It gets hot and the pump seems to be working, but I can't get water pumped through the hose. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thank you Report Spam or Abuse RE: Steam Iron Not Working Post By Pauline (Guest Post) (10/08/2007) I have a polti steam generator iron that lets out steam when in standing position, as though it has a leak. I am desperately trying to find a service engineer in South London. It is just over two years old, and is my second iron in 3 years.

You may have to do this a couple of times but this will clean it up. Hope this helps!!! geri Report Spam or Abuse RE: Steam Iron Not Working Post By (Guest Post) (09/17/2004) Vinegar-diluted with water will cure this. Fill your iron with a vinegar/water solution -about half and half and plug it in and let it sit upright and steam itself clean. When the solution is all gone, run thru plain water which should steam nicely. Using distilled water in your iron will keep this from happening.

First, empty all of the water out of the iron. Then take some of vinegar and fill up the water reservoir. Let it sit a while (1/2 hour or so), then turn on the iron to the steam position. If it has a sprayer, spray some, too. Then turn it off and let it sit a little longer because the vinegar will have worked its way into the plumbing of the iron. It will help dislodge the gunk (probably mineral deposits) that are clogging the iron. Then dump out the vinegar and put in clean water and repeat the process. If it seems to be working but you are getting a lot of stuff out of the iron you might want to repeat the whole process again. Make sure to iron onto something you don't care about, a rag or old towel. If this doesn't work, you probably need to get a new iron but it's always worked for me. To keep your iron clear of mineral deposits, buy a jug of distilled water to use only for your steam iron. - Susan Report Spam or Abuse
