Full Description

Air conditioning condensation can supply large quantities of high-quality distilled water. It can be collected cost effectively and added to other water for almost any use. Condensate collection may not be the solution to all of our water needs. Nevertheless, it is possible that vast quantities could be collected everyday over the hottest six months of the year if everyone was to use this practice. If you can get to the pipe that your air conditioning condensate drains from, you can catch it and use it for landscape irrigation, process water or cooling water. On a hot day in San Antonio, a typical home can easily catch five to ten gallons of water. In larger office buildings or industrial settings, the numbers can be astounding. This paper takes an in-depth look at condensate recovery. Along with a number of actual case studies, the paper also provides some simple calculations for determining condensate recovery potential and feasibility. Includes table.
