Water Distillation - Water Distillers and Distilled Water - Myths and Facts

Myths, false statements, consumer misleading and misinformation. Call them what you will, there is a lot of poor non-factual information out there when it is in reference to water distillation or water distillers. Most of them come from water filter sellers who do not sell, or do not understand water distillation. This is'nt anything new since many of the myths about water distillers have been around for 10 to 15 years. The difference today is that people (consumers) are more aware of their health and their drinking water and they are more of an informed consumer. They see in the news about the water problems. How many of you have seen or been given "Boiling Notices" for your drinking water because of Bacteria or Cryptosporidium? We hear today more about Cryptosporidium problems then ever. We also hear about Water Distillation being one of the most consistent and purest forms of water purification.

Whether it is plain ignorance or intentional misleading, we still find many filter dealers un-educated today and still putting down water distillation and distillers. The only answer to this that we can come up with is either (A) they don't understand distillation, or (B) they simply are trying to mislead a consumer to sell their filter product.

A FACT that can not be disputed is that water distillation removes the broadest range of contaminants over any other form of point of use (POU) water treatment system. Another FACT is that distilled water comes THE CLOSEST to the definition of PURE DRINKING WATER and unlike filtration, it is consistent, un-disputed!

Another FACT is that water distillation is the most effective method for the removal of organic, inorganic and biological (bacteria, viruses, etc.) contaminants. Distillation removes a greater percentage of these harmful impurities than reverse osmosis (RO), Ultraviolet (UV), filtering and other methods of purification. Also, these other methods lose their effectivness and must be serviced and are not as consistent as water distillation.

Distillation and water distilling is not a new process but in fact, a very old method of cleaning up and purifying water.

The definition of DISTILLATION is: "the process of heating a mixture and condensing the resulting vapor to produce a more nearly pure substance".

Distillation is as old as the earth. Nature uses a form of distillation called "Hydrologic Cycle". This natural distillation method is where the sun heats the water on the earth's surface. The water is turned into a vapor (evaporation) and rises, leaving contaminants behind, to form clouds. As the upper atmosphere drops in temperature the vapors cool and convert back to water to form water droplets. When the water droplets drop to the earth's surface, as snow or rain (precipitation), the cycle repeats again. This cycle is also known as Nature's Air Purification system because the water that falls in the form of rain or snow collect from the air dirt and air pollutant particles bringing them to the ground - cleaning the air.

When did humans start understanding and using distillation? A form of distillation was used by ancient Greek sailors. They use to hang sponges over pots of boiling sea (salt) water. They would then squeeze out the collected water from the sponges. They did this because they found that the water squeezed out from the sponges was not salty and was drinkable. Today, the US Navy uses distilled water derived from sea water for drinking on-board.

Water Distillers today are simply a man-made form of replicating Nature's "Hydrologic Cycle" method of producing pure water. Distillation is generally recognized as an effective broad spectrum water treatment method and removes many different kinds of contaminants including biological contaminants such as bacteria and viruses.

Distilled water, besides being the best for Drinking and Cooking water, is used for a variety of applications. Distilled water is best for use in Home Aquariums and Fish Tanks, Home Appliances such as Irons and Humidifiers and is used in Wet-Celled Batteries.

Distilled water is also used when pure water is needed for for such things as Photo Processing, Pharmaceuticals, Perfumes, Facial Products, Cosmetic Products, Laboratories, Plant Water, Rinse Water, etc...

What Distiller Units Treat!

