Direct Chill Technology is an effective method of chilling water very rapidly. The advantage that direct chill technology has over other systems is that the water is never static; it continuously flows throughout the system, which prohibits bacterial proliferation and ensures that the water remains constantly chilled.
The direct chill system works by conduction: the water passes through a stainless-steel coil that is in contact with a copper evaporator coil that contains refrigerant gas – the cold emitted by the refrigerant gas is transferred into the coil through which the water is flowing but does not touch the water, which in turn becomes icily chilled.
Living-Water, London’s premier water company, offers two water coolers with Direct Chill Technology – the Fountain water cooler and the Pure Water Cooler:
