My handheld Conair garment steamer is heating up but not producing steam. How do I fix this?

Time to return under warranty. There are no user serviceable parts.

Clogged unit, it's over heating. Run vinegar through it to remove deposits.

It's saying low water but it's full a d no steam is coming out.

Check the steam holes at bottom to see if holes is pluged with caculm build up that plug holes. To clean holes us calcum cleaner. Use decression . Use distalled water. Not tap water. There is probably a float inside of tank. Deposit calcum probably has stuck it. This is dependent on the brand and how old it is.

Have you checked the float?
Sometimes that gets stuck, or collects mineral and stays in the last position.

When I use mine I hang the hand held part from my closet door, while I am waiting for it to heat up. When the hose gets too much condensation, from the steam, it leaks out... This will also happen if you try to use in the motion of an iron. The hand held part needs to be at a vertical position at all time to prevent leaking.

I think is maybe the hose connections. You need to make sure both ends (by the T-nozzle and by the body of the steamer) are secure. You have to align the nozzle with the rod, and push down, and twist. Try watching instructions for connecting both ends on www.HandBookLive.com under appliances category. There are GS4 video instructions and GS10 (this one has just been posted yesterday)
hoe it helps. Otherwise I would return the steamer. Nowhere in the operating instructions does it say that you can control the amount of stream produced...

Fill it with boiling hot mixture of half water half vinegar. Let it sit two hours. Rinse and repeat as necessary. Hope this helps you out.

If you need instructions go to www.HandBookLive.com. There are videos for GS4 and GS10 under Appliances category. It says that steam is produced in about 5-6 minutes after you turn power on. Also there is a low water indicator light on GS10 that kills power to teh unit if the water level is low. Maybe that's the problem... Not sure if sc20 is similar
