Good morning,

Jo, you could try these people, they are AirSep distributors.

Fantastic, thank you Kev

Glad you asked that Jo as I've been wondering the same thing - I'd be interested to know if you find someone as mine is feeling a bit sickly ???
I've just spoken to these guys on the phone, very friendly and helpful. A full service from my new life elite plus pick up and delivery is £145.00 (parts extra if needed which would have to be ordered in from USA)
I've emailled Q and he's offered to send out new filters, will keep you posted Diane x

Thanks Jo :)
What's up with yours? Mine has suddely started rattling and wheezing and won't put out more than 3.5lpm despite ne evidence of a leak (suspect new part required!)
Mine overheated and then stopped :o
It worked again after that but it's made me nervous and I have a nasty feeling it may need more than a filter ::) It would be good to find out how to check the insides, even a diagram would be good so I know what I'm looking at ???
martin does a service but dont know if thats general or just for his ones ...might be worth a shout though ...i figure the innards are pretty much the same ???
I'm looking for a diagram/manual at the mo Diane ;D
I did check in with Martin, he services Devilbiss Sunrise and Companion models but not AirSep at ths time. Q has sent me checklist of things to do to see if I've got bunged up filters etc so I am going have a proper look this afternoon.
I have one too and managed to find a service manual on the web. It at least gives you an idea of whatyou are looking at.

Fantastic, thank you Amanda x
wow - thanks for that, I'll have some reading to do :o
It looks like for it is a case of poor care on my part as this oxy has sat unused in my dusty studio for a year. The filters are filthy and the oxy pressure was at full capacity when I did a test run without the felt on in place :o
Thanks for starting this thread Jo, I've just spent the last hour checking out my oxy cons and swapping fans and it's definitely a broken fan so I need to start googling for a replacement. All I needed was a nudge in the right direction with some backup documentation :D
fingers crossed you find one quickly here's the manufacturers website http://www.airsep.com/index.html
I'm wondering if the one that Martin sells will fit as they look to be similar, can't get Tuffers on the phone atm though ???
Hmm...having heard Vonnie's super quiet one yesterday, I'm thinking mine might not be 100% happy.
its as loud if not louder than the old style one I have from Martin
oh, and thanks for the link to the manual
Mine used to purr like a kitten until yesterday ;D
Woohoo, I fixed my oxycon all by myself :D
I got this fan http://www.maplin.co.uk/230v-main-axial-fans-1810?ordercode=WY08J to replace the broken one and I now have 2 oxycons connected to my bobcat. Just tried it out for the first time and it's hot, hot, hot ;D
Nice one Diane ;D
oh well done!
I need a 'smug' emoticon ;D
Yay!! Well done. And having two oxys is great. I got a second one at Flame Off and I love the heat.
Hya, my new to me oxycon is this kind and I am having trouble with it, can anyone help. The little ball is bouncing around and the oxygen surges and the torch whooshes and the little cones get big and the flame changes. I sent Martin a pic but he doesn't do these ones.
I've got one of these that came from Q at Glassworks. I had a similar problem which was fixed by changing the internal filter. I would try contacting Q to see if you can get one from him. There was a thread about trying to get a job lot brought into the country but I'm not sure if it ever happened.
Good luck
ETA the oxycon maintenance sticky thread has instructions for changing the filter.
Ok thanks, wheres the oxycon sticky please?
Sorry, it's here http://www.frit-happens.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=21111.0 (http://www.frit-happens.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=21111.0)
Thanks!
Martins sending me a part, the black plastic barrel shaped bit that is in the inside of the oxycon behind the outside blue valve and connects from the inside to the outside. Does anyone know what this does, is the blue valve meant to be turned any particular way, it looked closed at first but seems to be sealed from the inside?
Hi Jammie, do you have a copy of the service manual? If not then PM me your email address and I will mail you a copy.
It might help to answer your question.

I have it I downloaded it from one of the forum posts but couldn't find about this bit. :)
