Part 2 | How To Make Your Own Air To Water Generator At Home | 4 to 9 Gallons Of Purified Water/Day

[@tonyallen9025]

Never use a garden hose, if you use a garden hose you will surely taste the inside lining of the garden hose. Instead use a RV drinking water hose. I know this from making that mistake.

[@nitabean82]

I was very concerned about that hose. Thank you.

[@tonyallen9025]

Glad to help.

[@proudamerican715]

Frank out of the house as kids for yrs😅now it's a problem.jpw about your copper water lines?

[@raymondpetersen3543]

They make hose for RV that are drinking water approved

[@stg3orgeguy26]

To those that posted negative comments can I see your homemade atmospheric water generators it's just you all seem to know more about this than the video creator

[@NewportStudio]

Always trolls on the internet, have a great day!

[@roseannenorman7129]

I really appreciate this. The ones that are produced are so expensive.

[@dohnutz8452]

This is a good method to put together a simple water from air system. Good video. I would not have put a hole in the jug’s cap, especially if you plan on using the jug for storage. Just take the cap off and fill the bottle. Then cap it and find another bottle or water brick to store more water.

[@bobsecret199]

His method slows down the inevitable evaporation process. All he needs is just ONE cap with the hole in it. When full he can still screw the regular cap on and store it.

[@venesaserrano9821]

I thought the same thing. Could've put some plastic wrap and poked a hole in it 🤦‍♀️

[@michaelcrouch5168]

Ok I'm pretty sure the guy knows better than to drink water from a hose he seems like a brilliant guy he's probably just using the hose as an example

[@petercohen3966]

Thanks for taking the time to teach us this.

[@BeeeHonest]

Absolutely brilliant idea. Thanks!

[@ThomWalbranA1]

JUST A NOTE, You should use the WHITE hoses for Drinking water refer to RV. DCon't get that rubbery taste.

[@cnotation]

I love this video series, I think the prices have gone up on the items so alot of people are doing this.

[@Mechman0925]

These filters do not remove floride although Berkey does make separate floride filters. Also this is not cleaner than distilled water although the water coming from the de-humidifyer is distilled. Heating water vapor then condensing it is the basis of distillation. All in all this is a great simple AWG.

[@briangriffin6224]

Using a solar electric generator to power up the dehumidifier

[@chaos-nomas9336]

You, my friend, are an excellent teacher!! Thank you!!

[@gbmarie836]

You need to be using a hose meant for drinking water, not a garden hose.b

[@pamagujar183]

Walmart or RV camping stores have those drinking hoses because they're used in trailer parks for clean water. Some garden hoses have a lot of lead in it's material still.

[@labanbaxter]

Also it'll taste like garden hose

[@jemmasterJohnE]

I'm just fine from drinking garden hose water back in the 70's, Its the coils of the radiator I would be worried about. That's Metal.

[@josholin31]

@@jemmasterJohnE I wouldn't worry too much. You'd want to filter the air and water. While cleaning the dehumidifier periodically. Unless you enjoy drinking whatever is stewed at the bottom or in the fins.. flavor maybe? (Possibly hazardous with bacteria / mold. The flavor part was a joke and I don't recommend drinking it untreated.)

[@bbmon7571]

Iam just saying in a survival situation. The last thing your worried about is BPAs in the plastic, and more about getting water to survive.

[@maimajewski7775]

BPA free hoses are available frim Camco.

[@moonolyth]

Great subject. You can run a thin line vs. large hose. I have a 3/8ths I think. Celtic salt has more min. and pink salts can differ in quality from China probably. It may be a good Idea to drop some good quality copper in your collection bucket as it kills bacteria...or a silver coin...remember the smart rich still use copper pipes?

[@KingKong-bq7wt]

"Cleaner than distilled water" LOL!

[@ashzole]

Trash the garden hose and use a drinkable hose like Camco EvoFlex 4-Foot Super Flexible Drinking Water Hose At the end of your hose that dumps into the water gallon, attach a filter , carbon or use a .01 micron cloth filter Here’s my setup: A dehumidifier with steel coils that goes into a water distiller , once the distiller tank reaches full, it turns on and then runs through a .01 micron filter then into a 8 gallon stainless steel tank with timed scheduled UV lights btw , there’s no such thing as cleaner then distiller water. all filters do is capture contaminates BUT you have water that has to pass through the junk. Distillers separate, this is the ultimate goal. sorry wrong again , you want pure water, get your minerals from food NOT from water, you WILL NOT die from drink distilled water , my family drinking distiller fir over 12 years

[@esporev]

I was thinking the same thing about the garden hose, any good hardware store should sell good hose material

[@NewportStudio]

Great tip! Just changed that in the description

[@mahavira108]

What brand humidifier and distiller?

