Frequently Asked Questions - ACQUA BLS 110 IMETEC

How do I carbonate water with the ACQUA BLS 110?

Fill the bottle with cold water up to the fill line. Screw the bottle onto the unit, then press the carbonation button until you hear a hiss (about 2-3 seconds). Release and wait. Repeat for stronger carbonation.

What type of CO2 cylinder does this model use?

The IMETEC ACQUA BLS 110 uses standard disposable CO2 cylinders (60L or 130L). Compatible cylinders are widely available.

Can I use any bottle with the ACQUA BLS 110?

Only use the bottle provided by Imetec. Other bottles may not fit or could burst under pressure.

How do I clean the sparkling water maker?

Hand wash the bottle and cap with mild soap and warm water. Wipe the unit with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the base in water.

Why is my water not carbonating properly?

Ensure the CO2 cylinder is not empty, the bottle is screwed on tightly, and the water is cold. Also check that the sealing ring is in place.

How do I replace the CO2 cylinder?

Remove the empty cylinder by unscrewing it from the back of the unit. Screw a new cylinder in until tight. Do not overtighten.

Is the ACQUA BLS 110 safe to use?

Yes, it has a built-in safety valve that releases excess pressure. Always use cold water and follow the manual.

Can I carbonate other drinks like juice?

Carbonating only purified water. Juices can damage the unit and cause clogging. Add flavoring after carbonation.

What should I do if the unit leaks?

Check that the bottle is properly sealed and the CO2 cylinder is tight. If leaks persist, inspect the sealing rings and replace if worn.

How long does a CO2 cylinder last?

A 60L cylinder typically makes about 30-40 liters of sparkling water, depending on carbonation level. A 130L cylinder lasts proportionally longer.
