A combination water cooler and refrigerator unit is provided including a lower cabinet defining a refrigerated compartment, and an upper water reservoir for receiving a supply of water from a water source, such as an inverted water bottle. A refrigeration system mounted within the cabinet includes a chiller coil having a first segment for chilling the refrigerated compartment, and a second segment for chilling water within the water reservoir. In addition, a lower end of the water reservoir is positioned in heat transfer relation with an upper region of the refrigerated compartment, and a single thermostatic temperature control sensor is mounted within the refrigerated compartment for regulating the refrigeration system for substantially eliminating risk of reservoir or refrigerator freeze up.
