Okay, here’s the funny part: Quench doesn’t sell you the machine. They lease it to you, like a possessive ex who still wants to know your schedule. You pay a monthly fee that includes maintenance, filters, and the occasional service call when the CO2 tank runs out. It’s like a subscription for your hydration—Netflix, but you can drink it.
The price? For a commercial unit, you’re looking at $30 to $60 per month. For a home unit? They’ll sell you one directly for about $2,000, which is cheaper than buying 10,000 plastic bottles but still stings like a paper cut. And let’s be honest: if you’re the only person in your house who cares about fizzy water, you’re basically paying $50 a month to annoy your spouse with the hissing sound.
Sparkling and Flavored Water Systems
The Surprising Science of Fizz
Here’s a weird fact that will impress no one at parties: sparkling water is actually slightly more acidic than still water because of the carbonic acid formed from CO2. Your teeth might not love it, but your taste buds will throw a parade. Quench’s filtration removes the minerals that make some tap water taste like a wet sock, so the bubbly result is clean and neutral—like a Swiss bank account.
Another fun fact: the bubbles in Quench’s water are three times smaller than those in a typical soda fountain. Why? Because they use a “chilled carbonation” process where the CO2 is dissolved at near-freezing temperatures. Smaller bubbles mean less burping. I call it “dignified effervescence.” Your coworkers will thank you.
