We don’t think there is anybody in the world at this point who doesn’t understand how important water and access to drinking water is for human health, and for that reason alone, the installation of a water vending machine in pretty much any location is something that you might want to consider.
It is an obvious connection but not every healthcare institute follows through on the link between health and water. Any healthcare setting is going to be one that benefits most from a water vending machine including:
Hospitals
Clinics
GP offices
Dentists
Medical Spas
Care homes
Having fresh, chilled water available to staff, patients, and visitors via a vending machine offer numerous benefits:
THE HEALTHIEST CHOICE
There is absolutely no arguing with the fact that clean drinking water provides the healthiest option for hydration out of all the potential beverages that you could find in a vending machine. Carbonated sodas and sugar-filled fruit juices are certainly tasty and can satisfy a craving, but compared to good old-fashioned water, the health benefits are not even in the same ballpark.
THEY’RE CONVENIENT TO LOCATE
A water vending machine is an easy machine to place anywhere in an office or other space, compared to some more complicated vending machines that are too large or need to be located next to main outlets, etc.
THEY OFFER GREAT CONVENIENCE FOR ALL USERS
In an ideal world, everybody would carry a reusable bottle of water around with them in order to maintain their healthy hydration at all times, but we all know that this never proves to be a realistic part of daily life. Having a water vending machine placed in your establishment removes this problem for people. It makes proper hydration a much more convenient and achievable goal for them.
THEY’RE EASY TO MAINTAIN
Compared to other types of vending machines, something that water dispensers have going for them is just how easy they are to maintain. There is very little heavy-duty maintenance involved in owning and using a water vending machine, which can give peace of mind to the owner of the machine and make them feel less anxious about having to regularly repair it.
THERE’S THE POTENTIAL FOR AN INCOME STREAM
If you choose to charge for the use of your water vending machine, then it can provide a modest but not insignificant boost to your institution’s income. You will want to think about how much you want to charge for this service, as it needs to be a balance of convenience and affordability. Too high and customers won’t be interested.
