Water cooler leaks?

99% of the time, water cooler leaks are the result of a leaking water bottle and not from the cooler itself. This may be the result of a hairline crack in the bottle which alters the pressure within the cooler from the normal “vacuum”. The pressure change draws water into the tank and causes it to overflow. We encourage our customers to remove the bottle from the cooler and test it with a different bottle. If the issue does lie with the water bottle, the changing of bottles will put a stop to the leak.

Water cooler not dispensing water?

Usually, the reason behind a water cooler not dispensing water is an airlock that is a result of the air pressure that is forced into the water cooler as the bottle is placed on it. We recommend that you remove the water bottle from the water cooler, and then place it back on the water cooler. While you do this, ask someone to hold both taps open until water comes through them.

Water is not getting cold?

A surprisingly common cause for water cooler water not getting cold is that it’s not plugged into the wall socket or that the mains power switch isn’t turned on. Check that the water cooler is plugged in and turned on and to also check that the power cable at the back of the cooler is firmly pushed into its socket.
