Our new Wellness Program: Biggest Loser Style

Dear Chicken Philly Cheese steak, I’m sorry, but I can no longer see you. My company has started a new Wellness Program that is going to help all the employees here create healthy habits! The theme is Biggest Loser!! Filterpure Biggest Loser I fondly remember your melted cheese and sauteed onions warmly infused with delicious chicken on a mouth watering hoagie, but unfortunately you are extremely high in carbs and calories, and there is no place for you in the Biggest Loser competition or in our Wellness Program. You see, the purpose of this competition is to support our efforts to follow a healthy weight-loss diet and exercise program and to establish patterns that we will continue long after the contest has ended. It is not intended to promote rapid weight loss. We have weekly themes to help us on our journey of bettering our healthy decisions.

  • Week 1: Make your steps count!
  • Week 2: Chug-a-lug
  • Week 3: Say goodbye to McFlurries/Say hello to McApple
  • Week 4: Let’s be inspired
  • Week 5: Get moving with Michelle Obama
  • Week 6: What’s for Dinner?
  • Week 7: Exercise comes in all forms
  • Week 8: Name your favorite week

We have set up teams of two to compete in Filter Pure’s Biggest Loser competition!! The teams are: Fatty Fat Pants – Jessica Kiuber and Angela Woodard Fishstiks – Denise Fisher and her husband, John The Boheebs – Craig Mastny and his wife, Linda Love Handle Hopkins – Lara Shumate Hopkins and her husband, Shawn The Honeymooners – April Michel and her husband, Eric Rusty Finda Team –  …….Rusty The team that loses the most weight at the end of 8 weeks wins!! What do they win, you ask! Well, I’ll tell you! The winner gets over $200 in cash and…and!….well, the rest is a secret! We’ll find out what the grand prize is at the end of the eight weeks!! So, you see my tasty, little Chicken Philly Cheese steak, things are just not going to work out between us. At least not in the next eight weeks. But, stay tuned to our blog to see how the competition is going!!

SAVE MONEY FROM FILTERED WATER!

Think of all the things you currently want right now. Maybe it is a new t-shirt, a fancy dinner out, or even a mini vacation? What if we told you we know how you can obtain those things quicker than you think by saving significant money where you didn’t think possible? By switching from bottled water to home water filtration, you will notice a fast, easy and impactful transition into a more economic and environmentally sound way of life. Sounds good, right? Because it is!

Why Go To the “Trouble”, You Ask?

  • Home water filtration offers better quality water than bottled.
  • Home water filtration is 1/10th the cost of bottled.
  • Home water filtration is far more convenient, offering “Pure water on tap.”
  • Home water filtration is virtually pollution free.

According to waterfiltercomparisons.com, over 60,000,000 plastic bottles a day are disposed of in U.S. landfills from bottled water use! That is a lot of wasted plastic and resources. It takes three times the amount of water to produce the bottle as it does to fill it. Not to mention the pollution from transporting heavy loads of bottled water all over the World. Talk about an oxymoron! H2O, a vital and necessary component to keep us healthy is also polluting our environment and depleting our valuable resources – the madness! The reality is that people pay from $1 to $4 a gallon for the perception of higher quality, when in fact; the quality of bottled water is at best an unknown. We never truly see our water coming from the pristine aquifers it is said to originate. Instead we go off blind faith that it is the truth. Let’s start using our blind faith in a slightly different manner and trusting in Home water purification. Home water purification is by far the most economical, most convenient and most effective way of producing high quality, healthy water. By filtering out the chlorine, lead and other contaminants, home water filtration systems are the best way to know for sure about the quality of your drinking water. It’s also the most economical and the most environmentally responsible. It’s the right choice. Shop FilterPure today to begin your economic and environmental switch to being cleaner, healthier and richer! Our wide variety of premium water filters have made us leaders of the industry and have received national exposure. Whatever your filtration needs, you can trust FilterPure to deliver a sparkling clear solution!

Bromination Systems

What is Bromination? When compared to chlorination, Bromination is safer to use, provides equivalent disinfection more easily, and won’t corrode your plumbing system like chlorine does. The result of using Everpure Bromination is a material suited to the water treatment requirements of cruise vessels, navy ships, recreational boats, work boats and off-shore platforms. The ease and efficiency of using a Bromination system with replaceable cartridges is far more desirable than the time consuming and unpleasant task of preparing chlorine solutions from dry chlorine powder. What are the benefits of Bromination systems? Water safety and quality is vital to your ship’s operation and crew’s morale. Protecting your crew and passengers from water- and food-borne illnesses is only one major reason Everpure Bromination makes sense.

