How To Clean Your Water Dispenser

How To Clean Your Water Dispenser

Splash Water Company recommends cleaning your dispenser every three to six months. Before you begin, you'll need the following items:

  1. Clean Rubber Gloves
  2. Paper Towels
  3. Scrub Pad
  4. Boiling Water

Follow these steps:
  1. Unplug your dispenser and remove empty bottle.
  2. Drain any remaining water through spigot.
  3. Carefully fill the reservoir with boiling water (you may add 1 tablespoon of bleach if you like). Wait 3 minutes. BE CAREFUL NOT TO SPILL BOILING WATER ON YOURSELF
  4. Use rubber gloves and scrub brush (do not use steel wool or anything abrasive) to clean reservoir.
  5. Drain water through spigot. Pour more boiling water in reservoir, then clean spigots, body, and handles.
  6. Rinse one last time with room temperature tap water.
  7. Drain all water through the spigots.
  8. Place full bottle of water on top.
  9. If you have a hot water dispenser, remove the air from the tank by opening the hot spigot until water flows freely. Plug in the unit and allow a few minutes for the water in your dispenser to heat up or cool down.
Remove the drip tray and clean with mild soap and warm water.

Before putting a new bottle on your dispenser:
  1. Wipe the new bottle's neck with a damp clean cloth.
  2. Wipe the top of the dispenser and the lip of the reservoir.
  3. Install new bottle.
