Cleaning Your Kitchen Faucet Screen: Quick

Over time, mineral buildup and debris can accumulate in the screen of a kitchen faucet, reducing water flow and, in some cases, affecting water pressure. Regular cleaning is a simple maintenance task that can improve performance and prolong the life of your faucet.

What you’ll need: mild dish soap, white vinegar, a soft brush or old toothbrush, a small bowl, a cloth, and optionally a replacement screen if yours is damaged. The process is inexpensive and can usually be completed in under 15 minutes.
