Water distillers are endowed with the task to provide ultra pure water to get people rid of the insipid, murky and fishy tap water at a relatively cheap price. Various models of water distillers operating on electricity rule the market.
Let us have an overview of some unique water distillers. An exciting concept in the arena of water distillers is solar water distiller. Solar stills as they are called are topped up with water. Sun rays are granted access into the still and they are in turn trapped inside the still. The resultant intense heat generated inside the still eliminates all pathogens in water. Water starts evaporating inside and the pure vapors formed start settling on the glass of the still where they condense back to water. The glass is tilted towards the south inclined towards a trough. Water accumulated on the glass surface is made to run towards the trough and get collected inside it. The collected water is released from the trough through tubing made of silicone and is stored in canisters of five gallon. Solar stills exclusively functions based on the solar energy and contains no electrically operated components.
The solar water distiller is manufactured of parts that are readily available, durable in nature and can sustain themselves in the most hostile natural conditions with minimum maintenance and upkeep cost. Solar still is capable of bailing out minimum three gallons of distilled water in summer season whereas during winter it tends to output half of it depending on sun's intensity.
Anyway, water distillers yield 99.9 % pure and delicious water. This may prove revolutionary in the lives of those people who have been exposed over years to the feel, flavor and odor of tap water in variegated forms other than just drinking water. The faculty of smell and taste get stunned by the surprisingly refreshing feel of distilled water which has got accustomed to the insipid, fishy aura of tap water in numerous avatars like cold drinks, bathing water etc.
Water distillers does not deprive the body of essential minerals contained in tap water, as the miniscule proportion dissolved in tap water can easily be compensated by diets and supplements. Distilled water does not leach away essential minerals from the body by preventing their bonding with minerals present in tap water. It strengthens the internal organs by saving them from chemical contaminants in water. Additionally, water distillers tend to preserve environment by saving it from the menace of plastics.
