Neoperl 980 Faucet Aerator Female 2.2 Gpm Stainless Steel

Product Description

The NEOPERL 980 is a female-thread faucet aerator constructed from stainless steel and rated for a flow rate of 2.2 gallons per minute (GPM). Aerators thread onto the end of a faucet spout to mix air into the water stream, reducing flow volume while maintaining perceived pressure. This unit is designed for water conservation applications and is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Plumbers and maintenance technicians install this aerator as a straightforward replacement or upgrade on compatible faucets requiring a female-thread connection.

The NEOPERL 980 is suited for standard faucet spouts in kitchens and bathrooms where flow restriction is needed to meet water conservation requirements or efficiency standards. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion and mineral buildup in both hard-water and high-humidity environments. This aerator is a practical component for plumbing contractors, facility maintenance staff, and water efficiency retrofit programs.

Follow all applicable local plumbing codes, including IPC guidelines, when replacing flow-control components.
