Water Dispensers & Filtration

Perhaps you want a water dispenser for your home or office because you’re interested in having clean drinking water at your fingertips. You might also be focused on encouraging your family to drink more fluids to stay better hydrated or looking to save money, eliminate waste and be more environmentally friendly by using reusable water bottles. Whatever the reason you want one, you’ll find a large selection of water machine options at Best Buy.

You may opt for a water purifier because you might not trust the quality of water that comes out of the tap, or you don’t like the taste of tap water. A filtered water dispenser, especially one with an NSF-certified filter, can be counted on to remove rust, dirt, sediment, odor, residual chlorine, organic matter, and lead, which helps improve overall taste. Additionally, a water cooler for home can expedite cooking, meal prep and make instant meals more kid-accessible. For instance, with a hot water dispenser you can quickly make soup, cocoa or instant oatmeal, melt butter or chocolate. You can even partially defrost ice cream for easier scooping. Water dispensers can also be useful for providing a quick hot or cold compress to treat a muscle strain or to reduce swelling. Some of the water jug dispenser models include a cabinet that provides extra storage space. 

When selecting the best water dispenser for you, there are a few things to consider. Do you want a unit that provides cold water, hot water and room temperature water? Or, if you’re comfortable using a tea kettle to produce hot water, you might be looking for a water cooler, which only provides cold and room temperature water.

Do you prefer a bottled water dispenser that accommodates disposable water containers? If so, your options run from under a gallon to five gallons or more. If you’re interested in a five-gallon water dispenser, it might require maintenance, and you’ll need to haul and store spare water jugs. If you don’t want to do these things, you may want to choose a bottleless hot and cold water dispenser that’s connected directly to a water line, much like an ice maker or in-line coffee maker.

Another important consideration is where you want to put the water dispenser, which will likely lead you to deciding on style, choosing between a freestanding water cooler and a countertop water dispenser that takes up no floor space. Knowing exactly what your expectations are will help you select the water cooler dispenser that will best provide you and your family with clear, clean quality water.
