How to solve three problems with kitchen faucets

Problem 1: Loud water stream with thin-walled stainless steel sinks

Do you have a thin-walled stainless steel sink at home? Then you're probably familiar with this: the faucet's water stream noisily hits the bottom of the sink.

Solution 1: The Crystal aerator

This is where the Crystal aerator comes into its own. It ensures a particularly compact and almost silent water stream. So you can turn on the faucet without making any noise in the kitchen. › You can find out more about the Crystal aerator here. You can buy it online, › for example here (only in Germany and Austria) or ask your plumber of choice.

Problem 2: Saving water means a long wait

Many of you also want to save water and energy in the kitchen. This is not only environmentally friendly, but also easy on the wallet. But things have to happen quickly in the kitchen, e.g. if you want to fill a pan with water.

Solution 2: The Mini Ecobooster aerator

This is where the Mini Ecobooster aerator comes into play. It allows you to easily switch from a water-saving stream to a boost mode with a higher flow rate. So you can save water and still work quickly when you need to. A quick flick of the wrist is all it takes to get more water flowing when you need it. › You can find more information about the Mini Ecobooster here. You can buy it from plumbing retailers or DIY stores and › online here (only in Germany and Austria).

Problem 3: Uncontrolled splashing when turning on the faucet

Another common problem is that too much water comes out at once when you turn on the faucet in the kitchen and everything around the sink gets wet. This can be particularly annoying when the surfaces are delicate or while doing the dishes. The water splashes uncontrollably and you have to wipe everything dry afterwards.

Solution 3: The Smooth Open aerator

The Smooth Open aerator can help here. It is equipped with a damper that prevents too much water from coming out at once when you turn it on. This keeps your kitchen dry and clean. › You can find out more about the Smooth Open aerator here. You can also buy this aerator in specialist shops, DIY stores or online.

Aerator good, (almost) everything good

Kitchen faucets can quickly become a nuisance due to noise, inefficient water saving or uncontrolled splashing. However, with the right aerators – the Crystal, Mini Ecobooster or Smooth Open – these problems can be easily solved. Just give it a try!
