Once you have followed the restart procedures, use every opportunity to encourage regular sanitisation of equipment and consumables as well as heightened personal hygiene protocols to help prevent the spread of germs.
Wash or sanitise hands with an alcohol-based gel before and after you use your dispenser.
Whilst at the dispenser, cover sneezes and coughs to help prevent the spread of germs. We recommend keeping a hand sanitiser and tissues within easy reach of the dispenser, and a bin to dispose of used tissues.
Keep a safe distance from others when you fill up at the water dispenser. It is recommended that a distance of at least 1 metre/3ft be maintained at all times.
Use a spray disinfectant such as AquaDosa or disposable disinfectant wipes to sanitise your dispenser regularly. Pay particular attention to the dispensing area.
All glassware, re-usable bottles, carafes and other drinking vessels must be washed in a dishwasher or glass washer after every use without exception. A second cycle for all items is recommended. If you are using disposable cups, encourage disposal after each use, do not reuse or leave for others to dispose of.
