This drawing outlines the spatial clearance requirements for wall-mounted drinking fountains for accessible routes. Knee and toe clearance dimensions dictate a minimum twenty-seven inch height to the underside, a minimum nine inch toe clearance height, and maximum six inch toe depth with an eleven inch minimum knee depth. Forward approach clearances require a forty-eight inch minimum clear floor space width by thirty inches minimum depth. Spout heights are dimensioned from thirty to thirty-six inches maximum to the spout for wheelchair users, with an alternate thirty-eight to forty-three inch range permitted for standing persons. The clear floor space extends fifteen inches maximum past the spout with a five inch minimum offset.
