Using A Water Cooler/Water Fountain On Shabbos

One may only use a water cooler on Shabbos if he is lenient in regard to opening a refrigerator on Shabbos. The same would apply to changing the water bottle on top of the water cooler on Shabbos. A water fountain may be used on Shabbos if the plug is pulled out before Shabbos has begun.

Tevillas Keilim

Below is a short list of items that one tends to use more often in the summer and how they apply to tevillas keilim. �

������Disposable Grills made form hard metal should be toveled without a beracha.

������A Can opener does not require any tevilla.

������Tongs should be toveled with a beracha.

An Aluminum pan which is thrown out after use does not require tevilla. If one wants to use a aluminum pan more than once then one does not need to tovel it because the Yid is making the pan into a utensil. Some say one should tovel them without a beracha, but this is not the minhag.Potato Peeler- a potato peeler needs to be toveled, but without a beracha.
