It loses water pressure after about one month. It happened to two units I have. Waterpik support says I need to descale it. Makes no sense.

Try putting half a cup of white vinegar in the container of the Waterpik with the water. Let is soak for an hour, then run as usual. If this doesn't work because you have extra-hard water, repeat with fresh vinegar solution. It should descale product and repeat regularly before it clogs again.

The water pik has different levels of water pressure one of them is fairly soft on the gums , i would take the unit to a nose doctor and show him to get his opinion if it does not harm you and you have aproblem with your nose it will be great for you. as in all matters of life get the right help.

If you have decent water pressure now then it should be fine. The size of the hole in the tip of the pik that the water comes out of is so small that it doesn't take a lot of water to move through, but since it's so focused that small amount of water shoots out at a heavy strength. My water pressure is just OK, and after hooking up the Oral Breeze I couldn't even tell the difference. I've been using my Oral Breeze for 5 months now almost daily, when I'm out of town I actually miss my morning routine and wishing I could bring it with me. I don't think my teeth have ever been this clean on a constant basis. If you have decent water pressure now then it should be fine.

After about 3 months, mine begin to leak & sprayed water on the back wall. Since this one of yours is new, try taking it apart & reinstalling it. If this does not work, ask Church and Dwight for a replacement one.

Sounds like its clogged up. It might need to be descaled. Since I bought it I only use distilled water and haven't had any issues. I love this little steamer.

I don't really know, but a coworker of mine had that problem. He thinks it was because after his shower he would shake it from an end to get water drops off. I haven't had any problem with mine and I have worn it pretty much constantly for 8 months now.

Hey Johnny, The pressure is good, but I had to return it after 5 uses because it stopped working. I've read the same complaints from water pic users. I liked the product overall. Maybe I just got a bad one.

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. It happened to me too. even if you used the correct amount of water recommended. I don't bother using mine anymore.

Either you have hard water and need to clean the unit, or possibly something got into the machine. I have taken off the plate on the bottom of the unit (kind of a long triange with 3 screws) this was recommended from one of the critiques I read. I only use bottled distilled water, as our's is so hard, and it will keep the life of the machine extended. Hope this helps.

Waste pressure is comparative to WaterPik. This is my 3rd water flosser over the last 30 years and I like it as well as the others I have had. The other 2 were WaterPiks and the last WaterPik lasted less than two years.

Hi water that is not flowing all the time becomes stagnant, it doesn't matter what containers you have it in. I have several different containers in different rooms including this one. After several fillings I have to soap all of them out. Every three weeks just give them a good cleaning.

It recommends every 6 months to replace it or if your water pressure slows down .It is just like a fridge filter it just screws on. it can not be cleaned out . I have a shut off just before it to make it easier to change.

I am not impressed,we have had the Nuvo H2D for about 4 years. There are just the two of us retired, we receive a new cartridge every six months but it is effective only for about a month. Thinking of getting a salt water softener.

I don't know, but I would call the Waterpik company, which I believe is in Connecticut. Their customer service dept. will definitely help. I have done that in the past for other reasons.

I have had two units now and they both have done this. My husband and I think it's due to hard water and the mineral build up. You can deep clean it, we have used a mineral cleaner on it not sure what the company would think of that. However we are back to having to get a new one due to build up. We will try distilled water only next time.

This just happened to our YouBrew, it is the second time. The first time it happened about a year ago and Breville replaced it. I just called Breville and they are replacing this one as well. We do descale the machine on a regular basis. I will say that their customer service has been excellent.

It definitely has enough water pressure to clean my teeth well. The water pressure at my house fluctuates a bit and I noticed that when the water pressure is higher the WaterPik works better. Having a good charge on the battery is also very important. This is a very good unit though I wish the battery lasted longer.
