Water
Our partnership with YETI coolers allowed us to design a program that focuses on reducing the use of plastic bottles in Rio Marié to zero or to a minimum. As a result, we have built last generation filters to provide pure potable water in our lodges. The Untamed Amazon has a complete water filtration system, of 5 elements (Sediment, Micro Filter, Bacterial Filter and Reverse Osmosis units). The quality of our water is regularly checked by a renowned Manaus (Brazil) laboratory—you will find the pertaining certificate in the living room. All bathrooms have filtered water in taps and showers.
Electricity on Boat
Amazon Untamed has electricity through solar power generators, and we have electricity 24 hours a day. We ask all guests to consider the average environment and the economy of our operation, reducing electrical consumption in addition to leaving electrical items on when not in use. The solar battery system is designed to maintain energy from 23hs until 6 am without the need to ignite diesel generators. Erase the lights when not in use. There are diesel generators forbackup needs. The electric current is 110 volts, 50 cycles available 24 hours in all the rooms.From 17pm to 23pm, the generator is on duty to recharge batteries and maintain high electrical consumption. From 23pm to 6am we work with solar panels and the battery bank.
