Cleaning your tap and setting it to holiday mode
You may notice your Billi tap's dispenser will get stained from everyday use. The surface of your dispenser can get dirty from beverage spills, fingerprints, and grease marks.
When it's time to clean your tap dispenser, avoid using abrasive cleaners. It's best to use a non-solvent and non-smearing cleaner such as Windex. Avoid pouring water directly over your tap. Wiping your tap down with a damp cloth is suitable enough for getting the job done.
To save on energy consumption, your Billi tap unit can be switched to holiday mode. This feature is best used when you know your tap won't be used for an extended period of time.
In holiday mode, the water chiller and water heater are disabled. Your unit will consume very little power while in this mode. It's a simple yet economic solution that will help your business reduce running costs.
How often should I replace my filter?
To stay on top of your Billi tap maintenance, the manufacturer recommends changing your unit's filter cartridge every 6 months. This will ensure your Billi tap is always dispensing clean and healthy drinking water.
You should also consider your own usage rates when it comes to replacing filter cartridges. Heavy usage may demand that your filter cartridges get changed sooner. If you know that you Billi tap hasn't been used heavily, it's safe to assume that you can delay changing the filters.
Billi filter taps come with a filter change monitor. This monitor works by counting the number of cups dispensed and the number of days since the last changeover. Your Billi tap's change filter indicator will flash to alert you when it's time to change filters.
