    Not sure how many people here have worked professionally with draft systems but I'll give it a shot anyways.

    I am having issues with the float on our FOB. It is stuck down and no matter what keg I hook up it will not float back up once I purge the line.

    Any ideas?

    Is there a vent knob on your FOBs?Some of those FOBs require opening the vent during line cleaning.Just going off memory haven't played with one in a while.Maybe thats a problem.Also when was the last time it was cleaned?

    There is a vent button on top which is used every time a keg is changed. Also it's cleaned about once a week and only 6 months old. We have called someone out to look at it, but I was hoping to find a common answer online first.
