Benefits of Converting Water to Gas

Why you should convert water to gas? The most obvious reason is to save money because the price of oil in the world market is beyond our control. If gas is now a little over $4 per gallon, estimates show that this could reach $7 by the year 2010.

One way that the automotive industry is trying to shift away from this is by building hybrid vehicles. The Japanese first introduced this in the US market more than 10 years ago and it is only recently that US makers are trying to do the same thing.

But what are the other benefits of converting water to gas? Since water is clean, you don’t emit carbon monoxide into the air unlike gas or diesel fuels. You can feel proud that you are doing your share to keep the environment clean.

You get tax breaks from the government because this technology allows you to get refunds when you file your income tax.

As a car owner, you will still be able to use the warranty of your vehicle because the systems currently available do not void it in any way.

Just how much savings are we talking about? It depends on the type of vehicle you have and how often you have to be on the road. A ball park figure is 40-80% at the end of each month which translates to more than $1000 per year because you don’t have to fill up the tank every week.

The cost of installing such a system in your vehicle is very affordable. An instruction manual which you can find online will cost you less than $300 while the materials itself are under $250. Putting everything together will take you less than half a day and you don’t have to bring your vehicle to a shop.

Most of the products that allow you to convert water to gas turns ordinary water into HHO or hydroxy which happens to be more potent that gasoline. This increases the mpg or miles per gallon of your vehicle so you can go farther with just a tank of gas and a quart of tap water.

The biggest benefit is that it is safe. It will not cause any damage to your vehicle because it is merely an accessory that enhances the performance of your car’s engine.

Huge savings and environment friendly are the two benefits of converting water to gas technology. This of course is just the beginning because there are no 100% water powered cars yet in the market but you can sure that there are people already working on it so this can finally hit the streets.

Is converting water to gas something new? The answer is no because it has been around for 90 years. Auto makers never really explored it unlike the other industries which have used employed this.

Converting water to gas allows you to use water and gas to run your car. You just have to switch from one to the other similar to the hybrid cars that use gas and electricity since there is a rechargeable battery inside the vehicle.

Thousands of people have enjoyed the benefits of converting water to gas. You can do the same by buying a system and getting a return in your invest in less than 2 months.

Behind the Scene: How Water to Gas Technology Works

Water4Gas, runyourcaronwater, Fueltrips, drivewithwaterfuel, wam-a-bam. Sound familiar? These would be some of the sites that offer technology to run cars on Hydrogen (HHO or Brown’s Gas) which can also be called Hydroxy, that comes from water. These are the main water to gas players in the market nowadays. So how does this technology works?

Whenever you decide to upgrade to this system and decided to give one of these companies a call, they would never ask you to put water to your gas tank. Nor they will ask you to buy a new car with the water to gas engine. Actually, it’s very simple. You don’t have to change your engine or you car computer.

The water to gas conversion kit comes in with different part that can be easily assembled at home over the weekend. It only requires to use a few basic tools. The conversion kits major parts would be:

Electrolyzer (some call it "Hydrogen Generator"): these would be the containers (quart sized) can contain about 950cc of ordinary tap water or distilled water (based on the requirement of the manufacturer of the conversion kit). It could be glass, metal or plastic containers.

MAP Sensor Enhancer: this electronic device reduces fuel consumption without modifying the engine or the computer

Vaporizer: adds water vapour to the engine to cool it down, improves combustion and fuel economy.

Fuel Heater: pre-heats your gasoline for better gas economy, using only energy from the radiator that gets wasted otherwise, it requires no modifications done to the radiator or its hoses#

PCV Enhancer: another great companion to your hydrogen system that improves the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) function, protects your engine and saves gas.
Fuse holder + wiring. Connect to the 12 volts.

Vacuum T-connector: helps you splice the vacuum line for feeding the hydrogen and oxygen into the engine.

Catalyst: Ordinary baking soda.

Pure hydrogen is dangerous, especially storing it in large compressed amounts in containers. It can result into explosion, however water does not explode. That is why water to gas conversion kits do not use pure hydrogen. Since hydrogen is already compressed or present in water, it is safely and easily released and consumed. So when HHO is produced, the by-product left is water. No harmful chemicals are being emitted from this system. You just need enough space under the hood to place a quart sized jar to put the water and catalyst. Catalyst is the substance that helps the electricity separate water into HHO. Nothing will happen without this material. This system uses ordinary baking soda, you can easily grab it from the nearest grocery store or from your kitchen cabinet.

Water is converted into HHO gas using electricity from the car’s battery. The quart-sized water jar with a little bit of baking soda is placed under the hood. This device is connected with some fuse holder and wires to the car’s battery. It gets vacuum and electricity from the engine produces the HHO gas. The HHO gas is supplied to the carburaetor. The generator from your battery connects the device via the ignition switch. This prevents hydrogen production when the engine is off and uses less electricity.

Knowing how safe and easy to assemble to water to gas conversion kits provides us a view on an alternative way to save our trips to the pump. But always, it is very important whenever we’ll be using this system or any system at all that will help us economically, to follow the provided instructions and know the product that we’re going to purchase and use.
