2 The Ultimate Security System for Your Drains WHY IT S NEEDED: CDC, WHO & ICT, FACTS In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated roughly 1.7 million hospitalassociated infections (HAI s), from all types of microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi combined, cause or contribute to 99,000 deaths each year. *These infections add anywhere from $4.5 $5.7 billion per year to patient care costs.* THE PROBLEM: Every year there are more than 1 billion cases and over 1 million deaths globally from vector borne Zoonotic Diseases such as the Zika Virus, Malaria, Dengue, Lyme disease, Plague, West Nile Virus, Schistosomiasis, Human African Trypanosomiasis, Leishmaniosis, Chagas Disease, Yellow Fever, Japanese Encephalitis and Onchocerciasis. Filariasis may also reach man simply by being carried by flies or cockroaches via drainage. Thus, unlined open drains might become particularly dangerous transmission sites. It is at such sites that excreta disposal and human water contacts might occur in a concentrated and uncontrolled form. VECTOR BORNE DISEASES are illnesses caused by pathogens and parasites in human populations. Pathogen infected vectors represent an immediate threat, but even uninfected arthropods that escape can establish populations that subsequently transmit pathogens. Plumbing systems, along with open and exposed drains are potential sources for contamination that provide a hospitable habitat for waterborne pathogens, especially for Legionella. Legionella poses the most consistent threat in the healthcare setting. *KEY FACTS* Vector borne diseases account for more than 17% of all infectious diseases, causing more than 1 million deaths annually. More than 2.5 billion people in over 100 countries are at risk of contracting dengue alone. Malaria causes more than 600,000 deaths every year globally, most of them children under 5 years of age. Other diseases such as Chagas disease, leishmaniosis and schistosomiasis affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Many of these diseases are preventable through informed protective measures.

3 HOSPITAL FACILITIES & PRACTICES SHOULD MINIMIZE OR ELIMINATE THE ESCAPE OF ARTHROPODS AND PATHOGENS, PROTECT PATIENTS AND PROTECT PERSONNEL WHO WORK IN THE FACILITY. ZIKA VIRUS: Protection against mosquito bites is a key measure to prevent Zika virus infection. It is important to cover, empty or clean potential mosquito breeding sites in and around Healthcare Facilities, such as open drains. DANGEROUS SOIL EMISSIONS/GREENHOUSE GASSES: Radon (odorless and not visible) Methane (Contaminants from previous uses of the site) Pesticides Carbon Dioxide/Nitrous Oxide/Carbon Monoxide Solvent odors/gasoline (Leakage from underground fuel tanks) THE SOLUTION: Green Drain Green Drain reduces exposure to hazardous sewer gases and deadly HAI s in the workplace. It is an ecofriendly, preventative action that will lead to improved outcomes for worker & patient health, while exceeding the lifespan of traditional chemical applicants that harm the environment. Green Drain DRASTICALLY MINIMIZES THE RISK OF MULTIPLE, DEADLY HAI S. ELIMINATES: The threat of disease carrying pests that hide in your drains. (I.e. Drain Flies, Cockroach's, Fruit Flies, Silver Fish) The need to pour pesticides, chemical applicants and deodorizers down the drain. REDUCES: The risk of harmful sewer gasses intruding your facility through drain lines. Costly chemical expenditures. Plumbing related call outs. Exterminator related call outs and call backs. Timely drain maintenance by Facility Staff and Plumbers. Sewer load. The chemical impact on our oceans and environment. CONSERVES: Water and water related expenses by eliminating the need for trap primers. Time and energy. CONCLUSIONS: Laboratory research with arthropod vectors of vertebrate disease is essential for an improved understanding of the role of the vector in pathogen transmission and for development of enhanced disease prevention strategies. GREEN DRAIN WILL GIVE YOU THE PEACE OF MIND KNOWING THAT YOUR FACILITY S DRAINAGE SYSTEM IS PROTECTED!

