What is an antimicrobial spray down, and where can it be used?
An antimicrobial spray down is a fine mist treatment applied to surfaces and common touch points, leaving a long-lasting protective shield against bacteria, viruses, fungi (mould) and yeasts. The liquid is water based, alcohol free and non-toxic, with a 99.99% continuous kill rate, and it is applied by highly trained staff to leave a touch-safe area for everyone. It suits a wide range of public-facing and workplace settings, including:
- Offices and showrooms
- Medical practices, therapy centres and clinics
- Care homes and residential homes
- Hotels, guest houses and hospitality venues
- Schools, colleges and universities
- Retail shops
- Vehicles such as taxis, buses and boats
Will servicing disrupt my workplace?
We aim to cause as little disruption as possible. Where timing is tight, we offer an out of hours service, or a temporary machine exchange while the works are carried out, subject to availability.
How do you keep water coolers clean and hygiene-compliant?
We keep your equipment hygienic through regular servicing and sanitisation, carried out by WRAS-qualified engineers using market-leading filters such as Brita and 3M. If you own your equipment you can book single sanitisation visits or an annual package, and we supply documentation on completion that you can use as evidence for any on-site hygiene-compliance inspection.
Can you help in a water emergency, even if I am not already a customer?
Yes, our rapid 24 hour response service is available to existing customers and to any business or home that cannot get a delivery from their current supplier. We have stepped in during burst water mains, contaminated mains water and periods of extreme weather, so please contact the team straight away if you are affected and we will do everything we can to help.
How do deliveries and refills work?
We offer same or next day deliveries, and you can set up regular refills to be called off weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Because of our location we can be flexible with our distribution, which keeps your supply reliable. You can place or schedule an order in whichever way is easiest for you:
- Phone
- Web
- SMS
- Social media
Can I hire water coolers for an event or short-term project?
Yes, we offer short term hire for events and projects of almost any length, from a single day to a weekend, a month or a full year. Our dedicated team can advise, recommend, provide, manage and arrange collection to suit your requirements. Short term hire suits a wide range of situations, including:
- Construction sites
- Caterers
- Party organisers and wedding planners
- Production companies
- Motor racing teams
- Sporting events
What will your water coolers and equipment cost?
Our water coolers, boilers, filtered taps and coffee machines are priced on enquiry, because the right option depends on your space, your usage and your plumbing. Consumables such as cups, filters, cleaning products and bottled water have listed prices in our OWS Shop, and for equipment we will recommend the most cost effective option and provide a quote.
Will I be left without water while my machine is repaired?
No, if a repair has to be carried out off site, we can provide a free loan machine* so you are not left without water. Most repairs are completed on site during the visit, and the loan machine is there for the occasions when equipment needs to come back to us.
*subject to stock availability
How does your call out and repair service work?
Our call out service is straightforward: you call, we aim to attend site within 24 working hours, and most repairs are completed on site. Our engineers maintain water coolers, coffee machines and water boilers, and we draw on manufacturer support for any specialist repairs.
