get the supplies for the fountain and how much will it cost?
Thanks for a great question!
I searched home soda fountain and found some interesting links and information:
http://www.gameroomantiques.com/AtlantaShow.htm shows a wonderful anitque style soda fountain for your home. It is described as:
"ANTIQUE STYLED FREESTANDING SODA FOUNTAIN - FULLY FUNCTIONAL
Finally, there is a fully-functional antique styled soda fountain that can be placed in your home or office.
CAN PLACE ANYWHERE - It is a freestanding unit that can be used anywhere that has electricity. Plumbing is not necessary for this self-contained system.
EASY TO MAKE - You simply pour 2 ounces of any of your flavored syrups into a glass and add 10 ounces of carbonated water from the gooseneck dispenser to create a refreshing drink. Add ice cream or one of our additives (cherry, vanilla or chocolate) and you'll be reminded of the simpler days of yesteryear.
COMES WITH EVERYTHING YOU NEED -The Soda Fountain comes with a 3 gallon product tank that you fill with cold water, a five pound CO2 cylinder (which needs to be filled prior to use), a regulator and internal plumbing. The system automatically carbonates the water.
The freestanding model is equipped with refrigeration and only needs to be plugged into a standard 15 amp circuit.
DURABLE CONSTRUCTION - The base unit of the soda fountain is constructed from stainless steel with a cast aluminum gooseneck dispenser, custom tap handle, plastic condiment inserts with stainless covers, and a stainless and aluminum drip tray. The unit comes with 2 liters of soda syrup and information on how to order your favorite syrups and accessories direct from the factory via mail, phone, fax or e-mail.
SPECIFICATIONS:
Countertop Width 48", Depth 28", Height 59"
Base Unit Footprint: Width 28", Depth 24"
Electrical: 115 Volts, 1.5 AMPS
Weight: 281 pound
PRICE: Full freestand unit: $2300 plus $195 shipping. SPECIAL: $1995 plus $195 shipping.
Component module without freestanding bar and withoug refrigeration: $1295 plus $45 The component module allows you to provide your own refrigeration (necessary for optimum performance) to create a built-in custom application. See: Photo "
The Home Theater Marketplace lists supplies for Home Soda Fountains here:
http://www.marketware-tech.com/sodsyrsupone.html
"Mix and match syrups for 12 one liter bottles of soda
Available in 11 delicious flavors, our Soda Syrups and Additives are a fun way to please nearly every taste. These Soda Syrups and Additives are used in our Original 1911 Brand Soda Fountain Machine available HERE.
Soda Syrups must be purchased in full case lots (12 liters) and mixing and matching is allowed.
Cola Soda Syrup, Sarsaparilla Soda Syrup, Ginger Ale Soda Syrup, Cream Soda Syrup, Orange Creme Soda Syrup, Strawberry Creme Soda Syrup, Emerald Creek (Lime)Soda Syrup, Lemon-Lime Soda Syrup, Cherry Soda Additive, Vanilla Soda Additive, Chocolate Soda Additive"
Their 1911 Brand Soda Fountain appears to be identical to the one listed above and sells here for $1899, however at http://www.marketware-tech.com/comsyssodfou.html they also have a Component System for Do-It-Yourself or Custom Installations for only $899. This may be of interest to you.
The above 1911 Soda Fountain also appears at http://www.877popcorn.com/homesodashop.html for $1795! And, as a matter of fact, here for only $1520 - http://www.cookathomeappliances.com/paragon/para_10.html .This seems to be the most popular choice for Home Theater buffs and game room owners installing a soda fountain.
at http://www.geocities.com/timr21/ , there is an interesting article on "Build Your Own In-Home Soda Dispenser" The author notes:
"If you're a nut about fresh fountain drinks (like I am), and colas out of cans and bottles just don't do it for you anymore...then this is the place!
Say good-bye to high-priced fountain drinks from restaurants and convenience stores! You can have free-flowing soft drinks in your home for just pennies a day.
I'm not selling anything...I just want this page to be a place where people can get info on this subject. I spent over a year trying to figure out how to put a soda dispenser in my home, and only in the last few months have I been able to make all the parts come together.
What I intend for this page is to supply you with parts, equipment, and syrup distributors from all over the country to help you install your own soda fountain in your home -- for a lot less money than some companies would like you to spend."
I think you will find very good information here should you decide to build your own, and info on supplies and syrups if you buy ready made.
http://rtmcollectibles.safeshopper.com/55/cat55.htm?898 has an assortment of commercial quality air cooled bars for home and commercial use. They don;t appear to dispense drinks, but are very attractive bars / coolers and can probably be fitted with do it yourself dispensers as mentioned above. Their prices start about $6000.
The National Restaurant Association trade show pages list exhibitors of their shows and is searchable. Searching for fountain syrups and suppliers brought up a list of 8 at http://www2.restaurant.org/show/exhibitorlist/catdetail/3510.html
