Today's water drinking fountain is the result of over 100 years of development. The first water fountains available to the public were developed in the early 1900s by Halsey Willard Taylor and Luther Haws. They were motivated to provide a safe and sanitary drink of water to the public in large part because of the death of Halsey W. Taylor's father from contaminated water. As the water fountain became more common in the lives of the people there was a demand for chilled water. This led first to ice-cooled water fountains and then ammonia refrigerated water fountains. Later in the 1950s, wall-mounted water fountains were developed for use in public schools, hospitals and other buildings with high traffic. In the 1960s the industry recognized that physically challenged people had difficulty obtaining a drink of water from water fountains. Therefore, laws and designs changed to make water fountains accessible to all people. Additional developments were made to offer a drink of water as contamination-free as possible. Efforts were made to eliminate all lead and other metal contaminates from the water.

All of our concrete water fountains meet the federal regulations established by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). They meet state and federalhandicapped requirements when installed in accordance with the clearances defined by the ADA. In addition our concrete water fountains are considered "lead free" as determined by all known definitions including ANSI/NSF Standard 61, Section 9, California Proposition 65 and the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act. Our concrete water fountains are accessible for the handicap. There is plenty of knee clearance for people in wheelchairs and an easy front push button. There are a number of available options such as concrete or chrome bowls, side faucet, freeze proof valve and tamper resistant concrete bubbler guard. In addition these fountains include a drain tail piece and bubbler valve for plumbing connections. The design of the access panel makes installation easier for the buyer.

Our concrete water fountains are not only weatherproof, vandalism resistant and handicap accessible, but they are also available in several designs including pedestal mount, barrier-free pedestal and wall mount. Our color choices will allow a complimentary match with any décor. And all of our water fountains are manufactured with lead-free materials and components.
