Additional instructions on how to tighten the Boots hot water bottle stopper correctly
It has become apparent that a small number of users have experienced leaks during use of the Boots hot water bottle. We would like to reassure our customers that all our bottles are individually tested for faults and conform to the current British Standard 1970:2012, which is the global safety standard for hot water bottles.

 

To prevent the hot water bottle leaking during use it important that the stopper is tightened correctly. To close the stopper sufficiently tight the stopper should be turned until it cannot be turned further without the use of excessive force. Failure to do this can result in leaking from the stopper area during use.

 

How to tighten the stopper correctly
When the stopper is in position it reaches its biting point and the resistance on turning increases. At this point the stopper should not be considered sufficiently tight as it can leak during use. To secure the stopper properly to prevent leaks it is necessary to tighten the stopper until it comes to a complete stop and cannot be turned further without the use of excessive force.

 

Under no circumstances should the hot water be used as a cushion or sat on. Prevent contact with hot surfaces. Prevent contact with oil or grease. When not in use, drain completely and keep, with the stopper removed, in a cool, dry, dark place. Prevent exposure to sunlight. Do not place anything on top of the hot water bottle during storage. Check the hot water bottle and stopper for wear and damage prior to use. Check the hot water bottle for any leakage by holding it in an upside down position. Do not microwave this hot water bottle. It is recommended that boiled water is left to cool for at least 5 minutes before filling your hot water bottle.
