Distilled water
High-purity water is collected from a separate distilled-water outlet for daily use.
The Solar Distillation Water Heater integrates solar heat collection, steam generation, steam transport, distilled water production through condensation, and condensation heat recovery for heating domestic water. It uses the same solar energy to produce high-purity distilled water while simultaneously heating domestic water, making it both an efficient solar water heater and a superior solar water purification system.

BiAGUA overcomes the limitations of conventional solar water heaters and electrical water purifiers, operating entirely at atmospheric pressure to efficiently produce distilled water and domestic hot water at the same time.
High-purity water is collected from a separate distilled-water outlet for daily use.
Recovered condensation heat helps warm domestic water for bathing, washing and cleaning.
Solar heat supplies both outputs, reducing dependence on purchased water and conventional water-heating energy.
A passive solar process reduces energy demand and disposable purification consumables.

Evacuated glass tubes capture sunlight and generate vapor. Stainless-steel conduits guide the vapor down to a condenser inside the insulated water tank. As distilled water forms, condensation heat is recovered to warm the surrounding domestic water. The two products leave through separate outlets.
Operating at atmospheric pressure, BiAGUA uses natural solar heating, evaporation and condensation. Its distillation process needs no electricity, filter cartridge, RO membrane, pump or anti-scaling chemical. Producing high-purity water at home can become more accessible and affordable; actual output and savings depend on local conditions.
Sunlight heats the water inside evacuated glass tubes. Vapor travels through stainless-steel conduits to an internal condenser, where distilled water forms and condensation heat helps warm domestic water.


Sunlight heats water in the evacuated glass tubes.
Water evaporates; vapor gathers above the water level.
Stainless-steel conduits carry vapor to the condenser.
Vapor forms distilled water as its released heat warms the tank.
Collect distilled water and draw domestic hot water from separate outlets.
Compare six tube configurations and indicative daily production. Output depends on sunlight, climate, inlet-water temperature and operating conditions.

Hot-water values assume 60,000 L/year heated from 20°C to 45°C at 90% efficiency. The total adds the value of 3,000 L/year of distilled water, estimated using 19 L bottled-water reference prices, to that market's hot-water estimate.

One passive solar technology supports household hot water and produces distilled water. Explore the design choices behind efficiency, simpler maintenance and a lower-plastic-contact water path.
Solar heat first generates vapor; condensation heat then contributes to warming domestic water.
Vapor condensation separates many dissolved salts and non-volatile substances from water. Test output before claiming drinking-water suitability.
The distillation process has no filter cartridge, RO membrane or anti-scaling chemical to replace.
Atmospheric-pressure operation and a vapor path without an external pump support simpler maintenance.
Glass tubes, stainless-steel vapor conduits and a stainless-steel condenser minimize plastic contact in the principal water-production path.