Water distillation is an effective process for producing highly treated drinking water. Water distillation can significantly reduce levels of sediment, metals, and biological contaminants, which are unable to travel out of the boiling chamber with the steam. When combined with effective activated carbon filtration, contaminants like VOCs and radon can also be controlled. It is recommended that only units designed and tested for health-contaminant reduction be used for such purposes. Water distillation, when combined with activated carbon filtration, can be used to effectively treat such contaminants as:

  • Arsenic
  • Asbestos
  • Atracine (Herbicide/pesticides)
  • Benzene
  • Fluoride
  • Lead
  • Mercury
  • Nitrate
  • Trichloroethylene (TCE)
  • Trihalomethanes
  • Radium
  • Radon
  • Biological contaminants (bacteria, viruses, and water-borne cysts like cryptosporidium)

Also, a water distillation system with activated carbon filtration can also be quite effective for treating aesthetic (taste and odor) drinking water contaminants like chlorine or iron bacteria, which lead to unpleasant tastes, odors, or colors.


The following are questions consumers have about Distilled Water and Water Distiller units. (Some of these questions are based and arise because of misinformation or misleading and false statements given to them, usually by filter sellers trying to sell them a water filter.)

"I was told that water distillation is all the same in all units and it would be a waist of money for me to pay for a Name Brand water distiller when I can get a non-brand name for less. What do you think?"

It is true that the water distillation process is basically the same but all water distillers are not alike. Quality components inside a water distiller is the difference and unit testing is another. A water distiller is a big investment and we feel it's important you get a Name Brand simply for repair capability down the road. You would hate to find out that 4 or 5 years later you need a replacement part or repair and find the manufacturer had gone out of business. A Name Brand for a water distiller is important for quality and for repair and parts. With many different products, look-a-likes enter the market and are priced the same or a little bit lower than a leading Brand Name. Chances are, lower cost also means lower quality and a few years later the company is gone. When it comes to water quality and water distillers, we feel it is important to provide a quality, reliable product from a manufacturer that has been around for at least 20 or 30 years. No company would be around that long if they had poor quality products and you have a better assurance that they will be there when you need them!

"Will drinking Distilled Water leach minerals from my body?"

NO - Sales people using this myth to sell their product want you to believe that because distilled water is so pure, drinking it will leach minerals from your body, thereby robbing you of good health and nutrition. There is no basis of fact or documented evidence to prove this claim true.

"Will drinking distilled water for long periods of time cause deterioration of my teeth?"

NO - This is a truly inventive falsification. The negative message a filter seller wants to convey is that drinking distilled water (which has removed all traces of fluoride) for long periods, will supposedly destroy your teeth by deteriorating them. In fact, today MANY people want the fluoride removed from their drinking water and distillation is an excellent way of doing it!

OLD BETHPAGE, NY - A spokesperson for the Canadian Dental Association has announced he no longer supports fluoridation.

Dr. Hardy Limebeck, DDS, Ph.D., head of Preventative Dentistry at University of Toronto, said there is little, if any, benefit to swallowing fluoride, and it can cause adverse effects to bones and teeth. He reached his conclusions after reviewing scientific literature, and says that too much access to fluoride through water, foods, supplements, toothpastes and more has resulted in increased incidents of dental fluorosis, which discolors children's teeth.

Limebeck told the New York State Coalition Opposed to Fluoridation that fluoride should be banned from water supplies.

"I was told that Distillation takes out all the beneficial minerals that I need to live?"

FALSE - It is true that Distillation removes minerals but mostly ALL of the beneficial minerals you receive are not from water. They come from food consumption. Fruits, vegetables, meat, poultry, grains, nuts, and dairy products are where the body gets it's beneficial minerals from. The minerals in water are so scant that you probably would have to drink over 600 8-ounce glasses of tap water to obtain the Recommended Daily Allowance ( RDA) of calcium. Most people can't even drink the recommended 8 glasses of water a day that is widely touted by health experts. This is simply another sales tactic!

The American Medical Association reported that, "The body's need for minerals is largely met through foods, not drinking water."

"Your Unit is UL Classified while others I see are only UL Listed, are they the same or is there a differance?"

NO - UL Listed and UL Classified ARE NOT THE SAME!

UL Listed simply means the product was checked for Electrical Safety.

