FloJet BW1000A Bottled Water Dispensing System Review

I've been wondering for a while if someone made something like this, I really felt like having a separate unit for the bottled water with its own heater and refrigerator was wasteful.I was very happy to find this system after a bit of searching and ordered one right away.

The instructions recommend a sanitation process with some household bleach and a bucket of water, which I performed.Installation was very simple, as it basically consists of connecting the pump to your fridge, placing the dip tube in a bottle of water, and plugging in the pump.I got lucky in that the water tube built into my fridge was long enough to reach the pump where I wanted to install it, so I just plugged it into the pump.(The fridge tubing and the pump outlet were the same size.)If I'd had to use some of the tubing included with the pump that would have required a trip to the hardware store to get a connector to join the two.

Flojet recommends/requires that you remove any filter in your fridge, they say it will damage the pump if you have one.Not that you'd probably want to filter your bottled water anyway.Conveniently when I removed the filter from my fridge it bypassed itself automatically and just let the water go through.The instructions say that you might be able to get a blank filter from your fridge manufacturer if that's not the case with your fridge.You could test this in advance, just pull the filter from your fridge and see if you can still dispense water.

The dip tube is sized for 5 gallon bottles, we have 3 gallon bottles delivered so the tube is a bit longer than we need and sticks out of the top of the bottle a ways.There's unfortunately no way to shorten it, as the top and bottom fittings are glued on.

And the pump is a bit loud.In our case it is sitting on the counter beside the fridge, I imagine if we could put it in a cabinet it wouldn't be so noticeable.During the day when the house is active it's not too bad, but at night when the house is quiet it seems rather loud.

Overall I'm quite happy.It's nice to have ice that tastes good and one less appliance taking up space and power in the kitchen.
