Maintain Your Investment

Regular maintenance enhances performance and prolongs the life of your Ozark River portable sink. Check out our daily, weekly, biweekly, and annual maintenance steps below.

Your portable sink’s warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse, negligence, or freezing. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must use and maintain the portable sink as instructed in the manual, including proper long-term storage and winterizing.

Minimum Operating Requirements
  1. Dedicated, grounded 110V, 20A circuit breaker per operating system.
  2. Sinks must be placed on a level, dry surface. Extension cords must be rated for 20A or higher (12-gauge wire).
  3. Water must meet EPA Standards with PH levels between 7.0 – 9.0.
 
No Wet Conditions
Never operate portable sink in damp or wet conditions! Electric shock may occur.
 
No Bleach
Never use bleach to clean the sink–internally or externally. We recommend using Steramine.
