anybody had a stoppage of waterflow? slowly went to a trickle and then pretty much quit altogether.

sounds as if the quick connect fitting with internal filter has plugged . follow this link to the care and maintenance manual which will explain procedures which might fix the problem. http://anaheimmfg.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Hot-Water-Tank.pdf

I have the same issue and don't have a solution yet (other than cleaning up the leaked water each day). Does anyone have a solution?

I had the exact same issue with mine. Make sure the quick disconnect is seated properly and the hoses aren't kinked. Also, taking out some of the sponges helps a little and increases the flow. That worked for me for a little bit. I eventually filed a warranty claim and within a few days API had sent me a brand new one and it has never leaked. You may need to do the same.

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. It happened to me too. even if you used the correct amount of water recommended. I don't bother using mine anymore.

Are you filling it to the max fill line? It usually takes a couple of minutes for the water signal to reset. Mine did that and I lightly banged the sides and it started working. If that's not the problem then you may have to call Edge Star for help.

Not sure about restoring flow. Mine was dripping and replacement fixed it. Easy install

Some times if the filter is tightened too much it seems to shut off the water flow. Try loosening it and see if that works. If not then call your supplier,I have found them to be very helpful.

Sounds like you got a defective one. Mine was easy to swap out, no issues. I made sure the center post was properly inserted into the bottom of the valve. I swapped out my old one because it was doing the same thing, letting water out of the waste when in filter mode. It seemed to be related to the lack of spring tension keeping the handle down vs anything else. Good luck.

I experienced a significant reduction in water pressure - enough that my sprinklers won't work properly with the device connected. I had to disconnect it. I keep looking for someone to manufacture a "full-flow" backflow valve that will not reduce water pressure, but I haven't found it yet...

I feel like it is not getting full water supply. That is the only reason I know of that it would do that. How are you running it, like, in line with another pump or what? You may want to rebleed all your lines and then check it again.

I am having the same problem with mine. My friend tested it and found it works okay at some water pressures but not others.

Mainly due to the impeller. The top portion must not be working. Did you plug the system in? If you can't here any water movement or the system running, then it has malfunction. Try changing the impeller first.

The only guideline I can recommend is watch the flow rate. When it slows down, replace the filter.

I bought two valves from Lowes. Same problem at first: as long as it's hooked, water just run through. What I found was this is the default status for the valve. To solve it, you need to connect it to the timmer, adjust to manual watering for 1 min, when 1 min is up, the valve shuts off. No problem.

We had one of these. At first it worked well to keep the water flowing. But after 90 days or so it quit. I returned it

It was kind of funny after it was installed. My plumber/electrician (guy that installed it for me) and I were trying out RPM settings. I had it set at 1000 RPM and he asked "Is it running?" (could not hear it) and we both look over to the waterfall running and it's like "Duh!".

I had same problem after just little over year old. I thought water level may have gotten low too many times. Just bought used one this time. 4th pump in years.
