insinkerator bio-charge cartridge leaking

Mine hasn't leaked but it could if the cartridge cap is loose. Check to make sure the cartridge top is screwed on tight and that it's fully seated. Contact InSinkErator CS if it won't stop leaking. It's warranted.

So far ours is not leaking. That said it was only installed 2 months ago. Thanks for the heads up about this potential issue. I'll keep an eye on it and update my review if it becomes a problem.

You want to make sure the cap is sealed tightly before putting the cartridge into the container and screwing it on. If this is what you are doing and your cartridge is leaking, I would say that yes, it is defective.

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.

Mine started to drip a few weeks after installation. Had to buy a new cartridge. Its been drip free for about a year, but it seems to be starting again.

If you find out please let me know. It still leaks. We have to chip out the icd weekly before it melts on the floor. We have tried taking off the back and unclogging some of the tubes and it did not work. Tried to call company but they can't help unless I want to pay $$$ for a new warranty.

The answer is 'I don't know'. Mine is too new for it to be an issue. There is a form on the ISE website for such inquiries at http://www.insinkerator.com/en-us/Service-Support/Pages/Contact-InSinkErator.aspx I'll look through the papers that came with mine and if there is a parts list there (I doubt), I'll figure out a way to get a copy of it to you. Sorry I cant be more help.

We've had the same issue with our coffee maker. Unscrewed the plate on the bottom of the machine and found an orange "rubber" water hose had cracked and is leaking. I was able to remove the hose, off the cracked portion and reinstall with just enough length remaining, though this will probably happen again. I will go to a hardware store to look for replacement hose materials, its not too hard to replace with a needle nose pliers or forceps are best.I don't know if this is an issue with cheap materials or city water issues, nevertheless I was disappointed and will not be buying another Cuisinart. Its only about 1.5 yrs old. We've had the same issue with our coffee maker. Unscrewed the plate on the bottom of the machine and found an orange "rubber" water hose had cracked and is leaking.

Where is it leaking from? Make sure the filter is in place and the water basin is fitting into the base properly. Otherwise, I would return it because it sounds like you have a defective one.

The air at the top of the new cartridge needs to be bled off. I just left my grease gun in a hot place (July sunshine) for a few minutes with the pump end up and loosened about 1 turn.

sorry, I returned my unit because it was leaking everywhere. I never got any further. Perhaps there's dried soap in the nozzle? try a open paper clip and see if there isn't a clog

yes, my cuisinart DCC-2000 leaks as well, so I keep a tempered glass cutting board under the machine. I also keep a folded papertowel in the drip tray.

Because it is leaking. I had the same problem and called Hamilton Beach and they are sending me a new unit. Had a choice of whether to wait until the end of the month when they will have a new improved one of the same model or a different model. I chose to go for a different model. All I had to pay is $13.00 for shipping.

There is a tube inside the machine that dumps a little bit of water into the tray. Some sort of overflow protection, or pressure relief. A little bit is normal. I empty my tray ~once every 2 weeks, and clean it at the same time

Vitamix is leaking metallic fluid as well. Do you think it is seaping trace amounts into container? I got to contact the company rep...

Take the top apart clean it with a stiff bristle brush and lube the Oring with vaseline. Clean the canister threads with the brush and lube the top lip of the canister with vaseline. Hayward also makes a lubricant they supply with a new unit. Over tightening the unit just makes it harder to undo and no O-ring makes mine leak. Good Luck!
