How To Turn Air Into Drinking Water

2017-04-21
this is something that I first heard about and asked myself is that really a thing and that's the sign of a good unbox therapy video when I have to question whether or not the product that somebody is pitching me is actually going to do something that I find to be surprising now I'm no scientist I know it's hard to believe but there's something I do know about this machine right here and that is the fact that it can make pure filtered drinking water from the air let that sink in for a minute I'm sure some of your kids don't know out there is there's moisture in the air if you could only capture that you'd have all the water you ever needed eight gallons of water or 30 liters of water in one single day that's what it will pull out of the air it's not plugged into plumbing you're not putting a a water tank on top of it you can use this thing in the desert you could use this thing off the grid you Colo blue water from air let's crack this open fancy whoa it's equipped with a 12 stage water from air filtration system includes carbon filters a mineral filter a reverse osmosis membrane a post-carbon filter and three Phillips UV sterilization lamps depending on your environment the humidity level that will determine how much water you can create but as I said before it's up to eight gallons or 30 litres a day that this thing can pull out of the atmosphere so it looks like yeah oh these are the various filters here that's pretty wild these guys don't only just make at home units like this but also industrial units that are much bigger than this look it's got an air filter on it this looks like the UV filter okay so it's been sort of roughly 48 hours since this thing was plugged in in the early stages which you actually want to do what this thing is flush it out with with normal municipal water so you fill up the back tank where the UV filter is and it kind of flushes it through the system at which point then it begins to generate water from the air and the thing that I noticed immediately was that its ability to generate water is highly dependent on how humid your environment is roughly 48 hours it was able to get a full tank now that tank is about 30 liters so it's a lot of water now it should be obvious that this thing uses electricity so it's not like you're getting this water for free you're having to pay to run this machine so there is a cost associated with that a couple of other cool things about this particular machine is that it can do both cold and hot so it has refrigeration as well and you can see on the front here you have a cold button and a hot button another thing I realize is you can connect carbonation to this if you like some bubbly water as I like to call it you can hook up a canister in here which will actually give you a third option beyond just cold and hot you can now add carbonation for a little bit more of a treat this indicator will let you know when the system is actually generating water these raindrops will be falling down they'll tell you when you need to replace filters it'll also tell you how much water you have in both the bottom tank and top tank so this system down here is responsible for giving you that clean solution sediment pre carbon membrane mineral filter post-carbon by the time your water is through here there's nothing left in it that could be a contaminant so what do you say Jack should we give it a taste hold this button on the cold your nice clear glass of water who's also cold and I gotta say it's pretty amazing I'm drinking something that was trapped in the air which is now in my glass I know to some scientists in the crowd you're like what's the big deal yeah of course there's moisture in the air but the idea of a machine like this this can consider in your office and you're not lugging any water in here it's pretty amazing to actually experiment with from a cost to performance ratio this isn't like magical it's this still a cost associated with it that you should be aware of but I think as an alternative as a backup and to service places that might not have access or to avoid the abundance of bottles of water you know the whole ecosystem that exists there for waste and so on that's really where this thing comes in I think this is for anybody who wants a self-sustaining water production system anyone who's off the system who doesn't have municipal water access to water in places that are deprived of water places like the west coast in cottages it would be awesome to have these up there where you might be concerned about the the quality of water but if you can find a way to get power to these there it is you have clean water now to enjoy I thought it was cool I think you might think the same water from nothing water from the air eco low blue check them out this is not the only machine they make and who knows this might be the future of water right here
