Water Bottle Filling Station

Hi all, my library is looking to get one of those water bottle filling stations that are also equipped with a drinking fountain. (thanks to our friends group who agreed to pay for it) I have found one that I am going to purchase but I'm wondering how the heck to install it. Does anyone have any tips or advice? Are they easily installed? Do I need to hire someone? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated! Abbie LaFountaine JC Wheeler Library PO Box 226 1576 S.

We have one that we ordered through our plumbing company & they installed it. It was replacing a traditional very old water fountain.

Susan, We had our water fountain/bottle fill station installed by a plumber. There were modifications that needed to be made because the water connections did not align. There were a couple of other issues that the plumber had to address. I say go with a plumber and get it professionally installed. Until the old machine comes off the wall you do not know what problems you could find.
