A simple solution for safer classrooms starts with AERstream’s innovation

Schools are safe spaces for learning and growth, but for many children, the water they drink during the school day means the opposite. A recent audit of Sacramento County revealed alarmingly high lead levels in children, exposing the persistent issue of lead contamination in drinking water. This problem isn't unique to Sacramento—it's a national crisis, with outdated lead pipes and plumbing systems jeopardizing the safety of water in schools across the country.

Lead Contamination in America’s Classrooms:

Lead exposure can have devastating health effects, especially for children. According to KCRA, exposure can delay brain development, lower IQ, and cause behavioral and learning problems. While federal programs like the EPA's 3Ts for Reducing Lead in Drinking Water exist, many schools need more resources or funding to overhaul aging infrastructure.

Unfortunately, replacing lead pipes and outdated plumbing systems in schools can be costly and time-consuming. Students and staff continue to be at risk, as many districts have to balance tight budgets and pressing health concerns.
