Are Your Water Systems Up To Par?

In most workplaces, the water cooler is a staple. But just like computers, phones, and coffee machines, water systems have evolved. If your office is still relying on outdated models or bottled systems, you could be missing out on major upgrades that improve efficiency, quality, and employee satisfaction.

Then vs. Now: The Evolution of Water Coolers

Bottled to Bottleless

Old water coolers required heavy 5-gallon jugs and constant monitoring.

→ Today’s systems tap directly into your water line, offering endless filtration without lifting a finger.

Basic Dispensing to Full Customization

Then: cold or room temp water.

Now: Choose from hot, cold, ambient, and even sparkling or flavored water with a single touch. Brands like Bevi and Flowater offer modern, touchless interfaces that cater to every preference.

Basic Filters to Multi-Stage Purification

Earlier systems barely filtered out sediment.

Now: Units like Flowater use 7-stage purification, removing heavy metals, chlorine, and microplastics — ensuring your team gets the best water possible.

Energy Hog to Energy Efficient

Outdated coolers run constantly and use inefficient cooling.

Modern models are ENERGY STAR® certified, insulated, and programmed for lower power consumption — helping your business go greener and leaner.

Maintenance Headaches to Set-It-and-Forget-It Service

Past: Waiting weeks for service or replacements.

Today: Capitol Coffee provides scheduled maintenance and filter changes as part of your water service — no surprise breakdowns or outages.

Why It Matters for Your Workplace

Boost Hydration → Flavored and sparkling options encourage more water intake.

Reduce Clutter → No more giant bottles taking up space or posing injury risk.

Increase Morale → Modern hydration stations are sleek, touchless, and satisfying.

Support Sustainability → Lower plastic use and energy consumption = a greener workplace.

Is It Time to Upgrade?

Take 2 minutes and ask yourself:

• Are we still lifting water jugs?
• Do our employees have hydration options they enjoy?
• Is our system energy efficient and regularly serviced?

If the answer to any of those is no, it may be time to refresh your water setup.

Capitol Coffee offers cutting-edge solutions like Flowater, Bevi, and Follett, with full installation, service, and support.
