Cylinder size: 14.5 oz (400–425 g) / 60L
CO2: 100% renewable, food-grade CO2
Our CO2 is produced exclusively from renewable sources in the United States, meaning the CO2 is recovered from sources already within the ecosystem rather than adding newly produced CO2 to the atmosphere.

You already have the Cylinder Loop selection in the cart.
The Aarke CO2 Cylinder Exchange Service is a hassle-free, on-demand service that exchanges your empty CO2 cylinders for new ones. Order only when you need them and only pay when you exchange. Already have CO2 cylinders at home? You can use any 60L cylinder from any brand to get started.
How it works:
You’re always in control. Exchange your cylinders whenever you need to. There are no monthly or yearly fees — you only pay when you exchange your empty cylinders.
Yes. The CO2 Cylinder Exchange (The Cylinder Loop) is an on-demand subscription service, meaning you only place an order once when you first sign up. After that, your payment details are securely saved, so you don’t need to place a new order each time you exchange your empty cylinders.
Unlike a traditional subscription, you control when you exchange your cylinders. When 2 cylinders are empty, return them to us and a new order will automatically be placed. You’ll only be charged once your empty cylinders are on their way back to us.
There are no monthly or yearly fees – you only pay when you exchange your empty cylinders.

If your ZIP code isn’t accepted or you’re unable to add the product to your cart, the service isn’t available in your area yet.
We’re working to make the service available across the US as soon as possible. Please note that we currently cannot ship CO2 to Hawaii, Alaska, or Puerto Rico.
Yes. You’ll be asked to create an account at checkout when placing your first order. This allows us to securely save your payment method and automatically process future exchanges when you return your empty cylinders.
Usually, yes. We accept standard 400–425 g (14.5 oz) / 60L CO2 cylinders approved for use with sparkling water makers, regardless of brand.
The cylinder must be in good condition. We do not accept damaged cylinders or SodaStream Quick Connect cylinders with the pink ring.
If your cylinder meets these requirements, you can use it to get started with the Aarke CO2 Cylinder Exchange.
There’s no set schedule for exchanges. Exchange your cylinders whenever you need to, depending on how often you carbonate and enjoy sparkling water.
You can exchange 2 empty cylinders at a time using our exchange box.
We recommend keeping 3 cylinders at home – one in your Carbonator while the other two are being exchanged.
You’ll know your cylinder is empty when your water no longer carbonates as usual.
Before returning it, make sure the cylinder is completely empty by carefully pressing down the center pin with a spoon to release any remaining CO2.
No. Each exchange requires 2 empty cylinders to be returned in the exchange box.
If only 1 cylinder is returned, an additional $9 fee will be charged for the missing cylinder.
We recommend keeping 3 cylinders at home, so you always have one available while the other two are being exchanged.
FedEx delivers your full CO2 cylinders, while USPS handles the return of your empty cylinders.
If you order a Carbonator together with your CO2 cylinders and exchange box, your packages may arrive separately, as they are shipped from different locations.
Once USPS confirms that your empty cylinders are on their way back to us, your new order is automatically placed. Delivery typically takes 2–5 business days.
Since CO2 cylinders are classified as hazardous goods, they must be shipped via ground transportation. Once your new cylinders are on their way, you’ll receive an email with tracking information.
No. Unless otherwise stated, Aarke CO2 cylinders are excluded from discounts and promotions, and discount codes cannot be applied to them.
Simply stop returning your empty cylinders. If you don’t send them back, no new exchange order will be placed and you won’t be charged.

Renewable CO2 Ecosystem
Fields of crops such as wheat or corn, absorb the CO₂.
Farmers harvest the crops.
The harvest is processed and releases CO₂.
The CO₂ is captured as a by-product from the fermentation.
The biogenic CO₂ is turned into fresh, tasteless gas for carbonation.
The CO₂ is released when the sparkling water is consumed.
Customers praised this sparkling water exchange service for its efficiency and convenience. Reviews highlighted "fast turnaround," "simple process," and excellent customer service. The return/exchange system was described as "super easy" with quick delivery. One customer noted a missing exchange label, and another received a damaged box but was still able to use it.
We received the Aarke, CO2 cylinders and box about a month ago. The original cylinder is still providing CO2 to the Aarke. The Aarke itself is a beautiful bit of hardware that stands proudly on our kitchen counter. The Aarke came with two glass bottles (we ordered an extra one), that we swap in and out as we consume seltzer. It is easy to use and after a while one figures out how to get small vs big bubbles. The Aarke is a bit pricey but worth it as there are no plastic bits in the CO2 path that we can see.
If you crave sparkling water, the Aarke is a worthy bubbly machine.
Quick and easy to send back empty containers and receive new supply!!
Great product, fast delivery!
It's been 6 weeks. My return label for the CO2 recycling program hasn't shown up yet
So wonderful, not having to use all those cans of sparklingwater!
Pretty slick! Costs just a bit more than some of the other sources but it seems to me that there is just a little more air in the AARKE bottles…maybe my imagination only. Anyway, I sent off two empties and pretty quickly to full bottles arrived. I will continue with this service.
I was really impressed that the new order was processed as soon as I dropped off the return package at the post office.
Easy way to get refills of CO2 without having to go to the store! And no unnecessary subscription, I like that it is a subscription on demand
It works well
Really appreciate the fluid process! Would recommend to anyone looking for this type of sparkling water solution.
This system is easy and works very efficiently ❤️❤️❤️
I like the ease of use. No need to look for a box, etc.
Great system. First time with the exchange, I hope its timely!
One of the cylinders had no air and when I received the new set one of the cylinders only worked to fill a bottle 4 times.
Love the prepaid and shipping box. Everything about this program rocks!
Great, super easy.
The process couldn’t be any easier.
Great product and great customer service.
Highly recommend!
Love my Aarke carbonator!
Easy to do return. The first one I ordered never came. I call customer service and they quickly emailed me a label, I had the original box. Then they also mailed a return label and box. Great service and dropping it off at the post office super easy.
the plain box is great, while it is a drag each cylinder is wrapped in plastic. wishing for this to be replaced with a sustainable alternative.
Exchange system is great. Convenient and east.
Excellent service! Very fast turnaround!
Easy returns and fast shipping!! Love it!!
I got the notification that Aarke received my old box as I was walking out of the post office and a new one was shipped the next morning. Fast and convenient
The service is convenient and efficient.
Fantastic
Easy to use and easy to replace when empty!
The return/exchange process was very simple and I received the replacement tanks quickly.
I Love the marketing idea of 2 AARKE CO2 Cylinders & Exchange box program.
Just now figuring out how many glasses of water can be made from one cylinder before I change the cylinder.
Great packaging and instructions.
Aarke makes the CO2 cylinder exchange extremely convenient. Once you have your empty cylinders picked up by FedEX, your replacement cylinders show up soon after. Excellent service and convenience. W highly recommend!
