I already bought this set, but one of the hoses is clogged and I can't breathe in the smoke from it, what should I do?

Mine did that too, and i couldnt ever get it to not do it request them to send you a new part

I rinsed my metal part out and blew hard into it. It's probably the ball that's a little sticky

Send it back and get a replacement set. Amazon should be able to help you there.

Return it. I didn't have that problem. In fact, the air should be cleaner when its running because of the filter.

I have had the same problem everyone else seems to be having and the seller, Amazon and the broker would not help. You might be stuck with a very expensive hose.

Try pushing the prime button while the filter is running. It will help purge the excess air from the system. If it doesn't help, the company that makes the filter is really good about helping you fix any issues with the unit even if it means sending you a replacement. I had a problem with my filter leaking and they sent me another one right away. Since then I have had no issues with the filter.

what Jeffrey suggested is exactly what I have done in the past. Also make sure that there nothing blocking the hoses, I found that sometime the chemicals that I have used might cause a blockage, wash the hoses & pump.

Yes..your hose might be pinched also, more the likely the vaper pump is bad.

Best guess would be to soak it again in a tub of warm water, take out, fill with plain water, attach the hose and flush it out.

Well i didnt have a problem but i do change hoses frequently cause if there not washable ( most of them arent) the do built some kind of dust from the charcoil and it tends to brake them or clogg them so you need to buy new ones and problem solve if you are willing to invest buy the washable ones there a lil pricier but u can rinse them and there way more durable

You may need more butane. I use mine on a daily basis and run out every 2-3 weeks. If that's not it you may have accumulated some dirt iN the hardware. Hit every nook and crany of it with a q-tip. I wouldn't use any chemical cleaners unless you're positive of the reactivity. Final suggestion is make sure every apparatus is snug and not damaged. Hope one of those help.

Adjust the position of the hose weight per the instructions. That should fix it.

Hi, you might want to unscrew the bottom to see if it is clogged but first I would remove the hose and check there. I have had little objects get caught there and it would loose suction. I have 2 of these and have had the one for 5 years now and love them both. Hope this helps

Give them a thorough scrub to get the layer of sediment off. And you do have to re-prime to get air out and re establish flow. Hopefully you've kept the priming washer thingy that comes with the filters.

Make sure the tubing/vent openings are clear and clean. Use distilled water as directed, and change the water bottle, which may be helpful.

The hose on mine became so impacted with carpet fuzz that I had to cut a coat hanger and bend a small hook on one end use it to fish the debree out of the hose, but be careful, as a wire runs through there as well and I could easily see a novice "coat hanger fisherman" breaking the electrical wire that runs down to the head. If you need to open the head, there are four screws on the bottom. Before doing all that, make sure that the dust bin and filter are clear, there is one small passage in the bin that was also impacted, and I had to use a screw driver to dig it out. This is a very quite and efficient vacuum, but emptying the dust bin and cleaning the filter is very messy business. If I ever need a new vacuum, I think I shall go back to using bags. Good Luck: Mike

My only suggestion would be to close the vents more to keep the heat in. Make sure you do not open the smoker either. Was it in a breeze? These are the only things I can suggest. Link to youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3Z_TUmUZb8&list;=PLac9Z7pi1Oitbb6OQGvAR6kCpJ3vzXq3E

I just recently noticed in having the same problem. I suppose I'm going to need to contact customer service or just get in there and see if it needs some pipe dope.
