| 6/19/26 | ![]() Water From Thin Air: How HVAC Technology Could Help Solve Water Scarcity | What if the air around your home could become a reliable source of clean water? In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Brian Chang, CEO and founder of Aquaria — the company building atmospheric water generators that turn humidity into clean, drinkable water.We explore:• How Aquaria’s systems produce water from air using principles HVAC pros already understand• Why water scarcity is becoming a growing concern in communities across the country• How mechanical contractors could play a key role in installing and supporting this emerging technology• What makes air-to-water systems different from standard dehumidification• Why homeowners are using air water for drinking, cooking and even showering• How this innovation could help in urgent situations like the current water crisis in Corpus ChristiBrian and Clifton break down how a standalone outdoor unit can produce up to 250 gallons of water a day, connect to a home's existing plumbing, and deliver filtered, high-quality water on demand. Whether you’re a contractor, engineer or simply an interested student, this conversation offers an eye-popping look at where the trade is heading.Learn more about Aquaria by reaching out to Brian directly on LinkedIn.#HVAC #Innovation #ESCO #ESCOInstitute--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------🎥 This Week’s Video is Brought to You By Our Amazing Sponsors!A huge THANK YOU to this week’s sponsors for supporting education and excellence in the HVACR industry! 👇💨 Daikin Comfort – https://daikincomfort.com/ @DaikinComfort Delivering comfort, efficiency, and innovation through advanced HVAC technology.🏫 Lincoln Tech – https://www.lincolntech.edu/ @LincolnTech Training the next generation of skilled HVACR professionals through hands-on career education.🧰 NAVAC – https://navacglobal.com/ @NAVAC Revolutionizing the HVACR service industry with smart, efficient, and reliable tools for technicians.⚙️ Amatrol – https://amatrol.com/ @Amatrol Providing world-class technical training systems that empower students and instructors in the skilled trades.🌎 A-Gas – https://www.agas.com/ @a-gas8684 Leading the way in sustainable refrigerant lifecycle management and environmental responsibility.👏 Thank you to all our sponsors for supporting education, innovation, and growth in the HVACR industry!#HVACTechnician #HVACTraining #LincolnTech #NAVAC #Amatrol #AGas #HVACCommunity #TradeEducation #HVACInnovation #HVACR #Refrigeration #Technology #FutureOfHVACR #EcoFriendly #ContinuousEducation #StayCurrent | 26m 58s | ||||||
