Health, Optimum Wellness, Optimum Longevity!"
Steam Distilled Water is the optimum choice for
optimum health, optimum wellness and optimum longevity!
Pure, clean, water is one of the most essential requirements your body needs, for optimum health. Next to the air you breathe, the water you drink, and its' purity, is a critically important "choice" in your daily life.
Your body is comprised of about 70% water. You hear it all the time, you need to drink at least 8 glasses of water every day. But do you really know what's in the water you're drinking? While many people choose bottled water thinking that they are making the healthiest choice, few people realize that unless their bottled water is "steam distilled water," that they may be making a very unwise, and unhealthy choice. Note: each person daily requirement of drinking water varies from person to person.
If you think about it, an "average" person drinking 8 glasses of water every day, drinks about 12,000 gallons over their lifetime! Shouldn't the water you drink be the cleanest, purest water available?

Steam Distilled Water - the way nature intended!
Nature’s primary purification method in the hydrology cycle is "distillation" which includes both evaporation and condensation. nature's water cycle separates pure, fresh water from its contaminants during the hydrologic cycle. During this natural cycle, water evaporates up into the atmosphere becoming clouds and when the evaporated water becomes too heavy, it condenses "falling" back to the earth as precipitation or rain.
Steam
distillation combined with carbon filtration is the optimum water
"purification" technology that is superior to all others,
including water filters and reverse osmosis systems. Steam distillation
provides the most complete reduction of the widest range of contaminants
of all water purification technologies. Steam distillation removes
biological, inorganic and organic elements, including heavy metals,
chemicals and bacteria. Steam distillation systems typically
provide water that is 99% free of impurities, including heavy metals and most chemicals.
Steam distillation the optimum treatment for removing biological contaminants including
Giardia and Cryptosporidium.
Steam distillation "kills" all forms of microorganisms, including bacteria,
parasites, viruses and other harmful pathogens and microorganisms.
These harmful products/contaminants are NOT evaporated into the
steam distillation unit, but remain in the primary boiling container and
cleaned out after the steam distiller completes its cycle and cools
off. Our steam distillation systems also have an "activated carbon" post filtration
filter which provides the last step of the steam distillation process,
as well as a a venting system for removing pesticides and volatile organic
compounds - also known as VOCs. Steam distillation provides consistent
and optimum water purity.
Optimum Health, Optimum Wellness!
Few people remember most of their high school biology - so here's a reminder.... the water you drink is responsible for a wide variety of functions in your body after you drink it. This includes carrying nutrients such as oxygen to your body's cells. The water you drink cushions your joints and hydrates your skin. The water you drink helps convert food into energy. The water you drink removes toxins and wastes. The water you drink helps your body's natural healing process and optimizes your overall health! So it only stands to reason that if your drinking water is not as pure as it could be, your body will not function at an optimum level.
The problems with water filters
While water filters and water filtration systems may remove bad
taste, odor, and some contaminants in your home's water, water filters
will not remove; arsenic, bacteria, chemicals, chlorine, copper, lead, nitrates, parasites, sodium
or viruses.
In fact, water filters can become a breeding ground for bacteria. This is due to the fact that after the organic materials are collected in the water filter, they immediately begin to decay and break down.
Another
problem with water filters is knowing when to replace the filter. Some manufacturers suggest replacing
water filters too often, so they can sell more filter, or suggest changing the
water filters when bad tastes or odors return. The fact is, every community's
water supply is different from every other community's water supply, and water
filters are a poor choice for your drinking water when compared to "steam
distilled water.!"
The problems with Reverse Osmosis Systems
Reverse Osmosis (or "RO") water systems force water, under high pressure, through a
filtration system containing a synthetic semi-permeable membrane for reducing inorganic minerals.
Reverse osmosis systems use an inordinate amount of water, in fact,
"wasting" a large amount of water. Some reverse osmosis water
systems "waste" 7 gallons of water, to produce 1 gallon of purified
water. Reverse osmosis systems vary widely in terms of quality and
effectiveness, in their ability to reject contaminants. An RO's performance is affected by
a number of external, uncontrolled factors, including; water pressure, water temperature,
the pH of the water, bacteria, dissolved minerals, dissolved solids and the chemicals
of the home's tap water. RO systems are also subject to other water filtration
devices, including clogging/build-up of the RO system by the contaminants, which
may also lead to bacterial growth.
Why Steam Distilled Water is the Natural Choice for Optimum Health!
Again, this bears repeating....... a home steam distillation unit mimics mother
nature’s hydrology cycle. The hydrology cycle's primary purification
method uses distillation (called evaporation) and condensation to separate pure, fresh water from its contaminants.
The hydrologic cycle begins when Earth's water evaporates, condenses, then falls to the
ground as precipitation, or rain. Steam distillation, combined with carbon filtration, is the one water treatment technology that most completely reduces the widest range of contaminants, including biological, organic and inorganic elements.
What
is Reverse
Osmosis Desalination?
Reverse
Osmosis Desalination (RO and ROD) also known as seawater reverse
osmosis (SWRO) is a process that removes large
