About Water.com
Water.com is an online water delivery service offering bottled water, water cooler rentals, and water filtration equipment delivered to homes and offices on a recurring delivery schedule. The service provides an alternative to purchasing bottled water from retail stores by delivering large format jugs (3-gallon and 5-gallon) on a subscription schedule that ensures a continuous supply of purified drinking water without carrying heavy cases from the store.
Their service model covers home and office water delivery: 5-gallon jugs for office coolers, smaller 3-gallon jugs for home use, water cooler and dispenser rental or purchase, sparkling water options, and filtration system alternatives for consumers who prefer under-sink or countertop filtration over jug delivery. The convenience factor—heavy jugs delivered to your door rather than carried from a store—is the primary value proposition for the service.
Water delivery economics favor businesses with multiple employees who consume high water volumes, making the per-gallon cost more competitive relative to retail bottled water alternatives. For residential customers, comparing the per-gallon delivered cost against a quality under-sink or countertop filtration system (higher upfront cost, very low per-gallon cost ongoing) helps identify the most economical long-term drinking water solution.
Quick Savings Tips
- 5-gallon jug subscriptions are most economical for high-volume office or household water consumption
- Compare per-gallon delivered cost against a quality water filter (Brita Pro, RO system) for long-term value
- Cooler rental vs. purchase: rental is simpler but adds ongoing cost—purchase is better for multi-year users
- Pause or cancel delivery easily during vacations to avoid accumulating excess jugs
- Delivery schedule frequency can be adjusted to match your actual consumption rather than a fixed calendar