UL Classified is a NEW Drinking Water Treatment Unit (DWTU) Certification program. Besides checking electrical safety, UL conducts extraction and analytical testing, specific contaminant reduction verification testing, and pressure testing and checks claims made by the manufacturer.

By NO MEANS is UL Listed the Same as UL CLassified!

    Why you shouldnt drink distilled water?
    4 months ago
  • There are a few reasons why it is not recommended to drink distilled water:
    1. Lack of minerals: Distilled water is created through a process of boiling water and collecting the steam, leaving behind any impurities. However, this process also removes essential minerals like calcium and magnesium that are beneficial for human health.
    2. Electrolyte imbalance: Drinking distilled water can disrupt the electrolyte balance in your body. Electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium, and chloride, are essential for the proper function of cells and organs. Distilled water lacks these electrolytes, and prolonged consumption can lead to imbalances and potential health problems.
    3. Taste and satisfaction: Distilled water is often described as having a flat taste due to the absence of minerals. People may find it less satisfying to drink, which can lead to decreased consumption and subsequent dehydration.
    4. Cleansing effects: Some proponents claim that distilled water can have cleansing or detoxifying effects on the body. However, there is limited scientific evidence to support this claim. The kidneys and liver are responsible for eliminating toxins from the body naturally, and drinking distilled water alone is unlikely to significantly enhance this process.
    5. In conclusion, while distilled water may have its uses in specific situations, such as medical procedures or certain household applications, it is generally not recommended for regular drinking due to its lack of essential minerals and potential electrolyte imbalances. It is advisable to drink water that contains natural minerals to support overall health and hydration.

          How to distill water for plants?
          9 months ago
        • To distill water for plants, you can follow these steps:
          1. Gather the necessary equipment: You will need a large pot with a lid, a smaller heat-resistant container, ice, and a stove or heat source.
          2. Fill the large pot with tap water, leaving some space at the top.
          3. Place the smaller container inside the pot, ensuring it doesn't touch the bottom. This smaller container will collect the distilled water.
          4. Put the pot on the stove or heat source and cover it with the lid, making sure it is slightly tilted to allow condensation to form and drip into the smaller container.
          5. Turn on the heat to medium-high and bring the water in the pot to a boil. As the water boils, the steam will rise and collect on the lid, cooling down and turning back into liquid as it touches the lid's cooler surface. It will then drip into the smaller container.
          6. Place a few ice cubes on the lid to facilitate condensation.
          7. Allow the water to boil for around 20-30 minutes to ensure you collect enough distilled water.
          8. Remove the pot from heat and wait for it to cool down. Once the pot is cool, carefully remove the lid without disturbing the smaller container.
          9. Transfer the distilled water from the smaller container into a clean, sealable glass container or a watering can for easy use.
          10. You can now use the distilled water to water your plants. Make sure to only use distilled water when watering plants that are sensitive to impurities or minerals in tap water.
          11. Remember that distilling water can be time-consuming and consumes energy, so it is recommended to only do it when necessary or for plants that specifically require distilled water.

            Is reverse osmosis water safe for neti pots?
            9 months ago
          • Yes, reverse osmosis (RO) water is considered safe for use in neti pots. RO water goes through a filtration process that removes impurities, including bacteria and contaminants. However, it's essential to ensure that the RO system is properly maintained and the water is stored in a clean container to prevent any potential bacteria contamination. Additionally, some practitioners recommend adding a small amount of sterile saline solution to the RO water when using it in a neti pot to mimic the natural composition of nasal fluids.

              Does boiling water get rid of pfas?
              9 months ago
            • Boiling water alone does not effectively remove PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals that are highly resistant to heat and do not easily break down. While boiling water can kill harmful bacteria and viruses, PFAS remain in the water even after it reaches its boiling point. To remove PFAS from water, specialized treatment processes such as activated carbon filtration, reverse osmosis, or granular activated carbon filtration are required.

