Oasis Coolers | Filter Ready Bottle Fillers and Drinking Fountains| OASIS

Factory-prepped filtration for flexible specification and future upgrades.

Every Essence In-Wall Bottle Filler and select non-filtered OASIS bottle filling stations and drinking fountains are built with future filtration in mind. Each unit ships with the filter head and waterway pre-installed at the factory, allowing non-filtered models to operate with a bypass plug today and upgrade to certified OASIS filtration later—without additional kits, re-plumbing, or wall rework.

What Is Filter Ready?

Filter Ready means the unit is already prepared for filtration before it ever arrives on site. Select non-filtered OASIS drinking fountains and bottle filling stations include the filter head and internal plumbing required for future filtration, with a bypass plug installed for proper operation until a filter cartridge is added. When filtration is needed, simply remove the bypass plug and install a compatible OASIS indoor filter cartridge—no added retrofit kit, no re-plumbing, and no wall rework.

Specify with Flexibility

Project requirements change. Filter Ready gives architects, engineers, and facility teams the flexibility to specify a non-filtered model now while preserving the option to add filtration later.

Protect the Finished Wall

Because the system is factory-prepped, filtration upgrades can be completed without opening the wall or compromising the finished architectural appearance.

Reduce Future Costs

Filter Ready helps eliminate the need for added kits, plumbing changes, or unnecessary rework when filtration becomes a requirement.

Support Evolving Water Standards

As owner expectations, water quality concerns, and building standards continue to evolve, Filter Ready helps facilities stay prepared.

Future-Ready Filtration. Built Into Every Unit.

With OASIS filtration flexibility is not an afterthought—it is part of the platform. Filter Ready gives every project a cleaner path to upgrade, helping specifiers simplify planning today while giving facility teams more control tomorrow.

Built for Long-Term Ownership

OASIS bottle filling stations are designed for more than a clean installation—it is designed for clean, efficient service over time. With top-access filtration through Tilt ’N Tether, facility teams can access the filter from the top of the bottle filler for fast, clean replacement without disrupting surrounding wall finishes.
