How Do You Change A 5-Gallon Water Cooler Bottle?
So you drained the water bottle and it’s time again to change it. Follow these simple steps to change the bottle with minimal splash or spillage. Remove the empty water bottle and set aside. Use the damp cloth to clean off the rim of the cooler. Use the cloth to clean off the new water bottle as well. It has been sitting a while and this will keep dust and other debris from getting into your water cooler. Remove the plastic cap from the top of the bottle. Just grab the little tab and pull. The bottom half will separate on a scored line and the entire lid will pop off with the ring. Hold the bottle neck in your dominant hand while cradling the bottom of the bottle across your other forearm. Hold the edge of the bottle bottom with your non-dominant hand. Slowly tip the bottle until it starts to pour into the cooler. Once it starts to fill the cooler quickly stand the bottle up from the bottom DIRECTLY into the cooler. Arrange the bottle to sit evenly in the middle of the cooler opening.
