The NVI Hydrogen Generator is a device designed to save fuel, improve engine performance and provide a "green" alternative to conventional fuels like gasoline, ethanol and diesel.
Also known as a Hydrogen Cell, the Generator provides better mileage which, in turn, saves gas or other fuel alternatives, while it improves engine efficiency and lengthens engine life. Anyone interested in saving money over the long haul, definitely needs the help a Hydrogen Generator can provide.
Operating on the electricity provided by your vehicle's alternator, the unit actually provides "brown gas," a combination of hydrogen, oxygen and water vapor, that is inhaled by an engine's intake system resulting in substantial cost and fuel savings through improved engine efficiency. Save gas cost, save mileage and provide "green fuel" to help save the environment. It's a "Win, Win" situation for everyone concerned.
Questions and Answers
Q: How is it possible that my present engine will power the HYDROGEN GENERATOR and still get such an incredible improvement in gas mileage? Isn’t that against a law of physics that states you can’t get more energy out of something than you put in?
ANSWER: Your internal combustion engine's efficiency will be dramatically improved with the introduction of HYDROGENgas. You see, the engine alternator keeps turning whether or not the engine and battery use all of the electricity it produces. Energy is wasted constantly turning the alternator that is captured to power the HYDROGEN GENERATOR which, in turn, produces HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN GASES used to improve combustion. The way modern engines work, powering the HYDROGEN GENERATOR is virtually a FREBEE!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Is the HYDROGEN GENERATOR safe? Isn’t HYDROGEN a highly combustible, volatile gas?
ANSWER: It's absolutely safe and HYDROGEN is not as dangerous as gasoline. In the HYDROGEN GENERATORÒ it’s not under tremendous pressure in a tank that’s likely to rupture and then explode during a collision.

Q: My car doesn't have any space under the hood. How can I install a HYDROGEN GENERATOR in my car?
ANSWER: There is always some place a unit can be installed. For instance, the Ford Focus has no room under the hood, either, but a unit can be (and has been) installed outside of and below the engine compartment, in front of the right wheel well. Sometimes it takes a bit of creativity to find a location.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Would it be possible for me to sell these HYDROGEN GENERATORS on my own?
ANSWER: Yes, for instance, you could sell units on a distributor or commission basis. Email us to find out how this might work for you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Is there any possibility NVI might sell its products HYDROGEN GENERATORS any other way besides direct marketing by the company or its distributors?
ANSWER: There are no plans to market product in any other way.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How long has NVI been selling HYDROGEN GENERATORS?
ANSWER: Marketing efforts are not yet two years old. This Web site was initiated in October, 2006 and is constantly being updated. Testimonials are being added to this Web site even now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I know you have said HYDROGEN GENERATORS won't harm my vehicle(s) but how can I be sure?
ANSWER: The proof is in the technology. As long as no harsh chemicals are added to Generator units, nothing but water can possible result from the process of electrolysis. After combustion, that water is
expelled in a vehicle's engine exhaust as harmless steam. Users are cautioned not to add lye or any other harmful electrolytic substance to Generators - that's why only distilled water with a bit of mineral is recommended.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Can fleet owners purchase HYDROGEN GENERATORS at fleet discount prices?
ANSWER: Yes. Depending upon the number of units purchased, production economies of scale can reduce the cost per unit. Fleet owners are encouraged to call our office (see the "Contact Us" Web page).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Why do your HYDROGEN GENERATORS cost so much?
ANSWER: Actually, for what they accomplish, they are relatively inexpensive. Like any other product, the initial cost depends on labor, materials, fixed overhead, etc. But, unlike other expenditures (new TV or gaming system, for instance), this one pays you back by saving money normally spent on your regular fuel and helps improve global warmning, as well.
ANSWER NUMBER 2: And don't forget the fact that your initial expense to obtain a HYDROGEN GENERATOR may be partially or perhaps even completely offset by a reduction in your tax burden. Check out http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8911.pdf
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: If I install a HYDROGEN GENERATOR will it void the warranty on my car?
ANSWER: No. The addition of a HYDROGEN GENERATOR should be treated like any other after-market add-on that actually reduces harmful emissions. But, obviously, we cannot speak for all manufactures and if you think this might be an issue, we recommend you check with the company that provides your vehicle warranty.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Why can't I add chemicals to a Generator that will make it produce more hydrogen?
ANSWER: Adding lye or other electrolytic substances will void the warranty, eventually destroy the unit and may even harm your engine. The unit is designed to use only water with very low mineral content. Distilled water with a bit of mineral added is best. Follow the installation instructions for best results.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Distilled water has to be purchased. Why do you recommend it?
ANSWER: Tests have shown that distilled water with a bit of mineral added is the best electrolytic medium. It is very inexpensive and works just fine to keep the amperage under 15 amps. Again, follow the installation instructions for best results.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: It seems like the Generator takes a long time to use up a liter of water. Why is that?
ANSWER: Water is actually an extremely concentrated form of hydrogen and oxygen gases. A liter of water at sea level will produce an enormous amount of both gases when the two are separated by electrolysis. Don't worry, using NVI technology, a small amount of water can produce lots of gas.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Doesn't a HYDROGEN GENERATOR need to be protected from freezing during the winter?
ANSWER: Absolutely! A Generator should have a 20% denatured alcohol solution in order to keep it healthy during freezing weather. See the "Installation" page of this Web site for more details.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How many amps should my HYDROGEN GENERATOR draw? My unit has blown a fuse.
ANSWER: Your unit should draw under 15 amps - that's the design parameter and the top operating amp level you should allow. If your unit is blowing fuses, it may mean you have added water with too much mineral content. If this occurs, drain the unit and refill with distilled water. Sometimes a bit of experimentation is required before you find water quality that will keep your unit operating under 15 amps.
