Key warning signs that your faucet aerator is failing or clogged include water spraying erratically in sideways directions, a sputtering or spitting water stream, a noticeable drop in flow volume, visible white crusty calcium deposits encrusted around the screen tip, or dark rubber debris mixed into the water flow. These symptoms indicate that mineral scale has choked the internal mesh screen. Verification: Unscrew the aerator tip and inspect the internal mesh screen for mineral buildup or physical damage.
