step 1
Time the cleaning of the water cooler when your water container is empty or very close to it. These can be very heavy to lift. You also may lose a lot of water due to spillage.
Step 2
Disconnect the cooler's power cord from the outlet. Make sure your hands are dry when you do this.
Step 3
Take off the water bottle from the cooler. Drain the water from the reservoir. Make sure to drain the hot side also if you have both hot and cold water.
Step 4
Use hot water and a mild dish detergent to clean the exterior handles and trays. Wipe down the sides and back of the water cooler.
Step 5
Remove the water guard and clean it as well as the area located underneath it. This should just pull right out.
Step 6
Unscrew the spigots and wash them with mild dish detergent and warm water. Dry thoroughly.
Step 7
Put the water cooler back together and let it air dry before plugging it back in. Allow at least 30 minutes for the water to heat up if you have a hot water feature on your cooler.
