Philips Pressurised Steam Generator GC8220: Why does the steam stop going to the iron.

Wed, 11 Mar 2015 15:15:41 -0700

My GC8220 starts steaming OK, pump is working, then there is a click sound and the steam stops going to the iron. If I undo the Calc-Clean rinsing cap slightly when still hot there is lots of steam and still with pressure....but not at the iron when pressing the steam button. What can stop the steam getting to the iron.

Philips Pressurised Steam Generator GC8220: Why is my steam generator doesnt produce steam

Sat, 19 Jan 2019 00:48:08 -0700

Dear friends,

I am new in the forum .

I have a GC 8220 steam ironing station, and I have the following problem :

- Button on/off : ON, red light all around, but none of the green lights which are indicating that “no steam”, “less steam”, “medium steam” …etc. are ON-> means no steam in the boiler

- Water tank is full with water

- the anti-calc button (red light) is blinking .

I have done the anti-calc procedure as described in the “directions for use” of the steam ironing station ( mechanically shaking the station many times with a little water inside and than pouring away the water) -> some calcium rests have been seen.

But the red light bling is going on, I suppose that no water in the boiler, because ??? or the pump is not pumping, or the conections “water tank” to boiler is “closed” by calc particles.

What would be your oppinion to be done ?

Thank you,

Adrian from Germany

Shark Ultimate Professional: steam button failed on my Shark Proffessional iron.

Tue, 08 Apr 2025 15:32:49 -0700

My steam button has failed on my Shark Proffessional iron. Button stays down. Can I repair this?

I saw a blog from someone with the same problem and they tried prying the button up and griping the piston below it to raise it. This seemed to work for them. I tried and the button will not come off when pried up. I cannot see a way to open the iron from the top. Anyone with a solution?
