Why is my water cooler beeping?
Some Quench water coolers are equipped with leak detection. The leak detection may have detected moisture in the bottom of the water cooler. This is often caused by an overflowing drip tray, or excess condensation in the water cooler. Troubleshooting instructions are below:
- Unplug the water cooler
- Remove the drip tray and front panel
- Wipe the bottom of the cooler with a paper towel
- Let air dry for 30 minutes
- Plug the water cooler back in
If your water cooler is still beeping, please email us to request service.
My drip tray is overflowing or draining water, what should I do?
Drip trays on most Quench water coolers are not drains and may need to be emptied periodically.
My water cooler has slow flow when dispensing water or is not dispensing water at all, what should I do?
Please follow the steps below to troubleshoot your water cooler.
- Check to see if water will come out of your sink to ensure the water to the building has not been shut off.
- Check the water line (the tubing connected to the water cooler) to ensure the line is not pinched
- Check the ball valves (the valves along the water line) to ensure they are in the “on” position; the switch should be parallel to the water line.
- Try again to dispense water from the water cooler
If your water cooler is still not dispensing water, please email us to request service.

How are bottleless water dispensers installed?
Typically, installing a Quench water system is as easy as installing a coffeemaker or ice maker. Our certified, insured, and highly-trained service professionals install coolers with virtually no disruption to your facility – typically in less than an hour. Please click here to watch our short video on how our water coolers are installed.
I have well water, can Quench purify my drinking water?
Water with TDS of 400 ppm (parts per million) often has a detectable “off” odor or taste. Quench recommends reverse osmosis filtration for customers who rely on well water or have tap water with TDS levels of 400 ppm or higher.
Please click here to read more about Reverse Osmosis. Or you can call 1-888-545-7873 to speak with a Quench Water Expert who will answer any of your questions.
Will a Quench filtered water cooler remove fluoride from my water?
Quench’s standard carbon filtration does not remove fluoride from tap water. However, reverse osmosis filtration does remove fluoride, and is optional on most Quench water coolers. The choice is yours!
If you have more questions about removing fluoride from your water, please call 1-888-545-7873 to speak with a Quench Water Expert.
My municipal water service has issues a "boil advisory." Can I still use my Quench machine?
A boil advisory or alert is often issued when levels of microbial contaminants in the main water supply are at unsafe levels. You should stop using your Quench machine for the period of the boil alert. Please shut off water to the machine by turning the valve to the OFF position and unplugging the machine from the electrical outlet.
Follow all instructions issued by your province or local authorities. When the boil advisory has been lifted, Quench will service your machine, including sanitizing the tanks and replacing the filter, to ensure that the unit has not been affected by microbial contamination.
Will switching to Quench increase our water and electric bills?
Municipal water is typically only 20 gallons per penny. It’s by far your least expensive utility. Adding filtered coolers usually will not change your water bill by more than 25 cents TOTAL per month, or less than $3.00 for the entire year! The electrical usage is equivalent to energy usage of bottled water coolers, which is approximately $3.50/month.

Will I be exposed to unsafe levels of mercury from the UV light bulbs used in UV sanitization?
No, Quench takes the proper precautions to prevent any exposure to mercury. While UV light bulbs do contain low levels of mercury vapor, the mercury vapor is isolated from exposure by a lamp envelope and a lamp sleeve and is not released while the bulb is in use. The energy from the UV light interacts with the mercury vapor to kill germs, bacteria, and viruses. The only possible exposure to the mercury vapor would be when the lamp envelope and lamp sleeve are broken. To prevent the UV light bulbs from breaking, our service technicians replace the UV light bulbs once a year during the preventative maintenance routine.
Will a Quench filtered water cooler remove fluoride from my water?
Quench’s standard advanced carbon filtration does not remove fluoride from tap water. However, reverse osmosis filtration does remove fluoride, and is optional on most Quench water coolers. The choice is yours!

