History & Development

Municipal systems cannot reliably provide safe drinking water, forcing customers to treat their water to ensure its safety, most often by boiling. As cities and slums grow at increasing rates, the situation worsens. Every day, lack of access to safe drinking water and sanitation kills thousands, leaving others with reduced quality of life.
