Prepare for impending disasters says inter-governmental panel

The Nobel Prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has issued a dire warning to the world after a meeting of climatologists in Kampala, Uganda. Get ready for extreme weather as a result of global warming.

Heat waves, floods, droughts, and storms will intensify with the warming of the planet and most countries, and people, in the world aren’t prepared.

The CDC, FEMA, and other government agencies have been conducting  media campaigns to recommend that every American household has an emergency disaster plan and supplies. Every family should have emergency essentials packed in case they have to leave home fast in an emergency situation. Things to consider are food supplies, water, warmth, health, and safety.

Are you prepared for extreme weather and natural disasters? Are your neighbors? Friends? Family?

Some may scoff, but let them. They won’t scoff when they find themselves in an emergency, whether they prepared for one or not.

Read more in Are You Ready?

More about the panel’s announcement here.

And please check out Highwater Filters for all your water treatment needs.

Thanks for reading!

Recycled Wastewater: Will People Accept It as Drinking Water?

I read an interesting article in the National Geographic Daily News about a push to make recycled wastewater, or reclaimed water, more appealing to people on municipal water systems. This could partially help to meet some of our current and future potable water needs in the U.S and worldwide. It could conceivably meet 6% of U.S. municipal water needs.

Treated wastewater is already being used in some countries, like Singapore, and some say that their model could be used to incentivize the use of reclaimed water. It looks to be a difficult sell to the American public, but it seems like it may be viable method to use water more efficiently. Much treated wastewater is currently being discharged into our oceans.

A big concern is that reclaimed water may contain contaminants that are not currently tested by the E.P.A. (see my previous post, Our Tap Water at Risk: E.P.A. not doing adequate job of protecting drinking water.). How will the public feel confident that the treated wastewater is actually safe?

Better regulation is needed for all our drinking water to ensure that our water is safe. If this method of recycling is to be used, people should demand that better testing is conducted before this water is used in our drinking supply.

And why isn’t the E.P.A. testing for radiation in our water?

To be safe, a point of use home water filter is a great way to feel confident that you are doing the best you can to remove harmful contaminants from your drinking supply.

Check out our large variety of home water filters at Highwater Filter’s webstore.

Anniversary Special: Katadyn Pocket Water Filter Super Sale at Highwater Filters

The one and only

On Sale Now!

 

 

 

Sorry, the sale is over. Check back on March 11 when we will be having a very special sale in commemoration of the anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami in Fukushima.

 

Highwater Filters is celebrating our very first year of sales on Friday, February 24. We want to invite you to join us in commemorating this milestone by offering you the lowest price on the web for the Katadyn Pocket.

$250!

I’ve checked around. The lowest I can find is on ebay for $264.99 (with free shipping) so I am going to set this very special anniversary sale price at $250!

One year and counting...

 

This sale ends Friday so don’t delay!

We so appreciate all the folks who helped us make our first year a big success. It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since our first sale. The memories are vivid as we launched the site that day a year ago and then watched as…. nothing happened. At least not right away. And then the horrible earthquake and tsunami in Japan struck and turned our world upside down.

On March 11, I woke in the middle of the night and could not sleep. I then did something I don’t normally do in the wee hours. I went online. And it was in the early morning of March 11 (or probably March 12) that I learned of the tragedy in Japan. I didn’t realize how catastrophic it was at the time. I didn’t realize how it would impact my business. But when people around the world witnessed the devastating aftermath of the tsunami, we collectively realized our vulnerabilities.

And access to clean drinking water is a priority for people in a disaster.

As the events in the wake of Fukushima unfolded were realized, orders for the Katadyn Pocket soared. The manufacturers in Switzerland could not keep up on orders. Their North American headquarters in Minnesota were backed up with thousands of orders. And I happened to be well stocked with the Pocket.

I’ve continued to keep our inventory well stocked as I watched Katadyn increase their prices over and over again. The manufacturer’s retail price was $269 when I first started my business. They list for $369. today. That is a hefty increase and I’ve begun to notice other resellers dropping the Pocket from their product offerings. I may end up doing the same after my stash is depleted.

Look for another sale on the first anniversary of the Japan earthquake. That will be a more somber day, but let us not forget the victims of the terrible tragedy a year ago. So many lives lost and so much damage to the people of Japan. My heart goes out to them.

Thanks for stopping by!

To purchase the Katadyn Pocket for the low, low price of $250 please visit our Highwater Filters store.

Take the Leap in 2012 ~ Get a Water Filter ~ Protect your Drinking Water

Take the leap

It’s Leap Year and we all know that doesn’t come around too often. So why not celebrate with the most practical purchase you may ever make? It doesn’t really take a leap of faith to understand that your water is vulnerable. Whether your source is a well or a municipal water system, your water could be at risk from a multitude of sources. At Highwater Filters, we have the solution for you.

A point-of-use water filter is an inexpensive, convenient way to filter your water. There are a variety of choices to match your needs, including counter top and under counter models. There are filters for every need and just about every contaminant. At Highwater Filters, we strive to find the best products that are tested, effective, and reliable. We look for companies that have integrity and reputation. We listen to what consumers are saying. We ask hard questions. We want to provide the best products for our customers.