molecules and ions - typically from seawater or ocean water, by the application
of pressure to the sea water (or ocean water) when it is on one side of a
selective "membrane" or filter. The end result is that the large
molecules, ions and pollutants are retained on the pressurized side of the
membrane and the purified sea water or ocean water is allowed to pass to the
other side - normally to the community's citizens.
Reverse
Osmosis Desalination is primarily used in a city or community's water
supply by desalinating; sea water, ocean water, or the water from lakes,
underground aquifers or recharge wells. The water is desalinated by reverse
osmosis by removing the large molecules, ions, salts and other contaminants from
the water molecules.
The Reverse
Osmosis Desalination process is very similar to "membrane
filtration" except that there are significant differences between Reverse
Osmosis Desalination and membrane filtration. The primary removal
mechanism in membrane filtration is straining, or "size exclusion"
which can - in theory - achieve perfect exclusion of the particles (pollutants)
regardless of operational parameters such as influent pressure and
concentration. Reverse
Osmosis Desalination involves a diffusive mechanism so that separation
efficiency is dependent on the solute concentration, pressure and water flux
rate.
In a city or community's Reverse
Osmosis Desalination plant, the sea water (or water from other sources)
first enters the membrane filters or cartridge filters which removes the
pollutants and particulate matter. From there, the water is pressurized to
approximately 1,000 pounds per square inch. The high pressure forces some of the
water in through the reverse osmosis membranes and is commonly referred to as
desalinated or RO water - or simply "product" - is sent to the city or
community's water mains and water towers for use by the community. The remainder
of the water is rejected as brine and normally disposed in an underground
injection well.
About us:
The founder of the Renewable Energy Institute (REI) was first involved in Net Zero Energy buildings and Solar Trigeneration sm energy system in 2001 - 2002. This started with family-owned real estate developments in Northern and Southern California. This interest was accelerated when REI's founder was introduced to the President of a solar company in Los Angeles and their client, the Audubon Nature Center at Deb's Park (Los Angeles) that was planning to build a new 5,000 sf office and conference center. Except, the new building for the Audubon Nature Center was about 1/2 mile from the end of the power lines and a very costly extension of the power lines to their new facility forced them to consider a solar solution. When the Audubon Nature Center's new 5,000 sf office and conference center was completed in 2003, the facility not only featured the Solar Trigeneration sm energy system - they were awarded one of the first Platinum LEED Awards by the USGBC - and the powerlines were still 1/2 mile away! To this day, 100% of the power and energy for the Audubon Nature Center's building is supplied by the Solar Trigeneration sm energy system - whether at 12 noon, or 12 midnite. (The Audubon's facility also includes a battery energy storage system for back-up power generated by the Rooftop PV panels as well as a thermal energy storage system that stores the excess hot water generated by the evacuated tube collectors).
These early projects led to more client inquiries and engagements with real estate developers, architects and building owners in Southern California, Louisiana and Texas and the advent of a growing Net Zero Energy industry along with Solar Cogeneration sm & Solar Trigeneration sm energy systems. This culminated in a family-owned 200 (Net Zero Energy) home real estate development in Desert Hot Springs which has been approved but not yet constructed.
During this time, the REI's Founder became a volunteer and Advisor to the University of Texas' Solar Decathlon Competition. He coordinated the donation of the same solar thermal system used at the Audubon Nature Center's facility in Los Angeles, for UT's entry in the 2002 Solar Decathlon Competition in Washington, D.C. UT's entry in the Solar Decathlon Competition placed 1st in the domestic hot water competition that year (2002) and 4th overall, out of 20 universities that had entered.
In 2006, after Hurricane Kattrina devastated New Orleans, the REI was formed and several of the REI's board members and a Professor from the University of Texas School of Architecture formed a design team to enter the Brad Pitt/Global Green Rebuild New Orleans Competition. Our entry also focused on sustainable building solutions and materials as well as the Net Zero Energy concepts, incorporating once again, a Solar Trigeneration sm energy system.
Today, the REI "Flagship" has chartered the Renewable Energy Institute in Florida, with discussions to open REI state chapters in Arizona, California, Hawaii, Minnesota and Oregon.
The REI supports greater use of Net Zero Energy systems by architects, builders, homeowners and owners of commercial buildings. This includes "upgrading" homes and commercial buildings to Net Zero Energy. The REI provides Net Zero Energy; advertising, business development, conferences, e-commerce, education, marketing, online marketing, public relations, renewable energy, sales and strategic marketing solutions for architects, builders, cities, colleges, HVAC contractors, Net Zero Energy developers, real estate developers and universities.

“spending
hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars every year for oil,
much of it from the Middle East, is just about the single stupidest thing that
modern society could possibly do. It’s very difficult to think of anything
more idiotic than that.”

Director of the CIA
Price of Addiction ### to Foreign Oil |
According to R. James Woolsey, for Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, “The basic insight is to realize that global warming, the geopolitics of oil, and warfare in the Persian Gulf are not separate problems — they are aspects of a single problem, the West’s dependence on oil."
We support the Renewable Energy Institute by donating a portion of our profits to the
