Product Spotlight
Zurn Elkay Water Solutions, the industry’s largest supplier of cleaner water solutions for drinking water, hygiene and sustainable water management, launched an extension to the ezH2O® Bottle Filling Station line to introduce Smart Bottle Filling Stations.
Since their release, Elkay’s ezH2O bottle filling stations have been providing cleaner, healthier water to communities across the globe. One bottle filling station can save on average 15,000 bottles and 327 pounds of plastic from the landfill each year. In total, ezH2O bottle filling stations have prevented over 67 billion plastic bottles from ending up in landfills.
Now, the ezH2O units have been made smarter. The new connected units offer fresh, filtered water while letting facility managers track stats across every unit. The units are ideal for large offices, airports, colleges and public facilities. Zurn Elkay’s plumbSMART™ software integrates with a variety of smart plumbing products.
Campuses and large complexes can reduce their total cost of ownership by tracking bottles saved, filter status and water usage, and schedule flushing events to help keep lines cleaner. With the ability to monitor filter status across all units it’s easier to plan and anticipate filter replacements. Select enhanced units also feature the quick filter-change wrapper for easy access to the filter for quicker changes. The FillSafe™ recognition will automatically update the LED light back to green when a new filter is installed.
Retrofit options are available for any enhanced bottle filling station manufactured after April 2019. The retrofit kit allows for these units to be connected to a gateway that provides the connected features.
Zurn Elkay is committed to providing greater access to cleaner, healthier drinking water through quality products. When used together, these ezH2O upgrades enhance the installation and maintenance process, making it easier, cost effective, and more convenient.

The new Webstone lead-free, dezincification-resistant (DZR) strainers are available with new G-thread bodies that are compatible with a host of fittings and accessories for a custom installation, providing users with flexibility.
Options include a forged DZR brass Y-strainer and the patented Pro-Pal® Ball Drain Strainer™; an integrated ball valve, capped hose drain, and Y-strainer that isolates, drains, and strains any portion of a piped system. Also available are Y-strainers with sweat connections.
“This line expansion is a direct response to our customers’ feedback,” said Lisa Lyon, Webstone general manager. “After introducing the original set of strainers, the case for additional models in the sweat connection was made by our partners in the field. At the same time, customers also enjoy the flexibility of our G-Series products, which expand the size range, connection types, and application options of products featuring straight-thread bodies. We saw this as our opportunity to offer customizable solutions for strainer applications. We’re proud of our commitment to continuously enhance the Webstone product line to meet the needs of our customers.”
