Many of us don’t know the fact that water coolers and drinking fountains are completely different. When the water cooler cools the water, the distributor may or may not. Today's market is flooded with water dispensers, and a wide list is provided for you to choose from according to your needs and budget. For some of us, choosing from them can be a daunting task.
Here are some factors worth considering before buying a water dispenser:
Space: The amount of available space will determine whether you should buy a wall-mounted distributor or a free-standing distributor. Bottleless hot and cold water dispensers take up less space and are reasonably classified.
Capacity: If you want a dispenser for office or public use, please choose a dispenser with a large storage capacity so that you don't have to fill it again and again. However, if you want to install it at home, you can use a smaller storage space.
Type: It is important to understand the basic requirements of the dispenser. There are many types of drinking fountains on the market, such as wall-mounted, bottled drinking fountains, countertops, points of use, etc. Determine in advance whether you need to bring a refrigerator or chiller, hot and cold or room temperature water dispenser.
Maintenance: There has always been a high demand for body dispensers that require less maintenance and are easy to clean.
Water filter: Always make sure that the water dispenser you buy has a built-in filter, because you don’t want to buy a water dispenser that only provides hot and cold water.
Purification technology: Usually we need to manually place the filtered water bottle in the dispenser, but some dispensers have a filter. They have carbon-based filtration technology to remove particles and impurities from the water. Some of them have UV (ultraviolet) and RO (reverse osmosis) technology and can act as filters. Gravity-based filtration and anti-bacterial filters are also provided. We must ensure that the filtration technology used does not remove the essential minerals from the water.
Safety function: The water dispenser has a child lock function to prevent children from sprinkling water. In addition, it can prevent children from using hot water taps to burn their skin.
Appearance: Today's drinking fountains have an attractive style and can be perfectly integrated with the decoration of the area, whether you want to install them in office areas, kitchens or public places such as hospitals or parks.
Cup holder and drip tray: The cup holder makes it feasible to use a water dispenser. You can put the cups in the cup holder and use them from time to time without having to look for cups in the kitchen.
