Can't find distilled H20, try here

[zoomzoom]

So I'm not going to describe the product like most people do because I don't want this to come up via google. However if you are in need of some distilled H2O for your CPAP, I found a good supply at Home Depot. The one I work for is small and it's in a wierd place so perhaps that's why we had some but worth a look. Ours was located at the end of a random plumbing aisle.

Yes, I know you can make distilled H20 yourself and if you clean your humidifier religiously you won't have an issue with tap water but some of us are still recovering from sleep debt so motivation may not be the best.

If you have a grocery store in town with water dispensers that use reverse osmosis and dispense on demand, that's a good alternative and you don't ever have to worry about if it's in stock. Just bring your own container. I know most, if not all, Whole Foods locations have them. I'm not sure about other chains.

The main reason I like distilled water (besides not having to clean, or clean as much) is because whenever I use tap water (which we drink normally) I feel like I am coughing quite a bit in the mornings after I wake up using CPAP. With distilled, I don't have this coughing issue or clogged up nose sensation.

I contacted WF and they said they don't have "distilled" water re-fill stations, but that they have "de-ionozed" water, which appears to be maybe similar? I will create a thread on the topic.

Yeah, what Whole Foods has is a station made by FreshPure Waters. The stations use reverse osmosis as the base to purify the water, but there's an option to dispense it de-ionized also, which is the one I use (sorry, I should have specified that option before). I've had better experience using this versus bottled distilled water. Early on into this, I started getting sinus infections using distilled water, likely because I wasn't cleaning my tub in a more timely manner, but that's on me. I've not had a problem since switching to this de-ionized water. I use a stainless steel Kleen Kanteen because it's easy to clean (FreshPure has recommended sanitizing techniques) and no plastic to degrade over time.

Glad to hear about your experience with deionized water. Now that we have a shelter in place in effect, at least I can make the excuse that I am getting groceries and medicinal supplies as I get my water, haha!
