They’re an about 2’ X 3’ X 5’ tall cabinet, with a front filling chamber that accepts 1, 2.5 & 5 gallon containers. They dispense water treated via a reverse osmosis filtering system, to clean all the chemicals & guck out of the city tap water that feeds it.
Interesting. Haven’t really heard of that. The city water is comes from wells is what I’ve been told. I know they have to treat it. Usually no chlorine smell, like some places have.
Some of the people have a slight smell of sulphur, but most don’t. I am not sure what causes that. I think it might be their own plumbing, but not sure. Those people buy the gallon jugs of water from the grocery or the big blue jugs from Walmart that have a dispenser tab. Looks to me like they are more than 5 gallon, but can’t remember for sure.
I don’t pay much attention, because we have well water from our own well. I used to have a reverse osmosis system when my Dad was here to use for his coffee and water, as his health was very delicate, but that was abundance of caution. We’ve been drinking it for 40 years. Haven’t tested it recently, but it tested good years back.
