Why are classic water fountains a design flaw?
The classic water fountains, which we know from movies but also often see in our schools and offices, are a good example of a design flaw. They are uncomfortable, and are often simply not used due to a lack of hygiene. Fortunately, there are now much better alternatives on the market.
The Problems with Classic Water Fountains
Classic water fountains, which are often found in public spaces, schools and offices, are definitely a design flaw for three reasons
- Awkward design: Most classic water fountains are awkward to use: they often require unnecessary bending and splashing easily. Moreover, they are not suitable for filling your reusable water bottle.
- Hygiene: The tap of a classic water fountain is often touched, with the hands or even the mouth. Sometimes people even use the fountain to wash their hands. In addition, such fountains are often poorly maintained, which only makes the hygiene problem worse.
- Underutilization: Due to the above hygiene problem, classic water fountains often remain unused. They are often ignored in schools and public places, simply because people consider them to be non-hygienic and therefore prefer to look for drinking water elsewhere.
The Solution: Wall Modules
With the Robi wall modules, we help solve these problems.
- Smart Design: Wall Modules are designed with ease of use in mind. They offer simple self-explaining controls, making filling a bottle a breeze.
- Hygienic: Wall modules are designed in such a way that it is almost impossible to touch the outlet. Drinking directly on tap is also not possible. Wall Modules are always equipped with a filter that ensures that the user always drinks fresh filtered water.
- Easy to integrate: a Wall Module can be attached to any wall, takes up very little space and has a finished look. There is also a “built in” version, which can be integrated into the wall.
- Chilled and sparkling water: the basic version of the Wall Module only provides chilled filtered water. But optionally, it is also possible to let chilled and sparkling water come out of the Wall module
- Proven effect: In places where classic water fountains are being replaced by Wall Modules, we see that people immediately start drinking more water. This was evident from various measurements and surveys that we did at schools and companies. For example, look at this testimonial.
With the Wall Modules, Robi offers a product that is very versatile in use. Clearly a better alternative to the outdated water fountains.
