Distilled water is boiled and condensed so almost everything is left behind, and it is used where pure water matters — from irons to appliances to baby formula. It is not usually a whole-home drinking water.
The process
Distillation boils the water and condenses the steam, leaving minerals and contaminants behind in the chamber. The result is very pure water.
The uses
Distilled water goes in irons, steamers, humidifiers, and car batteries, where minerals would leave scale. It is also used for sensitive recipes and some formulas.
The drinking
Pure distilled water is safe, but it lacks the minerals people may want, so most homes use it for appliances rather than daily drinking. rain and older housing stock mean corroded fittings and slow drains show up often In Lynnwood, the tap is the usual choice.
The cost
Distilling at home uses energy and makes little at a time, so it suits small, occasional needs.
