A system utilizing a concentrated cleaner and/or disinfectant and optionally concentrated lubricant or combinations thereof or concentrated multifunctional products within these classes; packaged in container sizes that are generally not greater than about 5 gallons each so as to permit greater flexibility in storage locations, especially at the area of use. In certain embodiments, the system further comprises an external empty bottle detection and alarm system. In certain embodiment, the system will also include a flow failure detection unit. In most preferred embodiments, both the 'empty bottle' sensor and the 'flow failure' are used, and preferably each has an independent ability to 'lock up' the entire system to prevent further use of the system until the problem is corrected. In other embodiments a sediment avoidance feature is utilized, which is embodied either in the bottle design, in angling of mounting the bottle in a mounting bracket, or both.
