Advantages of 5 Gallon Glass Water Cooler Bottles?

For a variety of reasons, many people prefer to use a 5 gallon water jug made of glass rather than the much more commonly found bicarbonate plastic for their water cooler.

Although most modern bicarbonate plastic bottles are made with BPA free material, some people still prefer the health protections and safety inherent in using a glass bottle.

There are also aesthetic considerations that must be taken into account when choosing the right type of bottle, and most people would agree that glass bottles are more appealing to the eye.

The downside to glass bottles is that they are much heavier than plastic and therefore more difficult to load and unload from the water dispenser, and they are obviously more fragile and at risk for breaking.

With the glass jug, however, you will not need to worry about any of the chemicals used in the manufacturing process leaching into your drinking water and causing health safety concerns.

Many home brewers of beer and wine use 5 gallon glass bottles as well, as they are preferable to plastic for this purpose.
