Key factors in choosing the right filtered water dispenser

Choosing a water dispenser with a high-quality water supply is essential for ensuring that you and your family stay hydrated and healthy.

• Budget

This is often the most important consideration before buying anything. Do you want the cheapest filtered water dispenser there is or is money freely available to you? Before you go shopping for that Hot and Cold Filtered Water Dispenser, you should know what you want to spend. It is also important to determine if you are going for form or function, or maybe a little bit of both. There are a lot of stylish filtered water dispensers in the market that will allow you to have the best of both worlds.

• Point of use water filtration system

Do you need a desktop or a freestanding filtered water dispenser? Can your area accommodate a big one or a small one for the Bench Top? Buying the right filtered water dispenser means knowing where you’ll put it. If you are thinking of putting the filtered water dispenser on the kitchen bench top, it should fit under the cupboards above it. If you are buying a filtered water dispenser for your office, you can choose the freestanding point of use filtered water dispenser if you have the floor area to accommodate it.  There is no filling up the hot and cold water dispenser as it is connected directly to the mains water.  This is the perfect solution to high traffic situations that require high volumes of water on tap.

• Loading and dispense area

These two factors are often overlooked when choosing the right filtered water dispenser. Is it top or bottom loading? Is the dispense area just right for the people who will use it? Top or bottom loading means you need a jug to supply water to your filtered water dispenser. The jugs can dispense water from the top or bottom. Depending on the size of the unit, these jugs can hold 5 to 20 gallons of water. Top or bottom loading filtered water dispensers can be seen usually in offices.

The other factor, the dispense area dictates the size of the water container that can fit underneath its tap. If you put the filtered water dispenser in an area where people keep refilling their water containers, you should choose a filtered water dispenser with a large dispense area. You don’t want people lining up just to get filtered water. If you are just going to fill cups or glasses, a small dispense area will do.

• Temperature variations

Most filtered water dispensers can dispense hot, cold, or ambient water. Some expensive ones can even dispense sparkling water. Water dispensers with temperature variations will consume more power than what was used in filtered water dispensers with just cold water. What you’ll choose will depend on where you will put the filtered water dispenser. It is better to buy filtered water dispensers with temperature variations for the office so people can enjoy their coffee or tea without going out. However, if you are going to put the filtered water dispenser in an area with a lot of children, the hot water option might not be a good idea if you don’t have a safety child lock like our premium quality models.
