💧 4 Smart Ways to Reuse Air Conditioner Water
1. Use It in Your Iron
Since it’s naturally low in minerals and limescale-free, AC water is perfect for steam irons. Just collect it in bottles and store it for later.
2. Water the Right Plants
Use this water for plants that prefer low-mineral content—like succulents, azaleas, orchids, and hydrangeas. Avoid using it on plants that rely on nutrient-rich soil water.
3. Eco-Friendly Laundry Soap
Create a DIY laundry solution:
-
Mix AC water with Marseille soap flakes (about 3 tablespoons per bowl).
-
Stir until fully dissolved.
-
Use it in both machine and hand washing for a gentle, sustainable clean.
4. Rinse or Wash Your Hair
Heat the water slightly and use it to rinse or wash your hair. Since it’s free of limescale, it leaves hair feeling softer and shinier—especially helpful in areas with hard tap water.
💡 Final Tip
While air conditioner water is great for many uses, always clean your unit regularly to minimize the risk of bacteria or mold contamination. A well-maintained air conditioner not only runs more efficiently but also produces cleaner condensation water.
