ABSTRACT:
A movable water distiller capable of use in conjunction with a water heater includes a frame having a top which supports the water heater. The distiller components are supported on a tray having a guide assembly engaging a track assembly horizontally positioned in the bottom region of the frame. The guide assembly allows the distiller components to be inserted within, and extracted from, the frame interior while the track assembly maintains alignment of the tray. Alternatively, the guide assembly may be attached to the top surfaces of the track assembly. Paneling surrounds the sides and back of the frame, while a front cover is attached to the front of the tray. The front cover and the paneling enclose the interior of the frame and prevent access to the distiller components. A top cover having a base plate with a cut-out section, over which is placed a vertical member having an interior, is positioned on both the front cover and the top of the frame to provide protection for the conduits running from the distiller to the water heater. In a preferred embodiment, the tray supports a fluid sensor in operational connection with the control box. When the sensor detects a preselected quantity of fluid residing on the tray, the control box deactivates the distiller components.
