Product code: ESC-RURAL
A stone-like concrete drinking fountain with a stainless steel spout and push button.
Rural takes its cue from the stone troughs of old country springs: just as children playing by a stream discover that a hollow in a stone is the simplest way to collect water, the basin of this fountain recalls a stone worn away by flowing water. A single piece combines every concrete finish – a textured body, a polished top and an etched basin. Water flows from a curved stainless steel spout activated by a push button.

Parks, natural areas, nature trails, gardens and squares, where the fountain is both a practical and a visual feature.
Plan the water supply and drainage chambers before the paving is laid – adding them later is more difficult.
An outdoor drinking fountain lets people drink water without a plastic bottle – visitors can refill their own bottles. This is especially appreciated on hot days, when water is available without going into a shop or café, and the public space becomes more convenient.
Wherever people spend more time: in parks and squares, town squares, near sports grounds and stadiums, schools, children's playgrounds, running and cycle paths, and on beaches.
A drinking fountain needs a mains water supply and a drainage connection, so it is worth agreeing its location while the site is still being planned. Check the connection requirements for a specific model with our consultants.
During the cold season the water must be turned off so that the system does not freeze. It is worth planning for this in advance when designing the water supply connection.
Both drinking fountains are designed for public outdoor use. Beata suits parks, squares, town squares and school grounds, while Escape suits active leisure areas: sports grounds, running and cycle paths, and beaches. Check materials and colours with our consultants.
