I’m curious as to how much this thing costs, as it definitely looks interesting. If they made a solar powered one, that would REALLY take things to a new level…

As one in the industry, I can tell you that that rating is probably for 90 F and 90% humidity. At 50F and 50% humidity, expect an output of about 1.5 litres per day.

Also, folks, most dehumidifiers are crippled air conditioners. This is not really new technology, just a new product.

duceolsen: That’s exactly what it is and yes, you could build one yourself or just buy a dehumidifier at a yard sale and pipe it into your water filter.

Often, water that is condensed out of the air is already more pure than water from an aquifer or running water.

It wouldn’t work in the winter in colder climes as it would freeze up.

Still a good idea, its different.

Ok so it will not reduce the humidity in the house as it states that it pulls air from the OUTSIDE.
also what is this other than a glorified dehumidifier with an attached water purifier?

I think here in the states you can get a good sized dehumidifier for around 80-100 usd

If you knew what you were doing it, I dont see it being too difficult to build yourself something that could do the same thing for cheap.

That’s a pretty incredible idea. I’d like to see video of one in action. It definitely makes sense.

This sounds like a great option for people who need air conditioning and live in humid areas because part of air conditioning is dehumidifying the air.

btw, let’s be nice!

Hi,

I wonder if it comes – if it doesn’t it should – with a device to measure humidity as not to “drain” it too much. Afterall one needs humidity or health problems may arise.
Have they taken this into account ?

Take care,

José

Since it seems we are stating the obvious here:

This device will never appeal to people who prefer the color black.

Linuxamp,

I bet it doesn’t run well under water.

Prem,

Really? Are you saying that developing economies do not have a lot of disposable income? Thanks for that piece of brilliant marketing device. You jut saved me a ton of money, I was about to launch a gold plated version of a similar item in Kenya.

Idiots.

The cost of this machine is around 800 pounds. if this has to be used in developing countries, then the cost must be reduced.

I wonder humidity level is required for this to run effectively. I’m sure it won’t do much good for people living in dry areas.
