Water fountains

The freestanding drinking fountains from Ateliers Ehrismann SA are designed to provide barrier-free access to drinking water in public outdoor areas. They are manufactured in the company’s own workshop in Geneva and are suitable for use in parks, squares, promenades and other publicly accessible open spaces.

The design is engineered for long-term operation under varying weather conditions. All water-carrying and external components are made of stainless steel. This prevents contamination caused by corrosion whilst ensuring high resistance to environmental factors and vandalism.

To ensure high standards of hygiene, each drinking water fountain is fitted with an automatic flushing system. This flushes the pipework at set intervals, thereby reducing the build-up of stagnant water. The fountains do not require an external power supply and are therefore particularly suitable for locations without electrical infrastructure.

Optionally, the drinking water fountain can be fitted with an integrated animal drinking trough.

Our water fountains are already in use throughout Geneva

For many years, Ateliers Ehrismann has been supplying freestanding water fountains to numerous municipalities in the canton of Geneva. The fountains are used in public outdoor areas, where they ensure a reliable supply of drinking water. Depending on the location, some models are also fitted with an integrated animal drinking trough.

Range of services for water fountains

We offer a comprehensive range of services for drinking water wells. In addition to regular servicing and maintenance, we can also, on request, carry out the seasonal assembly and dismantling of the wells. This helps to prevent frost damage during the winter months.

On request, we can store the wells professionally in our workshop until the next season. Once in storage, they are prepared for reuse and reassembled at the start of the season.

FAQ`s

Frequently asked questions

Our water fountains can be used outdoors in unprotected areas all year round. This is subject to the drinking water supply being shut off via a shut-off valve when the fountain is not in use. Before putting the fountain into operation, we recommend flushing the fountain system thoroughly to remove any deposits or impurities.
The drinking fountains are manufactured exclusively from high-quality stainless steel components. This ensures a high standard of hygiene as well as excellent resistance to corrosion and vandalism.
By default, the automatic flushing cycle is activated every four hours and lasts for approximately two minutes. The intervals and flushing times can be customised to suit specific requirements as needed.