                Is distilled water the same thing as purified water?
                9 months ago
              • No, distilled water is not the same thing as purified water. Distilled water is produced by boiling water and collecting the steam, while leaving behind impurities and minerals. This process removes most impurities, including minerals, salts, and microorganisms, resulting in highly pure water. Purified water, on the other hand, refers to water that has undergone a treatment process to remove impurities. This can include methods such as filtration, reverse osmosis, or using chemical treatments to remove contaminants. Purified water can still contain some minerals and potentially small amounts of impurities, depending on the level of purification.

                    Why distilled water is not suitable for drinking?
                    9 months ago
                  • Distilled water is not suitable for drinking because it lacks essential minerals that our bodies need for normal functioning. When water is distilled, all impurities, including minerals, are removed through the process of boiling and condensation. As a result, distilled water is chemically pure but devoid of minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium that are necessary for proper hydration and overall health. Drinking distilled water over a long period of time could lead to mineral deficiencies and electrolyte imbalances in the body. Additionally, the taste of distilled water is often described as flat or bland due to the absence of minerals, which may not be appealing to some people. While distilled water can be used for specific purposes such as in medical procedures or scientific experiments that require pure water, it is generally recommended to consume water that contains beneficial minerals for optimal health.

                        What do you expect would happen to the distilled water?
                        9 months ago
                      • If distilled water is kept in a clean and sealed container, it will remain unchanged for a long period of time. Distilled water is essentially pure water, as it has been heated to evaporate and separate from impurities and then condensed to form a liquid again. It does not contain any minerals, ions, or impurities that can react with the environment or degrade over time. Therefore, distilled water is highly stable and does not undergo any significant changes or deterioration when stored properly.

                                              Does distilled water leach minerals from your body?
                                              10 months ago
                                            • There is a misconception that consuming distilled water leads to mineral deficiency or leaching of minerals from the body. However, this is not entirely accurate. Distilled water is created through a process of boiling water and then collecting the steam. This process removes impurities and minerals, resulting in pure water with no mineral content. When consumed in large amounts over long periods, distilled water may potentially contribute to a slight reduction in mineral intake. However, the human body obtains minerals primarily from a balanced diet, which should provide sufficient mineral intake to maintain health. Furthermore, any potential loss of minerals from consuming distilled water is minimal and can be easily compensated for by consuming a well-rounded diet with adequate mineral-rich foods. Therefore, as long as an individual maintains a varied and balanced diet, there should be no significant concern about mineral deficiency due to drinking distilled water.

Distillation involves boiling water and then condensing the steam back into liquid form, leaving behind impurities such as minerals, salts, and other contaminants. Nothing typically happens to distilled water after it has been purified, as it is chemically stable and does not undergo any significant changes over time. However, it may absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which can slightly alter its pH and taste. The pH may increase, making it slightly less acidic. Additionally, distilled water is often stored in containers to prevent contamination from outside sources. It is important to keep the containers clean and tightly sealed to maintain the purity of the water.

                                                                                                              1. Start by filling a pot or container with tap water. Make sure the container is clean and free from any impurities.
                                                                                                              2. Place a heat-resistant glass bowl or a smaller pot inside the larger pot. The smaller pot should float on the surface of the water without touching the bottom.
                                                                                                              3. Cover the larger pot with a lid, but make sure there is a gap or opening for evaporated water to escape.
                                                                                                              4. Bring the water to a simmer over medium heat. As the water begins to boil, the steam will rise and condense on the lid.
                                                                                                              5. Collect the condensed steam by placing a clean and cold container on top of the lid (ensure it's heat-resistant).
                                                                                                              6. As the steam cools down and condenses on the lid, it will drip into the container, creating distilled water.
                                                                                                              7. Allow the container to cool down before collecting the distilled water from it. This will ensure that any remaining steam condenses and turns into water.
                                                                                                              8. Remember, this method only removes impurities and dissolved minerals from the water, but it may not remove all contaminants such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or bacteria. For more purified water, it's recommended to use a water distiller or a water filtration system specifically designed for this purpose.

