According to the detection by the relevant environmental health monitoring departments, the cold and hot water in the barrel water dispenserNot washed for three monthsIt will generate a large number of bacteria, viruses, sediment residues, heavy metals, and even red worms, seriously endangering people's health.
Generally, the bucket neck of bottled water is poured and placed on the "intelligent seat" of the water dispenser. Then, the hose in the machine imports the water into two water tanks, one of which is hot water and the other is cold water, in addition to the function of hot and cold water, the two flags can also precipitate impurities in water. People often repeatedly change bottled water, but ignore the fact that there is still a certain amount of water in the tank of the water dispenser. This water will hide the pathogenic bacteria. Over time, it will naturally become a breeding ground for bacteria. Many consumers may find that the water dispenser itself is a water purification device, and the bottled mineral water is clean. Even if the water dispenser is cleaned and disinfected occasionally, there will be no problems, so there will be various foreign bodies in the water.
Therefore, the water dispenser must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected on a regular basis. At present, the common method used for cleaning the water dispenser liner is to use the decontamination effervescent tablet or special disinfectant. At present, major supermarkets sell such products at a low price.
The cleaning method is as follows:
Step 1: remove the power plug, remove the bucket, open the sewage pipe port behind the water dispenser (generally a white plastic knob), drain the remaining water. Then, turn on the hot and cold water switch to drain the water.
Step 2: remove the "intelligent seat" (that is, the water dispenser in contact with the mineral water bucket), use alcohol cotton to carefully scrub the internal and external sides of the water dispenser liner and the lid, to prepare for the next step of disinfection.
Step 3: configure the disinfection water according to the descriptions of the decontamination effervescent tablet or disinfectant, import the water dispenser, fill the whole cavity with the disinfection water, and retain the water for 10 ~ 15 minutes.
Step 4: turn on all the switches of the water dispenser, including the sewage pipe and drinking water switch, and clean the disinfectant.
Step 5: Rinse the entire cavity of the Water Dispenser with clear water continuously (this process is recommended to move the water dispenser to the bathroom to ensure ample water), turn on all the switches to clean the rinse liquid.
Step 6: put a cup of water and smell the smell of chlorine. If there is, then let the water go, until you can rest assured that there is no smell.
Experts suggest cleaning the water dispenser at least once every two months. Cleaning should be performed every month in the summer.
