Is the water really safe to drink?

Q: Is the water really safe to drink?

A: Absolutely. In fact, it's often purer than traditional tap water. GENAQ water is created through a condensation process, followed by a multi-stage purification system that includes carbon filters and powerful UV-C light sterilization. This eliminates bacteria, viruses, and other impurities, resulting in fresh, great-tasting, and safe drinking water.

Q: What happens when the air is dry? Can it still produce water?

A: Yes. While production is highest in humid conditions, our advanced models are engineered to extract moisture efficiently even in lower-humidity environments. GENAQ units are designed for real-world conditions, ensuring a consistent water supply year-round.

Q: What's the main advantage over just using a water filter or bottled water?

A: The key advantage is source independence. A filter cleans existing tap water; bottled water is delivered. GENAQ creates a new, primary water source. This means:

· No plastic waste compared to bottled water.

· No dependence on municipal infrastructure, like with a filter.

· A resilient backup during emergencies or boil-water advisories.

Q: Is this technology environmentally friendly?

A: Yes, very. By using atmospheric water vapor—a renewable resource—GENAQ AWGs help reduce the strain on groundwater and surface water supplies. Furthermore, by eliminating the need for plastic bottles and the transportation associated with them, the carbon footprint is significantly reduced.
