Review on 🚰 Niagara Conservation Tri-Max 3 Flow Rate Aerators - Chrome Aerator with Needle Spray (N3610CH) by Greg Simms

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Saving water made easy, very useful

With this aerator you can adjust the flow in 3 modes. Routine handwashing – shaving at 0.5 gpm, razor rising, toothbrush rinse – may use the 1.5 gpm setting to increase the pressure. Seems reliable enough. I had some trouble identifying threads on my faucet as there was an internal washer in my faucet. Once I pulled it out, threading this one was a breeze. I am happy with my purchase. For more than $6, I'm now glad I don't waste as much water as a 2.2 GPM aerator. Math: The municipality charges $2.64 for 784 gallons (1 cm3). Shaving - 5 min @ 2.2 GPM = 11 GPM is the amount of water used. Now divide 748/11 = 68 shaves - 5 minutes at 1.5 GPM = 7.5 GPM is the amount of water used. Now divide 748/7.5 = 99.73 shaves. It seems very small, but sum it up over a period of several years for one family. I calculated this for 1 person. What if 3/4 people in the family use this faucet every day? you have the idea

Pros
  • Trial period for one year
Cons
  • Nothing
