How Do Portable Sinks Work?

Using a portable sink in the workplace is an excellent way to prioritize health and safety without the hassle of a complete renovation to add permanent sink assemblies. Not all portable sinks work the same way, but going with a trusted manufacturer for your commercial space is the best way to get the features you’re looking for. Learn how self-contained portable sinks work — and how to find premium options to keep employees, customers, patients and students safe without plumbing connections.

Setting up and Operating Portable Sinks

The right portable sink assemblies will be user-friendly. Your sink should also offer access to hot and cold water. Once you’ve chosen a portable sink, you can set it up in a few steps:
  1. Take your portable sink out of the box.
  2. Remove additional packaging.
  3. Use swivel casters to position your sink in an appropriate location.
  4. Fill the tank with clean water.
  5. Plug your portable sink in and let electricity heat the water.

Tanks for Clean Water and Wastewater

You might be wondering how self-contained portable sinks work if you’ve never used one before. There are two tanks below the assembly. One is a clean tank that provides you with hot water on demand. The second tank is designed to capture wastewater that goes down the drain. Portable sinks function like standard indoor sinks. The main difference is that you can position them anywhere indoors — or even outdoors, depending on the model you select. Your portable sink should come with an integrated soap dispenser. Pull the water handles toward you, pump soap into your hands and push the handles forward to turn the water off with each use.

The Benefits of Ozark River’s Portable Sinks

Cutting-edge portable sinks give you an unmatched level of convenience. Some of the unique advantages of Ozark River’s self-contained portable sinks include:
  • Outstanding mobility: Our portable sinks feature 5-inch swivel casters. Push the sink assembly exactly where you want, then utilize front-wheel locking functions to keep it in place.
  • Simple setup and cleaning: Open the bottom doors on your portable sink to access clean and wastewater tanks. Clean the tanks on your assembly and reattach them in seconds. No plumbing is necessary.
  • Durable countertops: We offer portable sinks with durable, aesthetically pleasing countertops made of laminate.
  • Water temperature controls: Use Ozark River’s portable sinks for safe hand-washing with hot water.
  • User-friendly soap dispensers: Your portable sink comes with a refillable pump dispenser. Forget clunky bottles of hand soap that get wet and fall from the countertop.
  • Various cabinet colors: Choose a self-contained portable sink with storage space. Ozark River offers cabinets in black, white and maple. You’ll also find stainless steel options.
