SodaStream Source Internal Rubber Seal Replacement

Introduction

The SodaStream Source carbonates water and adds flavor through its nozzle. This nozzle has a rubber seal to help prevent leakage and stabilize the carbonating block while making soda. If the seal is damaged, replacing it will stop leaking during your soda's creation. To replace this seal external and internal disassembly is required. This guide shows you how to access and remove a damaged seal.

Where can I purchase the internal rubber seal? Thanks Ronzo (Australia)

Ron Hayes - Reply

I’ll ask the same question as the gentleman above. Where can I purchase the rubber gasket seal? I cannot find it anywhere online. I would also like to purchase the gas delivery tube and is installed.

Thank you

Our sodastream does not work anymore. It’s the electrick model with three different gasfillings. When you put the waterbottle into the filling station and then you turn your suitably filled bottle down and you try to push some of those lights (- /--/ ---) for to fill your bottle, it sounds like little choked “puff” and then all lights are blinking (I think they tell mailfunction). No gas comes. I have changed new and stuffed gasbottle, power cable is its place and works. So what’s wrong? Thank You allready, Juha Heikkilä (Finland).
