Advisory first

Best for small-to-medium offices that want a high-quality hydration point in kitchenettes, breakout zones or client-facing areas without a floor-standing footprint.

The Borg & Overstrom B3 is a premium countertop water dispenser for offices that want a high-quality hydration point without the floor footprint of a freestanding cooler. It delivers chilled, ambient and hot filtered water from a single touch panel, with optional sparkling for teams that want it. The compact format lets it sit comfortably on a kitchenette counter, in a meeting-area break-out, or alongside a coffee station, anywhere people gather and natural cup-of-water moments happen.

We typically recommend the B3 for small-to-medium offices (around 5–25 staff) where the demand profile is steady rather than high-volume. It works particularly well in modern fit-outs with limited spare floor space, and in client-facing reception areas where a freestanding unit would feel out of place. The integrated commercial-grade filtration is built for daily refills throughout the working day, and the touch panel keeps the dispense experience consistent for first-time visitors and regulars alike.

Rather than treating the B3 as an off-the-shelf install, we take a consultative approach. We map the demand profile of the space, the available counter run, plumbing access for the mains feed, and how the unit will be serviced. We then recommend the B3 only when those constraints line up. If you're weighing the B3 against a freestanding option, we walk through the trade-offs honestly so you choose what genuinely fits.

In practice

Why this works for workplace teams

Smaller footprint

Countertop format keeps walkways clear while still delivering a premium hydration offer, ideal where floor space is at a premium.

Better user experience

Fast, reliable dispense options improve convenience in busy shared areas. The touch panel keeps the experience consistent for new and regular users.

Long-term practicality

Service-friendly design helps facilities teams keep uptime high. Planned filter exchanges and remote diagnostics where supported reduce surprise call-outs.

Common Borg & Overstrom B3 questions

Answers to what we're most often asked when scoping a rollout.

The B3 is well-suited to offices of around 5–25 staff with steady daily usage. Larger teams or higher-traffic break-rooms usually benefit from stepping up to a freestanding model, and we'll talk you through the right fit during the consultation.

The B3 has a compact countertop footprint and fits comfortably alongside a coffee machine or sink. We confirm exact dimensions during the on-site survey, along with access needed for the below-counter mains-water feed.

Yes. The B3 is mains-fed, so it needs a cold-water connection and a standard power socket nearby. Our install team handles everything on the day, including commissioning and a usage walk-through.

Each install comes with a planned service schedule covering filter exchanges and routine sanitisation. Most issues are resolved in a single visit, and where the unit supports it we monitor remotely so we can catch any performance drops early.

The sparkling configuration is normally specified at install time, since it requires the dispenser hardware and a CO₂ cylinder bay. If you want flexibility for the future, flag it during the survey and we'll plan ahead so it can be added with minimal disruption.
