MistKing broke?

[KarmaChameleon1337]

Does anyone know how to fix it? I don't think it's jammed, it ran two days perfectly but now when I plug it in it makes the running sound but no water comes out of it..

Lets operate under the assumption that it isnt, and troubleshoot it
Did it run dry before it stopped working? Do you have pictures of how it is setup?
There could simply be air in the line, and you need to re-prime it. Just unhook the line going from the pump, to the frist nozzle, from where it connects to the nozzle. Then run it. If water comes out, push it back into the nozzle.

It might have run dry a little bit but I wasn't home, it looked like there was still enough water for it to have run when I got home. I'll try what you said.

Its fine if it does. It would just explain air in the line.

You went thru 5 gallons of water in this short time??

Usually placing the reservoir higher then the pump helps when this happens just to get water running through again.

Haha jack that would be difficult, my cage is almost 5 ft high and it's on a 3 ft high desk.. I'm 4'11.

just to get water running through again.

Balance it on your head


My resevoir and pump are 6' beneath the first nozzle. I have never had an issue with getting water through it. Even if it runs dry.
Not saying it doesnt happen.
Make sure all the connections are pushed in EXREMELY well. Could be the culprit

you guys/gals are funny I didn't mean higher then the nozzles.

Glad its working, I swear these things don't break. Watch mine be the first though since I just said they don't.
