Ready for a refill? Elkay EZH20 bottle filling station has a fill rate of 1.1 gallon-per minute (gpm) for a refrigerated unit, which is three times faster than a standard drinking fountain.
The unit is sensor-activated, so users don’t have to touch anything. The bottle can be held or placed on the designed platform to balance the bottle as it is being filled. The intuitive, touchless operation helps keep the station clean and germ free.
What makes Elkay EZH20 bottle filling station appealing? It fills bottles with filtered water in seconds and providing sustainable benefits by reducing the dependency on disposable plastic bottles. The “Green Ticker” visually quantifies the number of 20 oz. bottles saved from landfills. Imagine the difference that we can make by reducing our use of plastic bottles.
Water filling stations are available for new drinking fountains, and also as retrofit kits. Ideal locations include schools, higher education, medical facilities, and commercial building lobbies.