[@Sourpusscandy]

Finally! Someone who understands what’s going on! This guy’s vid is no way making pure or drinking water.

[@forgotmypassword2804]

Do you know how to set this up without the reliance on the outlet/grid power? Thanks

[@bobsecret199]

Use a portable solar power bank attached to solar panels and just plug it in like you would a wall outlet.

[@wheepingwillow24u17]

GREAT VIDEOS ON THIS TOPIC, JUST HAVING THOSE QUESTIONS I HOPE YOU ANSWER. ALSO I WENT TO AMAZON AND VIEWED THIS PARTICULAR BRAND/MODEL, IT DOESN'T APPEAR THAT THE CONTINUAL HOSE YOU SHOWED THAT WILL HOOK TO A WATER HOSE IS APPLICABLE COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN, THANKS

[@normaperkins]

what connection piece are you using to connect the back

[@NewportStudio]

Hi Norma, just the hose connector

[@somedohavethem]

[@NewportStudio]

Thanks Jack!

[@twissol2494]

Is adding Key Lime and ginger to distilled water good too?

[@shyrinTM]

Wow what a life saver

[@bornwhitit]

You can buy tubing and a fitting. You can buy a shorter piece of hose as well. 👍 great video

[@NewportStudio]

Great idea! Thanks Mike

[@lifeoftraveling8330]

I'd connect a brass hose spliter with the 2 out puts as inputs and use 2 dehumidifiers going down to the water collection and I saw the people saying how unsafe it is in comments and couldn't help but laugh at them it's safer to drink water from this system then fron the tap or the bottled water since deer springs water is from deer springs water treatment center for there local tap water where they are located buying bottled water you are just paying water for a different states water board that supplies water to there town used to have a friend that's job was to fill the deer springs water bottles for sale and it all came from the same place and same treatment as the water they pumped through the pipes to homes and businesses

[@lee-tx5mw]

salt will also help youre body to absorb the water instead of it just passing through .plus the mineral benefit as a bonus

[@derakc.2783]

what do you need to filter atmospheric water? isn't it pure when it comes out of the air?

[@NewportStudio]

It's passing over the aluminum fins, gotta clean that

[@IraQNid]

How well do water purification tablets work for something like this?

[@NewportStudio]

Good question, I don't have an answer. Do they get rid of dissolved solids? Hmm, I just don't know

[@KumarBendrake]

Is your hose lead free?

[@animcmillan5240]

Can you tip the water in the collection tray at the back into bottles or would the water be tainted by the plastic of the water collection tray?

[@NewportStudio]

Hi Ani, I would not recommend using the tank that comes with the dehumidifier for a few reasons. The plastic tray is not made “BPA Free”. This doesn’t sound bad at first, but if you take a deeper dive into plastics used, you can find that most plastics that aren’t BPA Free can include a chemical used in the manufacturing of certain plastics, called “bisphenol A”. According to “Medical News Today”, this type of chemical has been linked to a whole host of cardiovascular problems like coronary artery heart disease, hypertension, heart attack, angina, and more. I am not a medical provider in any sense of the imagination, but I wouldn’t risk it. It’s too simple and cost effective to purchase a BPA free hose and bottle.

[@markcorey3914]

I believe that you need to have a food grade hose, a regular garden hose introduces lead, and other contaminates, to your potable water.

[@Authoratah]

@@markcorey3914 agreed, he should use flex copper or stainless steel hose

[@jett888]

the fact that it's made in China probably is a good indication that it's poisonous.

[@hisun500]

How can it be cleaner then distilled water just a question

[@NewportStudio]

Hi Scott, I don't know if I said it was cleaner (probably did somewhere), but it can't be. I think I was talking about purified water with added minerals vs distilled water. Thanks for watching!

[@Angie4God67]

Some of yall never got told by your parents " Use the hose!" When you wanted to come in and get water and it shows 😅

[@bugzziee]

brillant!

[@srf2112]

The filtered water will not come out distilled but "better" than that like you mentioned. It will be purified but still contain the trace elements and minerals that makes water more than just hydrating but also "nutritional".

[@lxmzhg]

Since the trace essential minerals are inorganic, your body can't assimilate them, ergo they are toxic!

[@LukeTheDuke55]

3:02 nice.

[@frankoldman5255]

A problem I encountered with my 30 quart dehumidifier from Walmart was that the walls of the plastic tank quickly became coated with a slippery coating of bacteria, presumably dead skin cells from my dirty house. Bleach didn't help much, One cold winter day, there was no water produced.

[@ryanacker1]

I am confused, if you make distilled water, why would you need to filter it?

[@zedmeinhardt3404]

This isn't distilled, it is condensed from the air. If you don't filter dehumidifier water, you get to drink all the dust that was in the air too. Also, be cautious with this setup, some radiators (where this water is condensing) have lead solder which can leech into the water as it drips off.

