How it works

Air in. Water out.

Spout is like having your own private spring on your countertop. It pulls moisture from the air around you, cleans and mineralizes it, and fills a pitcher with clean, alkaline water, up to 2.5 gallons a day. No pipes, no bottles, no delivery.
2.5 gal

6 stages
Of water filtration
~9.0 pH
Alkaline, mineralized
The short version
Three moves, start to pour.
01
Pulls moisture from the air
MERV-13 filter media cleans the incoming air, then a ceramic desiccant wheel captures the water vapor it carries.
02
Filters and mineralizes
Six stages of water filtration, then calcium and magnesium added back for taste and ~9.0 pH balance.
03
Fills the pitcher, fresh daily
Up to 2.5 gallons a day*. UV in the lid keeps it fresh between pours.

CERAMIC DESICCANT
Stage 01 · Capture
A ceramic sponge for water, not a cold coil.
Incoming air passes MERV-13 filter media and a MERV-7 carbon pre-filter first, so nothing airborne rides along. Then a ceramic desiccant wheel absorbs the moisture the air carries, a molecular sponge rather than the direct-coil condensation a dehumidifier relies on. It's how Spout keeps working even when the air is dry.
Hospital-grade MERV-13 filter media*
Spout's air intake combines high-efficiency media used in MERV-13 filters with a MERV-7 activated-carbon pre-filter.
*MERV-13 describes the primary filter media, a filtration level specified for many healthcare ventilation systems. Complete-machine filtration performance tested at MERV-11.
Stage 02 · Condense
The vapor becomes water.
The desiccant releases its captured moisture into a cool chamber, where it condenses into liquid water and collects, drop by drop. This is raw harvested water, clean of the contaminants that plague pipes and bottles, but not yet ready to drink. That's what the next stages are for.
Water harvested from air never touches old pipes, delivery trucks, or plastic. You can't filter out what was never there.

Stage 03 · Purify
Six stages between air and glass.
From the air intake to your glass, six stages stand between the room and the water: two air-filter stages, UV-C, a NASA-derived block, remineralization, and a final carbon polish.
01
Air pre-filter
MERV-7 carbon felt
Activated-carbon felt catches coarse airborne particles and odor on intake.
02
Air media
MERV-13 media
High-efficiency media captures fine airborne particles: dust, smoke, and pollen.
03
UV-C
UV-C light
UV-C light helps reduce biological activity in the flow.
04
NASA-derived
Sediment + bio block
A NASA-derived water-filter membrane blocks sediment and biological contaminants.
05
Minerals
Remineralize
Calcium and magnesium added back for taste and ~9.0 pH.
06
Taste
Granular carbon
A final granular-carbon stage polishes the taste.

SPRING-LIKE MINERALS
Stage 04 · Taste
Because stripped water tastes like nothing.
Stripped water alone tastes flat. Spout adds back calcium and magnesium, the same minerals a mountain spring picks up from rock, bringing the water to a smooth, alkaline ~9.0 pH. No chlorine, no plastic aftertaste. In our owner survey, 93% rated the taste good or excellent.

Five differences
Similar in concept. Different in every way that matters.
01
MERV-13 filter media keeps contaminants out of the machine.
02
A ceramic desiccant wheel absorbs water instead of direct-coil condensation.
03
Six-stage water filtration, including electropositive capture.
04
Remineralization for taste: calcium and magnesium.
05
UV in the pitcher lid keeps water fresh between pours.
How much you'll get
Warmer, more humid air means more water.
Output depends on your room. Most owners pour one to two half-gallon pitchers a day; a warm, humid room has real headroom above that. See the full production grid by temperature and humidity on the machine page.
