What You Need To Know About Atmosphere Water Generator

By Iva Cannon


If you have trouble getting clean water for drinking, you may want to consider some unconventional options. For instance, an atmosphere generator is a viable option. This device has the ability to extract moisture from the atmosphere through various processes that can guarantee several gallons of clean H2O. While there may be other sources of water, this device guarantees safety and also efficiency in the production process. There are things that you need to know about an atmosphere water generator.

Just like a refrigerator, an atmosphere generator has similar components which are a bit modified. Such components include: condenser, filtration system, tubing, compressor, evaporator and a fan among others. A cooling condensation process requires all these parts for smooth extraction of moisture from air. This is not so in wet desiccation process because salt is used to remove moisture from air hence, the components are different.

For air to be cooled and moisture extracted, the compressor forces a refrigerant through the condenser and the cooling coils. Once the condensation point is reached, water drops and dry air moves out. The moisture collected is channeled through a series of pipes and capillary tubes where it is directed to a tank. Since bacteria and other particles are present in the moisture, a filter is provided to clean the water.

There are basic requirements for this whole process to work effectively. It has to do with humidity, which should be about 30% to 40% and temperatures of above 18 degrees Celsius. Altitude also plays a critical role since high altitude interferes with the whole process. These requirements are a limitation to the cooling condensation process since wet desiccation method is not affected by environmental factors.

There are different forms of AWG available in the market depending on area of use and how frequently this device is used. The available types are mostly used for domestic purposes whereas rare and complex ones are only available for industrial application. Most home owners use the simple cooling condensation type while wet desiccation type is used on large scale application.

All atmospheric generators are very expensive to acquire when new but cost may vary depending on size, and intensity of use. In order to avoid stress due to poor financial planning, seek the best way to purchase one. If you are planning to buy an AWG for your home, expect relatively cheaper prices but, it is better to seek financing if your do not have enough money.

If cost of purchasing a new one is a problem, you may consider setting one on your own at home as a do-it-yourself project. All you need is a dehumidifier, water filtration system, vinyl tubing and voltage regulator among other peripherals at six times less in cost. You may find local instructions on the Internet or have a friend who has the technical know-how to assist you.

These generators are found in all major cities in consumer electronics stores. Most retail stores are accessible physically while they also have strong online presence offering sales and delivery services on the same platform. It is ideal to do research before settling on a particular atmosphere generator as well as to get the best deal possible.
