Has anyone had trouble with leaking right below the spray trigger?

I mean't to say they leak only when spraying the handle, but no where else.

I haven't had any leaks. One of them is a bleach solution and one is 50/50 alcohol and water. I don't know about other chemicals but no leaks from mine.

I have realized that all sprayers are troublesome. I don't use bleach, mostly green sprays of my concoction.Really, all of them are inherently flawed. Before using your sorayer, or after, run it under hot water to cleanse the sprayer head and handle. This will parts.Hope that helps.

Yes, have. I bought a set of 3 and the one bottle leaks terribly from the spay nozzle and from the trigger. I feel there should be some type of small o-ring or something in these areas to prevent this. It becomes a real nuisance.

I have not. In others I have and that is why I spent a little more on these commercial grade sprayers.

I hope you get an answer since I was wondering that myself. I left mine in but used it again in the next day or so. It was always ready to fire. I think these other folks are correct because I am sure it would eventually leak out. I like the suggestions for enhancing the seal.

This problem sounds very similar to the problem the Steel Storm typically has. From the description of this gun I wouldn't be surprised if this has the same internal design only with a longer barrel. I had the same problem with my Steel Storm and it acted like the seal on the valve that the firing pin hits is sticking. So I shot some aerosol teflon lubricant down the barrel and calked and fired it a few times and that fixed it.

The way this works is by suction make sure the gun is setup correctly have the long hose connected to the jar that stores the fluid under the jar lid place the small hose it comes with which prevents fluid leaking back out then shut the lid of the jar and connect another small hose it comes with to the other top and connect the gun through that . I have had no problem also try creating a seal by pressing firmly on the fitting where your sucking the break fluid from

Is the bottle snapped in all the? If so you just squeeze the handle and and it will spray. You have to wait for the trigger to release before spraying again.

I placed the nozzle on and turned it until it felt like it had reached the tightest position only to notice it still felt loose and dribbled liquid on the kitchen counter. I proceeded to tighten further until I couldn't tighten anymore and that seems to have stopped leak. I suggest manufacturer of container go to manufacturer of nozzle and come up with a more secure combination.

I borrowed one to do a roof repair and it did leak air when I depressed the trigger halfway but I liked the fact that it hardly missfired or jammed like some of the other nailers I've used so I bought one a couple of weeks later and it also does the same thing when I depress the trigger halfway down, I use the bump fire feature so I hardly notice the air leak.

Ours has never leaked. I don't know about the other brands, but this has a toggle lever so you can turn the water supply to the sprayer off when it's not in use.

Other than the water left over in the grooves from either rinsing or over filling it and then closing it I haven't had a problem with it leaking. It could also be the rubber attachment, I took nine off right when I got it because it was irritating me.

My old nozzle snapped into the new trigger gun just like it did with the original trigger. My old trigger gun began to leak. That is why I bought the new trigger. The new trigger has a quick connect between the hose and trigger handle and between hose and machine.

Lift the spring and you will see a standard connection where the hose from the sprayer connects to the main body of the faucet. If that is where the leak is coming from you could try taking it off and putting thread tape and retightening it. If its leaking farther down, you may have to purchase a new faucet.

I have had mine for almost 6 months without a drop of leaking. Perhaps try reassembling it.

I haven't had this problem. Have you tried tightening it to see if that helps? I remember at least one other reviewer had the same problem. Once he/she tightened it, it no longer leaked. Hope that helps

Since mine is installed, the main valve has been remained open. If your spray head is leaking, my guess is that you have less than perfect parts and/or the installation was not done properly.

I have not had any problems with leaks yet. The quick release is pretty good quality, and both it and the bite valve create a good seal.

I had the leaking problem described here. Took the handle off and took the cartridge out. Looked fine - I noticed the cartridge nut was loose when I unscrewed it so I hand tightened it and it stopped leaking for a day. I took off the handle again and tightened the Cartridge nut with a wrench until snug (the nut is plastic and I did not know how tight it should be. Definitely don't over-tighten). The leak is gone but there is nothing in the documentation on how much to tighten.

I absolutely love this faucet and sprayer and haven't had any issues with leaking. I did have it professionally installed. Perhaps that made a difference? Good luck!
