As a native British English speaker I had never heard of a "bubbler".
As others have said, I would have called that a drinking_fountian.
I really don't understand why some people object to that term, but then
I haven't followed this thread closely. But some pictures of alleged
"drinking fountains" elsewhere in the world, don't seem to conform to
the British terminology.
