Does anyone else have issues with the unit overheating and spitting out water?

I haven't used my airbrush machine consistently but when I do, it works great and I haven't had any problems.

Hi Peter,So far I haven't had any problems with it, I have only had water in mine and I was it on a regular basis.

the output temperature is sporadic, although its adjustable , it doesnt work right, that is if if you turn the cold water on to lower the temperature at the facuet or shower , the unit shuts down and the water comes our icey cold. It drives me batty.

to be honest, I would stay clear of this model. The leak's and temperature control are not worth the hassle. I recently sold my for $25 just to get rid of it.

Hi Rochelle ~ I've had my up and using it since September and have not experienced overheating and/or the 88.88. I would definitely be contacting the manufacturer or where you purchased it from if it's overheating and get another one. Good luck!!

It sounds like some water has leaked into the unit making it unstable. I've had this problem and discovered that the seal around the top was the problem.I actually had to pry it open enough to get the water out and then re glue it. Good luck.

Yes. I have problem with it. After few weeks from installation, when the water flow is open, the panel makes same noice and the screen of thermometer is off.

On the winter mode setting and low flow setting the water is extremely hot. Our unit only ran for a short time, however. I'm not sure what failed, perhaps I needed a pre-filter? A downside is that I would have to send the unit to South America for servicing.

First question are you using distilled water? Any other water will partially plug ducts and spit and sputter. Second, is it fully heated? If not then give it five more minutes or so. If it is still not working as it should, your machine needs some repair. My machine provides continuous steam. Good luck...when working properly, the machine is great!

We did have a problem with our unit. I called the service number, tried the fix he suggested but it didn't help. After a few more calls, they did send me a pre-paid return label. Several weeks we got the same unit back --- with the same problem. Luckily, the unit heats well but I need to give it an occasional kick to stop the loud rattle. Guess my answer is "good luck getting a replacement".

I am very unhappy with mine. Bought it in 2013 and in less than a year I had many overheating issues. Online just now because I am fed up and will replace, after today vacuuming about 150 square feet of combined tile/carpet and having it overheat and automatically turn off. have tried filters, etc., nothing changes. In addition, from the first time we vacuumed cat and dog hair would clog the connector between hose and bag because of how the two connect. Continually having to manually unclog hair for it to not lose suction. I'm surprised so many people like this model. Wish I had returned promptly to Amazon. I am very unhappy with mine.

No, I haven't. I use mine a lot. I'm in Arkansas where it gets pretty hot and humid. I started using it in the winter and keep it filled longer than I should. I only fill it with water thats been ran through a Pur water jug that came from the kitchen sink. I personally, am very satisfied and haven't had any problems with mine.

Good morning, I have had mine for only a year and it has not had any problems. However, I had a couple of thoughts that might (or might not!) help. Have you tried a different plug in? There is a safety limit switch that will turn off the machine if it overheats that may have failed. Finally, the heating element may have failed. If you have not done so you may want to contact the people that built it - they are here in the USA so they should be available to help. Good luck, I would really miss mine! Dave

I have the same issue and don't have a solution yet (other than cleaning up the leaked water each day). Does anyone have a solution?

Yes I had the same problem and ditched it and found a better humidifier. Our unit leaked from the very same spot. Other people have had the problem. We've had this one for about 6 months: Crane Drop Shape Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier with 2.3 Gallon output per day and it seems to be working well. No filters. It's a little bit of a pain to clean, but a little bleach solution and voila, it's clean. For our needs, this has been a much better humidifier and NO LEAKS!!!!

While I don't have the unit (bought it for a friend), if the item isn't working, and you can't return it - if the item is heating, I'd try to see if "maybe" the water spouts became clogged? If you have no other recourse, you may wish to check with the manufacturer and ask them what they suggest? It may be something as simple as steam-cleaning the machine with something they've found works well?
