Hi I have a steamist SM-46. I inherited it with the house a few years ago but it never produced steam only lit up I recently decided to open it up and take a look and it looks like it has a broken part on the back side of the tank . I’m assuming this is the entire problem ? Is this fixable ? Expensive cheap ? Can I do it my self ? Thanks for any Help
Dismantling to discover the fault should be fairly straightforward to anyone with handyman skills.
Picture isn't very clear but I am guessing there has been a small water leak causing one of the heating element terminal posts to corrode through. It would be a good idea, before starting, to contact the manufacturer or dealer to discover the price and availability of the parts that could be needed - element, seals, gaskets...
