What we install
The full range for Canterbury offices
Mains-fed water coolers
Plumbed-in coolers and 4-in-1 taps for chilled, ambient, sparkling and hot filtered water from the mains. The most common pick for Canterbury offices with accessible plumbing. Multi-stage carbon and scale-reduction filter, changed every six months on scheduled service.
Bottle-fed water coolers
British spring water in 19-litre bottles, delivered on a schedule that suits usage. For Canterbury sites where mains plumbing is not practical (heritage buildings, short-lease space, mezzanine offices).
Office water boilers and 4-in-1 boiling taps in Canterbury
A commercial boiling water tap replaces the office kettle entirely. Single-action 100°C dispenser with a child-safe lock, delivered to your under-sink area, plumbed and running inside an hour. For a full 4-in-1 setup we combine boiling with chilled, ambient and sparkling. The neatest single-fixture solution for a Canterbury office kitchen.
- All-inclusive monthly rental: installation, filter changes, servicing and 24-hour breakdown cover included. No callout charges. Fixed quote after a free site survey.
- Install lead time: around a week from signed quote for Canterbury sites. Under an hour on the day for a standard tap.
- Running cost: minimal electricity per day. Cheaper than a busy kettle over the year.
- Safety: child-safe lock on every model. Two decades of installs with no safety incidents.

Why local matters in Canterbury
An engineer within reach, not a helpdesk queue
We are family-run from Watford, with our own engineers on Kent routes every week. When a cooler breaks or a boiling tap starts leaking, the call routes to a person who can dispatch a van the same working day. Not to a national ticket queue that promises a fortnight's response.
National suppliers (Culligan, Waterlogic and others) sell in Canterbury, but they subcontract service in most regions. Aquathirst handles every install and every callout with our own team. That is the difference between a service contract and a paperwork exercise.
