It is a old commercial product that I located used on craigslist. The mfgr markets aggressively so if you google "water distilling equipment" you will find multiple products available. The pure water unit that I have will produce about 4 1/2 gallons/24hrs. Output depends on ambient temperature and feedwater temperature. The problem with any still is there will be spills. I feed the still from a jug of raw water that is supplied by a small pump on an as required by the still demand. It works better when it is cold outside so I run the batch in the winter and the still is in one of the out buildings so spills are not a huge issue.

Study up on the different stills available and then start checking the "for sale" adds.
