Office water coolers are a great way to combat dehydration during the day, especially in the hot summer days spent in the office. This is important because individuals need to remain hydrated in order to work to their capacity.
Dehydration does not only affect the body, but also affects the mind, making it difficult if not impossible to think properly, and nigh impossible to perform involved calculations or do intricate and detailed mathematical or scientific calculations.
There are two types of office water coolers, bottled office water coolers and mains office water coolers. Bottled office water coolers are popular with and more suited to smaller offices where less water is required. Mains-fed water coolers are better suited to bigger businesses where there is a need for a virtually continuous stream of chilled water 24/7.
5 Benefits of Installing a Mains Fed Water Cooler
Mains-fed office water coolers, otherwise known as Point-Of-Use (POU) water coolers, are plumbed directly into the main water line, thereby turning your ordinary tap-water into chilled, tasty drinking water that is always available.
Mains office water coolers are more suited to bigger organisations because:
- There is no need to ensure that there is always a supply of full water bottles as the mains water cooler is directly plumbed in
- There is no need to worry about ensuring sufficient storage space for all the water bottles required to satisfy demand
- Mains-fed office water coolers are more eco-friendly than bottled water coolers because there are no bottles that are going to end up in a landfill somewhere
- Mains-fed office water coolers can be fitted with a filter which can ensure that all toxins such and fluoride that are present in tap water are removed before you drink the water
- Mains water coolers have a very small carbon footprint and cost much less in the long run and once you have purchased and installed the water cooler there is basically no further cost bar a small maintenance cost
At the end of the day, if you have an office with more than 100 staff, or a sports venue where chilled water is required in large amounts, mains office water coolers are the perfect solution.
