The company has four U.S. patents issued and numerous
international patents granted around the world. The
company’s philosophy is to vigorously protect
and defend these patents and other intellectual property
rights through all legal remedies available. The company
anticipates vigorously pursuing litigation against
infringers in the future as it becomes aware of these
infringements and other violations of its intellectual
property rights.
Air2Water LLC would like to place any
individuals or companies who are manufacturing
or distributing atmospheric water generations
machines that infringe upon our patent
rights on notice, that not only have we
been successful in our legal actions against
others who have infringed upon our rights,
we are and will aggressively seek action
against any entities who infringe upon
these patent rights. Please be aware that
if you are in the business of manufacturing
or distributing atmospheric water generation
equipment that infringes upon our patents
we will commence legal action and seek
damages and relief arising from your infringement
on our patent rights.
United States federal law. 35 U.S.C.
271 defines infringement as "whoever
without authority makes, uses, offers
for sell or sells any patented invention,
within the United States during the term
of the patent therefore, infringes the
patent." or equivalent therefore.
Infringement can be direct, indirect,
or contributory. Anyone who makes, uses,
or sells the patented invention is a direct
infringer. If a person actively encourages
another to make, use, or sell the invention,
the person so inducing is liable for indirect
infringement. Contributory infringement
can be committed by knowingly selling
or supplying an item for which the only
use is in connection with a patented invention.
Good faith or ignorance is no defense
for direct infringement, but it can be
for indirect or contributory infringement.
Knowingly infringing on a patented his
willful infringement and subject of triple
damages and legal fees and maybe punitive
damages (see below).
271. Infringement of patent
Release date: 2005-10-11
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this
title, whoever without authority makes,
uses, offers to sell, or sells any patented
invention, within the United States or
imports into the United States any patented
invention during the term of the patent
therefore, infringes the patent.
(b) Whoever actively induces infringement
of a patent shall be liable as an infringer.
(c) Whoever offers to sell or sells within
the United States or imports into the
United States a component of a patented
machine, manufacture, combination or composition,
or a material or apparatus for use in
practicing a patented process, constituting
a material part of the invention, knowing
the same to be especially made or especially
adapted for use in an infringement of
such patent, and not a staple article
or commodity of commerce suitable for
substantial noninfringing use, shall be
liable as a contributory infringer.

and numerous international patents granted
around the world. Our US Patent numbers
are as follows:
Patents
US Patent Number 5,669,221
Abstract: A portable, potable-water generator for producing high-purity liquid water by condensation of dew from ambient air. The generator employs filtration subsystems to remove particulates and aerosols from the incoming air. An enclosed heat absorber cools the filtered air to its dew point and collects droplets of condensate into a closed system. The collected dew is further continually treated in a bacteriostat loop to destroy adventitious living organisms and to filter out undesirable and dangerous contaminants. All the subsystems are failsafe-interlocked to disable the generator immediately and prevent delivery of water if any one of them stops functioning within predetermined safe limits. US Patent Number 5,845,504
Abstract: A portable, potable-water generator for producing high-purity liquid water by condensation of dew from ambient air is described. The generator employs filtration subsystems to remove particulates and aerosols from the incoming air. An enclosed heat absorber cools the filtered air below its dew point and collects droplets of condensate into a closed system. The collected liquid dew is further continually treated in a bacteriostat loop to destroy adventitious living organisms and to filter out undesirable and dangerous contaminants. US Patent Number 6,058,718
Abstract: A portable, potable-water generator for producing high-purity liquid water by condensation of dew from ambient air. The generator employs filtration subsystems to remove particulates and acrosols from the incoming air. An enclosed heat absorber cools the filtered air to its dew point and collects droplets of condensate into a closed system. The collected dew is further continually treated in a bacteriostat loop to destroy adventitious living organisms and to filter out undesirable and dangerous contaminants. All the subsystems are fail safe-interlocked to disable the generator immediately and prevent delivery of water if any one of them stops functioning within predetermined safe limits.
