Solutions for Your Continuous Confetti Cannon

Experiencing an issue with your confetti cannon? This guide will help you diagnose and solve the most common problems quickly.

Common Issues and Solutions

The Cannon is Not Firing

• Cause: This is typically caused by a CO2 supply issue.
• Solution:
  • Verify the CO2 tank: Make sure the CO2 tank valve is fully open and the tank is not empty.

Weak or Inconsistent Confetti Flow

• Cause: The confetti may be packed too tightly, or there could be a problem with the CO2 pressure.
• Solution:
  • Fluff the confetti: Gently fluff the confetti in the hopper with your hand to prevent clumping.
  • Check the CO2 pressure: Ensure the CO2 tank valve is fully open.
  • Adjust the ball valve: Slowly open the ball valve on the cannon to find the optimal flow setting.

The Cannon Is Making a Hissing Sound

• Cause: This usually indicates a loose connection or a leak in the system.
• Solution:
  • Immediately follow the Emergency Shut-off Procedures from the safety page.
  • Check all connections: Inspect the high-pressure hose and all valve connections to ensure they are tight and secure.
  • Contact support: If the hissing continues after checking all connections, do not use the unit. Contact support immediately for assistance.
