A portable water distiller having an insulated container for raw water and a removable cover for the container with a low pressure seal which engages the container wall. A condenser coil is provided in the cover along with a motor-driven fan, and inlet and outlet ports are provided about the periphery of the cover to allow cooling air to be drawn into the cover over the condenser coils and motor. An inlet tube connected to the condenser coil receives steam from the container generated by a heater connected to the container bottom.

A water distiller comprising: a container for receiving raw water and a base for supporting the container on a flat surface, a heating plate secured to the bottom of the container for boiling raw water in the container, a shell spaced from and surrounding the container and defining with the container an insulating chamber about the container, a cover having a bottom wall for closing the container when the cover is mounted on the top of the container, said cover having an imperforate top wall for preventing extraneous matter from falling into it from above, said top wall being spaced from said bottom wall to define an insulating chamber above the container when said cover is on the container, a partition mounted in the cover and spaced from the outer wall of the cover to define an outer chamber and an inner chamber in the cover, openings in the cover sidewall communicating with the outer chamber and the inner chamber to allow air to flow in series through the chambers, a condenser coil disposed in the outer chamber, a discharge tube that extends out the cover connected to the bottom of the coil, means for eliminating the requirement of a bubble catcher including: a gasket carried in said bottom wall of said cover that forms a low pressure seal for the container by bearing against the inner surface of the wall of the container, and an inlet tube mounted in the cover and having one end connected to the top of the condenser coil and the other end extending through the cover bottom wall and communicating with the top of the container so that steam may rise in the inlet tube and flow into the condenser coil when the cover is on the container and the heating plate is energized to boil water in the container, said other end of the inlet tube lying above the lowest portion of the cover bottom wall so that the cover can be placed upright on a flat surface, and a motor and fan disposed in the inner chamber of the cover for causing outside air to be drawn through the openings into the cover and over the condenser coil and motor and out the openings.
