Gone are the big ugly monstrosities that were the Office water coolers of old; they have now been replaced with state-of-the-art, highly technological, slimline, svelte water coolers.

Modern office water coolers are available in a range of great styles and colours that can be customised to suit and complement any office. Removable side panels mean that you can print your company logo on your water cooler, which is a really good marketing ploy.

The placing of your office water cooler is important because it needs to be in a communal area that provides all staff members with easy access to the cool refreshing drinking water. There should also be sufficient space around the water cooler for the inevitable “water cooler chats” which are not, as previously thought, a waste of time, but a great opportunity for networking, better communication between colleagues, and tossing around innovative ideas and thoughts about projects on which they are currently working.

Office water coolers perform multiple functions in other words, as they also ensure that staff members take a break every now and again, keep them hydrated, healthier, more awake and alert, and more productive. This is good for the company bottom-line because when staff are happier and healthier they take less sick days, produce better, and work longer hours.

Some modern office water coolers such as bottled office water coolers are portable so it is easy to try out different areas until you find the best spot, as long as there is access to a power point. Point of use water coolers are also known as mains water coolers and as they are plumbed directly into the main water line, they need to be installed where this can be best achieved and where there is a power point.

It is best not to place office water coolers in the direct sunlight. They should be placed where accidental bumps or knocks could not dislodge the water bottle on top, or cause leakage or spillage. Also, make sure that you place your office water cooler on an even surface avoid spillage.
