Is the water coming out of the filter supposed to be very hot

The distiller boils the water, then cools the steam to condense the water from the steam. I would say that the water entering the glass collection container is comfortably warm. (it's minus 6 degrees here in Rochester NY so that might affect my opinion of comfortable.)

yep, that is normal (it functions by boiling the water to vapor and drips out, so it will be hot for a good bit.) I like to make some ice cubes out of it to have on hand if my husband is impatient for cool water. I personally enjoy warm water (with a little lemon) as it is closer to the body's temperature. Don't forget to add minerals back to your distilled water (a little pinch of pink salt and a pinch of baking soda will get you some great alkalizing water)

Since mine is inside I have not had to face that issue, but we have elevated the heater off the ground incase of accidents with the lining. I think there is less of an issue with the filter.

Yes its normal. Just let the water run for about 5 mins and it should be good

I can't say for sure, but it seems like its steaming as it is moving through. I've poured a cup pretty quickly and it was hot.

I am unsure but with a breeze behind the unit and the water running through the filter, it is quite cool.

The water that comes out is as hot as the tap water you put in the reservoir. I just add straight hot tap water, so apx. 120 degrees, or hotter depending on your hot water tank settings.

I haven't had this issue at all. No problems. Check to see that the filter is in right and screwed shut, make sure it is attached well to the faucet

Correct. However, I've had this system for years and obviously, sometimes you turn on the water not realizing the last person to use it had it on hot and it goes through for a few seconds. I think they mean don't try and filter hot water. I've never noticed any difference or rapid deterioration of the filter after this has happened.

Most likely the filter is dirty and not absorbing the water as readily. Either than, or the air is not as dry as it was last year-hardly likely.

I have not had that problem, check that your hoses are in the correct position in and out, also make sure that the filter is filled with water.

No. Something may be wrong. Is the plastic it come with off completely? check inside. Make sure the filter is in correctly.

Just snug the portafilter to the rubber is good, it won't take much to tighten when the machine gets hot. If water is backing-up you might be tamping to tight . . or filter is plugged.

Hi friend. Did you let the water run for 5 min after initial installation the fist time? It is in the correct position. Also make sure the filter is on the right position. If this keep happening then I believe that it is defective. I hope not.

It is supossed to be out or low on water but mine is also showing F. I think I need to change the filter before it will go away but I am not sure.

The water doesnt ever get hot unless I add it hot. Maybe mine doesnt work like it is supposed to, but it has never heated the water.

The water is extremely hot and not very cold (a little cooler than room temp). The only thing I dislike about this unit is how long it takes to fill up anything more than a single glass of water.
