Domestic
Series FAQ
Q.
How much water can it maker?
A. From 1-55 liters per hourpending on temp and RH.
Q.
What is the range in temp and humidity?
A. On electric model ; 6C and 30%. On Natural gas 1c and 25%RH
Q.
Is it automatic?
A. Yes you can set the mode switch to Auto and the machine self
starts and stops the water making mode when conditions are not
desirable and switch to heat when required.
Q.
What happens in Heat mode?
A. The machine will not make water when engaged in a heat cycle.
This cycle is governed by the operator in the settings available.
E.g. some people may want the heat cycle on at a higher temp than
others.
Q.
Can you make water in cold conditions?
A. Yes but not on Auto mode as this mode will turn the machine
automatically onto heat mode as require and stop any water making
ability as the Relative outside temperature
drops.
Q.
How can I make water in Cold conditions?
A. Turn Machine to water maker only. The machine if able will
make water down to 44F or 7C on electric and 4C on Gas. The machine
will not be able to heat the house.
Q.
Can I have the Air Conditioner only engaged?
A. Yes.
Q.
Can it be zoned?
A. Yes at very little cost. Simple dampeners are used in Zones
as apposed to whole air handlers and more chillers in side passage.
Typical zones in a large house like say 3 zones in a 600 sq meter
house would consist of say a 4 tone, a 3.2 tone and a 2.5 tone
units amounting to considerable expense of upwards of 3 separate
systems. The Never Dry air water maker remains the same unit.
A small cost would be added for the controller to handle 2 or
more zones. These zones are controlled by thermostats supplied
Q. What's the difference between
the Never Dry system and ducting for a standard central air zoned
system?
A. We make water; we require intake air from the outside not inside
the roof. ;We require and exhaust duct for unwanted air that has
been run through the machine but is not required to air con a
house. The machine will always exhaust air as it uses more air
than is required to Air Con a large house. The only exception
is on air con only mode. The fan slows down to the required pressure
in the house to air con only.
Q.
Are there Filters?
A . Yes air filters only but water filter can be easily added
if required.
Q.
What Voltage is it?
A. 3 phase 80-amp Australian Voltage and phase is required. Generally
found in most house holds requiring central air conditioners.
Q.
What is the advantage over all other air conditioner systems?
A. It's water making capacity. There also is little increase in
cost to air condition larger homes or clusters of homes. The system
adjusts automatically to Relative Humidity and Temperature. i.e.
Dewpoint.
Q.
Can it be powered by gas?
A. The best and most economical is natural gas geo thermally cooled.
It can co generate and be used for heating hot water, floor systems,
making water, hot and cold air ; all at not any extra costs in
running. About 70% of the cost of running electric. Initial capital
cost is double electric version. No change to Air Handler~water
maker design. Makes water in larger envelope of RH and temps due
to ability to chill cooling water to lower temps.
Q.
How much time to install a typical system?
A. About 25% LONGER than a single zone central air conditioner,
25% LESS than a 2 zone unit and 40% LESS than a 3 Zone unit.
Q.
Warranty time?
A. 12 Months

Expansion tank - demo only. 2. Typical electric
Chiller exposed without covers. 4. Area in front
3. ducting for demo only stored for shipping
in area 4, exhaust duct for processed air when not required. Cables
are electric from generator. One only required. 5.
Pink gas tank not included

1.
Insulated expansion tank. It may or may not be required depending
on how far apart 2. chiller is from 3.
air handler. This is the Installer’s decision. 3. Water
manufactured outlet to lead to rain water tank.
