Capturing Water From Dehumidifiers And Air Conditioners

I water my potted plants from the water I get from running the dehumidifier, which is more than you would think.

Sharon Self

I run a dehumidifier in my damp basement and empty it everyday--a little on each plant!

Cindy

I use the water from my air condition (window unit) that drips out to water my plants and fill the bird bath.
