Any idea if this could be used as a replacement for the push button spigots that come on the 5 and 10 gallon igloo coolers WITHOUT any modifications?

I doubt it. The walls of the cooler are likely too thick. This is meant for a bucket.

Honestly I don't think so, but I would have to check the spigot hole diameter on the igloo cooler. Without checking I think the nut on the bottle spigot is too large to fit in the igloo without modification. Also, the igloo's wall thickness could be an issue as well.

No, I don't think you can replace the spigot, But this dispenser/spigot is really well made, I am very pleased with how well it holds up, I hope this helps

You will probably have to contact igloo directly. I have no idea. Good luck.

Yes, I agree that the position of the water towers are likely to be the answer to the low pressure and flow rate. The frost-proof spigot would only change the flow by about 30%, but after the test, simply subtract 30% and see what it would have been with a standard spigot.

I'm not sure if it will fit, but if not, I'd try purchasing rubber washers that are 3/8" in diameter and put one on both the inside and outside of the bucket to seal up any gaps preventing water from coming out from around the spigot.

I am a customer just like you, not the manufacturer, so I cannot answer your question. I took a quick look at what is available at Amazon and did not see a 1/2 inch spigot specifically listed. Measurements listed on the website are not very clear. The units with an outside threaded diameter of 5/8 inch have an inside diameter of 1/2 inch. Not sure exactly what you need. Try doing an internet search for a replacement spigot using the manufacturers name of the unit you are trying to replace. This would probably give you the best result.

we do, this item will have the same size fitting with a larger spigot. http://www.amazon.com/Drum-Tap-Spigot/dp/B0064OE4JY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1388358081&sr=8-1&keywords=drum+tap+midwest+supplies

No it's not mace by Igloo. I bought it because of it's size. The brackets that I had on my golf cart would not come off and I didn't want to mount some new brackets. Also you can't get this size Igloo any more with a spigot so I had to make my own. It's pretty tight in the existing bracket but works great. Maybe this is more information than what you wanted. It's as good as Igloo however.

I've been buying polar 5 gallon plastic jugs from BJs, no experience with glass jugs. I looked at an image on google of the jug you are talking about; I don't see why not, although the neck opening looks shorter than the ones I'm getting of polar brand. The screw-down part seems to have alot of latitude. there is a tighten line you aren't suppose to screw down beyond or you can damage the pump. If you talked to Mountain valley as a water distributor, they may have said no; wanting you to use their cooler specifically. If terapump said it won't work, I'd take their word for it.

yeah, the parts are pretty interchangeable. the only issue would be water pressure- make sure your hookup would have enough pressure to push water as far as you'll need it.

In Dallas with the this years ice storm (2015), this barrel froze and the spigot at the bottom ruptured and broke off. I don't think there's a way to replace it so this is probably a total loss.

I replaced my swamp cooler on/off switch that was on the wall in my home with this. It works great. I do not know if you could even use this switch with a plug-in type portable swamp cooler (I guess that is what you are talking about)

I cannot answer this with an absolute yes or no. The Igloo cooler I had the issue with is a "MAX COLD" 60 qt, 5 day cooler, an excellent cooler I might add. The problem I had was with the latch pin I first received was attached with 2 screws and mine only has a single screw through the center of the pin. I know for sure these two are not interchangable. Sorry I can't be more help.

I used them on an Igloo. I don't see why they wouldn't work for you though if the holes line up. Ours has worked out just fine.

The unit requires an electrical plug and ¼" tubing to a water supply. If you remove the top lid there is a ¼" quick connect to a small section of white ¼" tubing that runs out the back of the unit. I removed that piece and replaced it with a long section that I ran to a RO water filter. You could go to a hardware store and get some ¼" icemaker tubing and a fitting to splice it between a cold water shutoff and the supply line of a nearby faucet. Placing a water filter in the line is optional but there is no filter in the unit.

I would think you could use this on your frig. The one question that comes up concerns what size supply line is on the frig. You may or may not have to adapt, but a hardware store should have anything you might need. Hope this helps.

Lisa, this spigot screws on to the water container that it designed to fit. Without the threaded opening in the container there would be no way to attach it.
