And yes, in general it is bad to drink distilled water all the time.

But if you live in a place where there is no fresh water, this will keep you alive. Lets hope they build a massive one in countries with no fresh water.

This might be part of our answer for avoiding the future wars over water.]]>Jul 2nd 2008 9:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 2nd 2008 10:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 2nd 2008 5:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/

So now PHB can turn off the AC in the summer, thereby making us sweat. Our sweat then goes into the air, at which point this machine will serve it to us in dixie cups. Voila.

However, where you get the water from and how it is stored can be a problem. Freshly made deionized water may have bacteria in it unless it has been further purified by filtration or UV light.

If the deionized water comes in a plastic jug from the supermarket then the minute you open it bacteria and other microorganisms can get in it and start to grow.]]>Jul 2nd 2008 8:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 2nd 2008 10:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 2nd 2008 3:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 3rd 2008 2:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 2nd 2008 8:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/

If you are in a place with plenty of water, you can get that water from the tap. The plumbing uses a lot less energy/electricity than this crazy machine with a dehumidifier and a filter.

It's an obvious idea, and there are obvious reasons why nobody has bothered to do it before. It's just a waste.]]>Jul 2nd 2008 10:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/Jul 2nd 2008 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/02/klimatic-base-1-airwater-machine-pulls-drinking-water-from-the-a/buying an undercounter Reverse Osmosis unit would make more sense,
