Abstract

A circulation pump system in a storage vessel for liquids, more particularly in a carbonizing tank of a beverage dispenser in which soda water, a mixture of CO.sub.2 gas and fresh water, is chilled and stored under pressure for withdrawal via an outlet connection. The circulation pump is mounted directly above the discharge port of the storage vessel so that the small amount of heat released by the circulation pump is utilized to keep the outlet opening free of ice.
