Clean, safe drinking water for Central Valley California.

Reserve your spot

A local non-profit is giving families in the Central Valley solar water panels that create fresh drinking water at your home and deliver it directly to a tap inside your house.

$100 to refer a friend**
For a limited time, you will receive $100 every time you refer someone who is eligible and gets panels installed at their home.

Who is SOURCE?

SOURCE, based in Scottsdale, AZ, uses innovative solar-powered technology, called Hydropanels, to capture pure water molecules from the air and convert them into delicious, healthy drinking water.

Installed on the roof or on the ground, Hydropanels are independent of infrastructure and make, mineralize, and deliver drinking water into your home without plugging into an additional electric or water supply.

How Do Hydropanels Work?

The SOURCE Hydropanel is a technology that incorporates multiple patented inventions alongside proprietary trade secrets, making it a one-of-a-kind renewable water technology that uses the power of the sun to extract clean, pollutant-free drinking water from the air. Collected water is then mineralized for ideal composition and taste, making premium-quality drinking water a readily available resource.

Solar energy powers the panel completely off-grid

2

Fans draw in ambient air and push it through a hygroscopic, or water-absorbing material, that traps water vapor from the air

Icon

3

The water vapor is extracted and passively condenses into liquid that is collected in the reservoir

Minerals are added to make perfect drinking water

Sensors in each Hydropanel array allow SOURCE to monitor water quality and resolve issues remotely†

Hydropanel General Installation Requirements:

  • Sunny mounting location – The SOURCE Hydropanel works best in full sun. Unobstructed sunlight required at least 5 hours per day. Avoid placing under shading objects such as trees, buildings, etc.
  • 4 x 6 foot (1.2 x 1.8 meters) mounting area per Hydropanel.
  • Minimum clearance of 1ft (30cm) in front of and behind the panels to allow access for service.
  • Minimum 3 inches (8 cm) between hydropanels from side to side within an array.
  • SOURCE Hydropanels must be installed at least 15 feet (5 meters) away from windows and should be positioned considering hydropanel sound with respect to living spaces.
  • SOURCE Hydropanels must be level from side-to-side with a maximum deviation of 20mm.
  • Hydropanel must be South Facing (180°) for locations in the Northern Hemisphere, or North facing (0°) for locations in the Southern Hemisphere.
  • The installation surface must be level. For example, a flat roof, or level ground.
  • Roof mounted hydropanels must be at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from the edge of any structure.
  •  
  • Adequate structural integrity of the roof is required. Do not install on a roof that is damaged or otherwise insufficient to hold the weight and wind loads of the hydropanel.
  •  
  • Consider whether there is space for a crane to set up and lift the hydropanels to their mounting location.
  • Ground locations should be firm, level, and evenly composed. The hydropanel can be placed on blocks, concrete, or mounted to lumber to provide a stable base to sit on.
  •  
  • Consider factors like soil composition, and how to manage erosion or plant growth over time.
  •  
  • Avoid installing the hydropanel where they may be wetted from irrigation sprinklers.
  •  
  • Ensure the hydropanel is raised above the specified flood plain.
  •  
  • Hydropanel should be anchored to the ground or sufficiently ballasted to prevent movement or damage from high winds.
