Question:
I have a Red Wing water cooler that is missing the lid. My cooler has a 6 on it. Several places I have looked all say only 5 or 8 gallon cooler were made. Where would I look to find the correct lid, and dosent the 6 mean 6 gallon?

Answer: Hello. The Red Wing Stoneware Company may water coolers in 2,3,4,5,6,8, & 10 gallon sizes. Each would come with a lid of the correct size. Your 6 gallon Red Wing water cooler (yes, the 6 stands for the gallon size) would take a 6 gallon Red Wing water cooler lid. The best place (or easiest) to find a 6 gallon Red Wing water cooler lid would be ebay. You could also advertise in Wing Tips (for free) for a 6 gallon Red Wing water cooler lid. Seeing that you are somewhat new at this, be sure to get a photo of the lid (before purchasing) and show it to someone who knows Red Wing to make sure you are getting the correct lid. Al Kohlman
