The AA First Arctic Chill 98CL is a high-capacity, mains-fed direct chill water cooler with contactless dispensing, giving ambient and chilled water on demand. With 30 to 40 litres of chilled water an hour and a 23cm dispensing height, it is built for busy workplaces.

Infrared sensors allow hands-free dispensing, with manual buttons kept as a backup, which helps cut shared touch points. It can be fitted with the KLARAN UVC LED purification system, which uses UV-C LED technology at the point of dispense to reduce bacterial contamination. AA First states the system targets 99% or more of common waterborne bacteria such as E. coli, Legionella and Pseudomonas, making it well suited to the NHS and healthcare work we support. A FloodGuard inlet solenoid guards against large-scale leaks.