4 waterless trap for floor drains Drain Protection Drainage technology is an area that has evolved very little since the advent of modern plumbing. However, buildings are getting bigger and the volume of matter we now push through these pipes are stressing the pipes out. The volume of drainage blockages has increased. Waste disposals and macerators are flushing solids. Commercial kitchens are washing away fats and fat solids. The pipes haven t increased in size, but the volume of content flowing through them has. Many buildings are also going green. Low flush toilets are installed. Water-saving devices on taps, showers and even energy efficient boilers are installed. Going Green ignores the original design of modern plumbing. Gravity and WATER push content through the pipes. When you reduce the water in a drain pipe and increase the content, the following happens: Blockages This leads to back-ups, flooding, drain flies and more infiltrating the living/work space through the drains. Dry Traps This causes the airflow to reverse direction instead of going down the drain it moves into the living/work area. Germs spread. It can lead to pathogen spread. Viruses such as NORO and SARS can spread quickly through the pipes and out the drains. Sewer Smells When the airflow reverses, sewer gas odors travel back into the living/work space through the drains. Sewer gas contains highly toxic substances such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. These gases are extremely flammable and exposure can cause headaches, nausea, dizziness and irritation to the eyes and respiratory tract. Green Drain, Inc. manufactures an economical Drain Trap Seal Device that allows water to flow down the drain while preventing Pests, Odors, or Harmful Gases/ Pathogens from infiltrating the living or work space. +27(0) Strand Crt, Suite #101 Naples, FL greendrains.com

5 waterless trap for floor drains Drain Fly Infiltration Drain flies appear in homes, rest rooms of commercial buildings, sewage disposal plants and agricultural facilities that handle moist animal waste. Restaurants, schools and other public buildings may be avoided when drain flies are a nuisance. Bronchial asthma can be caused by inhaling fragments and dust of dead flies. Since these flies originate in filthy conditions, there is the possibility of physical transmission of microbes of human health concern. Drain flies can carry bacteria and other microorganisms from egg-laying sites to food and surfaces that come in contact with food. Life Cycle Drain fly larvae grow and feed in polluted, shallow water or in highly moist organic solids prevalent in drains. The life cycle of drain flies can be completed in one to three weeks. Adults live about two weeks, with old ones dying and new ones emerging. Prevention The most effective way to prevent drain fly infestations is to eliminate their breeding places. Inside buildings, this would include cleaning the drain pipes, drain traps and other plumbing system components in an attempt to eliminate the bacterial scum (gelatinous rotting, organic matter) that regularly forms on the surfaces of plumbing. Pesticide Treatments There are no insecticides registered for use in drains or sewage systems, as they can cause major damage of sewer and sanitation systems. In most cases, the larvae seem to be resistant to such treatments. The Green Drain can help to prevent drain fly infiltration and potentially fatal cross contamination and infection spread caused by unprotected drains. The Green Drain is an economical Drain Trap Seal Device that allows water to flow down the drain while preventing Pests, Odors, and Harmful Gases/Pathogens from infiltrating the living or work space. +27(0) FPT Building D Berth, South Arm, Cape Town South Africa 8001 greendrains.co.za

6 waterless trap for floor drains Harmful Biologic Aerosols It is widely established that drains are reservoirs for microbes and antibiotic residues. It is also clear that microbes in drains and pipes adhere to the surfaces of drains and drainage pipes as microbial biofilms, creating a complex ecosystem of different microbes that are fed by organic and inorganic matter. Drains act as cradles to the emergence of bacteria armed with abilities to resist multiple antibiotics. The development of resistance is probably enhanced at hospitals due to the fact that more bacteria and more antibiotics are flushed down the drains due to the very nature of hospitals constantly caring for numerous different patients that are ill and treated with antibiotics. Thus, biofilm in building drains, not properly maintained, have the potential of spreading even more resistant bacteria. Numerous studies stress the importance of a physical barrier between drainage systems and surroundings. As shown in the SARS outbreak at Amoy Gardens, harmful biologic aerosols can enter the ventilation system from exposed drains and be spread to all the other connected rooms igniting a fearsome spread. It is essential that drainage systems must be completely tight and intact where openings have physical barriers. The Green Drain can help to prevent potentially fatal cross contamination and infection spread caused by unprotected drains. The Green Drain is an economical Drain Trap Seal Device that allows water to flow down the drain while preventing Pests, Odors, and Harmful Gases/Pathogens from infiltrating the living or work space. +27(0) FPT Building D Berth, South Arm, Cape Town South Africa 8001 greendrains.co.za

