On the prices, those are prices for refilling the entire container.
For a 5 gallon container, at around $1.25 (+- 5 cents)a refill, comes to
only 25 cents a gallon. I know that it comes out to less than 35 cents a
gallon, and it is at least 25 cents a gallon. All of this is of course with
the 5 gallon container, which is well worth the cost.

I am not quite sure how these machines turn a profit, unless they are far
more efficient than the simple water distiller units that I have seen for
sale for home use, which if I remember correctly can cost around 35 cents
per gallon in electricity(?) and do not have the UV sterilization either (I
do not know what filters the home units have).
