I don't have that problem. But more information as to where the leak is could improve your chances of getting an answer.

I agree with both answers from 2/12/15. A clear ID. of the location of the leak will help to determine if what is need is a simple patching repair or the change/replacement of a part. J.P Delgado

Make sure there is nothing stuck in or on the sprayer by running hot water on it or even carefully sticking a pin in it. If it is brand new, make contact and return it.

Try a new empty spray bottle. Dump the contents of the bottles you have into it.

Depending on the age & where it's leaking from you may be able to have the seals replaced. I wouldn't put much $ into repair though. If it's not very low cost just replace it.

Remove spray pump and pump some warm water through it. When it is clear replace in bottle. Shake bottle contents each time before using.

I got this same unit and had the same problem. They send the unit out without a plastic washer for the spray nozzle. If you don't have a tight seal both water outputs don't work correctly. I called the manufacturer and they sent me a washer and it worked. You can also get a temp washer at your local hardware store

Go to big lots and speak to customer service, they should have the information on the manufacturer and how to order replacement parts. They gave me the info for my canopy when it was leaking, but I don't the it anymore. Speak to them and they should be able to get you the info

Yes ours is leaking also, what have you tried? My husband thinks he needs to tork the screws tighter. Wanted me to see if anyone else had this problem and how they fixed it.

I took mine apart and put Vaseline around the water inlet fitting, which has done the trick for over six months now. I disconnected the fittings, coated the water line and fitting with Vaseline and reassembled. I asked my local hardware store person about the leaking and he suggested this. It works!

Sure a reg spray bottle will work for a time . It may eventually gum up or the Citrus will effect some of the parts in the sprayer

Mine is also starting to leak at a couple of the joints. I am not sure what to do but am considering buying that silicon water proofing spray to see if that helps

Here is what I do:Fill with water and screw sprayer back on With the squeeze bottle in the upright position (sprayer facing up), place a finger over the air hole (to keep water from spraying when bottle is inverted)Position sprayer as neededRemove finger from air hole & squeeze bottle for stronger stream

make sure there is space above the holder and lower the sprayer into it from above.

Assuming the male thread has not been cross-threaded, I believe you can solve your problem by replacing the rubber washer on the top portion of the spray. Plumbing wholesale distributors, Home Depot, and most hardware stores offer this product for sale. I would suggest you take the old washer with you when you try to replace. In that way , you can ensure the diameter of the new will match the old. It has been my experience that Teflon plumbers tape is not necessary if the correct washer size is in place.

Be sure you shake the can and remove the blue lock tab at the back (side opposite the nozzle). Point the nozzle at the stain and squeeze the trigger. If nothing happens it appears you have a defective can and you should contact Amazon for a replacement.

Hi, Gretchen. If your Spray Doc has a model number on it, order the parts kit for that model. The type of kit all depends on what is wrong with your sprayer. Mainly all you should need is a seal kit for it, that is usually what goes away with time and use. Hope this helps ---Don K.
