Is A2WH a Dew Catcher or Dew Condenser?
No dew condensers require a nighttime temperature that is either at or very close to the dew point. Our first generation night radiant condenser systems extended this so we could condense even when the dew point was 8F below the nighttime ambient. Even with these enhancements we found that we simply could not use that generation in a enough areas to deliver the desired impact. Another issue we found with the dew condenser systems is that they would work well during part of the year and then fail to deliver during the part of the year when they are needed the worst. The new solar thermal A2WH system was specifically designed to overcome the deployment issues which limited success of the dew condensers. As a result we can install it in a wide range of locations with a high degree of confidence that it would deliver water when it is needed. One of the benefits of this system is that it produces more water per square foot in many locations so even in locations where the dew condensers woul
