Boil Water Alerts Are Becoming the New Normal: Experts Urge Municipalities to Get Ahead of the Crisis

As boil‐water alerts continue to surge across municipalities nationwide, water‐safety experts warn that communities must shift from reactive responses to proactive preparedness. Aging infrastructure, main breaks, storm impacts, and contamination events have made boil‐water advisories a recurring disruption for millions of Americans each year.

According to emergency‐response specialists, the frequency of these alerts underscores a growing vulnerability in local water systems, and the urgent need for rapid‐deployment solutions that can keep residents safe when municipal water becomes compromised.

"Boil‐water alerts are no longer rare, isolated incidents- they're happening across the country," said Jeff Szur, Founder and Chief Operations Officer of Altitude Water (https://altdwater.com/), a Florida‐based leader in the development of Atmospheric Water Generators (AWG) recently honored by Prestige Awards as 2025/2026's 'Sustainable Water Company of the Year'. "Communities deserve reliable access to clean drinking water, even when infrastructure fails. Preparedness is essential."

Altitude Water has emerged as a national leader in water‐crisis readiness, manufacturing AWG systems that produce clean drinking water by pulling humidity directly from the air. The company's one-of-a-kind innovation, the Disaster Relief Trailer, is designed specifically for moments like boilwater emergencies, providing pure drinking water, solar power energy, cell service, and internet service to in-need communities.

The trailer has already been deployed in disaster zones across Florida, North Carolina, and Maui, delivering life‐sustaining resources when traditional systems failed.

Boil‐water advisories often strike without warning, leaving residents scrambling for bottled water and placing enormous strain on local agencies. For communities with aging infrastructure, the risk is even higher.

"Cities can't afford to wait until the next main break or contamination event," Szur expressed. "Having a rapid‐response water solution on standby can prevent panic, reduce logistical burdens, and protect public health."

Altitude Water's work has been recognized by numerous other organizations committed to environmental sustainability and disaster relief, including: The Weather Channel, Australia's Ticker News, Energies Magazine, the U.S. Marines, and numerous environmental and disaster‐relief groups. Szur himself has been honored internationally, including at the Forbes 2024 Forbes Best of Africa Award Ceremony and the UN Climate Week Sustainability Summit.

From residential AWGs to military‐grade systems, Altitude Water has spent nearly two decades advancing water‐independence technology. The company's Trident‐12 AWG was recently named in Food & Beverage Magazine's prestigious list of Top Fall Products, and its innovations have been featured in Mansion Global, Marine Business News, Water Conditioning & Purification International Magazine, and dozens of other outlets.

"Water independence is the future," Szur added. "Every community deserves the peace of mind that comes from knowing clean water is always within reach."
