WHAT’S inside a foaming soap dispenser

I really enjoy tearing things apart to see how they work. I was having some difficulty with my Foam soap dispenser so I pulled it apart to see if I can get it to move a little better. While I had it apart I decided to demonstrate how this soap dispenser goes together and how it creates the foam. Interesting hope you enjoy the video

Beyond innovative. People use it every day yet no one knows how or why it works the way it does. Well done my good man! The world needs more vids like this and people like you. So underrated.

My daughter just asked me how foaming soap works, and since schools are closed right now I figured what a great opportunity for a teachable moment. We watched your video, thanks so much!

My dispenser fell on the ground and the top popped off. While trying to put it back together, I lost the small ball and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working anymore.
after watching this, was able to find it and put it back in, so it works perfectly now. Thanks for posting!

This video is a godsend! I’ve decided to take the pumps for my two soap dispensers apart to wash them. I’ve had them for about three years and they have started sticking. When I reassembled them, neither were working properly, and try if I might, I could not figure out why. Long story short, I washed away the little clear balls. I googled ‘foam soap pump assembly’ and found your video.

A lecture such as this is very valuable for product designers who were not cut out to be engineers!

Hey thanks for doing this we need to create foaming soap with our off the grid hand washing station dispensers using a foot pump, for our community ceremonies, and now we know how to do it thanks to you. Many blessings and stay healthy partner

I have one that just keeps getting harder and harder to pump. Thanks for putting this video together so I can disassemble and repair it!

woa, that's quite an insane engineering for a foam soap dispenser

[youngin_shuffle]

Fantastic video! Super helpful, informative, and straight to the point. Thank you!

I'm so stoned, and just out of the blue, the thought ran through my mind and I couldn't figure it out.. I was stuck for a few hours(2 minutes, but felt like 3 hours), im glad I looked it up and found your video.. this is amazing and now I can move on to my next thought, how was cheese invented?!?!?!?

Thank you, i was curious what made it foam and looked everywhere and all i could find was the same videos about nothing i was looking for until i finally saw yours and you explained the mystery for me , thank you very much and new subscriber 👍.

Cool. You got it apart.
I always break them trying to separate the pieces.
I want to make soap foam and spray wasps.
This helps. Thank you

This video helped me to repair my very expensive foam self-tanner. Thanks a lot 🫶🏼

it’s 3am and i was so curious i just had to find out

[sranses]

thank you! that was a great tutorial, save me a few bucks and gave me the satisfaction of repairing and reusing something i though it was lost

[erikabbaware]

Thank you so much. Couldn’t get the pump apart to apply the silicone grease but was able to slip some into the general area with a toothpick. Works better than new now!

I too am trying to get my dispenser working again (it’s not foaming) and have tried a bunch of things… thanks very much for your video. Now I have another idea to try!

[brokenrobot]

Awesome!!! Exactly the kind of video I wanted to find when I looked up how foaming handsoap is done!!! Thank you! Awesome video! 😀

[lisamarie]

Thank you for this video. I was trying to find a way to fix my sticking foaming pumps. Another video I watched recommended Vaseline, but since you mentioned that petroleum jelly breaks down plastics I’m going to buy some silicone grease.

Thanks for this detailed video. Having trouble pushing down the beak. Buying silicone grease tomorrow, and trying your solution.
