-- The water crisis in Flint, Mich., gained significant publicity in 2015, and since that time officials at many schools across the country have tried to take a close look at the quality of water coming from their drinking fountains and faucets.
But according to a recent article in The Washington Post, strapped budgets, the lack of laws requiring testing in schools and the preponderance of lead pipes in aging buildings has left many children, teachers and administration members at risk.
“It’s a shame that the crisis in Flint and elsewhere has not resulted in much closer scrutiny of the water being consumed in schools, especially by children,” said Allen Baler, Partner at 4Patriots LLC, a Nashville, Tenn.-based company that provides a variety of products that help people become more self-reliant and independent.
“There is some testing going on, but not enough. And parents are understandably upset about the lack of focus on this issue, not to mention the lack of transparency from some school officials who take far too much time to communicate this potential health hazard to parents of vulnerable children. It’s time for people to take matters into their own hands and make sure they and their families are drinking safe water.”
One way to combat contaminated water is with the Alexapure Pro tabletop water purifier, which is capable of transforming contaminated water from virtually any source into clean, safe, delicious water.
An advanced engineered, two-stage filter removes up to 99.99 percent of contaminants, including heavy metals such as lead, as well as arsenic, pharmaceuticals – even E. coli and polio. Drinking contaminated water, regardless of the source, can cause serious illness and even death.
“A recent Associated Press poll showed that fewer than 50 percent of the U.S. population are confident in their tap water, and it’s likely that percentage will drop even farther as word continues to get out about other cities confronting the problem of lead and other contaminants in their water,” Baler said.
With a 2.3 gallon-per-hour flow rate, the Alexapure Pro purifies water about three times faster than many of its competitors. Users will be able to access up to 5,000 gallons of fresh, clean water from it before the filter needs to be replaced. Priced at $197, that comes out to approximately 4 cents per gallon. Bottled water, usually originating from unknown sources, costs considerably more.
No gas, electricity or water pressure is needed to operate the Alexapure Pro. It removes contaminants such as those found in Flint’s water using only gravity, producing the most essential item to have now and during an emergency: clean, crystal-clear water.
In addition to complimentary shipping, those who purchase the Alexapure Pro water filtration system also receive a credit card-sized steel survival tool featuring 11 different functions, as well as a hardcopy book, “The Water Survival Guide.”
They are also able to acquire the Alexapure Go Bottle (priced at $47), which features the same advanced engineering of the Alexapure Pro and which can filter 300 gallons of water, can be stored in a backpack or bug-out bag, and is ideal for camping, hiking, biking or any other outdoor activities.
Also available from Water4Patriots is the Survival Spring ($24.95), a nine-inch long, two-ounce straw made of BPA-free, food-grade materials that can filter up to 300 gallons of water and can easily be carried anywhere.
Water4Patriots provides products that help people eliminate contaminants from their drinking water, including the Alexapure Pro tabletop water purifier, the Alexapure Pro Go Bottle and the Survival Spring straw. Each product purifies contaminated water from virtually any source into clean, safe, delicious water.
