Stimulus Funding for Education - Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are portable handwashing sinks?
A: Portable hand washing sinks, or mobile sinks, are a utility that allows for healthy handwashing in locations where traditional plumbing or running water is unavailable. Portable sinks typically include a freshwater tank and a gray water tank. A foot-operated or electric pump is used to provide the freshwater through a faucet, onto the user’s hands, and then drain into the gray water tank. With the ability to bypass traditional plumbing requirements, portable hand sinks allow users to wash their hands where they otherwise couldn’t. Portable handwashing sinks make handwashing convenient which increases hygiene wherever they are used.
Q: Do portable sinks reduce the spread of COVID-19?
A: The United States’ CDC asserts that handwashing is the most important step that an individual can take to reduce exposure and spread of germs, including the virus that causes COVID-19. When a school district utilizes portable hand sinks, more staff and students are able to wash their hands more often. Students can wash their hands as they return from recess, teachers can wash their hands between classes, and custodians can easily wash their hands whenever it’s required. Time is a valuable resource in schools, and with portable sinks stationed in classrooms and hallways, instruction time can be saved while handwashing frequency increases.
Q: Are portable handwashing sinks easily transported between locations?
A: Nearly all portable sinks feature wheels that allow for easy transportation between locations. Many school districts find that the sinks they use within the school during instruction time work well at extracurricular and athletic events in the evening. For school districts interested in using federal stimulus funding to increase hygiene, environmental health, and facilitate safe reopening, portable sinks will work in all areas of schools. Many of the most popular portable handwashing sinks can provide multiple days of handwashing between refills and the need to empty the gray water tank. If you need assistance selecting the right mobile sinks for your schools, simply contact our Sink Specialists who will be happy to help you.
Q: Are portable sinks considered touch-free?
A: That depends on your selection. Portable hand washing sinks are available with a wide range of features meant to accommodate all applications and budgets. Several are available that provide a manual soap dispenser, touchless faucet, and pull-down paper towel dispenser. Where touchless handwash stations are required, our team of Sink Specialists can quickly assist you. The most affordable touchless sinks available are found in the Outdoor Sinks section and are operated with a foot pump. Increasingly, education organizations are utilizing foot pump, outdoor sinks both in classrooms and for outdoor extracurricular events. The flexibility of units like the MOBI-2 and the PolyJohn PSW1-1000 allow schools to purchase fewer units that can be used in numerous locations.
Q: What types of funding are available for education?
A: Coronavirus Relief Stimulus is available in three formats as a function of previous Stimulus packages as of the start of the year 2021. It is also anticipated that additional funds will become available through new packages approved in the first half of 2021, though the details of the additional funding are not known. Currently, funding available for education includes Elementary and Secondary School Relief Fund (ESSER), Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEER), and Governors Emergency Education Relief Fund (GEER). ESSER funds are reserved for K-12 facilities that receive Title 1 funding and can be used for repairs and improvements (portable sinks) that reduce the risk of virus transmission and exposure to environmental health hazards. HEER funds are available to Higher Education facilities that receive Pell Grants and can be used for non-permanent changes (portable sinks) only. GEER funding is available in the form of grants issued at the discretion of the State Governor, intended for Education Agencies in the most need, and can be used to facilitate re-opening and safe operation (portable sinks).
