Students at both MacLean Elementary and Rossland Secondary School in Rossland, British Columbia will continue to drink from bottles-as they have been for the past few weeks-, as the plumbed in water cooler units that were recently installed in both institutes are continuing to distribute supplies of liquid that, when tested, are shown to contain levels of lead that are above acceptable limits. The puzzle at the moment, for school governors and education officials in the area, is where exactly the traces of lead are coming from. The City of Rossland’s water supply was tested, and came back clean, whilst the mainline has been ruled out as the culprit, otherwise other homes and businesses would be suffering from the same problem. In the mean time, the council’s maintenance department is picking up the bill for the bottled water that the students are consuming at a remarkably quick rate.
If you’re thinking about investing in a plumbed in water cooler, you can rest assured that The Water Cooler Company will do everything we can to ensure you get clean, refreshing water that is 100% safe for you to consume.
