Dirty Water Cooler with bacteria and algae

Maintaining a clean water cooler is crucial for health and safety, but the traditional cleaning process can be time-consuming and cumbersome. The International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) recommends that 5-gallon hot and cold water cooler dispensing systems be cleaned with a bleach solution every six weeks or after every other bottle change, whichever comes first. This process takes approximately 45 minutes.
