Default Home fill stopped working

I’ve been using my home fill for about a year now. I’ve had no issues with it until my last two attempts to fill my k-tanks. The first time it almost filled them to the stop point but would fill no further. I tried to fill it two days ago and it would not fill at all. Any ideas what might be happening?

Mina, Sorry your having issues with the Homefill. No I can't answer your question, but consider posting in the FB group "Concentrated lampworking for adults" , your question, you might get a response. Check into other FB groups with the boro peeps, lot of knowledge to be found there.
I found a back-up homefill on craigslist, something to consider.

Default Homefill problem

Is the concentrator that is supplying the oxygen putting out pure enough o2. You have to have the setting for it set pretty low to get pure enough o2.

Greg, yes, the concentrator is set to 1 lpm. It had been working without a hitch.
