Sorry if this sounds stupid but is the battery fully charged ? Mine did the same thing when I first took it out of the box. When the battery is dead it takes four hrs on the provided charger to bring it up to full charge. If the battery gets warm to the touch take it off the charger for sure. The tank should run for 30 min or so before it needs recharging. Other than that check for loose plugs going to the receiver and battery. to tell you the truth it sounds just like the way it went for me when I took mine straight out of the box and tried to run it on the uncharged battery. Sorry but that's about all i've got . Just the obvious. Good luck. Sorry if this sounds stupid but is the battery fully charged ? Mine did the same thing when I first took it out of the box.

Move your tank ... room is too hot .Over kill for that small of a tank ..Put it in cooler room and put a small cooling fan on it.

Hamilton Beach customer service suggested the following: You can try a couple of solutions to help:(1) When the tank is cool and empty, please take a spoon and tap the bottom of it.(2) Please try to push the tank down and verify that it is seated properly in the unit.This worked for us. Ron D

I have not had mine that long and have not had that problem but it might be that the water intake tube is stuck in the top of the water tank.If so, push it down so it reaches the bottom of the tank. Another thing it might be is that calcium and mineral deposits could have built up. I know they sell a Shark water filtration bottle to stop that from happening.

The pump should run at the timer settings. I would think if it runs as you state, either the timer or pump is bad. I suggest new pump.

The best advice I can give you is to buy a different tank. I have come to hate this tank and have bought a different one.

Give it some time, how big is your tank? The red light goes off and on. If it continues to not warm up, return it

Mainly due to the impeller. The top portion must not be working. Did you plug the system in? If you can't here any water movement or the system running, then it has malfunction. Try changing the impeller first.

It might be the tank valve not opening properly. If you shut off both tanks and release any pressure in the lines and then open a tank valve really, I mean really slow it might help. I think the tank valve thinks there is a major leak and shuts off.

Sounds like you need to check the air pressure in your pressure tank/system - most likely the problem - not the pressure switch. The old tanks get waterlogged -not enough air space so need to be drained back - the new bladder tanks seep pressure and need to checked/charged just like a low tire. Hope this helps

Sorry to hear others are having problems also. Metal tracks would be an option. Otherwise a complete refund would be in order as this was not an inexpensive tank. Thank you.

No, I've never had any problems with my tank at all. you may have just got a defective one. you may need to get it replaced.

I'm not an expert in this but I can tell you that the pump on my system is very quiet. There is a pressure switch that tells the pump when your tank is full. Either you haven't ran it enough to fill the tank or the pressure switch is not working (or needs adjustment). Have you tried iSpring customer service? They may be able to help

Clean it out completely and check cords. Also make sure there is water in it, If not it may slow down or stop without it. Mine did that, but after I cleaned it and filled it back up, it was up and running. I think it's because the water was too low. That makes sense to me.

Does it run for 2 seconds and then stop? Or it doesn't run at all. Make sure you fill it enough so the sensor doesn't automatically shut it off. Also don't fill it up too much otherwise it will spill over damaging the unit.

My personal experience is that when I first fill my tank I have an issue with the torch having very little power. But after using it for a bit, it suddenly takes off and starts working at full power. I have no idea if it is due to a flow regulator or not.
