My pressure value is loose and will not stay down to build pressure. Any way to fix this?

The only option I can think of is to replace the seal around the valve, but I would check on the Bialetti website to see if there is a way to contact them with this question.

My guess is that you are loosing pressure. Not much, but some. Most likely a faucet is dripping somewhere. Or toilet. Even a small drip adds up over 30 minutes, just enough to trigger the switch to build pressure again. Check again. Inside & out.

Mine didn't require too much pressure. Perhaps you got a defective item? Maybe contact the company who sold it to you and ask for an exchange. I had to do that on my first one too. The first one had a broken housing and caused problems with the button. Good luck.

I have to imagine there would be a better way to achieve that. First, I don't think this product is of high enough quality to handle constant pressure, it's really just a hose hook up. Second, as a tenant I would reset mine as soon as I found it.

A pressure gauge should have been included. I would contact Amazon and let them know the gauge was missing so they could send you one.

mema666, i think the issue would be how hard you thing is sucking. i have not seen my do this. maybe test the pressure that is being sucked up?

Am so sorry I cannot answer your question. I bought this as a gift for my son. Guessing you have kind of a vapor lock. Maybe put a very thin knife in and try to release the pressure that has built up. Know I need to do that when I open goods I have canned. Good luck.

The gauge should not fill up with water ,I believe you have a defective pressure gauge

I have used mine a few times with no leaks even left it hooked up a few hours to test and it held set pressure. Maybe try new male connector on your hose and see if it helps

Did you try adjusting the switch shut-off screw on the end of the pump. This adjusts the pressure the pump will maintain. My guess is it needs to be turned clockwise if this is the problem. There should be a manual with the unit that has troubleshooting guide.

I would suggest that you haven't screwed the valve on to the pot firmly enough. It needs to be 'finger tight' so that it still allows movement up and down but does not come off even when it is washed.

Just twist it one way to loosen and the other to tighten. Maybe there is something wrong with it. Check with the manufacturer. Sorry I could not be more helpful

Raise it all the way up, and then it will release and allow you to lower it.. Hope this helps �

Wrap the air hose outlet with the supplied Teflon tape put it on thick this will This should give a quarter to half less rotation just play with it then hook it up and it should hold pressure

The connections are a bit loose; my suggestion would be to keep the heavy hose propped up by putting something under it. It seems to me the weight of the hose causes the ends to experience too much stress. Also, I try to minimize the slack by keeping the hose as short as possible. Don't extend it out unless you have to. Hope that helps.

Robert is correct, I was wrong. It seemed at the time I had a little more of flow but it is impossible. If you have a pressurized tank there should be a shrader valve on the tank to check the air pressure of the bladder inside of the tank to boost water pressure, you may be low on pressure in the bladder. You may need to use an air pump to raise the air pressure but be careful, I don't remember what the pressure should be. Check with Watts Premier web site.

I love the fixture, but our pressure decreased dramatically after I installed it as well. We've kinda gotten used to it, but it's not normal and I really wish I had more pressure at times, especially when filling large pots with water. I hope there is a way to adjust it. My pipes were clean and strong, and my hoses were brand new. It's the fixture.
