PRO TIP: Elkay EMABF8WSLK Discontinued – Direct Replacement Alternatives
The Elkay ezH2O® EMABF8WSLK Wall-Mounted Bottle Filling Station & ADA Cooler Combo (8 GPH, Non-Filtered, Light Gray Granite) has been officially discontinued. What made the "EMAB" series unique was its mechanically-activated push-bar controls, allowing the lower drinking fountain to continue dispensing water manually during power outages. When retrofitting this unit, your primary consideration is deciding whether to stick with a direct electronic sensor push-button design or upgrade to an NSF-certified filtered model.
Recommended Replacement Alternatives:
• Elkay EZS8WSLK (Direct Equivalent Upgrade): This is the premier standard replacement within Elkay's ezH2O line. It features the exact same mounting footprint, light gray granite finish, 8 GPH chilling capacity, and sensor-activated bottle filler. The fountain operates via soft-touch electronic pushbars, making it an easy drop-in swap without needing plumbing or wall hanger modifications.
• Elkay LZS8WSLK (Filtered Upgrade): If you want to take advantage of your installation to improve water quality, the LZS8WSLK upgrades the setup to include Elkay’s WaterSentry® VII 1,500-gallon filter system (NSF 42 & 53 certified for lead, chlorine, and taste reduction) and an LED visual filter status monitor.
• Halsey Taylor HTHB-HVR8BL-NF (Halsey Taylor Alternative): For a cross-brand alternative within the same manufacturing family, this Halsey Taylor HydroBoost® model matches the same 8 GPH non-filtered capacity and wall hanger pattern, but adds heavy-duty, vandal-resistant stainless steel construction.
