Use your refrigerator to dry the air in your house.
Pull the condensate out of the drip pan with a small
positive-displacement pump.

CY: I presume you scrubbed the drip pan and sterilized it? Most drip pans
are very dirty, and grow mold and such.

Use the resulting distilled
water for plants or to fill your car battery or any
non-critical application like that.

CY: With the mold and growth, I don't think it would be very suitable.

A small microcomputer can determine the level in the
tray and cycle the pump at the proper times.

CY: Does that cost more than the jug of distilled that I use, each couple of
years? What's the delivery rate? Couple ounces a day?



A second tube near the top of your secondary reservoir
automatically drains the excess back into the drip pan
so it can be vaporized.

CY: What about dehumidifying? So, you're advertising dehumidify, and you
revaporize water?

Warm or cool, the dryer air will make your house more
comfortable, less likely to support mold or mildew.

CY: Except that most of the water is revaporized.

The free distilled water will save money, too.

CY: How much distilled do you use? You do realize that refrigerator water
can contain dust, and mold, and a lot of other junk? I think that the idea
is ill advised, and far too complicated.

CY: Well, my distilled water bill is about two dollars a year. How many
years, at two dollars a year, will that be? And, does your gadget use
electricity? If so, sounds like a loser.