  • Great tasting water – Bromine is about four times less taste-intrusive than chlorine and is often undetectable at normal concentrations.
  • Safer to handle – Polybromide resin does not carry a fire hazard safety warning and can be safely stored and handled without fear of skin burns. It will not corrode your plumbing systems the way chlorine does.
  • Simple to operate – Just change the brominator cartridge according to your equipment or system schedule and you will have great tasting, healthy water for longer than if you were to use chlorine.
  • Safe, reliable water – Bromination protects more reliably than chlorine by disinfecting water over a wider pH range than chlorine.
  • Simplifying your water treatment – Bromination Systems save man-hours, reduce corrosion and plumbing damage and deliver a constant bromine-to-water ratio from automatic proportioning technology.

In short, the Everpure Bromination System is a complete system that will simplify the way you think about water treatment. Filter Pure offers many Everpure Bromination System options and complimentary products. Shop with us today at https://dev-filterpure.pantheonsite.io/Everpure-Marine.aspx and browse our wide variety of Bromination products!

Renovations are Complete!

No more tile floors, tight spaces, or conference meetings in the kitchen; the renovations are complete!!!! Here are some before and after photos showing our transformation! This used to be part of the warehouse that we have now turned into more work space for everyone.   This used to be the wall separating the office from the warehouse. Not anymore. We took down the wall, opening up our office more. We’ve also added more work stations. Remember that old tile?….. …..say “Hello!” to CARPET!!!! Check out our new conference room! From this…. ….to this! Oh, yeah!!!! And don’t forget about Denise’s new office! She is VERY happy! Check out the awesome new chairs that Rusty has in his office now! We even have new “Visitor Parking Only” signs!!

The recent renovations here at Filter Pure has brought everyone together as a family! The energy around this place is very positive as we all do our work with a new sense of pride in our company, knowing how far it has come.
Although, I’m still waiting to hear back on my proposal for my own personal office with the mini fridge and massaging chair. Fingers crossed!!

Hurricane Debbie Hits FPS!

The wind began to howl through the doors. The lights flickered! The windows began to rattle! Our desks and chairs started to shake! Cows were flying by the window! We all embraced each other in fear….in fear of HURRICANE DEBBIE!!!!
.
Ok, maybe it wasn’t that bad, but Filter Pure was effected by all the wind and rain that came with Miss Debbie. Here’s a picture of her actual size. (The picture above is Katrina)
Debbie doesn’t even look like a real hurricane, but boy did she bring alot of rain and wind!
.
She actually rip our Filter Pure sign right off it’s posts.
We even had a leak from the ceiling…right over Jessica’s desk.
Sure it’s not alot, but that’s because Jessica caught it in time. Just think if that started to leak after we all left for the day! Good save Jessica!
.
So we stood up well to Hurricane Debbie! And may this be a lesson to all future Hurricanes! Don’t mess with Filter Pure Systems!!!

Renovations for Jade!

With all these renovations going on, Jade began to think, “I wish I had some renovations to my area too!”
Jade tried to ask if she could have some renovations…but everyone was busy working.
Jade thought to herself, “The new carpet is nice and all, but I still wish I had my own renovations…”
Well, one day, while Jade was out on the warehouse dock sun bathing…we did a little canine renovating of our own!
Ta-dah!!!!!!!
That’s not just any dog bed…that’s an “Orthopedic Foam” bed!
When Jade came in she was SO HAPPY!!!
Jade is loving her new renovations and wants to thank everyone for loving her so much!!

We Honor Levi Mercer!

Today, we honor Levi Mercer, National Guard Soldier, for his accomplishments. At 17 years old, he joined the National Guard and was soon deployed to Kuwait where he proudly served his country. He now attends USF, studying in their engineering department, and works for Southland Construction (who is currently doing our renovations). Last night, Levi was honored at the Tampa Bay Storm game. Here’s a video of his recognition. Filter Pure has serviced the water filtration needs of the military for many years. We are proud supporters of our troops and thank Levi for all his hard work – in Kuwait, at home, and especially in our building. Thank you, Levi, for all you’ve done! Below are some pictures of Levi.
