Full details
This 20 Litre water jerry can from Urbn-Living is designed for anyone needing convenient and portable water storage, particularly for outdoor activities, camping, or gardening. Its key benefit is the integrated tap for easy dispensing and a leak-proof screw cap for secure transport. A potential consideration is its rigid plastic construction, which may not be suitable for all environments or long-term bulk storage needs without proper care.

Can the tap be removed or replaced?

How should I store the jerry can when not in use?
Store the empty and dry jerry can in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to preserve the plastic material.
Will the plastic leach chemicals into the water?
When used as intended and cleaned regularly, the food-grade plastic is designed to be safe for water storage. Avoid prolonged storage of water or exposure to extreme heat.
Troubleshooting
Tap is dripping or leaking
Ensure the tap is fully closed. Check if there is any debris around the tap seal. If the seal appears worn, consider replacing the tap if possible or use thread seal tape on the tap threads.
Water flow from tap is slow
Check if the water level in the can is too low. Ensure the air vent or screw cap is slightly loosened to allow air in as water flows out. The tap opening might be partially blocked; try cleaning it.
Container has an odor
Clean the container thoroughly with a mild solution of water and vinegar or baking soda. Rinse extensively and allow it to air dry completely in sunlight if possible. Avoid storing non-potable water in it for extended periods.
Cannot securely tighten the screw cap
Inspect the threads on both the container opening and the cap for any damage or debris. Clean the threads and try tightening again. If threads are damaged, the cap may need replacement.
