FIELD: instrument engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a hand-held appliance comprising a housing including a reservoir to contain water and a tube to convey water from the reservoir for delivery to a surface. Tube (6) has a portion extending into the reservoir. Tube contains a plurality of inlets, spaced from each other within the reservoir so that, when the reservoir contains water, a tube inlet is submerged irrespective of the orientation of the housing. Tube inlet also comprises a separate valve assembly, associated with each tube inlet so that a valve assembly associated with a submerged tube inlet opens to allow flow of water through that tube inlet and a valve assembly associated with a non-submerged tube inlet closes to prevent the flow of air through said non-submerged tube inlet.
EFFECT: to prevent air from entering a submerged tube inlet.
