Re: EcoloBlue Atmospheric Water Generator

[Guest guest]

creating water from the humidity in the air might be ok in the summer time here

but in

the winter time, I am purposely adding humidity to the air in my house with an

Aprilaire. I

wouldn't want something like this then removing the humidity.

Well, it's awfully expensive, and it requires quite a bit of

electricity to operate, so I'm not sure it's a great idea. Besides,

it's not like we don't have plenty of atmospheric pollution. I don't

know whether anyone's done any kind of comparative analysis, though.
