Elkay Commercial VRCTLFR8SC Ada Water Cooler 8.0 Gph

Product Description

The ELKAY COMMERCIAL VRCTLFR8SC is a wall-mount, vandal-resistant ADA-compliant drinking water cooler designed for high-traffic public and commercial installations. Built with a stainless steel exterior, it delivers a chilling capacity of 8.0 gallons per hour across a bi-level configuration, serving two stations simultaneously. A frost-resistant design extends usability across varying climates, including outdoor environments. The hermetically sealed refrigeration system provides consistent cooling performance. Tamper-resistant fasteners and a chrome-plated integral hood guard protect against vandalism and contamination. This unit is installed by licensed plumbers in facilities where durability, accessibility, and code compliance are required.

The VRCTLFR8SC is suited for schools, parks, recreational facilities, and other public or commercial spaces where ADA-compliant hydration access is required. Its bi-level configuration accommodates users of varying heights, including wheelchair users. The mechanical front bubbler button activates water flow without electrical service, making the unit functional during power interruptions. The frost-resistant construction supports extended outdoor use in climates subject to low temperatures, broadening its range of appropriate installation sites beyond strictly indoor applications.
