Best no nonsense, quick guide. But best advise to me was at 6:20ish about winding the water tube to lessen vibration noise. 🤣 No, really. Thanks!!!

Thank you! You know how to remove the nozzles to clean them inside?

@DrBDIY Жыл бұрын

I do not know how to remove the nozzles. I haven't looked. The cleaning process says that the bleach water is enough to flush and clean the nozzles. On one cleaning I poked a qtip up the nozzle but didn't see anything removed. Thanks.

We just bought ours and we used it and we started noticing floaty bacteria in the water. So we just tried this to see if that helps.

How often do you do that? And how did you take the drain cover off the bottom when you overfill your glass .? Thank you, sir 👍

@DrBDIY Жыл бұрын

I clean the unit once per year. The drain cover just sits in a groove so I just push a corner and it comes out.

Does this work for the top loaders too??

@DrBDIY 8 ай бұрын

Each MFR / Model may be different. They should have cleaning instructions in the manual.

@mmylinh8 8 ай бұрын

Can this cleaning method be for any water dispenser? Not just for this model? Thanks again! I plan on cleaning mine as I’ve never done it!

@DrBDIY 8 ай бұрын

I cleaned two different models of Primo dispensers. I am not sure if other models or MFRs have a different approach. Most will publish the cleaning approach in the manual or web site.

I found that the ice cube in the reservoir needs to be melted completely before cleaning. The ice will hold the vinegar and the water will taste like vinegar.

@DrBDIY 4 ай бұрын

Ice cube?

@exxpresslne101 4 ай бұрын

@DrBDIY There is a container inside of the machine that holds the water inside with a giant ice cube. That's how you get cold water.

@DrBDIY 4 ай бұрын

In my water dispenser, compressed refrigerant is cooled and passes through coil that touches the water and cools it. The container stores the cold water.

Ive tried rinising mine like 3 times now and the water coming out still tastes like bleach 🥲 what do i doooo

@DrBDIY 10 күн бұрын

Did you use concentrated bleach? If so, you need to fully rinse more.

I’ve done this but I keep seeing white stuff floating in my water. What could this be? Some kind of looks like a film.

@kingfloyd0001 4 ай бұрын

I'm sorry I'm late. What you see is that your water has become hard water. Your water is calcium dense. Which means that over the course of using your dispenser, there has been a calcium buildup. This isn't a bad thing. You can still drink it. Personally, I find it very hard to get rid of this, and it usually happens to people who either haven't cleaned it or have been using their dispenser for a long time.
