Stainless steel is the most common material in a veterinary setting for many reasons. It’s robust, it doesn’t rust, and it copes very well with constant use. Stainless steel is also far less likely to trap bacteria compared to other surfaces. This makes day-to-day upkeep and cleaning much simpler, and more effective in a busy surgery.
WRAS approval simply means that a product meets UK regulations for usage with mains water. Basically, it confirms that the materials will not contaminate the supply or affect the quality of the water. For veterinary practices, it’s a good reassurance that the equipment is safe, compliant, and well-suited for regular use.
Most drinking fountains need access to two elements: A mains water connection and an appropriate waste outlet. Installation completely depends on the model, as some can be wall-mounted, and others are floor-standing. Check on the structural support available beforehand and make sure installation is handled by a professional to avoid plumbing issues later down the line.
It’s very quick and easy to keep a stainless steel drinking fountain clean. Using a soft cloth, warm water, and a mild detergent is the best way to stay on top of daily upkeep. Try to avoid anything too harsh or abrasive, as this can mark the surface. A more thorough clean every now and then will also help to stay on top of limescale and help to maintain its condition.
