How does the air-to-water technology work?
Air-to-water technology works by converting water vapor in the air (humidity) into water. The water generators which are located outside, replicates the natural process of condensation. Air is drawn in to the unit and the water condenses when it comes in to contact with cold coils. The water generators are therefore able to produce a continuous supply of water.
How much water is in the atmosphere?
There is always water in the atmosphere. Clouds form the most visible manifestation of atmospheric water, but even clear air contains water. One estimate of the volume of water in the atmosphere at any one time is about 3,100 cubic miles (mi3) or 12,900 cubic kilometers (km3). Extracting water vapor does not have a negative impact on the environment as the air is continuously replenished by the earths natural water cycle through evaporation and transpiration.
How much water can the air-to-water systems make?
The amount of water generated is reliant on two factors: the humidity levels and the temperature. The lower the humidity level the less water the system will produce. The water generators are therefore located outside where the humidity levels are higher than inside where the air is already heavily air-conditioned. An interim tank is associated with most of the systems so in periods of low humidity, the purifier/dispenser will drawn on the water that is already created and stored in the interim tank.
What happens when there’s low humidity in the air?
An interim tank is associated with most of the systems so in periods of low humidity, the purifier/dispenser will draw the water that is already created and stored in the interim tank.
How does the purifier filter the water?
The water is passed through a filtration system, which includes a sediment filter, a pre-carbon filter, an ultra-fine and a post carbon filter. The water is then passed through a UV filter. Ozone is also injected in to the water to keep is fresh and clean ready to be dispensed at the point of demand.
How long is the warranty?
The warranty period is one year manufacturers warranty which can be extended on an annual basis. All systems are provided on the basis of the client signing a full maintenance and service contract to ensure continuous support is provided.
What is the lifespan of the machine?
With adequate maintenance the units will last 10 years.
