I hope to find some advice here. I took my water purifier off my faucet and apparently the original head must have been discarded. I went to our home depot and the only heads I can find are threaded. This one is not. Does anyone know where I can get a non threaded head (aerator)?
I have no idea of the make of the faucet.
Thanks so much!

Some aerators are threaded on the inside, others are threaded on the outside. It appears that you need to unscrew the remaining black part in the picture.

Thank you!!! I would say I feel stupid, but I have never done anything like this before and now I know what to do. It did screw right off...and there were the threads! Thank you so much!

Take the black piece with you, so you can match up the threads for the proper aerator.
