NAME OF FEATURE | THE GLEANER | SUNDAY, JULY 12, 2020 12 I N JUNE 2012,Talawah Investments Ltd became Kingston’s largest private-water provider. This facil- ity, now branded as Tala-Water, is a fully functional bulk-water sup- plier, centrally located in the heart of Kingston at 9-13 Ballater Avenue, Kingston 10. We are open Monday to Saturday from8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and can be reached at (876) 968-1452. Our water is derived fromour own private artesian well. Christened Rehoboth (Genesis 26:22), it is ca- pable of providing over one million gallons of water per day. It is drilled to a depth of over 300 feet within a confined alluvium aquifer of natu- rally filtered sand and gravel. This abundant supply of reliable water is then brought to the surface, treated, and blended, the result of which surpasses the impeccably high standards of theWorld Health Organization’s requirements for po- table water as well as all relevant local-government authorities. We also offer unblended reverse os- mosis water for those customers who desire this additional level of purification. Please feel free to call our office for more details. Tala-Water also provides water for the construction industry and users of large quantities of water.We are an alternative source of water in times of drought, prolonged water lock-offs, or after a natural disaster. We are designed for the rapid load- ing of multiple tankers capable of loading 8,000 gallons in 10minutes. Do you know the source of your bulk water? Don’t be fooled. Not all bulk-water haulers get their water from approved sources. Tala-Water rigorously tests and monitors their water daily, thereby guaranteeing that the highest standards are kept andmaintained. Ensure that your bulk water provider is an approved Tala- Water supplier by calling our offices for verification.
