Germ free holy water dispenser invented
An Irish American firefighter has eased the worries of millions of church goers
“Funny actually, cause the last time I was in Ireland I actually worked as a baggage handler for Aer Lingus out of JFK,” he said looking back.
Although it’s in the early stages, Hartel has held meetings with distributors in North Carolina, Rhode Island and Queens.
“The distributor in Providence, Rhode Island is extremely interested and we may make a deal for him to be our main artery to other distributors/stores throughout the country,” he said.
Because it’s still the early stages, Hartel has not yet approached the Catholic Church with his product, but he is expecting them to be very interested in it.
“I have not approached the offices of the church as of yet, but I have spoken and shown the dispenser to a few priests who have advised me of some changes, and these changes have been made during the production phase,” he said.
Not only is Hartel anticipating Catholic Churches around the globe showing interest in his product, he also feels that Catholic schools and hospital chapels will follow suit.
People with holy water fonts in their homes have already made requests about purchasing a home version so they too can stay germ free.
“Once this takes off here, I am hoping to then go international and Ireland will be my first destination,” he said.
At the moment the product is used electrically, requiring Hartel to change the electrical make up so the product suited to other countries worldwide.
