Spout makes a countertop atmospheric water generator. It pulls moisture from the air in your kitchen and turns it into drinking water. The machine makes up to 2.5 gallons a day. It needs electricity, but no plumbing, bottles, or delivery.
Incoming air first passes through MERV-13 filter media. The collected water then goes through six filtration stages. Calcium and magnesium are added for taste. The finished water fills a pitcher on the machine. Spout estimates it uses 5 to 9 kWh of electricity per gallon, depending on climate.
Spout is built mainly for home kitchens. It also serves offices replacing water coolers, emergency preparedness, and off-grid setups with power. Third-party lab testing found no detectable PFAS, microplastics, lead, BPA, or arsenic in tested water. The company says about 30% of owners run their machines on solar.
Key benefits
No Bottles Needed
Water is made on site, so there are no plastic bottles or delivery runs.
Lab Tested Water
Third-party tests found no detectable PFAS, microplastics, or lead.
Works Without Plumbing
The machine only needs an electrical outlet to produce water.
Spout offers a household water source that does not depend on municipal pipes, delivery trucks, or single-use plastic bottles. Each machine can replace some bottled water purchases for a home or office. This may reduce plastic waste. The tradeoff is energy use, which Spout discloses. Owners on solar can offset that electricity demand.
