Small plastic water
distillers that are imported from other countries. Most work fine, some
don't. My personal feelings on them are. |
|
| a) |
The small distillers don't produce
enough water. |
|
|
| b) |
The capability on a small water
distiller, assumes you are up 24 hours a day, and home at the exact time
the water distiller is done with one cycle to refill it back up. |
|
|
| c) |
Plastic water distillers are troublesome
to refill and messy. |
|
|
| d) |
Most plastic water distiller use
a proprietary filter where the water drips into the container. This
means added expense, and if the company goes out of business, how will
you use your water distiller? |
|
|
| e) |
The larger water distillers we carry
use 25% less electricity for the same amount of water production. |
|
|
| f) |
Platic water distillers are great
if you want to distill 1 gallon of water, and see how much 'crud' is in
your water. |
|
|
| g) |
The water drips into a non sealed
container when it's being made with most plastic water distillers, and
it takes a long time to make, so you have an open container for 6 hours
before you get 1 gallon of water made. Fly's, bugs, dust, and everything
else can get in. I prefer my distilled water going into a nice clean sealed
container. |
|
|
| i) |
The plastic water distillers usually do not shut off untill all the
water has been distilled, causing the impurities to bake on the bottom,
and send their toxic fumes into your 'clean water' |

On most of the Precision water distillers,
they have a simple canister you simply fill with coconut charcoal. This
means very cheap maintenance, and if you have to, you can buy coconut charcoal
anywhere. Nothing proprietary here when it comes to a filter that
the water runs through. |
|
| a) |
The Precision water distillers unlike
the Polar Bear units, use the charcoal also as an air filter, eliminating
having to purchase new air filters |
|
|

Word of mouth opinion on a product.
Most dealers agree Precision water distillers are the highest quality water
distillers made today. |
|
|
| (4) |
Don't be fooled by companies that
offer 'price protection'. Because of the weight of a water distiller,
if you return one, you'll be looking at eating up the shipping fee's both
ways. And on top of that, some even charge a 10 percent restocking fee. |
|
|

Nothing produces as high of quality of water as a water distiller.
Water filter systems ability to filter water degenerate over the life span
of the filter, water distillers do not. The quality of the water
they produce at first, is not the same quality they will produce at 1/2
the filters life cycle. Reverse Osmosis systems performance can be
affected by variations in water pressure also. |

Maintenance of a Water Distiller
|
| (1) |
Simply drain the boiling tank on your water distiller once every week.
This is very easy, simply turn the easily accessable valve open, and let
it pour into a 1 gallon container |
|
|
| (2) |
Once a month, on average depending on your water conditions in your
area, you clean the boiling chamber on your water distiller with either
vinegar or descaler. If you have the auto drain accessory, you may
only need to descale the water distiller boiling chamber every 6 months. |
|
|
|
Cost of a Water Distiller
|
|
As you can see, vinegar is cheap, and a couple dollars worth of charcoal,
you'll have everything you need for a long time to keep a water distiller
running in top shape. We even give you a nice supply of commercial water
distiller descaler and charcoal with every water distiller purchase.
Water distillers are not a product where a salesman keeps making money
off of you by selling you expensive replacement filters and membranes for
eternity. That's where most reverse osmosis and other type of water
purification companies make their real money.
If you want the purest water! Get a water distiller! Many studies
are showing that bottled water is not as clean and pure as you want to
think it is.
