Hi Greg;  Well your faucet can't be very old. Is there something wrong with the diffuser?  I'm assuming that it does unscrew (or you would be replacing the whole faucet).  Looking online reveals that there are new ways to replace these parts.  Some unscrew, some snap in. Some require an Allen wrench, and some come with a special plastic tool to aid in replacement.    moen faucet parts - Google Search

Hi Ron.  Yes, the diffuser does screw off.  The issue I'm having is tiny particles (probably calcium) clogging up the diffuser.  I've cleaned it several times already.  The diffuser is a 1.2 gallon model and I would like to find something less fine, perhaps a 2.0, so more material will pass through.

Have a 2015 MB. Yes, understand the problem. Sometimes using a tooth pick to clear a clogged screen works. Don't recall if that faucet is a Moen, but the galley sink is. Moen will supply free parts for repairs. I got a galley sink strainer free, a 7.37 dollar item!

Try soaking in hot vinegar, then scrubbing with a toothbrush.

Greg. I have the same problem and I usually flush faucet with the strainer off then install. If looking for a replacement they look the same as a residential faucet. Ace hardware might be your friend

Moen (Cleveland is a Moen sub-brand) faucets have a lifetime warranty. Call them for any parts or issues you have.  They are very customer oriented.

The part you're looking for is also called an aerator.  They are pretty much a standard part, the only difference is flow rates and inside or outside threads.  You can replace the whole part or just the internals.  Find it at any hardware store or Amazon.

Thanks, Linda! I didn’t have any paperwork on that faucet so that’s very helpful!

Thanks for everyone’s responses!   I think I have a plan now.

Following up on this thread.  I ended up purchasing new aerators from Zoro.com.  The old one was 1.2 gpm, the new ones are 1.5 gpm so the flow is much better.  Bought an extra "just in case."
