C. Install the new aerator.

Your aerator is universal and made to work with both internal and external threads. If your faucet has internal threads, place the two washers that are included with your aerator, inside the aerator. Start with the thinner washer, followed by a thicker washer. If your faucet has external threads, use just the thinner washer.

Now, screw your new aerator by turning clockwise and hand tighten until snug. If you notice leaks after turning on the water, add plumber's tape to the threads of the aerator.
