With the need to address the growing demand for a range of units which can be operated ‘hands-free’, we are pulling together, in one place, touchless units which protect the user.
Whether this be bottle filling water coolers and fountains or infra-red or knee operated taps on hand wash stations, we have sourced a number of units, when used correctly, that are safe against virus contamination.
We will continue to add more products to our range as they become available, but if in the meantime you have seen something of interest elsewhere, do get in touch as we can normally supply units for most manufacturers.
And finally, a word about existing water coolers and fountains, with the correct cleaning routine these can be used safely. For more information about restarting, cleaning and caring for water coolers and boilers please see our blog post guide.
A hands free - pedal operated fountain, designed as a bottle and glass filler with no bubbler. Ideal for meeting the need for a high quality, robust water fountain which combines bottle filling with the need to protect from possible virus contamination. The unit is built to the same high specification as the WFT6 incorporating direct chill/pressure cooler technology, providing up to 30 litres/hour of chilled drinking water. It is mains connected and can be fitted with a carbon filter to remove Chlorine taste and smell. Waste water is removed via a 32mm diameter, 2-metre-long waste pipe which is flexible and extendable.
A high capacity hands free - pedal operated fountain, with the unique HPDC® cooling system. Ideal for schools, public spaces, community centres, offices, airports and anywhere that requires a touchless supply of drinking water. The HPDC® cooling system not only rapidly cools the water ready for drinking, it also uses antibacterial copper, a material especially suited to combatting bacterial proliferation. The unit has a tough stainless-steel cabinet and a spacious compartment that can house a filtration system.
The HydroBoost Bottle Filling Station is a simple, compact and effective bottle filling unit with a no-touch, hands free sensor and automatic 20-second shut off timer suitable for indoor, high footfall areas. The unit is surface mounted making it ideal for installations with limited wall depth. It is available with or without a filter, the filter having a 3000 lite capacity before requiring replacement.
Additionally, the unit helps reduce plastic waste through removing the need for single-use bottles and cups. As a non-refrigerated unit, it uses very little electricity (although it can be easily connected to a remote chiller if necessary). It is fully compliant with GreenSpec – the UK’s foremost 'Green Building' resource – guidelines and WRAS certified.
The HydroBoost Bottle Filling Station features a self-contained wall-mounted design, making it ideal even when space is tight. Designed for indoor use, the unit delivers chilled water up to 42 litres per hour at between 7 & 13 degrees C. The bottle filler is triggered by a sensor and uses laminar flow to ensure the bottle is filed with minimal effort and spillages. The unit is one of the most low-maintenance drinking fountain and bottle filling stations on the market. It is designed with a tough stainless-steel cooler top and a satin finish which resists water marks and fingerprints.
Updated to meet the need to provide contactless water dispensing, the CWS ArcticChill 88CL cooler combines the top selling ArcticChill 88 with a motion sensor to dispense water. Simply hold your hand approx. 4cm in front of the sensor to dispense and remove your hand to stop dispensing. The cooler comes complete with a 10ltr overflow kit as standard. The Arctic Chill has the cooling capacity you need to handle up to 40 litres per hour with 120 cups immediate draw off – all below 12 deg C.
An alternative premium Borg and Overstrom water dispenser offers all the enhanced features and options of the B3.2 mains-fed water cooler but is equally suitable to executive suites as well as sports halls and gyms.
The unit is now available with a Touchless Foot Switch as shown in the photo. It can be 2-way or 3-way depending on the machine specification and can be installed to totally override the touch panel controls or work alongside them. In due course the foot switch can be removed altogether. Anti-microbial Silver-Ion Touch-panel Shields are also available for the control panel.
The unit is also now controllable via an app. Using Bluetooth® technology, the app allows users to dispense water hands-free. This makes it ideal for use in high footfall locations such as offices and factories.
And if you already have a B3.2 or B4.2 models, either free-standing or counter-top (240v and 110v), it can be easily app-enabled by an engineer or qualified technician.
