Step 3 · Clean or Replace Faucet and Showerhead Aerators

This is the step people usually slow down on. Go finger-tight first, then a quarter turn. No rush — replay the clip whenever it helps.

Mineral deposits in your faucets and showerheads can restrict water flow, leading to low pressure. Carefully remove the aerators (usually by twisting them off) and clean them thoroughly. Replace if cleaning doesn't restore adequate water flow.
