How can I improve the draw in my water cooler?

[bertha katzenengel]

I know this is begging for a copycat, but I'm series!!!1!!11!

I frequently tip the bottle so that it glugs more water into the - hopper? If I don't do this, the water comes out in a trickle, and when I finally do get a bubble, it's a little one.

Any suggestions?

1. Anyone?

:shrug:

I'm going to bed now, but maybe the West Coast & overnight crews can solve all my water woes.

3. Check the baffle?

We had that problem once, and it turned out that the baffle (I think that's what it's called) - the movable piece that sits below the outlet of the bottle - was seated wrong and didn't allow proper flow. We adjusted it and all was well. If yours doesn't have a baffle, then I am stumped too. Take it apart and check for a clog in the spigot?? (I am not very mechanically inclined, as you can see.) Anyway, good luck.

5. we have one of those, and it seals the bottle.

i guess that's not supposed to happen, eh? :) thanks for the tip.

4. There has to be a valve that lets air back into the bottle.

That's what the bubbles are. If it's stopped up, the water will flow slowly, and you won't see big bubbles come up in the bottle. But I don't know where the valve is located.
