Frequently asked questions
Common questions about HAWS from 3G Electric.
What materials are used in HAWS drinking fountain housings?
HAWS drinking fountains and bottle fillers supplied by 3G Electric feature stainless steel housings with a satin finish. This material is selected for its corrosion resistance, durability, and ease of cleaning, making it suitable for high-traffic public and industrial environments. The stainless steel construction supports long service life and maintains appearance with minimal maintenance.
What chilling capacities are available for HAWS refrigerated units?
Refrigerated HAWS models in the 3G Electric catalog offer a chilling capacity of 8 gallons per hour at 50°F. This specification is typical for moderate-use settings such as office buildings, schools, and light industrial facilities. Non-refrigerated models are also available for applications where chilled water is not required, such as outdoor or temporary installations.
How are HAWS bottle fillers activated?
HAWS bottle filling stations supplied by 3G Electric use touchless sensor activation. This hands-free operation reduces contact points and supports hygiene protocols. The sensor triggers water flow when a bottle is placed in the filling area, and flow stops automatically when the bottle is removed. Some models also include a push bar or push button for the drinking fountain component.
What mounting options are available for HAWS drinking fountains?
HAWS drinking fountains and bottle fillers from 3G Electric are available in on-wall and in-wall configurations. On-wall models mount directly to the wall surface, simplifying installation in retrofit projects. In-wall models are recessed into the wall cavity, providing a flush appearance that can save space and reduce protrusion into corridors or rooms.
Are HAWS drinking fountains suitable for outdoor use?
HAWS drinking fountains and bottle fillers supplied by 3G Electric are primarily designed for indoor installation. The stainless steel construction offers some weather resistance, but units are not typically rated for continuous exposure to rain, freezing temperatures, or direct sunlight. For outdoor applications, consult the specific model's installation guidelines and consider additional protection such as shade or enclosures.
