Bottom-Loaded Water Coolers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Eden Springs Storm Water Dispenser Simplifies Refilling

— April 12, 2019 — Art & Design
The Eden Springs Storm Water Dispenser has been released by the brand as a new option for the workplace that will streamline the bottle replacement process to ensure employees are getting as much proper hydration as possible. The water cooler features a bottom-loaded design that keeps the large jug of water discreetly stored in the base instead of positioned on top like other options on the market. The unit also features an LED indicator that will let users know when it's time to swap out the water reservoir or the Smartflo water cartridge.

The inspiration behind the Eden Springs Storm Water Dispenser was explained by Managing Director at Eden Springs UK Brian Macpherson who said, "With studies showing that only 10% of employees drink the recommended 6-8 glasses of water a day, and with a drop in hydration of just 1-2% reducing cognitive performance by 10%, providing a bottled water cooler is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to promote hydration and employee wellbeing. By encouraging your staff to drink more water, you can reduce health-related absences, increase worker morale and improve workplace productivity. The Storm’s contemporary yet ergonomic design, attractive finish, concealed faucets and easy maintenance makes it a fantastic addition to any location looking to care for their employees, customers and visitors."