What is Reverse Osmosis?
Reverse Osmosis (R/O) is a water purification technology that removes dissolved solids from drinking water. Dissolved solids are small organic and inorganic particles that are suspended in water. Dissolved solids vary by location, but include chemicals like salts, calcium and phosphates. Water with high total dissolved solids (TDS) levels often appear cloudy and can have “off” odors. Quench recommends reverse osmosis filtration for customers who rely on well water or have tap water with TDS levels of 400 ppm or higher. R/O technology is standard on the Quench 800 and Quench 940, and optional on all other coolers. All R/O-equipped water coolers require a drain line.
If you would like to learn more about R/O technology, please read our R/O Information Sheet.
What is Energy Star Certification?
ENERGY STAR Canada is a voluntary partnership between the Government of Canada and organizations in the public, private, and not-for-profit sectors to promote energy efficiency.
ENERGY STAR makes it easy for Canadians to make energy efficient choices that help them save money on energy bills, increase their competitiveness, and fight climate change.
Water coolers are tested by measuring the energy being used in a 24-hour period to maintain cold and/or hot water at the appropriate dispensing temperature. Quench currently has 1 Energy Star certified water cooler, the 720. While not all Quench water coolers are Energy Star certified, they are more energy efficient than the delivery of 5-gallon plastic jugs.
What are my payment options?
Quench makes every aspect of supplying your office with fresh water as easy as possible. This includes offering ACH or electronic payments so that you can set up payment and forget it.
Is Quench really that much better than bottled water?
Absolutely. The cost, convenience, and environmental savings are substantial and grow exponentially over time. And Quench uses state-of-the-art technologies, such as UV sanitization, 5-stage carbon filtration, and reverse osmosis, to ensure that Quench filtered water coolers provide the cleanest, healthiest, best tasting water available.
Is Quench really a green office water solution?
You bet. Traditional water delivery services rely on 5-gallon plastic jugs. In just one year, the manufacturing of those plastic jugs, the process of bottling the water, and then trucking it to you
- Uses 140 million kilowatt hours of electricity
- Burns 6 million gallons of fuel
- Dumps 70 million pounds of plastic waste into landfills
- Wastes million of gallons of water
Quench filtered water coolers, on the other hand, have a positive impact. Replacing just one traditional 5-gallon jug cooler is the greenhouse gas equivalent of planting up to 120 trees each year.
How do I know what the cost savings will be?
Quench is much less expensive than traditional bottled systems. Consider the costs of managing your bottled water inventory. It adds up fast, especially if you have multiple bottled water units.

Installing a new Quench machine in your place of business couldn’t be simpler. Over the last 20 years we’ve installed more than 60,000 filtered water coolers and ice dispensers in all sorts of settings; professional offices, retail stores and show rooms, warehouses and distribution centers, hospitals and schools. Our technicians are all insured and have undergone extensive training at our own Quench university. Generally speaking, a Quench cooler can be situated just about anywhere you need drinking water as long as there is an electrical outlet close by and a water source somewhere in the building. Even in settings with an especially high ceilings or where the nearest water source is up to 200 feet away. Our installer can have your Quench machine up and running quickly and with minimal disruption to your business, typically in less than an hour.
The first thing your Quench technician will do is to confirm the location of a 110-volt grounded power outlet. Next, he’ll locate a convenient water source in your building and connect a water line from the source to the water cooler. Our installer can run a water line virtually invisibly behind walls, above drop ceilings or under base boards where tubing is fed through an opening in the wall, it is finished with an outlet plate, similar to a cable television connection. Quench uses only food grade tubing and high-quality fittings and all installation work conforms to local building code requirements. Ball valves are installed at either end of the water cooler line for easy shut off and machine maintenance.
Finally, your Quench installer will test the unit to ensure that it is working perfectly and leave your space as clean as he found it. We’ll see you again when it’s time for your Quench machine’s regular preventative maintenance, usually in a year. In the meantime, all you have to do is enjoy and endless supply of great tasting healthy Quench filtered water.
Can a Quench water system be installed in a spot that isn’t adjacent to a water source?
Almost every building has a water source that can be tapped for a Quench water system. It does not have to be adjacent to the cooler location. Quench coolers can be installed where ever there is water within 200 feet.
