Title: Wonder wand blocked jet
Post by: jeff1966 on March 21, 2008, 02:53:00 pm

After using my Ecell for 7 years I've never had blocked jet.Been using my Powrflite & Wonder wand for 2 months got a blocked jet this morning, took the jet out gave it a good flushing out under the hot tap but no joy had good look can't see any obstruction.Filters have been cleaned weekly nothing blocking them either.Anyone any advice.

Has the rubber seal in the jet broken up?
Mine did.

if the jet itself is clear (you can see light thro the aperture then you need to look elsewhere.
presume the other 2 are ok?
then must be a blockage of the inlet to that jet.
just a trickle of water thro the one inlet tube should result in a flow thro all 3 jet tubes (with jets removed)
if not then you have ablockage of something substantial and it coud be the rubber seal Phillip refers to
