The Avalon 3 Temperature Self Cleaning Bottle-less Water Cooler with Child Safety Lock is made with an innovative stainless steel cabinet. It offers a choice of 3 water temperatures. The easy-to-use push button spouts make it so much more convenient to use. Simply press the temperature button of choice and allow the water to flow from the spout. The machines highly efficient compressor makes the cold water crisp and ice cold at approximately 47° F without the need of adding ice cubes to your drink. The hot faucet is hot enough to cook one's tea or coffee or any other steaming hot beverage at approximately 185° F. Due to the extremely hot water, we’ve added a child safety lock on the hot water faucet. There is a built-in nightlight making the water spout clearly visible in the dark. This water cooler is bottle-less with an NSF certified activated carbon filter (listed as model Avalon A4FILTER) and a sediment filter (listed as model Avalon A5FILTER) in the cabinet and a water line that can be attached to your water source. The water is taken from your water source and filtered through the filters and then through the machines hot and cold water tanks. The filter will purify the tap water eliminating any chlorine, lead, rust. There is also a built-in leak detector to automatically monitor the water flow from the water source into the machine. We have incorporated a self-clean function which will automatically clean the machine’s water tank. The water cooler is UL listed.

The dispensing area is 12x3x10.25 inches with 10 inches of space below the spouts. The unit dimensions are 41x12x13 inches.
