Every day we get people calling up asking “Do you have a charger holder that will fit my old soda siphon?”. A lot of people pick up soda siphons at estate sales, garage sales,thrift stores or on Ebay; you can find old soda siphons in many places. It is very important that before you purchase a used soda siphon you make sure it comes with a charger holder, if there is no charger holder, don’t waste your time — its often very difficult to find old charger holders. We try very hard to find the right fit to older soda siphons, but the reality is often times the charger holders that will work are unobtainable. The best luck we have had to find older soda siphon parts is to to check on Ebay. Here are a few brands that we do not have charger holders that will fit for.
We do NOT have parts for:
BOC
Kidde
Soda King
Sparklets
Unknown soda siphons / seltzer bottles with no name.
The only soda siphon charger holders that we carry is the new ISI soda siphon charger holder, which is universal with the New* Classic Glass Soda Siphon(Note: Not the *Old classic glass soda siphon, in most cases this charger holder it is much to big.). We also have Mosa charger holders that only fit Mosa soda siphons(also about an inch in diameter). To see if your siphon will fit this charger holder that we carry the first place to start is measuring the metal screw on where you would screw the charger holder.
ISI Soda Siphons
ISI changed their model of there soda siphon in 1996 the soda siphon on the right is the *NEW soda siphon while the soda siphon on the left is the old model. The charger holders are different and the new soda siphon charger holder doesn’t fit onto the old one.
The Charger holder on the right is new, where the charger holder on the left(with wings) is old.
Here is a diagram of the old ISI soda siphon model, and the new ISI soda siphon model.
A good indication of how old your ISI soda siphon is, is by looking at the bottom of the siphon, here is the diagram:
Soda siphons are a great tool to make soda water and an environmentally smarter choice. But its important before you obtain a used siphon you have the parts you need for it to work. If you don’t have a charger holder, your soda siphon will not work. If you have any questions about different soda siphons or what kind of soda siphon you have feel free to leave a comment or shoot us an email!
I just received my order of the gasket and straw for my ISI soda siphon mfg. 7/03.
It leaks from the head (part 2818 ??). Can I obtain a new head and at what cost?
Thank you for your response.

DEAR SIR: WE ORDERED A KIDDE SODA KING FROM EBAY AND THEY DID NOT SEND US THE CHAEGER THAT HOLDS THE CYLINGER FOR FILLING’ WHERE CAN WE FIND ONE?
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. PAUL 302 999-9086
Hello,
Unfortunately, there isn’t a retailer that we are aware of that sells Kidde charger holders. Usually we recommend finding one on Ebay.
Liss charger holders will fit the old BOC/Sparklets seltzers. I have several Hostmasters and Globe Masters. The Liss end will not fit and pull out the plastic sleeve/spacer if it’s inserted into the BOC bottle.
I think you can also use an ISI or Liss head on a BOC bottl.e
I have a Kovocas soda siphon. Is there any chance of getting a replacement head? Where?
Thanks
Hi John,
It’s slim. Kovocas went out of business some time ago, we usually direct people to ebay.co.uk,that is really your best bet. People have had success finding parts/siphons/heads for Kovocas on there. Good luck!
I have an ACC Mesh Soda Siphon. It looks like Kovocas made it. I’m looking to get rid of it, $15 plus shipping and it is yours, email me, paulakrupp@msn.com
ACC Jameson Bottle, 1983. All parts, rubber gaskets are shot, so if you need the head, wing nut, charger holder or bottle, contact me above
Hi all,
just in case somebody stubles across this post and needs a bulb/charge holder for one of those old BOC or Sparklets New York glass soda siphons: We still sell spare parts. We also offer other spare parts or complete repair for the Sparklets Soda Siphon.
We at Die Siphon Manufaktur made it our mission to revive the Sparklets New York Soda Siphon. Every model we sell is professionally restored by us; with handcraft precision we make sure that every Siphon works just as well as it did 80 years ago.
cheers,
Martin
Hi Martin,
Email custservice@creamright.com this information, as it would be useful for them to know, as we get abundance of phone calls for these siphons. Thanks!
for those of you who have an old leaky siphon, if it is sparklets type then the most common problem is the small o-ring just inside where you insert the charge (isi types use a much more complex rubber seal), which often looks ok but perishes. if you get a 9mm (internal diameter) x 2mm (thickness) o-ring it will be close enough to work well (not a common size – try ebay) and quite cheap. dig out the old ring with a small screw driver etc., hold one end of the new ring in the groove with pointy pliers, then poke the rest of the ring into place with a match
