Could be an air lock. Strip it down, empty all water out and put back together. This has worked for me in the past. I have just done mine today and is producing quicker although still slow due to temperature.worth a try

It sounds a lack of water pressure. Some of these things to do with water pressure can be weird.

I connected my merlin up originally in the bathroom as the info said it would run off mains pressure but no water came out the merlin at all.

I reconnected it to the pipe as it comes into our flat and it worked fine at 25 ltrs about every 40 minutes.

I can't remember what the pressure was but according to the pressure gauge, the pressure was the same in both places. A plumber did explain it to me but I didn't get what he was on about but to the plumber, it made sense.

I've now plumbed it in the kitchen and use a booster pump and I get 25 litres every 30 odd minutes at 6.1 bar.



Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.
