What to do if my Hotsy 5700 Pressure Washer runs but won't spray?

  robertcamachoAug 14, 2025
  If your Hotsy Pressure Washer runs but won't spray, make sure to squeeze the trigger of the trigger gun. Check that the water supply is turned on by opening the water supply valve. Inspect the pressure nozzle for clogs and clean it if needed. Also, check the inlet water screen for any blockage and clean it if necessary. Lastly, ensure the pump isn't sucking air by filling the detergent container and checking for loose hose clamps or fittings.

Why is the spray pressure low on my Hotsy 5700?
- S
  Sandy BraunAug 17, 2025
  To address low spray pressure at the nozzle of your Hotsy Pressure Washer, fully open the faucet to ensure an adequate water supply. Inspect the hose for any kinks or damage, and use a 5/8" minimum hose. Check the inlet screen for any debris that may be causing a clog. Additionally, inspect the pressure nozzle for partial clogs or damage, and clean or replace it as needed. Finally, if air is being drawn through the detergent inlet line, refill the detergent container and ensure that the pick-up screen is fully immersed.

  If you're experiencing poor or no detergent flow with your Hotsy Pressure Washer, start by refilling the detergent container, ensuring the pick-up screen is fully immersed, and that the container is at or above the level of the pump. Check the detergent screen or hose for clogs and clean them, always starting with a clean detergent container. Also, inspect the detergent injector check valve for clogs and clean it.

Why is my Hotsy 5700 not producing hot water?
- M
  mcconnellmarciaAug 25, 2025
  If your Hotsy Pressure Washer isn't producing hot water, first ensure the burner switch is in the ON position. Next, check that the gas valve switch is also in the ON position. Verify that there is an adequate fuel supply. Finally, confirm that the pump switch is turned on, as the pump must be running before the burner will light.

  If your Hotsy Pressure Washer won't run, first ensure the pump switch is in the ON position. Check that the power supply is properly connected. Also, inspect the fuse or circuit breaker in the electrical supply line and replace or reset if necessary, making sure to use circuits of adequate capacity. Finally, if the motor circuit is overloaded, allow it to cool down before placing the pump switch in the ON position.

What causes the unloader to cycle on my Hotsy 5700?

  Kevin LongAug 31, 2025
  If your Hotsy Pressure Washer's unloader cycles when the trigger gun is opened or closed, try opening and closing the trigger gun several times to remove air from the system. If the issue persists, the unloader may be defective and need replacement. Also, check for water leaks between the unloader valve and the trigger gun, inspecting fittings, hose, and the trigger gun itself for leaks, and repair or replace any damaged components.

Why is my Hotsy 5700 Pressure Washer providing poor cleaning results?
- C
  Cheryl GregorySep 3, 2025
  If your Hotsy Pressure Washer is not cleaning effectively, ensure you are mixing the detergent per the manufacturer's instructions and that powdered detergents are fully dissolved. Verify that you are using the correct detergent for the specific cleaning application. Check that the detergent valve is opening properly, and that the handle or knob is not slipping on the shaft.

Why is the pressure relief valve leaking on my Hotsy Pressure Washer?
- N
  nguyenpatriciaSep 6, 2025
  If the pressure relief valve on your Hotsy Pressure Washer is leaking, it could be due to excessive pressure from a defective unloader valve, which would need replacement. Alternatively, the relief valve itself might be defective and require replacement. Another possibility is a dirty relief valve, in which case you should clean the relief valve seat.

  Brett CarterSep 9, 2025
  If your Hotsy Pressure Washer has an uneven spray pattern, the most likely cause is a partially clogged or damaged pressure nozzle. Try cleaning the nozzle first, and if the problem persists, replace it.
