Watermill pulls drinking water from thin air

Filed under: Household

Sure we’ve seen glorified dehumidifiers like this before, but we’re a sucker for any aquatic wonder which claims to solve the world’s drinking water shortage. The wall-mounted Watermill from Element Four is the latest “water from thin air” contraption and produces up to 3.2 gallons of water a day, pumped through a trusty ultraviolet sterilizer. But more importantly, it offers to hydrate your family of 6 for a mere thirty-five cents a day in power, not including whatever price Element Four decides to sell it for. Or you could just stick a bucket on your roof and be done with it — we hear it rains occasionally.