[@proudamerican715]

​@@zedmeinhardt3404sort of like our home copper water lines😅

[@zedmeinhardt3404]

@proudamerican715 They don't use lead solder in modern potable water systems. If you have very old plumbing it's possible. However for non potable soldering, lead is cheaper, easier and faster for production.

[@g4do]

I have to say thank you for the people that can't afford 6000 dollars for a industrial awg . This saves a lot of people from the capitalism machine that doesn't care about the little guys

[@zedmeinhardt3404]

There is a risk of lead exposure depending on how they solder the condenser. They arent rated for "drinking water" and lead solder is easier and cheaper.

[@gkeith4120]

First of all it would appear to me that if you cut off the tank from the unit it would make it shorter second appears to me are using a garden hose garden hoses are not made for portable drinking water.

[@bugzziee]

except i would use an rv water hose made for drinking water

[@betl7131]

Celtic salt would be better than pink salt. It has more minerals and trace elements...

[@gsmgsa]

Aluminum water from radiator fins..

[@bugzziee]

they do say himalyan salt has lead

[@EliseGeiman]

You missed a step. You forgot the red dye test to make sure the filters are working as they should.

[@bradjoslin5436]

BERKEY are the best filters. They did cost $95 for am set of 2. But the US Government said because the filters have silver in it and it kills contaminants, it is a biohazard. They closed down one plant and took all their filters. Berkey still mfg. the filters, but other place's. Now a set of two filters cost over $180.

[@estherdavis1646]

Hope you read all the replies comments that correct your ideas

[@hisun500]

Should use a white hose not green because the green hoses have chemicals in them

Yes, you are correct, that was an error on my part. Thanks for watching!

[@yuliadudina]

People, please don't drink water produced by dehumidifiers!!! Their coils (the parts that condense water) don't have a food‑grade coating. And some coils are even coated with bactericides and mold reducing compounds which are highly toxic if ingested. I am putting this comment on all of the videos in this series to raise awareness.

[@terrafirma9328]

Where did you get your info? If the coils are aluminum it could be bad because too much aluminum is toxic in the human body. Copper would be better, the body uses a certain amount of copper.

[@jett888]

what about copper coils??

[@jett888]

I"m really glad i read this, thank you

[@terrafirma9328]

@@jett888 I would filter the dehumidified water to reduce the contaniments. Distill it, reverse osmisis, sand and carbon filters. Look into extraction processes of excessive aluminum or copper contamination in water if you go this route. Obviously this is only necissary if other water sources are too expensive or polluted or not accessable and for drinking, cooking potable water. Shower and bathing water is secondarily necessary to filter as it is in contact with skin that absorbs. Thirdly, water for cleaning needs less filtration but is still important as clothes and dishes need to be clean, finally toilet water can be reused grey water.

I drove a R.V. Hot Lunch Truck for 38 years. I use to use a nylon hose to fill a holding tank to make coffee for my customers. One day I bought a rubber hose to fill the coffee tank and to my amazement, the rubber hose took away the strong bitter taste in the coffee!! A nylon hose ruins the taste of water! I noticed that you were using a nylon hose, NOT GOOD!

[@leslielandberg5620]

That's hilarious. Few will agree with you, but I will. It may not be healthy at all, but the synthetics in the rubber are petrol based, which has a high nitrogen content, which makes it sweet. Rubber, being a resin, has the same properties. It may not be good for you in the long run, but it tastes good. I recommend braided steel. This is why conventionally grown produce often tastes better, too. Petroleum based fertilizer makes them taste sweeter. I eat the organic for health reasons but it doesn't taste better, sadly.

You can get very ill from water poisoning if you drink too much distilled water, this includes evaporation water. The water from dehumidifiers is definitely not drinkable but ok for washing dishes and showering in. This concept is well suited to off-grid living especially if the unit is driven from solar cells and an inverter and therefore free to operate.

[@WolfManCer]

I know I'm late to the party here but can't you just add minerals to the water after?

[@jaimesanchez5132]

I drank nothing but distilled water from 2016 until 2019 when the plandemic started. I couldn’t find the distilled water in Walmart. They have distilled with minerals added but that’s why I’m here looking to make my own distilled water. I got my minerals from fruits vegetables and natural juices. Look up Andrew Norton Webber, aquarious the water bearer.

[@ronprince1478]

I believe this information to be incorrect. Thousands of yachties all over the world rely on distilled water for very long periods of time with no I’ll affect. Also many medical facilities use only distilled drinking water.

[@leslielandberg5620]

Ion hungry water won't poison you, but the water will bond to your bone calcium, leaching it. Add minerals to evap and distilled water prior to drinking. You can't get it back later by eating fruit. The leaching happens when you drink the water.
