January 18, 200620 yr comment_84489 well i've already got a m1100 and will be getting another two streams in a year Report
January 18, 200620 yr comment_84533 Were you hitting it to get it going... My M1100 has been running for months. Report
January 18, 200620 yr comment_84536 By the mark on the impellor blade it looks like it's had an impact with a foreign object, could that have something to do with it? Report
January 18, 200620 yr comment_84538 i think that was just from slappers biting it in frustration Report
January 18, 200620 yr comment_84539 at least your one worked when you got it i had 3 new ones in a row with a death rattle. eventually gave up. Report
January 18, 200620 yr Author comment_84546 no hitting involved that might of happened when the shaft broke not sure ???? weird Report
January 19, 200620 yr comment_84610 Even the almighty, omnipotent, hung like a horse Tunzes risk breaking if a hard object goes into the impeller.... Report
January 19, 200620 yr Author comment_84611 i would agree but the only thing thats gone in there is water Report
January 19, 200620 yr comment_84624 I had a Stream burn out on me last week have sent it back for warranty! Report
January 19, 200620 yr comment_84641 They shouldn't burn out. They have intelligent power control. Basically it can tell when the impedance (electrical resistance) of the pump changes (like if the impeller gets stuck) and kills power to the pump, and it turns that irritating screeching alarm on. It's there to stop the pump from any physical damage from overheating, and burning the windings out. The only problem i've had with a stream was after about 3 years, one of the built up calcium deposits around the rotor which stopped it from turning. A soaking in vinegar fixes it. Layton Report
January 19, 200620 yr comment_84655 True they shouldnt burn out, but there had to be one-mine It was a 6080 the non controlled model, I wonder if they dont have the smarts that the others have? Report
January 19, 200620 yr comment_84659 Pretty sure they all have it. It's inside the (formerly blue) aluminium box at the end of the pump. It's the first i've heard of a stream crapping out. Report
