Installation is so quiet you’ll forget you now have POU water coolers

If your company currently has bottled water delivered to the office on a weekly or monthly basis, you know how annoying and inconvenient this can be. It seems like the delivery person always arrives while the entire office is in an emergency meeting, right in the middle of a group interviewing session or as soon as clients arrive for the sales pitch the team has been preparing for months.

Not only can the whole ordeal of bringing in cases or jugs of water be noisy and disruptive, it can also come across as very unprofessional to clients and prospective employees. There is a better way to provide a source of healthy hydration in the workplace.

When you use bottleless water coolers from Quench, you don’t have to worry about all the hassles associated with drinking water delivery. An unknown delivery person is often an unwelcome intrusion in most offices, not to mention this can be a security issue. Furthermore, when a water delivery comes, the office manager or administrative assistant is forced to stop the important tasks that he or she is working on to supervise the delivery and check the invoice. These things can be very bothersome during the workday and should not be something you have to deal with.

Quench water bottle alternatives simply make more sense for your company. When you implement Quench water solutions in your office, a certified, insured and highly-trained service professional will install your point of use water cooler in an efficient and quiet manner. He or she will not cause any disruption to your facility, and installation is typically completed under an hour.

The best part of a Quench POU water dispenser is that the water supply is endless – no more worrying about a delivery person interrupting your day. Enjoy the convenience of Quench. Enjoy better tasting water.

Could you make a water bottle sculpture in your office?

If your company’s office is like most in the United States, employees are probably provided water in plastic bottles kept in the break room refrigerator or vending machine. While these might seem like the most convenient option for offering healthy hydration in the workplace, have you considered the environmental ramifications?

Stainless steel versus plastic water tanks

Have you ever been so thirsty you couldn’t wait to get over to the office water cooler and enjoy a refreshing glass of pure, cold water? There’s nothing like a cup of cool water during a hectic day at work to re-energize your mind, body and spirit. The only problem is, when you went to take your first sip, you didn’t get the pure, crisp taste you were expecting. Instead, all you tasted was the plastic from the water cooler.

Limit your consumption of BPA by going plastic-free

It’s important to get the appropriate amount of water each day to help the body work efficiently. However, when the fluids you consume are stored in disposable plastic bottles, a variety of consequences come with each sip you take.

Disposable plastics harm the planet in numerous ways. When tossed into the trash, these products end up in landfills across the country and could take years to break down, if at all. This can also leach harmful toxins into the soil, which runs directly into water lines and further poisons infrastructure systems. In addition to creating environmental concerns, disposable plastics also lead to significant health ailments.

Regulate your body temperature by consuming the right amount of water

The human body is a complex machine, and when a cog in the structure is removed, it fails to work properly. For example, when a person fails to consume the appropriate amount of water on a daily basis, he or she won’t feel his or her best, and certain internal systems may not perform the necessary tasks.

Two Wisconsin schools encourage students to refill their water bottles

Education officials have begun to push healthier hydration as an influential way for students to impact the planet and their personal well-being. While some schools have taken drastic measures to prevent the sale of bottled water on school grounds, not every college or university has the ability to terminate beverage contracts so freely.

The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and St. Norbert College are two new additions to the eco-friendly movement making its way from the Atlantic to the Pacific. These two campuses have installed water coolers for students and teachers to use to fill up their personal water containers, the Green Bay Press Gazette reports.

“It’s something both students and faculty really want,” said Rick Warpinski, director of the University Union and Shorewood Golf Course at UW-Green Bay, to the news source. “It’s something that gets a lot of use.”

According to the newspaper, refills at the filtered water delivery station for the 2011-12 school year totaled approximately 40,000 eight-ounce bottles of water. St. Norbert equipped its campus with similar machines and saw comparable results.

Both education systems hope the water dispensers will improve student health and reduce the amount of waste that is produced each year by consumers.

American colleges and universities are leading by example and making provisions to help impact the environment, but smaller education systems can follow suit. In fact, smaller schools can take similar steps and switch to more health-conscious hydration methods with relative ease. The water experts at Quench can work with education officials to find quick solutions to the consumption of disposable water bottles. Providing a healthier classroom for today’s youth may mean a brighter and prosperous tomorrow.
