There are two ways to stop hauling cases of plastic bottles home from the store: We can deliver bottled water on a schedule you set, or we can put in a bottleless cooler that plumbs into the water line you already have and filters on site. Gordon Water does both across West Michigan, and we'll tell you which one fits your kitchen and your household, even when it's the cheaper one.
We bring 3-gallon or 5-gallon bottles to your door weekly, biweekly, or monthly, and take the empties with us. Choose high-purity reverse osmosis water (blue cap) or mineral enhanced water (green cap) if plain RO tastes flat to you. Everything is bottled and tested at our own facility in Kalamazoo.
See delivery options →A bottleless cooler connects to your cold water line, filters the water inside the unit, and dispenses it cold, hot, or both. Nothing to lift, nothing to store, nothing to run out of. Filtration is either a layered carbon filter or a reverse osmosis system, depending on what your water needs.
Explore bottleless coolers →If a full cooler doesn't suit the room, there are smaller ways to serve bottled water. A spigot and cradle sits on the counter with no power needed. A crock and stand puts a ceramic crock on a wood stand in several finishes. A battery-powered pump works anywhere, including a cottage or a camper.
See dispenser options →Fill out the form or call 800-928-3768. Tell us how many people are drinking it, whether you want hot water, and where it would go. We'll say which option makes more sense for you.
For delivery, we bring the bottles and the dispenser and place them where you want them. For a bottleless cooler, we handle the install and the water line connection.
Deliveries follow our regular routes, so you can stay on a set schedule or call when you need water, and we’ll bring it the next time we’re in your area. Bottleless coolers get filter changes on a schedule we track, so you don’t have to.
It comes down to how much water your house goes through and whether you'd rather have a delivery on the calendar or a unit plumbed into the wall.
Bottled delivery makes sense if you drink a moderate amount, you like knowing exactly what's in the bottle, you want mineral water rather than plain RO, or you'd rather not have anything plumbed in. It also travels: a crock and stand or a pump works at a cottage where there's no line to tap.
Bottleless makes sense if your household drinks a lot, you're tired of storing full bottles and stacking empties, nobody wants to lift a 5-gallon bottle onto a cooler, or you'd rather pay a flat monthly cost than per bottle. It never runs out mid-week, which is the thing most people say they wanted.
If you're genuinely torn, say so on the form. We'll ask two or three questions and give you a straight recommendation rather than steering you to whichever we'd rather sell.
Bottled water and a cooler handle drinking water. If your showers, laundry, and appliances are dealing with West Michigan hard water, that's a softener question. We can test your water for free and tell you whether it's worth it.
