Water coolers are one of the most convenient and useful home appliances and the best way to enjoy refreshing, clean water. Everyone knows about the benefits health-wise and economically, but most aren’t aware of some other interesting facts about them.
Every water cooler doesn’t need a bottle: When we hear the word, ‘water cooler,’ the first thing that pops in our mind is the heavy water bottles attached on top of the unit. The more the gallons of water, the heavier the bottle, and it does need considerable strength to replace the bottle. The great news is that there are point-of-use models that don’t need heavy bottles atop them to be replaced. Instead, they are hooked up to a water main or line directly. That precludes the need to attach a heavy bottle. These also occupy less space, are convenient to use, and ideal for properties with limited space.
They come in portable models: Another surprising fact not many are aware of is that there are portable models of water coolers, too. They are no longer limited to large, cumbersome models any longer! These are great for camping, barbecues, or a day at the beach. Just imagine, on a warm sunny afternoon at the beach, you could have a steady supply of cold, refreshing water without having to pay for the water! These are also perfect for homes or offices with very limited space that can’t accommodate a regular water cooler.
They don’t only offer cold water: While there are models that only dispense cold water at room temperature, the good news is there also are coolers that dispense both cold and hot water. These are great for people that like warm beverages like coffee, tea, or cocoa. In fact, they are great to make cup noodles and soup, too. Extremely practical, it’s a surprise they never came up with hot water coolers earlier. Also, there’s no need to worry about the kids burning themselves accidentally. Most come with built-in safety features, so that even kids can use them safely. Always check the features of the model when you plan to buy a water cooler.
Some even come with a nightlight: Isn’t that cool? No longer do you need to fumble in the darkness for the light switch in the dining room or kitchen just to have a glass of water at night! Certain new models of coolers now come with their very own built-in nightlight! They glow in the dark, so you just need to look for the glow, and voila, you can fill your cup, enjoy the fresh water, and then slink back into the warmth of the bed. Easy-peasy as it goes!
Maintenance is a breeze: The great thing about water coolers is that they are very easy to maintain. Set a maintenance schedule preferably monthly, keep it plugged in (except when you clean it), and keep extra replacement bottles of water handy. To keep it looking as good as new, wipe it down with a lint towel every fortnight or so. That’s about it!
