Water safety

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

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 collector produces depends on humidity, temperature, air flow, materials and workmanship. We make no promise of any specific quantity, quality or savings.

DIY risk

Building projects involve tools, materials and sometimes electricity. Use appropriate safety gear, follow manufacturer instructions, comply with local laws, and seek professional help when unsure. We are not responsible for injury, damage or loss arising from any project.
