Colder Water Tastes Better, And Serves MoreHave you ever had water that wasn't very cold from a water cooler? This is common, as industry standard for water cooler temperature is about 50F/10C. That's not very cold. For comparison, fridges cool drinks to about 40F/5C
Our ice chill technology gets our water just as cold or colder than refrigerator temperatures. Which means the water tastes better.
We use a large ring of ice to chill our water cold. People have reported using about 30% more water from our coolers because the water just tastes better when it's ice chilled.
Those figures speak for themselves. Using our water coolers makes drinking water that much more enjoyable.
The large ring of ice also makes this a perfect cooler for large volume use, such as at offices, schools, warehouses, or large families that want a lot of water at once. When the cold tank is emptied of chilled water, warm water rushes in from the bottle. The ice mixes with the water, chilling it quickly.
Normal water coolers don't have this ice ring to quickly chill the water. Instead you have to wait 15 or 20 minutes for the water to cool down again. Otherwise you get warm water.
Another benefit to the ice ring is that it prevents bacteria from growing. The reason fridge temperatures are set to below 40F/5C is that bacteria grows very very slowly at this temperature. At temperatures of 50F/10C, bacteria is able to reproduce more quickly.
Our ice chill ring keeps the water very cold, which slows bacterial growth while making deliciously refreshing glasses of water.
Large Cold Water Reservoir Makes Far More Water
We use an oversize cold tank in order to generate a larger volume of cold water. This combined with our ice chill technology makes our water coolers perfect for larger offices. A client told me how he had installed just one water cooler at a busy construction site under the blazing sun, and it was enough to provide ice chilled water to a large crew of thirsty men.
Lasts Up To 6 Times Longer
Our unique Ice Chill Technology is a lot gentler on the cooling mechanisms. Because our water coolers make a lot of ice, they turn on far less frequently that other water coolers. Other water coolers focus on chilling water. As water temperature fluctuates up and down a lot the thermostats turn on and off a lot.
Our steady cooling only turns on a fraction of the time other water coolers turn on. That's because the ice steadily keeps the water cold, which prevents the thermostat from switching on again.
The water is kept at an optimum temperature. In a normal cooling system, as water is drawn out into cups, and warm water comes into the cooler, the water in the cold tank is warm. The thermostat detects this, and switches on.
In our water coolers, when you take water out, and warm water enters the cold tank from the bottle. The warm water gets chilled by the ICE. This decreases the amount of times the thermostat needs to turn on and off.
When no one is using the coolers, the ice slowly melts, keeping the water at an evenly cold temperature, reducing the burden on the thermostat. Other brands constantly turn on and off as their water temperature fluctuates without the ice. Over time this wears down the thermostat and compressor starter. Two parts that any seasoned water cooler technician will let you know are some of the first parts that break down.
If you want a long lasting water cooler, our ice chill technology does wonders in extending the life of the parts that traditionally fail.
Steaming Hot Water Means No More Wasted Tea
The most frustrating thing with hot water in water coolers is when it's not hot enough. Have you ever had the experience of trying to make tea with hot water from a water cooler, and it not being hot enough to properly make the tea? This is a common experience, as the regular hot tank technology heats irregularly. Sometimes the water will be very hot, other times not hot enough to make tea. This is because the thermostat cycles the temperature over a wide range of temperatures.
We've designed a special system that keeps our water steaming hot at all times. Out of all the hot tanks we've tested, our design keeps the water at the highest average temperature. This means our water is always steaming hot, which means you won't need to throw out any more cups of tea because of not so hot water.
Prevent Those Disgusting White Flakes In Your Hot Water
One of the most disappointing things that can happen with your water cooler is white mineral flakes. If you're like me, you like using hot water to make warm drinks. Over time, normal water coolers will develop white mineral flake buildup in their hot tanks. This happens when water that contains minerals, like spring water is used. Hot water tanks heat the water at high temperatures. This causes the water next to the heating element to quickly boil, which precipitates minerals from the water. If you have ever seen the inside of an electric water kettle, you'll have seen how the flakes build up around the heating element. This is a very common problem with hot water in water coolers. It can take a few months to a couple of years to build up, but after that, you're hot water will spit out disgusting white flakes into your cups. Our AntiFlake technology gently heats the water in the hot tank. Because the heating is done gently, you don't get the same type of mineral precipitation as in other hot tanks. The development of mineral flakes is completely prevented in some cases, and in others with higher mineral content, takes a lot longer to form than with standard hot tanks. That means you may never see the flakes at all, or with harder water, descaling of the hot tanks can be done with far less frequency.
Child Resistant Hot Faucet
Our child resistant faucets prevent accidental spilling of hot water. They are more difficult to operate that standard non-safety faucets, as they require actions in two different directions order to activate.
That being said, toddlers are incredibly smart, especially when it comes to getting into trouble. So we recommend that the hot water switch remain shut off if toddlers will be unsupervised around the water coolers, just in case.
Prevents Leaks From Damaging Your Floor
Would you like to wake up in the morning and find water flooded all over your kitchen floor? About 1 in 1000 water bottles have pinhole leaks. These are not detectable when the water bottle is full of water. But when it's on the water cooler, and the water level falls below the hole. Air gets sucked in, and the contents of the bottle empty out onto the floor, often damaging furniture and appliances.
To prevent this from happening there are 2 choices. A bottom loading water cooler sucks the water up, So there's no gravity forcing the water down a hole in the bottom of the bottle. Since the hole is on top, water doesn't spill out once the water level drops below where the hole is.
