WaterPure International
Agrees to Place Atmospheric Water Generators at International
Hotel Chain; Test Units Are Part of Green Initiative Targeting
Lodging Industry
Monday April 7, 12:38 PM EDT
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Apr 07, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- WaterPure
International, Inc. (WPUR) announces an agreement to place
two Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs) test units at a major
international hotel chain. The two AWGs are part of a WaterPure
environmental green initiative program targeting the lodging
industry. The Company is offering AWGs for evaluation at various
hotels and expects to strategically position units throughout
the lodging industry. AWGs from WaterPure produce three to
five gallons of absolutely pure chilled or heated healthy
drinking water each day using a condensation process that
extracts moisture from the atmosphere. Similar in appearance
to a traditional bottled water stand, the AWGs contradict
the perception that jugs and cases of bottled water must be
purchased, delivered and stored in order for guests to have
pure safe fresh delicious drinking water. Use of AWGs throughout
the lodging industry could help satisfy the popular green
issues of guests.
"We hope to capitalize on this major hotel placement
by helping them join the other elites in their industry enjoying
greener times. By reducing the cost and clutter of plastic
jugs and bottles, a new attitude toward water could be imminent
in the lodging industry. Look for us to announce other relationships
as our targeted green initiatives take hold," notes Paul
Lipschutz, Chairman of the Board, WaterPure International,
Inc.
About Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs)
Depending on local electricity costs, a gallon of WaterPure
fresh and delicious drinking water in its purest form costs
about 8 cents to produce. The AWG extracts moisture from the
atmosphere through a condensation process and transforms it
into absolutely pure, healthy drinking water. Multiple air
and water filtration systems remove particulate matter smaller
than .01 microns. Utilizing high intensity UV (ultra violet),
it eliminates any microorganisms including bacteria and viruses.
Test results of WaterPure water measured 99.9% purity, far
exceeding EPA requirements. Operating on standard 110v power
in the USA, it is extremely efficient and uses a minimal amount
of energy to produce water. The unit requires no plumbing,
water lines, or pipes and is easily installed. Driven by a
microcomputer control system, it will stop generating water
when full. The WaterPure purification system employs special
filters to remove any unpleasant tastes or odor that may be
present in the air.
