Recycle Air Conditioning Water Condensation
The condensation from your air conditioner can produce a lot more water than you might realize. Instead of allowing that water to be lost, you can convert your air conditioner yourself to recycle that water. Recycled water from your air conditioner can be used for all sorts of things, including watering your household plants, cleaning your floors, or even watering your entire garden! Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Locate the discharge pipe on your air conditioner. This pipe carries the condensation from the air conditioner and usually empties into a drain or an outside line.
2. Disconnect the pipe from the drain or outside line.
3. Place the end of the disconnected pipe into a large bucket or rain barrel instead. Be sure to place the bucket or rain barrel below the point where condensation exits the air conditioner. That way, gravity will be able to bring the water to the bucket or rain barrel; otherwise, you'll need to use a pump.
4. Allow the condensation from your air conditioner to run into the bucket or rain barrel.
