fawcet noise
when running water into the kitchen sink i have noticed a noise, like
a low whine from the hot water faucet but not the cold water side, is this signaling problems with the hot water heater? tia |

Just unscrew it and rinse it out backwards, be careful it dosen't come apart. If you have hard water soak it in vinegar for a few hours. |

so far so good, no whine, didn't see any deposits or any of the holes
clogged, did a reverse flow, didn't soak because no deposits were visible...thanks On 19 Jul 2006 19:00:36 -0700, "RayV" wrote: wrote: thanks for the tip, i will do that right now... Did it work? |
