No steam coming out of iron, does it need descaling and if so how do you do it? Thanks Iron is Wahl zx506-1

Steam irons become clogged from water deposits. You may clean your iron with white vinegar and water. You should use distilled water. Make a Mixture of 1/2 water and 1/2 vinegar, and pour the mixture into the iron as you would when you fill the iron with water. Turn the iron on 'steam' and let the mixture run through. You may need to do this a few times, depending on how clogged the iron is. After cleaning use distilled water to fill the iron, becuase distilled water leaves minimul deposits behind.

Sometimes using vinegar and water will clean out your steam iron - but smells really bad. Usually the brown gunk is a sign that there is corrosion so even if the vinergar works, you should plan on buying a new iron in the near future.

there are 2 controls to make the steam. a dial on the base which must be turned. Then the temp must be above silk and nylon and then when you press the button you will get steam. You must have bothe the dail and the button. One without the other will not make steam. Obviously you need water too

no steam coming out from Bosch B35L. Sny suggestions

Drain the water if don't need steam function, that's the best thing you need to do. Some iron when there is water like the one you use, when if its full on water really split out water, keep water in minimum or drain all of it.
I hope my advise help you.

Steam irons are built to run on tap water, there will not be any problems whatsoever unless the water is hard, which may leave sediments inside the iron after evaporation.

Pour vinegar in the tank, that will clear the scale.
Flush it out when you have finished.

If you talking about descaling the built up calcium deposits in an iron, then there are many commercial products. You can find them in your grocery store, and reading the ingredients you may find mild phosphoric acid which is used in descaling large boilers.

But I prefer to use white vinegar (mild apple acid?) half and half mixture, poured into the iron and let heat for a few minutes and after cooled down dump the mixture out, repeat if necessary. When you refill the iron to use squeeze a little lemon juice in the water to make the iron goods smell lemony instead of vinegary, and the lemon juice is also acidic and will remove some of the scale.

The cheapest and most environmentaly friendly de scaler is spirit vinegar otherwise known as white vinegar.
Pour some in the tank and let the iron get hot.
Steam on some old cloth a few times and then when it is clean, refil with de ionized water and flush through a few times.
Hope this helps.

This can be checked by you as there is not much of mechanics . Make sure that the steam is generated in good quantity so that the cord gets full pressure, if not clean the base perfectly so that there is good contact -- no debris .. make sure with a air pressure or water jet the connection tube is clean and not damaged at any points, if so the steam will not flow .
Once this is established you will get good steam pressure or else the connection tubing cord needs a change.Also make sure there are no issues in the iron to block off steam.
