Hydrologic ARCS System
Automated Reclaimed Condensate System for Hydroponics & Greenhouses
The Hydrologic ARCS system (automated reclaimed condensate system) allows growers to capture extremely pure and healthy water safely and efficiently from the air in their growing environment. The Hydrologic ARCS system is ideal for hydroponics or greenhouse growers that use environmental equipment like Air Conditioning or DeHumidifiers for grow rooms or greenhouses. These types of growing appliances remove moisture as water vapor from the air through the coils they use to remove humidity or heat. Typically, this water goes down the drain via condensate discharge tubing.

More recently CEA (controlled environment agriculture) growers operating sealed growing environments have started to save the condensate water to reapply when it’s time to refill hydroponic reservoirs or watering barrels–often with mixed results due to inconsistencies in the final quality of the water after it’s gone through the appliance, tubing and finally into a capture or holding tank.
The Hydrologic ARCS system improves this water and money saving process.
It’s quite possible to keep re-using the same water over and over again in a well sealed and managed growing environment. All types of gardens will further benefit from the application of pure, healthy and living water. As a management tool, it’s also a great way to monitor crop health and uptake–by simply checking the capture tank since last watering or measurement.

The Problem:
Condensate water is low in pH, contains harmful heavy metals and can harbor pathogens and bacteria. Condensate water should never be used for any purpose without proper treatment.
The Solution:
The Hydrologic ARCS system works with any application that creates condensate water such as air conditioners and dehumidifiers, and successfully reclaims and purifies the condensate water that would normally go down the drain.
The product water from the ARCS is perfectly pH balanced, ultra-low PPM and completely free of contaminants, pathogens and bacteria.
ARCS product water can then be used for any application requiring pure water and is ideal for horticulture.
