Boiling, then cooling, questionable water is commonly advised to travelers
before drinking or using in meal preparation.
It will not hurt in your cpap, as long as you let it cool; but is probably not necessary.
Only water VAPOR goes into your hose--bad stuff stays in the tank.
Boiling water before cpap will make mineral deposits slightly worse, since you're concentrating the minerals by boiling.
I DID mention the "bad stuff" . . .
Indeed you did. I'm just mentioning that boiling the water first, means there's more bad stuff in the water to be left behind

Funny that the adapter that the adapter I have for the UK, Ireland, and Hong Kong has no fuse and a plastic pin to go into the earthing (a.k.a. grounding) hole. As far as I know, the only difference between the Dreamstations sold in the US and those sold in the UK are the shape of the plug (and the fact that it contains a fuse) at the very end of the cord.
Ah, the deathdapter. keep using it!.
