Apollo NZ GlobalBuild project brief

CIVARO Hydration · public drinking fountains

Public drinking fountains selected around users, site services and long-term maintenance.

A project pathway for councils, schools, parks, recreation facilities, campuses and public buildings choosing freestanding, accessible and multi-function drinking-water points.

Public-space application context for CIVARO HydrationApplication context

Recommended pathways

Start with the function, then confirm the configuration.

These CIVARO platforms are the strongest starting points for this application. Final material, services, accessibility and destination requirements remain project-specific.

Planning priorities

Questions to resolve before the station is frozen.

Hydration looks simple until water, waste, users, maintenance, accessibility and exposure meet the actual site.

01

User mix

Adults, children, wheelchair users, athletes and pet owners can create different height, reach and function requirements.

02

Water + waste

Confirm potable-water connection, pressure, waste route, drainage and isolation access before fixing the station.

03

Public durability

Activation hardware, cleaning access, vandal resistance and replaceable components matter in high-use sites.

04

Exposure

Material grade, finish and maintenance should reflect inland, coastal, salt, high-wind or wash-down exposure.

05

Accessibility

Accessible configuration must be checked against the project jurisdiction rather than assumed from a generic product label.

06

Lifecycle

Filter changes, cleaning, winterisation where relevant, spare parts and service access should be planned before handover.

Selection sequence

Use one disciplined project pathway.

01Define users + demand
02Confirm water, waste + power
03Select function + accessibility
04Review exposure + material
05Confirm evidence + drawings
06Quote + project supply

Common questions

Useful answers before procurement.

What is the difference between a public drinking fountain and a bottle-filling station?

A drinking fountain serves direct drinking at the station; a bottle-filling station is designed around refill use. Combined CIVARO pathways can provide both functions in one unit.

Can CIVARO drinking fountains be used outdoors?

Selected CIVARO platforms are intended for outdoor public-space use. Final material, corrosion, plumbing, drainage and fixing requirements are confirmed for the selected site.

Can an accessible fountain be included?

Yes. CIVARO includes an accessible platform, but final dimensional and compliance review remains specific to the destination jurisdiction and installation.

Wholesale & project supply

Turn this application into a product-ready hydration brief.

Capture the station type, quantity, users, filtration, cooling, accessibility, services, exposure and project stage before Apollo prepares the supply pathway.

Market pathways

Move between regions without losing the project context.

Choose the regional hub first, then the country where a dedicated pathway exists. Product suitability, documentation, freight and local project responsibilities are still confirmed against the actual site.
