How do I get the water from sloshing around?
622671
I've used the pillow for several years -- and like it -- but have never been able to completely eliminate the "sloshing." But the critical part is how completely the air above the water is squeezed out. It requires a rather tricky "hugging" motion sliding up the pillow and then getting the plug in without letting air back in. With a little practice you can get it to the point where there is no disturbing sloshing when just moving your head around on the pillow, but I still get some of that when moving the pillow around in bed-making, etc. Good luck!

I've had the same problem! It's impossible to get the water out too! Could there be a missing gasket? If you get an answer, please let me know. Thanks!

I fill my unit I/2 inch from the top. If the water still flows poorly, check the pump, it may have a blockage. Rinse the pump real well. Hopefully this will help.

I have the same problem. I just wrote to Homedics to ask them where I can get it. I couldn't find it on their website even though they have a section for parts. In the meantime I've been using it anyway. I don't fill the water tank too much and just quickly put it into place. It seems to work okay this way but you have to be doubly careful to not let it tip over. Hope that helps. Patricia

Also put a little dob of Vaseline on the rubber washer at the bottom of the water tank. Makes a heap of difference to the running.

I tried to adjust it too... no luck.... just use less water in the tank and aim it to the side.... the beta will get used to the current :)

Shake the water and separate into micro water drop , and use the wind to blow it out

Hi Kathy. In my experience, although it's been a long while, no. Part of the problem was that the system is fighting gravity with the water on the bottom and it just couldn't compensate. Great concept. Poor execution.

Make sure you aren't putting too much water in. I tend to overfill mine and I have a watery mess when I do. There's a fill line and you can't go even the littlest bit over that.

Just buy the chlorine tabs and chlorine holder that floats in the pool. You can adjust the bottom for more or less, and you just let it float around, no worries!

Reseat the bin containing the water. You probably didn't push hard enough or align it properly. After a couple of times you'll get used to it!

Clean the surface with alcohol, tubbing, not the drinking kind. And ince you attach it hold it for a few seconds. It took a couple of times for me too.

it sounds like the water is puming out to fast for the water coming in. the pump is probably too big for your application. try reducing the outlet hose size to about 3/4" instead of the 1 1/4" it is set up for. if the float had about 8" of travel instead of 3" you would be fine. my pump works fine for me, i am happy with it.

Pablo, you need to squeeze all of the air out of it without losing any of the water getting out. It' difficult to do but worth it if you get the air out.

We had the same issue, I think anytime the cover isn't solid the puddling will always happen. We just pushed the water out.

Make sure the pump is properly seated into its base and the suction cups are properly secured the back. Mine was a little loud as well until I did this. Also if it starts to overflow it's because the filter is dirty

Just give a little tug on the cord, and it floats right up to the top, then just grab it by hand. The water buoys the weight of it, so you are not really pulling the entire weight by the cord.
