What should be done?

Floë runs beyond two to three 

minutes.

Air leak from toilet.

Switch off Floë, make sure faucets and outlets closed, 

make sure toilets have not been flushed. Listen to toilet tank 

for escaping air. Turn water supply valve by toilet tank to 

horizontal position to turn off water. Switch on Floë and, if 

motor stops, the system is pressurized.

Floë does not stop or starts and 

stops continually.

Malfunction or air 

leaking from one of the 

connections.

Remove the push-fit connection directly under Floë. Switch 

on Floë and hold thumb on stump of air line pipe extending 

out the bottom. If Floë doesn’t stop when thumb is over pipe, 

there may be a malfunction. Contact customer service.
If Floë starts and stops normally with a thumb held on and 

then removed from the air line, the system is OK. Rejoin the 

connector. Work farther downstream to determine the leak, 

including disconnecting the blue shutoff valve and holding a 

thumb over the end of the air line. Remove the black air line 

from the tee fitting and check for leaks using a thumb over the 

air line to ensure connections are sealed.
If the barbed connectors are used with hose water lines, make 

sure they are seated correctly and check to make sure the 

hose clamps are tight. Also, remove water line from tee fitting 

and check that the ends of the pipes are round and not oval 

shaped.
Leaks can also be determined by applying soapy water to the 

joints and watching for bubbles.
