A Boom in Water Fountains
A few weeks ago, we met a upsurge of inquiries from primary schools about our drinking water fountains. The first query was from a schoolhouse in Lincoln who are looking to be in a position to supply drinking water for all pupils in every last classroom. The Victorian primary school was looking to exchange scruffy sinks in each room with a modern wall mounted fountain sink. This simple unit has tiny dimensions and only has a bubbler for children to guzzle from. With wall mounted sinks the drinking water comes directly from the mains supply, is passed through a water filter if necessary and comes out of the bubbler when a small knob is compressed. The basicdesign of wall mounted sink is lacking a chilling unit and so the water comes out of the bubbler at mains water temperature. The second enquiry was for an outdoor freestanding water fountain for the middle of a childrens play area. There are many fountains built in the UK that are appropriate for big usage external surroundings. We could seek out three specific fountains that corresponded to the remit including one that has been especially conditioned for a primary school where the drinking area is at 800mm rather than the 1 metre suited to grown ups.
