Does anyone know how to troubleshoot the system if suddenly less air seems to be coming through and the make up is sputtering out? Tried new pod and that did not help. One day it was fine, next day low air flow, etc.- could not use. Thanks!

Try removing the rubber portion between the airport and the gun. Sometimes putting the actual rubber on the gun then aligning it with the gun will work also for more air. Hope this helps!

try using the little stick on the pod by going in and out a few times, and shake the pod very good, make sure the funnel is completely on inside the pod, and leave the little plug off the pod, set the machine on high till it comes out and then lower the air flow.

I wish I could help.. I had the same experience. I decided to return it for a refund and I purchased something similar but from a different maker-Conair. Sorry I couldn't help, Good luck

Best thing is to unplug the filter. Then prime it by removing the cap on the intake tube, pour water until it fills up. Tightly secure the cap then run. If that doesn't work, then while it's running unsnap one of the 4 tabs and lightly lift up, that'll usually purge the air. If no go on those. Remove your hoses and check them for air leaks. I actually used Vaseline on each hose connection and on the main seal around the pump head. That all finally worked for me.

Had this happen to me once. I had too much liquid in both chambers. Only put in sugg amts. and see if that helps.

After owning this machine for 7 months (had our first for about three years) I'm having the same problem as of this morning. I'm going to try all the tactics that billf recommends. Anyone else rectify the problem?

I can only speculate that the tank is not draining either because something is clogged or the pump that pumps condensation build up to the tank is broken. The time that I contacted Danby about maintenance questions they were of no help at all which is why I will not purchase another Danby product. If you contact Danby they are going to tell you to tote your unit down to a repair center. The condenser coils should be cleaned annually but Danby offers no instructions on how to do it yourself and will not want to hear from you. Danby people are jerks.

Did you test the water? Did you run it for a few hours after installation? I thought ours was a bit cloudy too in the beginning but it turns out it was just very small air bubbles. We've had ours 6 months and are thrilled with it!

I noticed that happening to mine and upon closer inspection I saw vapor coming out of the bottom of the "face" plate. I wiggled the face around until I seemed to get a good fit and it hasn't happened since then. That was about a week ago.

I just bought this unit in December and I have the exact same problem. I love the unit. It is on my bedroom carpet so I am going to try to put a mat underneath it to see if that helps and I will try to change the water level a bit as another person suggested. My guess is that the water sensor works well and the system needs to be level. Someone else told me to put it up at the highest setting and that may help. I really don't want to have to replace it and its too late to return. It really is an awesome unit. Looks great too

I have not had that issue with mine. Are you trying to have fog run continuously? It will only produce fog for a limited duration and then needs to reheat.

Same thing happened to mine . . . took it apart and let it air out -- no success! I think there's a flaw in the design because it should be waterproof or not able to get water in it all . . . this thing is terrible!

It could be that the temperature in the room has been reached. Also, I believe the manual says that this could happen and that there is a mechanism at the pilot that traps dust, etc. That needs to stay clean. . My suggestion - call the technical assistance line and they were VERY VERY helpful in resolving an issue that I had!

to what product are you running thru it? I have never run into that problem! I do know in every system when something runs thru it, it does need some cleaning of the lines depending on how much you use it and what product you use. It is a good system but it is still a machine. I would research from the manufacturer. I know I didn't really help but I hope your research helps.

I have had little luck. Sometimes it shows back up after an extended period of time. Sometimes I have tried restarting my equipment to bring it back. My best solution was switching to a LaCie product. It works more like I expect with far fewer issues.

Make sure you have the unit set on the little screen with the sun pattern , that meens its in cool mode .f its in dehumudify mode,the little droplets pattern will show up on the small screen , you wont get much cooling when its on that cycle ...Thats done by using the MODE button . I found this out that same way , room wasnt getting very cool in dehumidifiing mode , , ...I had to go over the directions to get the modes down properly ...

I would say that your unit is defective, yes. I used my humidifier all last winter in my office, and never had this problem.

Sounds like you have air trapped in the system. You could try taking the filters out and flushing the system with water and reinstalling the filters. I'm assuming that you have no leaks in it.
