This happened to me too. Sometimes you have to reset the float, but if that doesn't work you should send it in via warranty.

Is the red switch on the back turned on? Does cold water come out, or does it just not despense at all?

This unit has two heating elements. Likely that one of them is not working. Check the circuit breaker on both connections, they are independent of each other on your breaker box.

In my experience, (I tried both warm water, then hot) the heat element does not work at all.

I had an old one that I replaced due to getting hot water on cold side that lasted about about 15 seconds -there should only be a few seconds of hot coming out of the cold side so if it take more time there may be something wrong with the unit - mine is fine now. good luck- Steve

Are you using hot tap water?, is the red light coming on? and make sure you turn it on to warm up. I do know using hot tap water makes a difference. Other than that I don't know....

Try re-seating the kettle in the heating cradle. The light will come on when it starts heating. It may take a couple of tries to get it to work at first, but it should work pretty good from then on.

With the air temperature at about 11°F the water near the heater was at 42°F. I use an instrument called Kill-A-Watt to check the voltage at the outlet and the power drawn by an appliance. It seems your heater is not working or there is no power supplied to it.

I clean mine in hot water and use pipe cleaners, but there's a cleaning kit. Try replacing the power supply, that's what failed on my pump.

Make sure you turn the water on first then pull the spout down. If that does not work I have the slightest idea.

The valve has a hot water stop to prevent scalding. In order to get it hotter water you need to adjust the factory setting. Your installation manual explains how to do this in a step by step diagram with drawings. If you threw it out already you can download a new one from the manufacturer

Unplug the unit and take it to the sink, pour the old water out then take the unit apart, I use about a Tablespoon of vinegar mixed with about a cup of water take an old wash cloth and wipe around the inside, it will have a built up of water deposit around the heating element and where it get's really warm at, I take an old toothbrush or cotton swabs and try and get as much off as I can but you won't get all of it off and that's ok. and pour a little of the cleaning solution in it then rinse all out of everything. I do this once a week. To keep the water deposit from building up use distilled water. Then fill the tank up and it's ready to use. Hope this help's.

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!
