   Careguard®
Marie-Helene Pernin
 
  Every time a faucet is turned off a few drops of water are trapped inside the aerator (or laminar device) where they stagnate, warm up and eventually evaporate, leaving a film of scale, source of food for biofilm. While insignificant in a residential or commercial environment, such areas where bacteria could possibly thrive and multiply due to biofilm are a concern in healthcare facilities (hospitals, senior care, medical labs).

Careguard® is the perfect answer with its combination of unique hygienic features: laminar stream (no room air that could contain bacteria is drawn in), screenless construction (no wire-mesh screen prone to lime build-up) and built-in AgION silver anti-microbial product protection.

Careguard® also conserves water (1.5 gpm max) and is available in chrome plated housings in regular male and female thread size as well as in tamper-proof housings.

Silver is not toxic to humans and animals. Studies have shown the AgION compound to be less toxic than table salt. For more information on EPA registration, FDA, USDA listings, NSF certifications and AgION please visit www.agion-tech.com
