Flat soda could be attibuted to several reasons:
- No ice in the bin
- Warm soda
- Too much rinse sanitizer in dishwasher
- Not enough Co2 pressure
- Bad flow jet pump
- Carbonator not engaging
- Water in the gas line
Most likely due to a dirty soda system if the system is not cleaned on a regular basis. Debris and other foreign objects can cause soda guns to leak and stick.
We recommend soda line cleaning to be done on a quarterly basis.
