Cleaning the collection tank
Time Required: 15 minutes
Recommended Frequency: Once per month
1) Unplug your Skywell
2) Open the front cabinet door, and swivel the water filters in an upward motion
until they are parallel to the floor.
3) Use the handle on the collection tank to pull it forward to help, but be careful to
not put stress on the wires connected to the lid. Carefully remove the lid of the
collection tank by lifting straight up.
4) Empty contents of tank. This is unfiltered water, but it can still be used for non-
potable purposes, such as watering plants.
5) Use a non-toxic cleaning agent to wipe down all of the internal surface area of
the collection tank.
6) Rinse the collection tank to remove any traces of cleaning agent.
7) Return collection tank into the Skywell, carefully reattach lid (NOTE: Ensure lid is
properly lined up. If lid is reattached out of place, the machine may leak
collected water over time).
8) Lower water filters to vertical position, plug Skywell back in.
Because the collection tank by necessity interacts with the environment in order to
collect water, it can over time develop buildup. While the Skywell’s filtration and
water quality systems will ensure your water remains clean and safe to drink regardl-
ess, such build up can shorten the life of the water filters and reduce the efficiency
of the system. Therefore regular cleaning is important to ensure optimal
performance.
