Cooler does not heat water

A water cooler is an indispensable piece of equipment not only in office buildings, but also at home. It is purchased when you need to have hot and cold purified water on hand around the clock. But sometimes even this seemingly simple equipment can fail.

A very common breakdown is a situation in which the cooler stops heating water. That is why today we decided to talk about this particular malfunction and find out whether it is possible to fix it yourself.

The main reasons why the cooler does not heat water

Why doesn't the cooler heat the water? In fact, there are several reasons why equipment may stop working. These include:

• The device is disconnected from the network;
• The socket, plug or power cord is damaged or completely out of order;
• Problems with the power sensor.

Is the device connected to the network?

Sometimes consumers complain that the cooler has stopped heating water without connecting the equipment to the network. This reason is quite common among those who have only recently purchased equipment and have not yet understood the basics of its use.

Serviceability of the socket, plug and power cord

Damage to the socket, power cord or plug.Sometimes, due to careless handling of the equipment, the power cord may fray, and as a result, the cooler will stop heating the water. The same can be said about the plug and socket. There is no need to make excessive efforts when connecting the cooler to the network. In addition, it is not recommended to allow the wire to be twisted or to be placed in an open space.

Sensor check

Each cooler is equipped with a special heating sensor located at the back of the device. And if it fails, then the water in the tank simply stops heating, and as a result, there is a need for urgent equipment repair.

Troubleshooting solutions

1. In the first situation, the consumer only needs to connect the device to the electrical network, make sure that the corresponding light comes on, indicating that the device is operational, and begin operating it.
2. If there is a problem with the plug, cord or socket, it will need to be replaced, or if you have the knowledge, repairs can be made. It will be extremely simple and will take no more than 10–15 minutes.
3. But if the sensor breaks down, you will need to turn off the equipment and remove the back cover of the device. Then you need to press the central button of the lower sensor until it clicks. If in this situation the equipment still does not begin to heat the water, you will need to contact the service center for repairs by a professional specialist.