You don’t need to worry about what comes out of your tap. You don’t need to lug heavy containers with purified water from the store. You don’t need to buy water in plastic bottles that have no guarantee of purity and that could leach harmful chemicals into your water. You don’t need to take up space on your counter with bulky gravity-drip containers. An attractive filter at the tap or under the counter is really all you need. With a cost of just pennies for each gallon, it makes good sense.

Most of our products are produced right here in the U.S.A. There is a good reason for this. I am personally committed to supporting American industry and resolute in doing my part in helping the local economy.

Several years ago, I lost my job when the economy weakened. My job was outsourced as my company tried to cut costs to compete on the worldwide market. It was a humbling experience, but it only served to motivate me to help make the change I envision for our country. A vision that includes vibrant small businesses competing in the marketplace. A vision that includes pure drinking water for everyone.

Just over a year ago, I took a leap of faith as I ventured into the life of a small business entrepreneur. It’s been an educational and eye-opening experience. I can’t believe how far this business has come already. I look forward to the future.

Part of our success so far is our competitive nature and our commitment to customer service. Just yesterday I had a customer email and tell me that if I need a reference, he would be happy to provide one. It’s just one more example of how we strive to make every customer 100% satisfied with our products and service. We guarantee it.

Please check out our great deals on water filters, purifers, distillers, and more. And check back for new products coming soon, including a complete line of Rainshow’r products for removing chemicals from your bathwater. I am so excited to add these products to my inventory. Look for a celebratory intro sale soon!

Thanks for stopping by!

Remember Fukushima ~ 10% of purchases to Japan victims.

Let us never forget the tragedy following the earthquake and tsunami in Japan a year ago.  On March 11, 2011, life changed irreversibly for many people living in proximity to the nuclear power plant at Fukushima.

From now until Monday, I will donate 10% of all purchases to the victims of Fukushima. Proceeds will be donated to Architecture for Humanity, who have been working courageously to provide housing to those who lost everything a year ago.

Visit our Highwater Filters web store to get the best prices on Katadyn, Sawyer, TRAP radiation filters, LifeSaver portable distiller kits, PurestOne, and more.

Announcing the New Sawyer SP181: Made for Preppers

I just found out that the Sawyer SP181 Emergency Water Filter Bucket Kit has been improved and now includes the adaptable Squeeze bottle for lightweight carrying. So you can use this with a bucket or pack it into the bush. It also includes a faucet adaptor, so you can use it with your tap water, too.

I spoke with Sawyer today and found that the SP181 was originally designed for disaster relief but so many survivalists have embraced this product that they’ve upgraded for those on the go.

I’m so excited about this new development that I’ve priced the Sawyer All-in-One filters at a rock bottom introductory price of $42.99. That’s considerable less than you will find in stores at $69.99 or on the web where they are selling for $59.99 at most outlets. I can only offer this price for a day or two, or until my current supplies last. I just put in a big order for more. I think this product is going to sell fast.

Don’t miss out on this great price at Highwater Filters!

Thanks for stopping by!

Introductory Blow Out Sale: Rainshow’r Dechlorinating Shower and Bath Filters

Rainshow'r Dechlorinating Shower, Bath and Garden Filters

I’ve had a few customers ask me about shower filters so I did some research and found a U.S. company that has great filters at reasonable prices. I am excited to add Rainshow’r products to my growing inventory of American made water treatment. I’m so impressed with the construction of these filters. The reviews I’ve read are glowing so I’m pretty sure you will be happy with one of these products if you live anywhere that chlorinates the water.

Chlorine is a toxin but is an effective chemical for treating water and many of our municipal water supplies are treated this way. But it dries out the skin and damages the hair. Here’s a great solution. They are easy to install in most showers. They come in an assortment of models with interchangeable shower heads, if you need one. They even make a Chrystal Ball, if you prefer baths. 

Rainshow’r also sells an assortment of garden filters and I will be listing these soon. It’s time to start planning our gardens, if you haven’t already. Winter is still hanging on out here in Washington, but Spring is definitely in the air.

I’ve got all Rainshow’r products marked way down as an Introductory Offer. Some of the items have limited inventory, but I’ll order more soon based on interest. Order today so you don’t miss out on this great offer. It won’t last long!

Thanks for stopping by!

Major Credit Card Breach Does Not Affect Highwater Filters

In case you’ve heard about the major breach of credit card processor Global Payments, please be assured that if you are a Highwater Filters customer, your credit card information was not processed through Global Payments.

I just called my merchant services representative and was assured that they do not have any affiliation with Global Payments.

It’s always a good idea to watch your credit card statements vigilantly and report any strange activity. Thieves are getting more and more sophisticated. This latest cyber-crime is suspected of originating in the Dominican Republic with possible Central American links. It can sometimes be impossible to catch crooks involved with organized crime in foreign countries. It’s a growing problem.

At Highwater Filters, we have taken extra steps to guarantee a risk-free transaction. Our website is scanned by TrustWave every month. We are working on meeting all the necessary requirements to become PCI compliant and look forward to better security measures from the credit card processing industry to avoid any other breaches like the one we are seeing unfold.

This article from CNN Money  states that business accounts are the most vulnerable. Any merchant that you purchased from whose data was breached is now obligated to contact you to tell you as soon as possible. But do check your statements!

Thanks for reading!
