Many reviewers talk about the difficulty setting up and the low power pump.Of course the lower power pump is necessary to DRIP a low water volume, it not designed to be a fountain.I have two of these units, the culprit seems to be the flow rate adjustment valve.I solved mine by opening the valve all the way (and while off of the pump and hoses) run a small drill bit through it opening it up. Probably a small nail or any solid object could do the same thing.I have done this to both of mine with success.Replacing the valve inline, full open, I plug in the pump. It now starts every time I need to (placement, cleaning). The small foam filter in the pump has no effect on volume.Once it flows then I adjust the drip rate.
