What is the difference between the A10 and A20?

The 10-liter and 20-liter figures are daily production ratings at 30°C / 86°F and 80% relative humidity. They do not describe tank capacity, and they do not promise the same production in a cooler or drier room.

Can the A20 cover five U.S. gallons a day?

Five U.S. gallons is about 18.9 liters. The A20 is rated at up to 20 liters a day at 86°F (30°C) and 80% relative humidity. The difference is about 1.1 liters at the stated rating. Check the conditions in the room before relying on the unit to cover that daily need.

Start with the amount of water you want the unit to supply each day. Record the temperature and humidity where the unit will run, including when the air conditioning is on. Ask for performance data for the same model under comparable conditions. If the data is unavailable, keep another water source available to cover a shortfall.

  • 3 U.S. gallons (about 11.4 L). This is above the A10’s 10 L/day rating. Check the A20’s output under conditions similar to the room where it will run.
  • 5 U.S. gallons (about 18.9 L). This is close to the A20’s 20 L/day rating. Verify how much it can produce in the intended space before counting on that amount.
  • 6 U.S. gallons (about 22.7 L). This exceeds the A20’s rating at the stated conditions. Plan additional capacity if the unit needs to cover the entire demand.

Will an air-to-water generator work in my Hawaii home?

Start with temperature and humidity readings from the intended room. Hawaii’s mountains and exposure create different local climates; air conditioning can also reduce indoor humidity. The National Weather Service describes substantial differences between windward, leeward and elevated locations. An island-wide weather reading is not a measurement of your installation.

Record readings at several times during normal use, note whether air conditioning is running, and estimate your drinking-water need. Share those observations with AquaAloha before choosing a capacity.

What should I check before ordering?

Confirm the equipment revision, voltage, frequency, plug, circuit requirements and ventilation clearance. A factory brochure listing 220V / 50Hz does not establish compatibility with the unit you will receive in Hawaii.

  • Measure the available countertop or floor space, including ventilation clearance.
  • Identify whether hot and cold dispensing are necessary.
  • Ask for the exact cartridge layout and matching operating manual.
  • Confirm current stock allocation and delivery to your island and ZIP code.

Where can I find product videos and replacement information?

The equipment library contains A10 and A20 videos, photographs and English operating references. Videos show the referenced equipment in use; they do not establish daily output for your room. Use the manual and filter schedule that match your installed labels.
