whistling water
Hi everyone! I've enjoyed reading thru your posts and this seems like a
saavy group. Hope you don't mind if I jump in with a question. My daughter and I installed a new faucet set in the bathroom and it looks and works great, but whenever we turn on either water tap it whistles. Anybody know what went wrong and/or how to quiet it down. kukla |

Try removing the aerator and running the faucet (hot and cold) full blast for at least 60 seconds. -- Tony Sivori Due to spam, I'm filtering all Google Groups posters. |

Take it off and try it and look to see if something is in the passages in the aerator. |
