What to do if cold water is not cold in BRIO CLNLPOU520SCF2?
First, ensure that the power cord of your BRIO Water Dispenser is securely connected to a functioning power outlet. If the water is still not cold, check that the green cold-water switch located at the back of the dispenser is in the 'On' position.
The Brio Water Dispenser, model CLNLPOU520SCF2, is an appliance designed for household and similar applications, providing convenient access to cold, room temperature, and hot water. It is suitable for use in staff kitchen areas, farmhouses, hotels, motels, bed-and-breakfasts, and catering environments. The dispenser is equipped with a bottom-loading water bottle cabinet, making bottle replacement easier and reducing the need for heavy lifting.
The primary function of the Brio Water Dispenser is to provide on-demand access to water at three different temperatures: cold, room temperature, and hot. This is achieved through internal cooling and heating systems. The dispenser utilizes a pump to draw water from a 3- or 5-gallon (12- or 19-liter) water bottle, which is stored in a cabinet at the bottom of the unit. Water is then directed through a filtration system before being cooled, heated, or dispensed at room temperature.
The dispenser incorporates a filtration system consisting of a sediment filter and a carbon block filter. The sediment filter performs a coarse filtration, removing mud, sand, iron, rust, suspensions, and impurities from the original water. The carbon block filter further reduces chlorine, taste, odor, lead, and cysts, ensuring cleaner and better-tasting water.
A self-cleaning ozone feature is integrated into the dispenser to sanitize the tanks and water lines. This feature produces ozone, which kills bacteria and biofilms within the water system, and then converts it to harmless oxygen that is emitted into the air.
The Brio Water Dispenser is designed for indoor use on a hard, level surface, away from direct sunlight and explosive fumes. It requires a properly grounded outlet and should not be used with an extension cord. Adequate airflow around the unit, particularly at the back, is crucial for optimal performance.
The dispenser features an indicator panel that provides visual cues regarding its status. A power indicator light shows when the dispenser is on and blinks when the self-cleaning feature is operating. Separate indicator lights for hot and cold water illuminate when the dispenser is heating or cooling water, respectively. A bottle indicator light blinks slowly when the water bottle is empty and needs refilling, blinks quickly when the filter is nearing its expiration, and remains steadily illuminated when the filter has expired.
Dispensing water is straightforward. For cold or room temperature water, users simply place a container under the corresponding tap and press the cold or room temperature water button. For hot water, a child safety lock feature is implemented to prevent accidental burns. To dispense hot water, users must press and hold a red lock button while simultaneously pressing the hot water button. This safety mechanism ensures that hot water is only dispensed with intentional action and direct supervision, especially important when children are present.
The bottom-loading design simplifies water bottle replacement. Users open the water bottle cabinet door, slide out the empty bottle, and replace it with a full one after attaching the bottle adapter tube. The dispenser will not pump water from the bottle until the cabinet door is completely closed.
Regular maintenance is essential for the longevity and hygienic operation of the Brio Water Dispenser. The manual outlines a schedule for various cleaning tasks:
The self-cleaning ozone feature is a convenient maintenance tool that should be used weekly. Activating this cycle involves pressing and holding the ozone switch for five seconds. During the 90-minute cleaning cycle, it is important not to dispense or drink water, as it may result in an odd taste. The manual recommends performing this cycle during periods of non-use, such as overnight or when staff are away.
Filter replacement is another critical maintenance task. The dispenser's bottle indicator light provides alerts when filters are nearing or have reached their expiration. When it's time to replace the filters (recommended every six months or 950 gallons), users twist out the old sediment and carbon block filters and twist in new ones. After replacing the filters, they must be flushed for 5-10 minutes until the water runs clear, and the filter reset switch should be pressed three times to reset the filter indicator light.
General care and maintenance include keeping the dispenser in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight, avoiding placement on paper or foam surfaces, and ensuring it is not used outdoors or in areas where it can be splashed by water. If the dispenser will be unused for more than 24 hours, it is recommended to turn off the hot and cold water switches and drain any remaining water. The cabinet, controls, bottle adapter tube, and water taps should be cleaned with a soft, clean cloth and a food-grade sanitizer or bleach each time the water bottle is changed or refilled. The drip tray and grid should also be emptied and cleaned as needed.
