Introduction
The document discusses the importance of providing public access to clean drinking water, especially in light of rising temperatures and environmental challenges. The German Federal Ministry for the Environment aims to increase public access points for drinking water to mitigate dehydration risks and support sustainability goals.

Legislation and Goals
A draft law passed in August mandates the installation of drinking water fountains in public places as part of the public water supply. This initiative supports the EU's 17 sustainability goals and aims to reduce CO2 emissions by decreasing bottled water production and transport.

The BEULCO Solution
BEULCO offers a drinking water fountain that complies with DVGW W 274 standards, ensuring safe water extraction. The fountain is designed with materials suitable for drinking water, providing protection against vandalism, mechanical, chemical, and weather-related influences.

Design and Features
The fountain includes a service flap for easy maintenance, a top shield for protection, and is manually operated for water dispensing. It is accessible to all, with clear labeling and Braille for visually impaired users.

Hygiene and Maintenance
Hygiene is enhanced with contact protection around the outlet tap and the ability to flush the fountain to prevent stagnant water issues. Insulated pipes prevent contamination from temperature increases.

• Compliance with DVGW W 274 requirements
