Echo Launches Echo Pure Whole Home Water System for Families Seeking Cleaner, Safer Water
New system combines advanced filtration with water softening—removing contaminants like chlorine, PFAS, lead, and fluoride while improving taste and odor SALT LAKE CITY, May 08, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Echo, the category leader in hydrogen health products, is proud to announce the launch of the Echo Pure Whole Home Water Filter—a comprehensive, high-performance system designed to deliver purified water to every tap in the home. This powerful upgrade combines advanced filtration with water softening to remove the contaminants that matter most—chlorine, chloramine, PFAS, lead, and fluoride. In addition, it removes bacteria and viruses using innovative ultraviolet (UV) light technology—while also reducing scale buildup and improving water taste, clarity, and odor. Whether you're drinking, showering, or doing laundry, every drop is cleaner, gentler, and safer. "Our customers are looking for trusted ways to protect their family's health—and water quality is a huge part of that," said Josh Carr, CEO of Echo. "The Echo Pure reflects our ongoing commitment to combining high performance with thoughtful design. It's clean, softened water for every faucet, not just the kitchen." The Echo Pure utilizes a robust five-stage filtration process to significantly reduce contaminants commonly found in municipal water supplies. Engineered with 5 pounds each of reticulated KDF-55 and KDF-85, plus 40 pounds of catalytic carbon, the system removes chlorine, chloramines, heavy metals, fluoride, PFAS, and other impurities—delivering cleaner, better-tasting water for drinking, bathing, cooking, and more. Engineered for homes with 3/4" to 1" municipal water lines, the Echo Pure features a durable fiberglass tank. While traditional water filtration systems are designed to filter a set number of gallons, the Echo Pure features replaceable filters that significantly extend the system's lifespan, making it a long-term solution for the home. Its innovative reticulated foam technology eliminates channeling and ensures optimal contact time for effective filtration, while the water softening feature reduces scale buildup, improving appliance longevity and water feel. Designed for durability and efficiency, the system is constructed with high-performance carbon and a robust polyethylene outer wrap. It features FDA-approved materials, NSF 61 certified coconut shell carbon, and is California Prop 65 compliant, ensuring both safety and long-lasting performance. Backed by a 10-year warranty, the system is built for peace of mind and designed to last. The Echo Pure is a modular filtration system that starts at $3,499.00 and can be purchased at About Echo Echo is the category leader in hydrogen water and advanced purification products, committed to transforming health through science, performance, and design.

Londonderry: Funding cut is 'catastrophic' for dance company
Funding cut is 'catastrophic' for dance company 9 minutes ago Share Save Chloe Gibson BBC News NI Share Save BBC Echo Echo artistic director Steve Batts says the decision by the Arts Council to reject their £112,000 funding application is devastating for the company Organisers of a Londonderry dance company fear they will have no other option but to close after 100% of their funding was cut. Echo Echo Dance Theatre Company said their funding application for more than £112,000 was rejected by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland (ACNI). "If this decision stands, it will be terminal for the company," Echo Echo artistic director Steve Batts said. In a statement, ACNI said it is their policy not to provide details of the reasons for an applicant's rejection from any scheme to a third party, unless the rejected applicant granted permission for such disclosure. The spokesperson confirmed that Echo Echo's application to the 2025/26 Annual Funding Programme (AFP) was unsuccessful. They said that following this decision, the organisation was offered an award of more than £28,000 to assist with its transition out of the AFP portfolio. Organisers from Echo Echo said they met ACNI officials earlier this week, but were disappointed with the outcome of the meeting. The Derry dance company said the funding would have covered the wages of three staff members as well as some overheads. "This is a terrible decision with no basis in fact or reason," Mr Batts told BBC Radio Foyle's North West Today programme. "Full-time jobs will be lost, artists will lose employment opportunities, confirmed projects with funding in place are now at risk, and a bespoke arts centre will close. "We have read the detailed feedback provided on the Arts Council application, and we will contest this in the strongest possible manner. "We will not take this decision lying down and will do everything in our power to keep the doors of Echo Echo open for our amazing artists." Freelance dance artist Kelly Quigley says she is shocked by the decision Kelly Quigley is a freelance dance artist, but the majority of the dance classes she teaches are contracted through Echo Echo and take place in the studio on Magazine Street in the city. "I am in utter shock. I just cannot believe that a company of this magnitude and reach could have its funding cut so unceremoniously," she said. "It is really disheartening to see the work of local artists being placed in jeopardy. "We should be celebrating the fantastic talent in the city, not doing things that could potentially harm it. "I don't think people realise the ripple effect these cuts could have — particularly if this building has to be sacrificed. She said it would "impact people not just here in Derry, but in Belfast, across Ireland, and even in Europe". Majella Berrnad attends the dance classes and says they have been her "salvation" Majella Bernard said that, for her, the dance classes she attends are incredibly important for her mental health. "Taking part in Echo Echo classes for the past 12 years has been my salvation and has opened a door to the creative arts in my life that was never there before," she said. "The sense of community and family here makes it one of Derry's most welcoming and inclusive places. "I'm devastated that we will be losing a large chunk of our funding — it is a brutal blow," she said. "Cutting a vital lifeline for an arts group in the current financial climate makes no sense," she added. Request a formal funding review

Echo Echo: Derry dance company shocked by 100% funding cut
A dance company based in Londonderry has said a decision to axe 100% of its funding has come as a "great shock".In a social media post Echo Echo Dance Theatre Company said it has had a funding application of more than £112,000 turned down by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland (ACNI).Without that funding, Echo Echo said it faces an "immediate existential threat".The ACNI said investment in dance in "the Derry city and the north west region remains a priority". The Derry dance company said the funding would have covered three staff members' wages as well as some overheads."We are currently assessing the impact that this cut will have on the future of Echo Echo Dance Theatre Company and our home studios," the company added: "This decision comes as a great shock to all involved in the company."This is an immediate existential threat to the company but we expect to continue all of our current programmes and keep Echo Echo Studios open and staffed for at least the next three months as we consider all of our options."A meeting with the ACNI will take place next week, the company added. The ACNI described the dance theatre company as an Arts Council client and multi-grant recipient who had "accessed funding from many of our programmes, including the Annual Funding Programme (AFP)"."Unfortunately, with disappointment this year Echo Echo did not receive 25-26 AFP funding," the ACNI added: "The Arts Council hopes to announce details of this year's 2025-26 AFP clients once our annual funding allocation is known."