The other option, if you prefer bottles on top, is a leak guard. Most of our Electrotemp water coolers come with a FREE leak guard. This product can retail for about $49.99, yet it's included for free in our Bottles on Top cooler line. Why do we do this? We want you to be completely satisfied with your cooler. No leaks, no hassles.
No Spill Water Bottle Cap Compatible
The original style of water cooler had an open top. You would peel off the flat cap from the top of the bottle and quickly invert the bottle onto the top of the water cooler. If any of you have done this before you'll know that the water doesn't always end up all in the cooler. If you're an average guy like I am, it probably spilled a bit on the floor. And then had to mop it up with the cloth.
Our no spill device works in tandem with a special no spill water bottle cap that is becoming more and more common on bottles these days. You don't need to remove this bottle cap so when you invert it know water is spilled. The top of the water cooler has a receptacle with a spike. This spike punctures the bottle cap, and feeds water directly into the cooler.
All our bottled water coolers that take the bottle on top come with this device. No more wasting water, no more wasting time cleaning up spills.
Flat Water Bottle Cap Compatible
If you are currently using an open reservoir system for your water coolers, this water cooler also comes with that capability. It comes with the newer no spill device, as well as the traditional open reservoir ring. If you choose to transition to the newer style of bottle cap in the future, these water coolers are perfect.
You can start with the open reservoir ring, and switched to the no spill device later.

Save Energy By Switching Off Your Hot Water At Night
On the back of the cooler you'll find a switch for the hot water. If you'll be out all day, it might make sense to switch this off, and you'll save little bit in electricity costs.
The hot water function is excellent. If you like drinking tea like I do, it beats having to wait until the kettle boils. When you're busy, you may not have time to fill the pot wait till it boils, steep the tea, wait till it cools, and then drink it. You can convert what is usually a 20 minute process into the latter part where you just steep the tea until it's ready to drink.
Our hot water system is highly energy-efficient, but it's still a waste to leave it running all the time when you're not using it.
Generous Drip Tray Catches Those Irritating Spills
If the drip tray is too shallow, there's a risk of water spilling and making a mess. Our deep drip trays are perfect for catching water that misses your glass. Or water purposely spilled by an adventurous toddler. They are easily detachable for dumping out water.
This model features an open top drip tray that prevents splashes that the usual tray grid causes. Also prevents people from losing the top grid, as there is none. Depth designed to be able to balance a cup while pouring water.
Don't Waste Time With a Slow Water Flow
Have you ever waiting a long time to fill up your glass at a water cooler? If so, you're not alone. Most water coolers pour water out at a tortuously slow rate. People are used to the rush of water that comes out of kitchen and bathroom sinks. So the slow drip of most water coolers is a source of frustration to many. We've designed our faucets to fill glasses fast. They fill a standard sized cup in less than 4.3 seconds. Other models we've tested have taken 12 seconds! If you drink 8 glasses a day with that cooler, you've wasted 36 seconds a day. And 6 hours and 15 minutes a year. I'm sure you can think of better ways to spend your time!
Certified By All Kinds of Global Quality Assurance Agencies like ISO9001
Our water coolers have qualified for many global electrical standards. Our factory has also received certification from many independent inspection agencies. We have CSA US, CE, RoHS, Energy Star, SGS, ISO9001, as well as other certifications proving our quality from independent sources.
Handy Carrying Handle Makes Installation a Breeze
Water Coolers are not the lightest thing in the kitchen to move around. And they're also awkward to move. In order to make your job easier, we've added a carrying handle at the back of the cooler. This was you can easily position it as you like. Or if you'd like to move the cooler upstairs, downstairs, or to the cottage, the handle is balanced to carry the cooler easily with one hand.
Rest Easy, We Supply Spare Parts, Just in Case Something Breaks
One thing I see frequently on the internet are people not being able to find parts for their appliances. In the case of water coolers, often people break the faucets, and can't find replacements.
Our water coolers are built to last, but some parts may be damaged over time. For example a dog may scratch the front of the water cooler. Or someone may knock it over when the kitchen is being redecorated.
Whatever the reason, we'd like you to know that many of the parts are stocked at our warehouses. If you're concerned that we might not carry parts 10 years down the road, you can buy a parts replacement kit.

Accessories
Extended Warranty For Up To 5 Years Protection
Our water coolers are built well, classic commercial grade. Many will still be working 20 years down the road. But once in a while, there may be some that may fail after the 3 years of our standard warranty.
For those that want the ease of mind that an extended warranty brings, we offer up to 6 years, double our standard warranty. You can buy 1, 2 or 3 years extra protection.
External Ozonator Slays Germs Dead
Studies done on water cooler bacteria reveal, that about 38% of home water coolers have coliform or pathogenic bacteria. Coliform is fecal bacteria like E. Coli. Even if you don't get sick, it can affect the taste, giving an earthy, muddy off taste. And besides, it's just gross.
This hooks up behind the water cooler, and is tucked away out of sight. The device sends powerful bursts of ozone into the water cooler, killing bacteria and viruses.
But if this isn't an option right now, you can also manually clean your water coolers with a mild bleach or hydrogen peroxide solution every few weeks.
Cleaning your water cooler will keep the water tasting fresh, and bacteria out of the water.
Powering Up The Water Cooler
1. After completely unpacking the water cooler. Place it near the wall, leaving 4" clearance. This helps air circulation, which increases the cooling and energy efficiency. Plug the cord into a power outlet.
2. Make sure the power switch/es at the top back of the water cooler are turned on.
3. Leave for about 30 minutes to allow a good sized ring of ice to form.
4. Enjoy your ice chilled water.
