Overview

Flowmore, in collaboration with MWI-USA, has launched a revolutionary product, "Solar Pedalflo". "MWI, Moving Water Industries, was established by the Eller Family in Deerfield Beach, Florida in 1926.” Solar Pedalflo is a simple way of creating safe and hygienic drinking water in large quantities and thousands of such systems are providing safe & clear drinking water across Africa.

"Solar Pedalflo" is a complete solar powered 24x7 pressurized water delivery system capable of delivering 10000 LPD of drinking water. It can be installed at water levels up to 45 meters. Below ground level, this is a closed container system which eliminates water contamination. A zero wastage & highly economical (approx.. 4.5 paise per litre) system providing safe & clear drinking water for rural communities, green field projects and institutions thereby leading to healthy communities, healthy children and the eradication of water borne diseases.

The specially designed modules of the system can withstand extreme weather conditions which enhances usage & life. Easy to install, require minimal maintenance and can be easily handled at village level. No dependence on Power Grid, in case of overcast weather or at night, manual operation feature is available, no loss of minerals – much needed for human body, pressurized water that can be stored or directly distributed.

United Nations

United Nations voted unanimously in Sept 2015 to "Ensure availability & sustainable management of water and sanitation for all". United Nations declaration sets goal for "Universal & equitable access to safe & affordable drinking water to all by 2030".

Conclusion:- The conclusion to be drawn is that the use of Flowmore's Solar Pedalflo will help to ensure that the Government of India meets its obligations under United Nations Sustainable Development Goal Number 6 to provide "universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water" for every citizen of India by 2030.

"We at Flowmore pledge ourselves to the endeavor…..each and every Indian will have access to safe drinking water."
