Why Us

Aquair has selected several innovative technologies to represent our main line of products.

 

1. Technology

Air to Water Technology

The “air to water” technology allows us to provide healthy drinking water from the air by extracting water from the humidity in the air and then running it through a series of filters to turn it into pure, highly oxygenated water.

Producing healthy drinking water from air typically works as follows:

1. Air is drawn into a machine and passes through an air filter and UV light which purifies it

2. The moisture is condensed from the outside air on coated coils and collected

3. Purified, cool, dry conditioned air is released to room

4. The produced water is circulated while ozone is injected into it

5. A five-stage filtration system removes impurities, producing pure water. The five stages are:

1. Sediment Filtration - Removes any foreign particles and remnants

2. Sterilizer Filtration - Patented technology to sterilize any bacteria of virus and filter them out of the water.

3. Carbon Block - Removes odors and improves taste.

4. A patented membrane technology provides an unparalleled isolation of clean water molecules.

5. UV Light – Kills bacteria and microorganisms

6. Water is ready to be dispensed hot and cold

Although the basic ”air to water” technology was developed in the 1990s, it has only been within the last five years that current filter technology has enabled the extracted water to be purified efficiently and effectively. The “air to water” technology we offer has been refined over the past few years based on testing and customer feedback. Major improvements over first and second generation designs include greater water capacity, efficiency, and filtration.

Using this “air to water” technology, Aquair will soon offer a unit designed for business/residential use and currently offers sixteen units designed for industrial/commercial use.

2. New Applications

Disaster Relief and Other Mobile Campsites

A practical application of our mobile “air to water” unit where the no great solution exists for purified drinking water and is currently being met by PET is for Disaster relief and other mobile campsites:

· Need for a quick response of water (currently must organize warehouses of bottles and trucks to ship)

· Bottled water has drawbacks in costs, convenience, quality (as mentioned below)

· No electricity is available in many areas

· No clean water source or worse, no water source, is available in many areas

· No semi-truck access is available in many areas

· Need for a constant, reliable source of water (currently must rely on the transportation of bottle water)

· Costs for this reliability will only increase as overhead to distribute increases

· No dehumidification is available in many areas

· No air conditioning is available in many areas

· No air filtration is available in many areas

Maritime Vessels and Offshore Rigs

A practical application of our mobile “air to water” unit where the no great solution exists for purified drinking water and is currently being met by PET is for maritime vessels and offshore rigs:

· No clean water source or worse, no water source, is available

· Need for a constant, reliable source of water (currently must rely on the transportation of bottle water or salt filtration technologies)

Costs for this reliability will only increase as overhead to distribute increases

· Bottled water has drawbacks in costs, convenience, and quality (as mentioned previously)

· Reverse Osmosis has drawbacks in costs, convenience, and quality (as mentioned previously)

· Wastewater management is costly with recordkeeping, fees, and equipment

· Wastewater management costs will increase as new more stringent laws are being passed

· Dehumidification is costly

· Air conditioning costly

· Air filtration is costly
