The station fits in most small cars with the back seat down. It comes in a large canvas bag with wheels. There is also a strap to help with carrying it up steps.
All regular outside garden taps are suitable to use with the station
A 2-piece tap attachment is included in the bag which covers 2 different tap sizes. The tap attachment is suitable for the station hoses but not standard garden hoses.
Most stations are for filling water bottles
There are larger stations in the region that have bottle filling and fountain options.
One station is not normally enough for large events
You can link multiple stations together, or you may want to hire more commercial services such as Bulk Water - which cater for large events.
