## Description

Product description The only guaranteed way to get pure water is through steam distillation using a water distiller. Distilled water is 99.8% pure which means it is purer that any bottled or tap water and purer than using any other type of filtration or purification method. With a distiller water is gently boiled to kill off viruses and bacteria. The steam produced is captured in a stainless steel coil where it cools to form pure water. This is then passed through an activated charcoal filter to remove any trace impurities. Directions Manually fill the stainless steel chamber.5.5 hours later it will automatically shut-off when a gallon of pure water is distilled into the glass container. P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Safety Warning Keep out of reach from children. Use only on smooth, level surface. Make sure cords are fully inserted. Legal Disclaimer Item sold as is (brand new in original unopened box). See more

Review: I use it once a day to fill 2 of my air humidifiers
Review: We've had this little puppy for just over six weeks now, and my wife and I have used it daily since its arrival. We really love this distiller, and feel it's perfect for our needs. We simply set it up on our kitchen counter and let it run until the automatic shut-off pops (which works every time, and shuts off the instant the last drop of water has been distilled / evaporated). We purchased the unit to supplement an under-sink filter we installed that removes chlorine and other contaminants, yet leaves dissolved solids in the water. Only a distiller or Reverse Osmosis unit can do a good job of eliminating the solids (something that became important to me after I had a kidney stone, which is an adventure I do not want to repeat). After doing a great deal of research (that is, looking at other models' specifications and reading numerous online reviews) we settled on this model of counter-top distiller, and we couldn't be happier. It makes great tasting water, and in our case we don't even use the optional charcoal filter. Admittedly the use of pre-filtered water may be the reason we don't need to use the charcoal to (as some say) "polish the water" and improve the taste. In any event, the distilled water we get from the unit tastes great. We went with an under-sink filter (purchased separately) and distiller combination in place of a Reverse Osmosis (R/O) unit we had been using in our old home for the past 10 years as a better option for the apartment we recently moved into. On the whole we felt it would be too much of a production to hook up the R/O unit in the apartment, and we kinda missed distilled water anyway (which we used to drink over a decade ago when we had a bulkier, less "modern" unit). We're using a filter because (in our view) there are some contaminants that filters (good ones) are a little better at removing (oddly enough). The last distiller we had was a monster in size, and was a nightmare to clean due to its exposed heating coils (the coils sat in the water at the bottom of the tank). I love the fact this unit is as small as it is (it couldn't be any smaller and still hold one gallon of water), and that it is so easy to clean compared with the exposed coil type we used to have. We clean the unit's stainless steel chamber after each use by pouring in a small amount of vinegar and letting it soak for an hour or so. A quick brushing with a dish brush followed by a rinse, and it's ready to go again. You don't have to clean the unit after each use if you want to immediately make another gallon -- we just choose to do it that way to avoid any significant build-ups of solids. As for the noise of the fan, we don't find it too loud at all. To us it's no louder than our dishwasher, and we hardly notice it. If it was an issue we'd simply run it in our laundry room by setting it on top of our dryer (which is where we store it if we're not using it to avoid taking up kitchen cabinet space). The glass collection container is great (you really don't want to place distilled water, which is also called "hungry water" because it has no dissolved solids in it and will rapidly leach chemicals from plastic containers as a result) in anything other than glass or stainless steel. If you do store distilled water in plastic you'll find the water quickly tastes like the plastic it has been stored in -- which means you're drinking the chemicals leached from the plastic, a known health hazard. So as you can tell, we're delighted with the unit, and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants an easy, fool-proof way to make high-quality distilled water right at home. If you've ever had kidney stones, then distilled water (in my view) is definitely the way to go. Some evidence has shown the tap water can add to the mineral composition of kidney stones and/or increase the risk of susceptible individuals developing kidney stones. Many practitioners recommend distilled water (which is water in its purest form with no dissolved solids) as both a treatment and a preventive measure. In my view, you really can't go wrong with this little device. It's quick, easy, and simple to set up and use -- and at this point we'd rather not drink anything else. We're so hooked on the great, clean taste of the water that we take it with us (in stainless steel bottles we also bought on desertcart.com) wherever we go -- even to restaurants, which generally serve city (tap) water with all its usual contaminants. If you do purchase one of these units, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much electric does it take to make one gallon of water?**
A: I used a watt meter, it cost between 35 cents to 50 cents for 5.5 hours per gallon, at the most expensive it will cost 50 cents at worst, if your electricity rate is very high.  What I do is I pour boiling water into the pot first (because I have a gas stove), which saves 40 minutes from producing 1 gallon.  I made a video on helpful tips here on YouTube  https://youtu.be/DCmespGh_AQ

**Q: 1) Is the water, at any time, in contact with plastic? 2) Would it be appropriate to add liquid minerals so one is not depleted of minerals?**
A: While the water is funneled through a glass insert, the outlet on the glass insert is shorter than the plastic outlet, so as the water drips from the glass insert, it contacts the plastic funnel outlet briefly.  Also, on the inside of the distiller, the stainless steel tube the steam rises up through has a non-metallic gasket that some water may contact and drip back into the distiller tank.

**Q: Does this distiller remove fluoride from the water?**
A: I do not have a fluoride tester but the research I have done says it does.Sodium Fluoride's Melting point is 993 °C (1,819 °F; 1,266 K), and its Boiling point is 1,704 °C (3,099 °F; 1,977 K)Calcium Fluoride's Melting point is 1,418 °C (2,584 °F; 1,691 K), Boiling point is 2,533 °C (4,591 °F; 2,806 K)In short the Distiller does not have the heat required to boil the Fluoride in water.

**Q: How often you need to change the filter(s)? How much does the filter(s) cost? and how many filters does this machine have? Charcoal & another filter?**
A: The manufacturer recommends changing the filter every 30 gallons.  We sell a 12 pack of filters for $14.95.  The unit comes with six filters.  It just has this one filter.
