Where Does the Water Come From in a Portable Sink?
Portable sinks are incredibly useful and versatile pieces of equipment that can be used in a variety of different settings. Whether you’re setting up a temporary handwashing station at an outdoor event, or you need to provide running water for a construction site, portable sinks are the perfect solution. But one question that often comes up is: where does the water come from in a portable sink? In this blog post, we’ll take a look at the different ways that water can be supplied to portable sinks, so you can make an informed decision when it comes to choosing the right one for your needs.
Water Supply Options
When it comes to supplying water to a portable sink, there are two main options: either use an existing water source or use an on-board tank. Portable sinks are designed to be - portable! This means that they have a fresh water and waste water tank built into the cabinet. Let’s take a look at each option in more detail.
Using an On-Board Tank
The most common way to supply water to your portable sink is by using the built-in water tanks. These tanks are typically filled with fresh water and can be easily transported with the sink unit itself. This makes them ideal for situations where there isn’t any other source of running water available, such as outdoor events or construction sites. The downside of this option is that it requires you to fill the tank before using it and keep an eye on the water level inside the tanks. Ancaster Food Equipment’s KEEP SAFE portable sinks with hot water have the largest water tanks available on the market today. This means less time spent refilling/emptying water tanks and fewer interruptions to your work by checking water levels. It also means that your portable sink always has hot water ready to use!
Using an Existing Water Source
An alternative way to supply water to a portable sink is by using an existing water source. This could be anything from a garden hose connected to your home’s plumbing system, or even just using buckets of fresh water if you don’t have access to any other sources. This is the easiest way of operating your portable sink as you don’t need to monitor fresh water levels. However, it does require that you have access to an existing water source, which may not always be possible depending on your location and circumstances. KEEP SAFE portable sinks with hot water comes with a connector hose for use with a garden hose hookup. This method bypasses the pump and fresh water tank temporarily.
Benefits of Portable Sinks
No matter which method you choose for supplying your portable sink with water, there are many benefits associated with using one over traditional sinks or handwashing stations. For starters, they are incredibly easy to set up and transport – all you need is access to either an existing water source or on-board tank – making them ideal for temporary locations such as outdoor events or construction sites where traditional sinks may not be available. Additionally, they are much more hygienic than traditional handwashing stations as they feature built-in soap dispensers and paper towel holders which help reduce cross contamination between users. Finally, they can save time and money compared with traditional sinks as they require less maintenance and cleaning due their self-contained design.
Conclusion
As you can see, there are several options when it comes to supplying your portable sink with running hot water – either use an existing source or opt for an on-board tank – each with their own advantages and disadvantages depending on your particular needs and circumstances. Ultimately though, no matter which method you choose for supplying your portable sink with running water; they offer numerous benefits over traditional handwashing stations such as ease of setup and transportability making them ideal for temporary locations where traditional sinks may not be available.
