Water safety

Collected or stored water can contain microbes, dust and chemicals from the materials it touches.

Clean the unit and replace filters as directed.
Follow guidance from your local health authority, the CDC or the EPA on treating and storing water.
Do not rely on a DIY unit as your only water source in an emergency.

Results vary

The amount of water a DIY atmospheric water generator produces depends on humidity, temperature, airflow, materials and workmanship. We make no promise of any specific quantity, quality or savings.
