Elkay DRKR10C Countertop 10" Fountain, Non-Filtered, Non-Refrigerated, Stainless Steel

Why We Recommend the Elkay DRKR10C

The Elkay DRKR10C is a compact countertop drinking fountain that can be integrated into a surface selected for the project. We often recommend this model when a conventional wall-mounted cooler does not fit the room design or when drinking water access is needed at a counter, cabinet, or custom station. Its corrosion-resistant stainless steel basin and chrome-plated push-button bubbler provide straightforward operation with a small footprint.

Best Applications

The DRKR10C is well suited for break rooms, workshops, classrooms, clinics, offices, recreation areas, service counters, and custom indoor or outdoor installations. Its approximately 10-inch basin is particularly useful where available counter space is limited and a basic drinking fountain is preferred over a larger refrigerated water cooler.

Quick Tip

Coordinate the countertop opening, basin support, water line, drain location, and underside service access before the counter is fabricated. The selected surface should tolerate routine water exposure, especially in outdoor or high-use installations. Confirming these details early can prevent costly countertop modifications after fabrication.

Common Question

Does the Elkay DRKR10C filter or chill the water?
No. The DRKR10C is a non-filtered, non-refrigerated countertop fountain that dispenses water at the building's incoming supply temperature. Projects requiring filtered or consistently chilled water should plan for compatible external equipment or select a fountain that includes those functions.
