A Quick Guide On How To Clean Bottled Water Coolers

However, a water cooler can only be effective if it's clean and ready for daily use. When they have water coolers, Perth residents may be unaware that they need to be occasionally cleaned to obtain the best results. If you hire a water cooler from Aussie Natural, we will regularly service, clean and sanitise your cooler as part of your contract. If you want to clean your own water cooler here is a brief how to guide.

What You Will Need to Get Started

You will need (in no particular order) half an hour to carry out the cleaning and some cleaning supplies, including: a fresh pair of rubber gloves, a clean bucket with a 7-8L capacity, a little unscented bleach, some paper towels and if you’re cleaning a hot and cold cooler a small plug or cork.

The Process for Cleaning All Coolers

Follow these steps in order to clean any water cooler.

1. Disconnect the water cooler from the power source.
2. Remove the water bottle (it’s easier when empty) and drain the water from the blue tap and dispose of it.
3. Remove the water guard, this may be a pressure fit, or it may need to be twisted loose. Don’t rush this, take your time and work out how it fits together.
4. Remove the baffle that’s located inside the water reservoir.
5. At the bottom of the water reservoir, you will see a pair of holes that are connected to the taps. If you have a hot and cold cooler, the centre hole is for hot water, and you need to plug this with your cork. This will prevent chlorine from getting into the hot water tank during the cleaning process.
6. Wash the water cooler, taps and exterior areas with clean hot water and a mild detergent.
7. Rinse the cooler with clean water and dry it with the paper towels.
8. You're finished; reverse the steps outlined above to reassemble the water cooler.
9. Reconnect the power supply and try out the water cooler to make sure everything is working.
10. If the water cooler isn’t working check to see if you’ve forgotten a part. If you cannot correct the issue call out a professional to take a look.
