#All I drink during the 7 days I work is ants' bath water# User comments I got intensive phobia after watching this Image source: Lizhi News In order to drink pure water, But they ignore the health risks behind convenience ——Water dispenser The water dispenser is usually filled with bottled water and placed on the "smart seat" of the dispenser, and then the hose inside the dispenser guides the water into the cold and hot water tanks. In addition to the function of dispensing hot and cold water, these two water tanks can also precipitate impurities in the water. Why have water dispensers become a “health killer”? 01. Water dispenser tank contamination There is a dead angle at the point where the inner tank of the water dispenser contacts the barrel. It is an open intermediate water storage tank. Water accumulates in it for a long time, which can easily breed bacteria on its surface, especially if it is not cleaned or disinfected for a long time. 02. Air Pollution When the water dispenser is dispensing water, as the pressure in the barrel decreases, air will enter the water dispenser and the barrel, and the microorganisms in the air will then survive and multiply in the barrel and the water dispenser. 03. Bottled water is contaminated The reasons for the contamination of bottled drinking water and water dispensers include overuse of bottled water barrels, inadequate cleaning and disinfection, and the susceptibility of bottled water to external environmental contamination during transportation. How dirty can the water in a water dispenser be? A study found that the sanitary condition of bottled water deteriorated sharply after 5 days of drinking. On the 7th day, the qualified rate was only 20%, and on the 10th day, the total number of bacterial counts in bottled water exceeded the standard. If the water dispenser is not cleaned properly, over time, the water in the barrel will flow through the contaminated smart seat, water inlet pipe and inner tank, and bacteria will continue to accumulate and multiply , and what you drink will not only be the visible "ant nest". Long-term drinking of such "secondarily polluted" water may cause a variety of diseases such as digestive, urinary, and nervous systems. How to clean a water dispenser correctly? Normally, you can clean the easy-to-clean parts such as the smart seat frequently, and then regularly disinfect the water dispenser including the inner tank. The specific steps for cleaning and disinfection can be found as follows: Disconnect the power supply to the water dispenser. When cleaning, first remove the bucket, drain the remaining water in the water tank, and clean it with a neutral detergent ; Then fill it with water, add special disinfectant, soak for 10-20 minutes and then drain; ****Finally, pour in clean water and rinse repeatedly until the water has no odor. Tips for healthy drinking water ****Once bottled water is opened, it is usually best to drink it within a week . ****Try not to place the water dispenser in places with air pollution sources or direct sunlight. ****If you drink less water, it is recommended to use small-capacity bottled water to shorten the drinking time, which is safer and more hygienic. **** When the water dispenser is not in use for a long time, turn off the power , remove the water bucket, and drain the water in the water dispenser. **** advocates boiled water as the most economical and practical drinking water to meet human health needs. |
