Hi, we have a Zip instant boiling water hydrotap. I had to change it's filter yesterday and then it displayed, "Water leak-Isolate mains". I looked all over the place but found no leak. It also wil

Hi-

Three things

• Water supply valve may not be completely open.
  Open valve completely.
• Water supply valve may be blocked by foreign material or may not be large enough.
  Supply valve must have a 1/4" opening for water to fully supply ice maker. Many self-piercing valves do not have this big of an opening. Replace water supply valve with one that has a 1/4" opening.
• Water filter may need changing.
  If equipped with a water filter, replace filter canister or cartridge.

Hope this help

Thanks for using Fixya!

Shut off water supply valve. Relieve water pressure by dispensing water. Unscrew water filter. Examine to see if the gasket is damaged or if filter was loose and just needed tightening. Or simply replace water filter with the correct water filter that your GE refrigerator calls for.

Hi there the common problem found with your car is one thermostat sizes and will not let the water pass threw this in turn will cause boiling in the head and overflow bottle .2nd have a look at water hoses around engine and radiator they leak a bit , if no leaks are found my guess thermostat

Hello Marie Baxter: If you suspect the water dispenser is leaking, make sure it is the hoses coming from the filter and not the actual filter.

Sometimes the clamps on the hoses for fridge water filters can come loose or the hose itself could crack; in which case the hose would need replacing (or tightening the clamp), and not the filter.

If you clearly find the filter is leaking, the best thing to do is make sure it is installed properly.

If it is securely in place, then you may just have a defective filter and changing it will solve the leaking.

You will need to remove the filter, which is typically located in the back of the refrigerator and inspect it to see what condition it is in.

•For instance, if it is black or looks dirty, you probably will want to replace it.

•Moreover, when there is a leak or a clog, you will notice a dramatic decrease in the output of the water dispenser tab, which is another sign there may be a leak in the water filter. If you know the water filter in your refrigerator is leaking, then you can take the water filter out and see if it has anything loose on it, but typically if it is leaking, it probably is best to replace the water filters for refrigerators.

•This is especially true if you use the filtered water from the refrigerator as your main home water filter systems.

•Moreover, if it has been awhile since you changed the filter; it can become clogged over time, which can cause it to leak.

When you are faced with having a leaking filter refrigerator water unit, it helps to think through the pros and cons of fixing the leak vs. replacing the refrigerator water filter.

Hi, I would turn the power off first for 5 minutes and then back on again, this normally works for me. You can also check on the front screen of the unit that it is in "Normal Operation" Cheers Pete

SOUND LIKE HEAD GASKET LEAK.CHECK ENGINE OIL FOR SIGNS ANTIFREEZE CONTAMINATION..OIL WILL LOOK LIKE MILK SHAKE.IF USING WATER IT EVAPORATES AT 212 DEGREES. ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE CAN CLIMB UP TO 220 DEGREES.IF OIL IN CRANK CASE LOOKS GOOD.ADD 50/50 WATER AND ANTIFREEZE. ANTIFREEZE WILL RAISE BOILING POINT TO KEEP COOLANT FROM EVAPORATING.SEE IF YOU LOSING WATER ITS BOILING AWAY LIKE WATER IN A TEA KETTLE.

Water bubbles for a few different reasons, here are a coupleI your radiator cap is bad and no longer holding pressure; this would lower the boiling point of your coolant making boil over and bubbled or a bad head gasket and the gasses from the combustion chamber would leak in to the cooling system creating air pockets also keeping heat from blowing hot.

Look under the passenger side of the dash, behind the carpet. Feel the back side of the carpet for dampness. If so, try this: In the same area, look for a black rubber hose that comes from the heater plastic box, and pokes thru the firewall. See if it is plugged up. This is the drain pipe for the AC box, and the cowl panel if the side drains are plugged up. Try that, and please get back to me.

Hi,
Does it sound like it is boiling water at all?

If it is boiling, but not giving hot water, then the one-way valve is stuck.
If it is not getting hot (on the soleplate base) then usually the element has blown.

These machines use the steam generated by boiling as a means to move the water up - like a geyser, and need the heat to move the water.

Replacement elements are available, and the valves usually just require cleaning.
