ABSTRACT:
A water distiller assembly which provides for an efficient distillation process wherein steam generated in a boiling chamber is delivered to a steam condensing chamber where steam condensation is carried out by the combined effect of water cooling and air cooling. The resulting distilled water is stored in the steam condensing chamber where it is kept hot by the incoming steam for hot serving while at the same time helps in condensing the steam it comes into contact with. Water vapor emanating from the surface of the hot coolant water is also condensed and collected. Operating temperature of the coolant water may be adjusted to suit room temperature demands. The distillation process is made automatic, continuous and self-limiting by the use of two simple float controls and a thermostatic water outlet valve. The essential components comprise a cooling tank with its bottom half immersed in the space contained by a condensing chamber; a heating element and a boiling chamber resting on a bracket support such that feed water is supplied from the cooling tank to the boiling chamber via a connecting conduit and such that the respective water levels in the cooling tank and boiling chamber are maintained at the same level; a cover and a water collecting trough on top of the cooling tank serve to collect extra distilled water and the water is drained to the condensing chamber via a vertical conduit.
