What is a Bottom-Loading Water Cooler? A bottom-loading water cooler conceals the water bottle inside the base of the unit rather than displaying it on top. This design uses a quiet pump to draw water to the taps, completely eliminating the need for heavy lifting while providing a sleek, modern look for the workplace.

How does a bottom-loading water cooler work?
A bottom-loading cooler holds the bottle in its cabinet base and uses a pump to draw water up to the taps, so you never need to lift a bottle on top of the machine. Tell us where the cooler will go and we'll recommend a suitable model.
Why choose a bottom-loading cooler over a top-loading one?
With a bottom-loading cooler, you slide the bottle into the cabinet base rather than lifting it overhead, which helps if lifting full bottles is a concern. The bottle also sits inside the cabinet, out of sight.
