Pureez Coolers Refresh Your Tap

In a Water Bottle Editorial, the Star Tribune let's us know that conservationism can never, ever catch on, because...well, they don't actually give any arguments as to why this is the case. But, having assumed it, they do give us some food for thought. For example:


Much of bottled water's offensiveness rests in its plastic containers, a characteristic shared by the many more containers of soft drinks sold.
I think it's clear why environmentalists and your average beverage consuming American see a difference between the water industry and the soft drink industry. For one thing, soda doesn't come out of our faucets. Bottled water irks me and many others because it is so readily available at home, with a water system we all paid for, and yet we still waste tons of gas and other natural resources shipping it around in little plastic containers. Besides that, any other beverage can be bought in little aluminum cans. This eliminates much of any argument as to the similarity between the two because, for whatever reason, water can't be purchased in a more sensible way. Aluminum is at least easy to reuse, unlike plastic, which is heavier and harder to recycle.

Still, from the same editorial, we also get an appeal I can definitely get behind:

Bottled-water foes should take a lesson from the Toyota Prius. It wasn't exhortations from environmentalists that made hybrid vehicles a success. It was $3-a-gallon gas. Similarly, the harms of bottled water are best solved by moving economic levers to address what is, essentially, a market problem.
That conserving money and conserving the environment don't have to be at odds is what Pureez at home tap water filters and dispensers are all about. Pureez costs way less than buying individual water bottles, and it even costs less than traditional water coolers that require bulky and wasteful bottles. Because Pureez at home water coolers require no monthly replacements, the costs of owning a water cooler don't add up over time. You can purchase a Pureez in one easy payment or over time, but once you have one, the water is free! Not only that, but Pureez bottleless tap water coolers go one step further by providing you with two water services neither tap or water can claim to provide: it gives you purer water, and it gives you style. Watch out, tap water systems!

Edit: Ok, I think everything is back in order. Back next week with more water cooler updates!

New Year, New Home: 10 Possibilities

10: Change the color of some of your rooms. This is a relatively cheap way to really add some character to your house. Not to mention that when you change something like color, it heightens your awareness of a room. This effect will wear off, but at least for a few months it will energize your whole family to, say, spend more time in the family room. Some hints: for the most part, keep your rooms in the same color scheme. For example, at my place the living, family, and dining rooms are all in natural tones. This signifies a more unified portion of the house. The computer room is in a watery tone, which sets it off.

9: Add style. A few haut pieces (even one pricy sculpture) will really drive home an aesthetic point of view. If you like minimalism, get a minimalist sculpture and it will tie together the sparse arrangement of a room. Or tie in with whatever great furniture you already have. Same with tapestries or murals. Plus, if you buy something pricy, it's an investment in your future. Stylish fine art is selling for more and more these days!

8: Really get a new House! The real estate market can't get any better than it is right now for new home buyers. And moving on up means your have an even bigger canvas on which to express your own personal at-home style. New kitchen, new kitchen appliances!

7: Make your house a home by changing the 'attitude' of your home. Make it a point to have dinner with the whole family at least several times per week. Watch a movie together.

6-1: Buy a red, white, silver, blue, green, or yellow Pureez home water cooler. After all, you need a new cooler (in a new color!) to match your new home! And these water coolers have style and color. Pureez also provides water cooler rentals, so it easy to purchase a Pureez water heating and cooling system. Plus, Pureez tap water filters are actually bottleless coolers (meaning they are small and don't need refills), so they are safe and easy to use for everyone in the family.

Pureez Home Water Coolers : Transform Your Home


This was one of the first few images to come up when I searched for "Christmas Water." And what an image! This holiday season Pureez hopes that you will think about how to improve your life through water. Drinking more water, drinking healthier water, consuming water without wasting plastic and other resources.

On New Year's, people historically commit to improving their well-being. People consider this to be a time of change and renewal. What better sign of that commitment to change than to change how you consume the most basic of resources: water. Why not make water central to your home and hearth? Rather than buying water cheaply contained in plastic like candy, you could be using a home filtering dispenser to cleanse and transform your tap water! Certainly your home is a fantastic place to start, and Pureez is the most convenient at home water cooler on the market. Cheers!

Pureez Office Water Cooler

Council pulls plug on office water coolers


"Although coolers have become a traditional place for office workers to exchange the latest gossip, a London council has deemed them - and bottled water - environmentally unfriendly and is insisting that staff switch to the tap variety instead.

Islington council believes it will save more than £8,000 a year on bottled water and thousands more on coolers after it agreed to stop paying for them.

The council, which says the move will reduce its carbon footprint, is now calling on the Greater London Authority and other London boroughs to follow suit."

Proof positive that bottled water is on its way out. It'll only be a matter of time before cities in the U.S. that want to reduce their carbon footprint (san fran, portland) go for similar regulations. And even if they don't, plenty of environmentally conscious companies will see removing their bottled water coolers as a way of showing their personal commitment to the green movement and eco-friendliness.

The article goes on to talk about how this might be the end of water cooler culture. That doesn't have to be the case; you can have a water cooler that conserves energy and is still pretty enough to gather around, and the pureez is just the bottleless water cooler for the job! Pureez makes a perfect office water cooler because it looks good anywhere and can give you steaming hot water anytime!

Pureez Home Water Coolers

In another installment of "what makes Pureez unique," I want to talk about how Pureez is particularly well-suited to the home and personal use. As I touched upon earlier, Pureez coolers look good, and they're what new environmentalists want in their homes.

That Pureez dispensers look good in a home setting, and can fit in with any decor is certainly part of the appeal of our bottleless countertop tap water dispensers. Another big part of the appeal of pureez heating and cooling filtration systems is that they are compact (that's why they are countertop coolers, they can fit on any countertop). That means they won't cramp your style, and will accomodate your water drinking habits. Pureez tap water filters can easily be moved to different parts of the house (if, say, it would be more convenient to dispense water in the kids bathroom); wherever tap water mains are! Pureez dispensers are the perfect home water coolers !