7 waterless trap for floor drains Sewer Gas Infiltration Sewer gas is a complex mixture of toxic and nontoxic gases that can be present at varying levels depending upon the source. It is formed during the decay of household and industrial waste. Highly toxic components of sewer gas include hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. Sewer gas also contains methane, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrous oxides. In addition, chlorine bleaches, industrial solvents, and gasoline are frequently present in municipal and privately owned sewage treatment systems. The principal risks and effects associated with exposure are: Hydrogen Sulfide Poisoning. Exposure to low levels of hydrogen sulfide causes irritation of the eyes and respiratory tract. Other symptoms include nervousness, dizziness, nausea, headache, and drowsiness. This gas smells like rotten eggs, even at extremely low concentrations. Exposure to high concentrations can interfere with the sense of smell, making this warning signal unreliable. At extremely high levels, hydrogen sulfide can cause immediate loss of consciousness and death. Asphyxiation. High concentrations of methane in en closed areas can lead to suffocation, as large amounts of methane will decrease the amount of oxygen in the air. The effects of oxygen deficiency include headache, nausea, dizziness and unconsciousness. At very low oxygen concentrations (<12%), unconsciousness and death may occur very quickly and without warning. Sewer gas diffuses and mixes with indoor air, and will be most concentrated where it is entering the home. It can accumulate in basements. Explosion and Fire. Methane and hydrogen sulfide are flammable and highly explosive. The Green Drain can help to prevent sewer gas infiltration and potentially fatal cross contamination and infection spread caused by unprotected drains. The Green Drain is an economical Drain Trap Seal Device that allows water to flow down the drain while preventing Pests, Odors, and Harmful Gases/Pathogens from infiltrating the living or work space. +27(0) FPT Building D Berth, South Arm, Cape Town South Africa 8001 greendrains.co.za

8 waterless trap for floor drains Radon Gas Infiltration Radon is an odorless radioactive gas that results from the natural breakdown of uranium in soil. Uranium is present in most of the soil and rock around the world. It is typically concentrated in areas with lots of granite, shale, phosphate and pitchblende. The gas is a deadly carcinogen, accounting for over 20,000 deaths annually in North America. Studies show that sealing the sump and the floor drain eliminates the major source of radon infiltration. Radon gas comes from the decay products of uranium in the ground beneath buildings. It can seep in through cracks, sumps, joints, floor drains or other tiny openings in foundations. Radon gas emits radioactive particles that can be inhaled into the lungs. The adverse health effect lung cancer may not be produced immediately. An estimated 21,800 people die annually from radonrelated lung cancer. Radon is invisible, odorless, and tasteless. One in 15 houses have elevated radon levels; however, in some states it is over 50 to 70% of homes. Elevated radon levels have been discovered in every state in our nation. The USEPA estimates as many as 8 million homes throughout the country have elevated levels of radon. Over 70,000 classrooms have radon levels above the EPA action level. Fast Facts RADON - the second leading cause of lung cancer. RADON - is invisible, odorless, and tasteless. RADON - estimated 23,000 deaths yearly. SURGEON GENERAL S WARNING: Radon causes lung cancer. The Green Drain can help to prevent harmful radon gas infiltration through unprotected drains. The Green Drain is an economical Drain Trap Seal Device that allows water to flow down the drain while preventing Pests, Odors, and Harmful Gases/Pathogens from infiltrating the living or work space. +27(0) FPT Building D Berth, South Arm, Cape Town South Africa 8001 greendrains.co.za

18 CE marking The letters CE appear on many products traded on the extended Single Market in the European Economic Area (EEA). They signify that products sold in the EEA have been assessed to meet high safety, health, and environmental protection requirements. When you buy a new phone, a teddy bear, or a TV within the EEA, you can find the CE mark on them. CE marking also supports fair competition by holding all companies accountable to the same rules. By affixing the CE marking to a product, a manufacturer declares that the product meets all the legal requirements for CE marking and can be sold throughout the EEA. This also applies to products made in other countries that are sold in the EEA. There are two main benefits CE marking brings to businesses and consumers within the EEA: Businesses know that products bearing the CE marking can be traded in the EEA without restrictions. Consumers enjoy the same level of health, safety, and environmental protection throughout the entire EEA. CE marking is a part of the EU s harmonisation legislation, which is mainly managed by Directorate- General for Internal market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs. The CE marking for Restriction of Hazardous Substances is managed by Directorate-General for Environment. Comprehensive guidance on the implementation of EU product rules can be found in the so-called Blue Guide. This website provides information for manufacturers, importers and distributors on their responsibilities when placing a product on the EEA market. It also informs consumers about the rights and benefits that CE marking brings them.
