CHARLESTON, S.C. -- June 23, 2022 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire --
BOX Pure Air ("BPA") subsidiary of SinglePoint Inc. (OTC:SING) is pleased to announce Highland Park
Independent School District selecting BOX Pure Air to support
efforts to improve indoor air quality (IAQ) throughout the school
district. The implementation includes AIRBOX™ units (48 Mesa units,
72 Peak units, 29 Apex 2.0 units) and the filters needed for the
next year. BOX Pure Air supplies tried and true, portable,
Certified HEPA filtration units.
Highland Park Independent School District has 886 students
enrolled across three schools on the campus. This deployment
entails the placement of air purification units in each of these
schools, along with enough filters to last until the following
year. Highland Park is purchasing 149 AIRBOX™ units to provide
healthier indoor air for its students and staff. Opting for a full
implementation, the elementary, middle, and high schools that make
up Highland Park's campus will have units in various spaces, from
classrooms to administrative offices and gymnasiums.
Ryan Cowell, CEO BOX Pure Air, said, "We are excited to work
with Highland Park in their effort to improve IAQ on their campus.
By selecting BOX Pure Air, we believe Highland School shows its
commitment to implementing an effective indoor air quality
improvement solution across the entire school's campus. We have had
multiple orders in Texas, and we believe this will open the
doors to many additional orders throughout the state. This full
implementation demonstrates the validity and credibility of BOX
Pure Air."
Cowell added, "We have made significant progress through
multiple markets and our teams focused, diligent effort is
resulting in significant sales. We expect to see most of our
efforts reflect in Q3 and into Q4 of 2022 as schools prepare for
students and teachers to return this upcoming 2022 - 2023 school
year. Highland Park made the best decision a school can make
related to improving indoor air quality throughout their campus,
fully implementing portable air purification units where needed not
just within classrooms, administration offices but all common areas
including large spaces specifically gymnasiums, cafeteria's and
libraries, which will utilize the industry leading APEX 2.0."
This purchase order to improve indoor air quality throughout the
schools was made possible through funding provided by the ESSER III
Grant. The grant was distributed to public school districts
in Texas to improve overall health and safety. These
funds were authorized in the American Rescue Plan (ARP), and are
available to schools until the end of September 2024. Highland
Park has taken full advantage of this opportunity and wisely
invested its grant money into a clean indoor air quality solution
that will last for years to come.
Two people instrumental in commencing this implementation
include Ray Cogburn and Jimmy Hannon. Mr. Cogburn is
the former executive director of Region 16 schools in Texas,
which includes Amarillo, and Mr. Hannon is the superintendent
of Highland Park Independent School District. Through their
assistance, BOX Pure Air was able to develop a full-school Safe Air
Plan.
There are many solutions being explored to help improve indoor
air quality. BOX Pure Air continues to be on the forefront of
exploring these new technologies. Through research and following
industry studies the company has remained steadfast to date that
Certified HEPA filtration is currently the best solution to improve
indoor air quality along with improved ventilation where possible.
Many parties are exploring ionization technology as an alternative
option as ionization is advertised to destroy harmful particles. In
doing so, it also releases ozone and hydrogen peroxide into the
air, which can be dangerous as OSHA has set daily limit thresholds
of exposure to both chemicals. Current research suggests Ionization
has little to no impact on removing respiratory aerosols from the
breathing zone, which should be the primary focus for creating
healthy air.
Mr. Cogburn commented, "Many schools I've talked with are
looking into ionization as a potential air solution. I understand
the appeal from a cost perspective, but I always advise them to
take the route of Certified HEPA air purification. It's proven to
work, safer than ionization. Any administrator I talk with that is
hesitant about investing in HEPA, I encourage them to look at the
BOX Pure Air solution because it does check all the boxes."
BOX Pure Air anticipates the delivery and installation of the
149 units to begin immediately to ensure everything is in place
when students return in August. Highland Park's decision to invest
in air purification across the entire campus shows its commitment
to the health and wellbeing of its students and staff and should be
commended. They will undoubtedly be the most prepared school in
their region to deal with issues such as airborne viruses,
allergies, wildfire smoke, and more.
With Federal funding readily available, BOX Pure Air is excited
to continue working with school districts in the state
of Texas and elsewhere to provide high-quality, Certified
HEPA air purification solutions. With roughly two months until the
2022-23 school year, BPA expects to see more districts following
the lead of Highland Park and taking steps to improve their indoor
air quality. Both the CDC and White House have stressed indoor
ventilation as a potent weapon in the battle to contain COVID.
Congress has approved billions in funding for public and private
schools that can be used to improve indoor air quality
including $13
billion for schools in the 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief,
and Economic Security Act; an additional $54
billion approved in December 2020 for schools'
use; and $122 billion for schools from the 2021 American
Rescue Plan ("ARP"). Funds from the ARP are available for
schools to use until the end of September 2024.
