pump room

Resort water station

A pump room is a space housing mechanical pumps and related equipment, typically for water circulation, heating systems, or industrial processes.

In spas and resort towns, the pump room was historically where visitors gathered to drink mineral water drawn from therapeutic springs: taking the waters in the pump room at Bath.

The term now more commonly refers to utilitarian spaces containing pool pumps, building water systems, or industrial machinery.
