steam hole in cover?

no, but there is enough gap around the lid to let the steam out just the same.

My heater did this and I found that a tiny hole in the pilot flame tube was blocked by dust. I removed the lower panel (tricky without more disassembly) and used a brush and a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the small opening. When I had access I also cleaned the thermocouple that touches the pilot flame. Had to do this twice. The heater has been ok for over a week now. I read about this on a blog about the heater.

There are holes. I just wrote a review for the cover on amazon if you want to read it.

I have the same issue and have not been able to find a cover anywhere. Please let me know if you find one.

The frame that it slides in has a hole in the proper place for condensation

Is the plastic piece on? I removed mine.. Maybe use a toothpick to clean the steam hole? Just guessing. Its a really basic mechanism

There is no hole in top for venting steam. Lid is designed to sit slightly above the base. This will allow for some venting. Made in France

An insert that has holes sits about an inch or so above the bottom for steaming

If you send me address, I'll send you a steamer with instructions. I received a few for free, more than I ca use. Short instruction is lift handle and turn and pull out to reveal hole. Use mini scooper and place 3 scoops of salt and use container and fill with water once. Place handle back, plug in. Will start to steam, wait 10 second before use. Will garmet hung and steamer upright, use back and forth motion lightly on clothing to remove wrinkles. Hold steamer with cloth to refill with water as needed, but unplug steamer from handle first. After use, be sure to rinse out steamer thoroughly, shake side to side. Water may be brown, this is normal. This is important. Kevin

Actually, around the small center disc are several open areas (inner side of the lid) which allow steam to escape.Excellent product btw.

NO steam holes. This unit does not have steam. I love it as I quilt and I use a dry iron.

That's a good question! I don't recall seeing anything in the description about it, and honestly, never thought about it. As long as the steamer does its job, I had no reason to turn it upside down to look. But, since you asked, I did turn it over to see. It looks to me like there are 3 small vent holes - one in each &lt;^&gt; right angle section (sorry, thought I could get angular shape via keyboard symbols, but guess not!) Two of the vent holes look similar to the recessed screw holes and the third one has a protruded plastic hood that partially covers the hole, which would cause the steam to go outward, rather than downward, I think. Hope this helps!

There should be ventilation holes in the lid, but I've certainly never noticed any pinhole in mine. If it doesn't leak when filled with water, it may not be an issue. However, I would consider exchanging it.

Yes. There are holes on 2 sides of the lid, one side has smaller holes the the other. Turning the lid will keep most of the steam from escaping.

no, I've recently noticed a little bit of leakage. Still like the cover, though but I'm not sure where the water penetrates from. Maybe it's a seam.

Nope, no cover. It's just a big open pot with a hole near the bottom for the hose to go through.

Do you mean around the steam pipe if there is a hole in the pipe it needs replaced but around it fine.
