Servicing for Bottled and Plumbed-In Water Coolers
Bottled Water Cooler Servicing
Bottled water coolers should be professionally sanitised at regular intervals to help maintain hygiene and water quality. We typically recommend servicing every 3 months, depending on usage, environment and the number of users.
Plumbed-In Water Cooler Servicing
Plumbed-in water coolers need regular maintenance to keep filtration performance high and the dispense system clean. In most cases, filters should be changed every 6 months, with servicing scheduled to suit usage and site conditions.

FAQ’s
Have a question about water cooler servicing? Here are some of the most common questions we’re asked.
What does a water cooler service include?
A water cooler service typically includes a full sanitisation of the unit, internal and external cleaning, inspection of key components, and performance checks. For plumbed-in water coolers, this also includes filter replacement where required. Our engineers ensure your cooler is hygienic, working efficiently, and safe for everyday use.
Can you service a water cooler we did not buy from Drinkworks?
Yes, we can service most bottled and plumbed-in water coolers, even if they were not supplied by Drinkworks. Our experienced engineers are familiar with a wide range of models and can assess your unit to recommend the most suitable maintenance plan.
How often should a bottled water cooler be serviced?
We generally recommend that bottled water coolers are serviced every 3 months. Regular sanitisation helps maintain hygiene, prevent bacteria build-up, and ensure your water remains fresh and safe to drink.
How often should a plumbed-in water cooler be serviced?
Plumbed-in water coolers should typically be serviced every 6 months, including filter replacement. However, this can vary depending on usage, environment, and water quality, so we may recommend a tailored servicing schedule after assessing your site.

How do I know if my water cooler needs servicing?
Common signs your water cooler may need servicing include unusual taste or odour, reduced water flow, visible dirt or residue, or if it has not been serviced within the recommended timeframe. Regular servicing helps prevent these issues before they arise.
How long does a water cooler service visit take?
Most water cooler service visits take between 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the type of unit and the level of maintenance required. Larger or more complex setups may take longer, but we aim to complete all work efficiently with minimal disruption.
Can you help with filter replacement and sanitisation?
Yes, filter replacement and full sanitisation are key parts of our water cooler servicing. We ensure your filters are changed at the correct intervals and your system is thoroughly cleaned to maintain water quality and hygiene standards.
