Distilled Water

[Sligub]

It contains some Propylene Glycol which is good for some humidifiers but terrible for beads.

I notice most of the distilled water from cigar websites and tobacco shops claim to have magical anti-fungal properties.

What are these anti-funal properites? how does it differ from just nipping into halfords and buying 5 litres of stuff without the so called anti funal stuff?

Is it used by everyone for some thing?

Sorry, just saw this reply to my post. Well, for one every person who uses and iron for their clothes uses distilled water. Any equipment you have that uses water you'd want to use distilled. My sleep apnia C-pap machine for instance. Distilled water keeps everything from gunking up when you use it in the place of tap water. Run it through your coffee maker when done with it to keep it clean.

More importantly, if you have a humidor you want to use it.

A difference in the production process, but does the same job.
De ionised water can have less impurities than distilled. (I read somewhere)

[Nightwingvyse]

De-ionized has done fine with me. You can get it anywhere.

[Gary]

Is de-ionised water and distilled water not different?

2.5l De-ionised water, ?1 Asda.

What kind of quantities do you use it in? in all honesty even if your using fairly large amounts (pints) why don't you just make it yourself? it's very easy.

I seee the elderly people getting it all the time. Baths for their feet, they use it for.
Or watering my Venus flytraps and other weird plants.

For 80 cents per 4l, you can drink it and it'll be cheaper than some bottled waters!

Boy, we must be lucky because distilled water is available at every grocery store along side the bottled water. Extremely cheap. The only pharmacies (chemists?) that would have it would be those that also serve as a convenience market.
