An important tip is to turn off the water supply when the drink is not in use and empty the drinking bowl out. This will help stop stagnant water corroding the bowl. “Stagnant water contains bacteria that cause microbiologically influenced corrosion. This relatively unusual form of corrosion results from the interactions of bacteria with various metals and their alloys and can increase the corrosion rate up to 100-times above that in conventional types of corrosion.” (Marjan Suban)
