Motorhome, Floating House, Mobile Home – to be separated from city life, to live far from civilization without constraints, everyone would like this… How is it possible to live independent of utilities close to nature by providing ourselves with a source of drinking water?
An increasingly common hobby is the camper van (RV) equipped with almost complete comfort, with which people set out to explore the world and enjoy an independent life. Instead of that freedom they usually spend the summer parked in huge campsites or wandering from one to the other, because the need for drinking water and electricity limits their freedom. How much better it would be – and usually staying in “nature” for less than 24 hours is also allowed by local regulations – to stop somewhere on the edge of a forest or along a coastal road and enjoy what nature has to offer.
Mobile homes can provide a more durable close-to-nature living space, which can be installed without a building permit, even in places where otherwise it would not be possible to build a residential house and there is no established public utility network. An even more romantic solution can be a houseboat or a floating house, which basically means a mobile home installed on a floating platform. The culture of house boating along rivers and canals is extremely popular and allows for a high degree of mobility, but boaters usually stay at designated berths at the end of the tour, similar to camping on land. The concept of floating houses has developed enormously in the past ten years, and more and more people choose the wonders floating on smaller or larger waters as their permanent home.
Until now, the provision of electricity and daily drinking water necessary to sustain life was the main constraint for the “nomads”. Over the past decade, the emergence and spread of advanced solar technologies has brought about a fundamental change in opportunities. Our electrical independence has thus been resolved, so staying in “island mode” does not mean giving up the usual comfort. The only problem is the provision of drinking water, because an own water system or desalination equipment with an RO filter is very expensive, consumes a lot of electricity and these devices are not suitable for filtering out harmful PFAS chemicals, plastic derivatives and hormones found in natural waters.
In today’s practice, the solution is almost exclusively to purchase PET bottled water, even though most nature lovers are aware that this is a necessarily bad, increasingly expensive and unsustainable solution in the long run.
It is so natural that we do not even think about the water around us. Yes, the vapor stored by the air can be our inexhaustible source of drinking water! Using the www.wizzwell.com revolutionary water production and treatment technology offered by AWG-Europe, anyone can provide an independent water source tailored to their needs (10 L/day – 5,000 L/day). We can no longer only be independent of the power grid, but we can also 100% meet our needs for a “nomadic” life in the 21st century.
