My Home Pure 2-in-1 steam cleaner is not producing any steam. I can hear the motor running but thats it.
The nozzle appears clean, but I used a pin (approx 20mm long) from another appliance to clear in in case of blockage, but nothing
I havent used it in about a year, and even before that I didnt use it much.
I have lost the instruction leaflet so help trouble shooting appreciated. Ta
Re: Steam Cleaner Help
Hi,
Could be limescale in the tank or on the element which could be making it over heat? Alot of these appliances DO NOT recommend the use of a descaler. Could also be a blockage formed in the hose itself which cannot be cleaned out. I have a Polti which has a special coated tank and limescale simply rinses out. But don’t think any other make has this feature.
If it hasn’t been used for a year something could have congealled anywhere in the machine itself, hose or other nozzles, and with everything being of such narrow bore to allow for good steam pressure is impossible to clean. They are good inventions but a pain when they go wrong.
Please unplug if working on it. :plug:
Sorry its not the best news, Don may beable to help though. 8)

Re: Steam Cleaner Help
Hi
If it`s this Home Pure machine apart from checking for blockages as HWL suggested, there is not a lot else you can do. Looks like a Chinese import to me. there is no service back up listed in the UK and Googling for spares reveals nothing either. Time to replace with a new one methinks.
Afternoon Oliver :waving:

Re: Steam Cleaner Help
If it has to be replaced Polti are the only way to go, they were the original and are the best, plus designed in such a way blockages rarley form. They are not cheap but well worth the money.
Afternoon Don :waving: , guess who forgot to check this thread last night! :innocent: 😳Oliver.
