- splash less (I tried it with and without the aerator. Sure, it made more
noise and had more bubbles with the aerator, but, it seemed to splash

the same. So, I'd conclude the aerator doesn't do all that much if it's to
prevent splashing.


If you cannot see major the difference, it is not working properly. My sink
faucet would splash some distance as opposed to barely a splash with the
aerator. If it clogs frequently, you should treat your water as those
deposits can harm your fixtures, water heat, etc. Your laundry also has
those deposits on the fabric. I have a whole house filter and can go years
with no clogging. Chances are you need a filter or softener, maybe both.
