Removing a water restrictor from a residential faucet is generally not illegal for a homeowner to do on their own private property, as federal water-efficiency standards primarily regulate manufacturers and commercial builders rather than private residential modifications. However, removing flow restrictors in certain commercial buildings or rental properties may violate local plumbing codes, building regulations, or landlord agreements. Verification: Check local municipal building codes before modifying commercial or rental plumbing fixtures.
