What’s Included in Our Setup Service
- Machine placement and basic installation on your counter or designated space.
- Connection to water source – either your existing compatible setup or a bottled-water pump system, depending on the model.
- Initial configuration of drink volumes, temperature and strength based on your preferences.
- First test run so you see exactly how the chai dispenses and what each button does.
- Basic safety and usage walk-through for your team.
If any additional work is required (for example, electrical changes or permanent plumbing) we will let you know in advance so you can coordinate with your own licensed contractor.

How Our On-Site Training Works
During training we cover:
- Daily operation – how to turn the machine on/off, choose flavours and serve drinks quickly.
- Filling premix and water – how to refill hoppers or containers without spills or waste.
- Cleaning routines – simple daily and weekly cleaning steps to keep drinks tasting fresh.
- Basic troubleshooting – common alerts, what they mean and what to do before calling support.
- Best practices for busy hours – tips to manage queues, maintain consistency and avoid downtime.
Most locations are fully comfortable with the machine within the first session. If your team changes, we can schedule refresher training as needed.

What You Need to Have Ready Before We Arrive
To keep setup smooth and fast, please ensure:
- A standard electrical outlet is available where the machine will be placed.
- The counter or stand is clear, stable and strong enough for the machine.
