Avalon A6 Self-Cleaning FAQs
How is it different from the standard A6?
Same cooler and paddles. This model adds UV self-cleaning for $50 more than the A6.
How do the press paddles work?
Hold a cup against the hot or cold paddle and water pours. Pull it away and the water stops.
What size jugs does it take?
Standard 3 or 5 gallon water jugs from any delivery service or store.
How long until the water is hot and cold?
Once the tanks are full and the heating and cooling switches are on, plan on about 15 to 20 minutes for hot water and about 1 hour for cold on first startup.
Can I skip the jugs altogether?
Yes. If there is a water line nearby, a bottleless water cooler like the Avalon A5 filters tap water so you never buy or haul jugs. The A6 Self-Cleaning is the better pick when there is no water line where the cooler needs to go.

Warranty
Warranty
- Avalon warrants its water coolers, bottle fillers, and chillers to the original purchaser against defects in materials or workmanship. Avalon will repair or replace a defective product, at its option, when the product was bought new from an authorized retailer.
- Coverage: Avalon products include a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty from the original purchase date. The warranty ends early if the product is sold or transferred.
- Registration: Register your unit with Avalon within 30 days of purchase to activate the warranty on Avalon's product registration page. Keep your model number, order number, and purchase date.
- Troubleshooting first: Every claim starts with troubleshooting alongside Avalon's support team. If a part fixes the issue, Avalon provides that part at no cost. A replacement unit is considered only after parts and troubleshooting have been tried.
- Installation and labor: Installation, maintenance, and repairs are the purchaser's responsibility. Plumber or third-party labor and extra installation materials are not covered.
- Not covered: Damage from accidents, misuse, improper installation or maintenance, relocation, unauthorized repairs, or unsanitary conditions. Units must be plugged directly into a grounded wall outlet. Using an extension cord or surge protector voids the warranty.
- Shipping damage: Report any shipping damage within 30 days of purchase. Damage reported after 30 days is not eligible for a warranty claim.
- A valid serial number and proof of purchase may be required. Shipping costs to return a product for repair or replacement are the purchaser's responsibility, and a replacement unit carries the remaining warranty from the original purchase date.
- Please contact us before returning any product or submitting a warranty claim so we can review your situation and connect you with the right support.
