TIL my hydrafacial machine can just stop mid-treatment for no reason

Last Tuesday I was halfway through a hydrafacial on a regular client when my machine just shut off. No error code, no warning, just dead. I had to grab my backup spray gun and finish the extraction manually, which took forever and made my hand cramp up. Called the repair place the next day and they said it's a known issue with the pump on these older models. Anyone else have a machine fail on them in the middle of a service? What did you do?

Classic, the machine decided your client needed a manual extraction detox lol. Hope your hand forgives you soon.

Yeah had one of those last month, ended up just switching to an electric pump and the machine finally shut up about it. Hand felt way better after that.

Just wait til it decides you need a "calibration flush" next. @michaelgrant got the smart move going electric, my hand's still cramping up thinking about it.
