris from the spout thread.

3. Placing the Washer: Ensure the rubber washer is positioned inside the new aerator.

4. Tightening the Aerator: Screw the M22x1 aerator onto the faucet thread by hand (clockwise). Firm hand-tightening is usually sufficient to avoid damaging the washer—a wrench is generally not required.

How to Use and Switch Modes

• Changing the Stream: Switch between the continuous stream and shower spray by simply rotating or pulling/pushing the lower part of the aerator housing.

• Maintenance: Periodically (depending on water hardness), unscrew the aerator and rinse the silicone mesh under running water or soak it in a vinegar solution to remove limescale buildup.
