This research study assessed the Technology Management of the Seawater Distillation System to be further utilized by the residence of the Municipality of Pinamungajan in a Community Extension Initiatives. This utilized the descriptive-correlative design. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to analyze the descriptive statistical measures such as frequencies, ranges, and percentages. Regression correlation was used to test the decree of relationship between the dependent and independent variables. It was found out that the Total Dissolved Solids and Electric Conductivity Test had a highly significant relationship as to the quality of the seawater converted into fresh water. It was also found out that the most prevalent barriers and challenges of the distillation system were the cost and environment impacts of the discharges and impurities. From the data presented, it can be concluded that a need for an innovation as to seawater distillation will be of great help to augment the scarcity of fresh water especially to the coastal areas thus, the urge to conduct Community Extension Initiatives with more emphasis on demonstration of the innovated distillation system as an output of the study.
