What is the intake tube
The intake tube connects the water tank or water supply connection to the coffee machine's pump. Its job is to ensure a smooth and steady supply of water, without which the pump cannot work properly and coffee or steam preparation will stop.
How to spot wear
- The coffee machine sucks in air and the pump vibrates or knocks loudly
- Intermittent or weak water flow
- Visible cracks, kinks, or softening of the tube material
- Leakage of water at the connection point
Why timely replacement pays off
A damaged or deformed intake tube causes air intake, which can damage the pump and lead to failures in beverage preparation. Timely replacement prevents more costly repairs and ensures reliable operation of the coffee machine.
How to choose the right tube
Intake tubes vary in length, diameter, and connector type depending on the specific coffee machine model. Before purchasing, check compatibility in the product table.
