Where to install a water cooler in a workplace?

For several reasons, it’s best to ask oneself where to install a water cooler even before selecting the water cooler model, as the answer to the first question will largely determine the answer to the second one.

Indeed, limitations related to the installation of a water cooler are not the same depending on the type of machine used:

  • A bottled water cooler may be installed anywhere as long as it can be connected to a wall outlet – however, it’s best to think about a place to store full and empty bottles nearby,
  • The same goes for office atmospheric water generators, even though it’s better to install them in large rooms as they condense humidity in ambient air,
  • Plumbed-in water coolers must be installed near a wall outlet and water pipes, so that they can be connected easily and to enjoy water of the best possible quality.

Apart from these technical considerations, it’s quite easy to know where to install a water cooler: the best place is where it can be accessed by the largest number of users.

 

It’s wise to install a cold or hot water dispenser:

  • At least in one location on every floor is the workplace occupies several floors,
  • In a location with heavy traffic, like a relaxation area or wide corridor,
  • In a place where customers and guests might be present, like a meeting room or entrance hall,
  • Or in a place where staff logically expects to find drinks, like a cafeteria!
