    Replacing glacier bay kitchen faucet filters
    How does one remove the neck part of the faucet to replace the filter? The water in the kitchen comes out of the faucet so slowly, both hot and cold and even both together, but the sprayer works fine... thanks

    No, the filter at the base of the faucet... he's tried turning it with a wrench, which seemed the logical way to remove it, but no dice - and he didn't want to break the whole thing by applying too much pressure... thanks

    Unfortunately, have not yet found the paper work for the model number. - but, as answered harold, it is not the aerator it is the filter in base of the neck of the faucet.
    Thanks -

    Ok please tell us some more about your faucet, is it a single handle, two handles (Knobs) with a sprayer or with out, would you be able to post a picture of the faucet, and home depot carries most of the Glacier parts, Thanks.
