Question 2

How to clean a clogged valve on the Gloria Prima 5 Plus sprayer?

Accepted Answer

If the valve of your Gloria Prima 5 Plus sprayer is not functioning properly and the spraying is weak or irregular, the problem often comes from the clogged filter located in the quick shut-off valve. Here’s how to clean it.

Steps to clean the valve filter:

Stop the device and completely vent the tank by pulling on the pressure gauge with the built-in safety valve to release the compressed air.
Remove the quick shut-off valve (the plastic device located under the pump) by gently unscrewing it.
Locate the filter inside the valve. It is a small mesh grid.
Rinse the filter thoroughly under running clear water, ideally with a soft brush, to remove all residues and mineral deposits. Avoid using harsh detergents that could damage the plastic.
Also clean the spray nozzle with clean water. Never use your mouth to blow on it, as indicated in the manual.
Let it dry for a few minutes, then reassemble the valve by screwing it back on properly.

Preventing future clogs:

After each use, completely empty the tank and rinse it with clear water to prevent the accumulation of mineral residues and limescale deposits.
Regularly coat the valve seals with original GLORIA silicone grease to ensure proper functioning and avoid clogs.
Only use clean water or approved chemicals (acetic acid up to a maximum of 10%) to fill the tank.

If the problem persists: If after cleaning the spraying remains faulty, the problem may come from wear of the piston’s O-ring or a failure of the valve itself. Entrust the repair to GLORIA's customer service, which can check and replace parts if necessary. Always use original GLORIA spare parts to ensure compatibility and durability.
