I would also like to know the answer to this.

I have a water-cooled PC and I only add water to it about once a year when the reservoir is around 2/3 full. My loop is water-tight, not air-tight, so water is slowly lost to evaporation.

I would think enterprise loops would be air-tight but perhaps the cost of implementing that is less than paying for water to be added
