About Follett Sparkling Water
Follett's 7 and 15 Series Sparkling Water and Ice dispensers produce Follett's consumer-preferred Chewblet
nugget ice as well as chilled and sparkling water . Follett's premium sparkling drinking water is characterized by
small, dense bubbles . Follett does not produce the large "popping" bubbles found in sugary soda drinks . A good
comparison for Follett's sparkling water would be Perrier or Pellegrino . It is important to note this distinction .
Customers who are seeking the big-bubbles found in club soda or soft drinks may be disappointed . However, taste
tests conducted by Follett at a variety of test sites have verified a high level of approval for Follett's sparkling water .
Two factors play a large part in producing quality sparkling water . First, the water being injected with food grade
CO
must be controlled between 46 F – 51 F . Second, the incoming water must have the proper range of mineral
2
content . Too many minerals can lead to premature scaling of the ice maker and the need for excess product
maintenance . Too few minerals can result in flavorless sparkling water which can go flat quickly . To ensure the
highest quality sparkling water, the water supply (after filtration) must have a hardness between 80 ppm and
400 ppm TDS . Test your water first and filter as necessary to achieve the appropriate hardness . Filtration should
also remove any chlorine tastes from the water, another enemy of good sparkling water taste .
An appropriate source of CO
