3.2 Passaggi di installazione

Unscrew the existing aerator from the tip of the faucet spout. Most aerators can be unscrewed by hand. If it is too tight, wrap a soft cloth around it and use an adjustable wrench to gently loosen it. For aerators with a small slot, use a flathead screwdriver to turn.

- Test per perdite:
Turn the water supply back on. Slowly open the faucet and check for any leaks around the aerator. If a leak occurs, gently tighten the aerator a bit more. If the leak persists, remove the aerator, check for proper seating of the gasket (if applicable), and re-install.
