Drinking Water for Offices

Drinking water for offices is high-quality, filtered or purified water supplied in the workplace using modern water dispensers, water coolers or filter systems. It stands out for its cleanliness, taste, convenient access, and reduced plastic use, and contributes to employee health and productivity.

The warm season is approaching, when people drink several times more water than in the cold season, and this is only natural, since we lose more fluids on a hot summer day too. Although summer is holiday time, work still carries on in offices, where good-quality drinking water matters no less than it does at home.
How do you choose the best drinking water systems for offices, how do you improve productivity and provide more convenient, more accessible water in the workplace? There are a few rules that will help ensure you drink the right amount of water.

Tasty water

As the saying goes, there's no accounting for taste, but there's really no point arguing over what makes water taste good. Tasty water is, first and foremost, pure and safe water. Clean water has no taste, smell or colour. Tasty water helps you feel refreshed and quenches your thirst. You've probably heard someone say they can't stand plain water, so they drink lemonade or other drinks that aren't exactly good for our health. That's not true. First of all, it's a matter of habit: if you drank water to refresh yourself from an early age, rather than sugary carbonated drinks, then as an adult you wouldn't have any trouble feeling satisfied by water either.
However, swayed by advertising, we drink a lot of sweetened water, which the body gets used to very quickly, and then it works the other way round — we want even more of it. Sugar typically signals a kind of simulated pleasure to the body, stimulating dopamine in our system, so we feel happier and more energetic, but only temporarily. Once that energy rush fades, we crave the same thing again, and that's how we fall into the sugar trap.
Giving up sugary drinks isn't easy once the habit is ingrained, but the right amount and quality of water can make you feel just as good. What's more, you won't feel guilty, you won't be plagued by a constant craving for sweets, and you'll lower your risk of cardiovascular disease.
Doctors have been talking about this for years, every single day, yet people still find it hard to change their habits. But perhaps improving water quality can help solve this too?

Drinking water dispensers in offices

Offices most often have water containers fitted with water pumps. This is an old way of getting clean water, and not necessarily a reliable one. To begin with, it's a procedure that takes a lot of time and effort: someone has to order the water, someone has to keep replacing the plastic water containers, then the empty ones need to be stored somewhere, and a courier or the service company's representative has to be called out again to swap the empty containers for full ones.
It's also worth noting that these plastic water containers aren't easy to keep completely clean — they aren't always cleaned and properly maintained to be fit for refilling with water. In that case, drinking water straight from the tap becomes the more suitable option, if it's fit for that purpose.
Nowadays, drinking water dispensers are already manufactured together with water filters, in case there aren't any in the office. Of course, it's recommended that you carry out a chemical water test to make sure that the filter in the dispenser really does guarantee full water quality, and if not – to install separate drinking water filters, water softening and iron removal filters, and only then the drinking water dispenser.
With a smart, modern unit that supplies your water, you'll save a lot of time and, most importantly, you'll be confident that your drinking water is good quality and tastes great.

Benefits of drinking water dispensers for offices

Modern units don't just supply clean, purified water — they also let you choose exactly the kind you like best: sparkling, ice-cold, or even hot enough to make your favourite hot drinks.
These drinking water dispensers are practical, require minimal maintenance, look stylish, and save electricity. With a smart unit, you'll no longer need to buy bottled water, so you'll use less plastic, drink healthier water, and easily refill your own bottles.

What makes water good quality?

There's a common belief and myth that water is always clean and safe to drink. That's not true. Water quality changes, and this can easily be established with a chemical water test at a certified water-testing laboratory.
Aquafilter specialists recommend that you consult them before choosing your water treatment equipment. We've been working in this market for more than 23 years and are well acquainted with water quality issues across Lithuania.
Here's a first example: even when travelling within Lithuania, doesn't it happen that when you arrive somewhere new and unfamiliar for a holiday, you find yourself asking whether the tap water is safe to drink? That question doesn't come up for nothing, since everyone knows this is something to pay particular attention to, especially in Western Lithuania.
Another myth – that city water is clean. That's not true either. Yes, many big cities have already replaced their pipework, flushed it clean, or carried out other necessary steps to guarantee safe drinking water, but we can see that demand for water filters is growing every day, which signals water quality problems being detected. The two most common problems we hear about from our customers are water with too much iron, and, without a doubt, the most common of all – water that's too hard, or in other words – limescale-laden water.
All these water quality problems can easily be solved with water filters, which specialists need to select correctly.

What are the benefits of water, and how much should you drink a day?

Health experts have written countless recommendations on how much water to drink per day, yet somehow it's still not enough. So, the number most often quoted is two litres a day. But even that isn't entirely accurate either. The right amount of water for a person is calculated according to their body mass and activity level, because naturally, if you exercise a lot or do physically demanding work, especially on a hot day, two litres definitely won't be enough. And can you drink too much water? Unfortunately, yes. It's not recommended to drink more water than your family doctor advises. For people with kidney or liver conditions, too much water can cause serious health problems.
The benefits of water are countless: our bodies are made up of water, so it's essential for our full physical functioning. Water contains minerals, helps with better digestion, and provides energy.
Drinking water should become part of your normal daily routine. This will help you avoid dehydration and protect your immune system against various illnesses. If you travel or walk a lot, always carry a water bottle with you. A stainless-steel one is recommended, as it protects against the elements and sunlight and keeps water fresh for longer. Don't forget to clean your bottle regularly too, since bacteria and dirt can start to build up inside it.
