How would you clean and maintain these coolers?
Mom bought these about two-three years ago and I initially looked into finding the manuals/pdf files and came up with nothing and left it at that.
Now that the ceramic water dispenser (found on the left in the first pic), came up with bugs and needs a simple clean up, this question came up and I'm sure I would have to either clean the tube/pipes or replace them entirely.
Do you guys know where I should look for guidance on where to get started on this?
Thanks in advance!

Drain the dispenser. Fill the jug up halfway with hot water and 2 cups of vinegar. Install jug and drain through dispenser. Refill jug all the way with hot water, install and drain. Good as new!
Edit: the white plastic screw seen in pic three is a drain plug to be used during this process. Drain the water from there AND both taps.

Didnt have to go far to see the vinegar involvement. Hell yes I would do the same. Great job

If you really want to clean it you use vinegar
