Abstract: An Air conditioning and potable water generating system in which a cooling element condenses water from atmospheric air is operable two switch between an air conditioning mode, in which cooled atmospheric air from which water has been extracted is supplied to a building's interior environment, and a water generating mode, in which communication of such supply air into the building interior is closed off. The system can thus be operated to collect water regardless of whether cooling of the building interior is required at a particular point in time. Use of the same cooling element in each mode provides and use of return air from the building to mix with incoming fresh air and cool the heat dissipating element of the cooling system make for efficient operation. Controls of the system are operable to change a mixture ratio of the fresh atmospheric air and circulating return air.
