Will a 3 gallon glass jug fit with this unit

It should fit as long as the spout is the same size as the 5 gallon jug. Maybe you can check online with Clover

Hi Laura, The 3 gallon bottle will fit as long as the neck/spout fits the opening to the cooler. These coolers are meant for 5 gallon bottles, but if they are the same, it should be ok.

Yes, however the old glass jugs most likely don't have the spill guard cap on them and the spill guard bayonet system has to be unscrewed and removed from the reservoir on the water dispenser before you use it with the old glass jug style bottles. It's very easy to do and once it is off it will be retro-style again like the old days to accept the bottles without the spill guard caps.

Yes they will handle the 5 gallon jugs. This unit is amazing I would order it again. I like it better than our previous unit.

Yes, different size tubes come with it so it will reach the bottom depending on the size jug you have. I use mine in a 5 gallon jug.

The tube attached to the pump is pretty rigid, so I think the 3 gallon jug would be too short to allow the pump to function properly.

I think one will fit if you pull out the top shelf. I have put several half gallon jugs in the fridge with no problem.

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.

My guess is that you could find a way to shorten the piece of plastic pipe that extends into the water, and thus make this pump work with a 3-gallon jug. The pipe that comes with this unit is designed for a 5-gallon jug ... and I wish you the best of luck in making this work for you! :) I am VERY happy with this pump!!

No. I have the blue 5 gal Coleman jug, and this is too big for it.Coleman spigot is 2 inch diameter, this one is nearly 3 inch diameter.

nope, that wont fit I. the shaker is only about 1/2" taller than a gallon can.

It should, I have used it on a couple different brands of jugs. I would say no smaller than 5 gal though

Im not totally sure, I know that these caps do fit all 3 and 5 gallon jugs that can be purchased from Wal-Mart.

The plastic gallon milk jug will just fit, and will fit better if you crush it first.

I would assume so. I use a 5 gallon and would imagine that a smaller one would fit as well.

Yes, I use a 3 gallon bottle in mine but it also holds 5 gallon. I love mine!

I use the 3 gallon bottles, mainly because they are easier for me to handle, but the unit is sturdy enough, I think it would handle the 5 gallon just fine.

I have both the quart and the half gallon size. The quart jug would fit in the door, but the half gallon fits on most any shelf as it's only 7.5" tall.

the link they put up for the econo-lock carboy bungs set of 2 I already bought those, they work great for my 3 gallon carboy. I also already have 2 jugs same type from organic apple juice. same kind of jugs, but the bungs are barely too big too fit. I need smaller ones for my jugs, so might you or anyone reading this, if they are looking for bungs and airlocks for 1 gallon jugs similar to the one shown. might have to find a rubber plug at a hardware store and drill it out yourself. or use a balloon and take a needle to it first and put a tiny hole to let excess pressure out
