It took us a while to produce this video about how to install a DIY watermaker, as we wanted to really test out our installation and put it to the test.

We are absolutely delighted with our watermaker and the water production that we get out of it, especially at the price that we payed for it compared to of-the-shelf branded watermaker such as Ecotech, Spectra, rainman or aquabase watermakers.

In this video, Ryan explains how to install a DIY watermaker, that is a watermaker that you build from scratch with parts that you source yourself.

We go through what to think about before buying parts, how to power your watermaker, where to install it, how to buy all the parts for your watermaker, the tools that you will need to install your units and what to expect when you assemble all your parts.

Finally, we give you a tour of our own watermaker installation and analyze the results we get from it.
