Even though the Lead and Copper Rule was enacted in 1991, the average age of a US public school is 44 years, which means that many public schools still have lead water pipes in their system. The Pure Spout On-Fountain unit is a filtration system that keeps schoolchildren safe by removing lead contamination from drinking water at aging public schools. For schools, Pure Spout is an affordable option. It does not require an invasive or lengthy alteration to the infrastructure. For maintenance personnel, it is ergonomic, tamper proof, and easy to install and replace the filter.
