Gorenje Steam Wand / Joint Seal Leak

Water or steam leaking from the top or around the steam wand during operation.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn O-rings on steam wand, Loose compression nut, Cracked steam pipe, Scale preventing proper sealing

Safety first: Unplug and allow the machine to cool completely. Steam can cause severe burns.

Repair steps:

Tighten fittings: Gently tighten the nut securing the steam wand to the body (if accessible). Do not overtighten soft brass fittings.
Replace O-rings: Remove the steam wand and replace any O-rings or seals with heat-resistant, food-grade parts.
Descale wand: Soak the wand in descaling solution to remove internal scale that may prevent valves from closing fully.
Inspect pipe: Replace any cracked or pinholed metal steam pipes.
