This is why many people don’t throw away air conditioner water. You can’t imagine how many ways it can be useful to you. With the techniques we show you, not only do you not waste this precious resource but you also get benefits.
Air conditioning water, this is why it is a precious resource
Summer has arrived and the high temperatures force us on a few days to keep the air conditioners on 24 hours a day. You will know very well that these machines have a drain pipe through which to expel the excess water that forms due to the principle of evaporation and condensation.
Water is a precious gift, an asset of inestimable value but too often taken for granted. You can’t imagine how many liters of water we waste every day. Do you know, for example, that when we brush our teeth and leave the tap open we are throwing away 8 liters of water per minute?

For example, did you know that you can reuse air conditioner water in many different ways? We give you some ideas.

Have you ever wondered why air conditioners produce water? Air conditioning works by means of mechanisms that cool the air. There are two processes involved in the production of this liquid: condensation and evaporation.
