Vital Living Products Unveils First in a Series of New Products- Consumers With Private Well Water Cautioned-

Vital Living Products, Inc. d//b//a//American Water Service Inc. (PRWEB) March 9, 2001 -violet water disinfection system geared for homeowners that are concerned about bacteria in their water, especially those with well water.

The new system called PurGuard® UV, is an ultra-violet disinfection system that systematically kills bacteria such as Ecoli, Coliform and viruses. The unit comes complete and is easily installed at point of entry. As water enters the home, PurGuard®UV emits light rays, rendering the molecular structure of the DNA microbe harmless.

In the 1990s, a study coordinated by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) revealed that 41% of all private wells surveyed had Coliform bacteria. There are over 16 million private wells in the United States today, and the chances that well water may be contaminated have increased since then.

The PurGuard® UV is specifically designed to be consumer friendly." Said Don Podrebarac, CEO of Vital Living Products. The PurGuard® UV is easy to install, keeps water 99.9% bacteria free and unlike other forms of disinfection, does not require constant monitoring. Consumers simply change the UV bulb once per year. PurGuard®UV is a reliable system that will not affect the taste, smell or color because it is completely chemical free."

The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) recommends that owners of private wells test their water for contaminants twice per year. Anyone with an immune deficiency is encouraged to test their water quarterly.

As part of the current product launch, displays will be set up in all of the leading home improvement warehouses nationwide. Vital Living Products plans to launch additional products over the next several months.
