How atmospheric water generators work

An AWG turns airborne moisture into collected liquid water. The concept is straightforward; reliable, safe implementation is not.

The basic loop

Air enters the system, moisture is condensed or captured, collected water moves into a reservoir, and a properly designed system may include filtration, disinfection and sanitary storage stages.

Four variables matter

01

Humidity

Available moisture controls the raw opportunity.

02

Temperature

Dew point and cooling requirements affect condensation.

03

Energy

Cooling and air movement require power.

04

Water quality

Collection surfaces, air quality, plumbing and storage affect the final water.