Distillation is a method that separates different components of a liquid mixture based on their boiling points. To make alcohol using a water distiller, you would need a fermented liquid, such as wine or beer. The liquid needs to undergo fermentation first, where yeast converts sugar into alcohol. Once the fermentation is complete, you can use a water distiller to separate the alcohol from the rest of the mixture. Here's a basic step-by-step process:
                                                                                                                1. Prepare a fermented liquid: This can be homemade wine, beer, or any other alcoholic liquid that has undergone fermentation. Ensure that the fermentation process is complete.
                                                                                                                2. Set up the water distiller: Follow the instructions provided with the water distiller to properly set it up.
                                                                                                                3. Fill the distiller's boiling chamber: Pour the fermented liquid into the boiling chamber of the distiller.
                                                                                                                4. Heat the liquid: Turn on the water distiller and heat the liquid. As the temperature rises, alcohol will vaporize before water and other components of the mixture.
                                                                                                                5. Collect the alcohol vapor: The alcohol vapor will rise and pass through the condensation tube of the distiller. It will then condense and turn into liquid alcohol.
                                                                                                                6. Collect the distilled alcohol: Place a container at the end of the condensation tube to collect the condensed alcohol.
                                                                                                                7. Please note that distilling alcohol at home may be subject to legal restrictions or require appropriate licenses in some jurisdictions. It's essential to check the local laws and regulations governing the production of alcohol before attempting to distill your own.

Distillation is a process that involves boiling water to produce steam, and then condensing that steam back into liquid form, thereby removing impurities and contaminants such as minerals, bacteria, and viruses. It is an effective method for purifying water, as most contaminants have higher boiling points than water, so they are left behind during the distillation process. However, it's important to note that distillation may not remove certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or chemicals with similar boiling points to water, so additional filtration or treatment methods may be necessary for complete purification in some cases.

Distilled water is not recommended as a reliable source of drinking water because it lacks essential minerals and nutrients. Distillation is a process that removes minerals, salt, and other contaminants from water by boiling it and condensing the steam into a clean container. This process leaves the water almost completely free of impurities, but it also removes beneficial minerals and electrolytes like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Drinking distilled water can also disrupt the body's electrolyte balance and lead to health issues such as dehydration and increased risk of heart attack.

                                                                                                                                    1. Use a remineralization product. Several companies make remineralization products designed specifically for use in aquariums. Follow the instructions on the product packaging to mix the correct dosage for your tank.
                                                                                                                                    2. Add sea salt. Sea salt contains the minerals needed to remineralize your tank water. Depending on the salinity of your tank, you may need to add more or less salt.
                                                                                                                                    3. Use an ion exchange filter. Ion exchange filters work by exchanging minerals between the incoming water and the filter media. This is a slow process and may take several hours to completely remineralize your tank water.
                                                                                                                                    4. Add crushed coral. Crushed coral is a popular aquarium gravel that contains several minerals, including calcium, magnesium, and potassium. These minerals will remineralize your tank water as they dissolve into it.

Distilled water is pure H20, with no minerals or trace elements that are necessary for fish to live healthy and strong. If you are looking for a way to make the water safe for fish, you would need to use a water conditioner, such as Seachem Prime, to add back all the necessary minerals and trace elements. Be sure to follow the directions on the package, as each conditioner may require different amounts of product.

Boiling water heats it, which can kill some bacteria, but does not remove other contaminants such as minerals and chemicals. Distilled water is created by boiling the water and condensing the steam, which removes all contaminants and leaves only pure water.

                                                                                                                                                                            2. Attach a distillation apparatus to the pot. This will look like a long glass tube with one end in the pot and the other end in a container to collect the distilled water.
                                                                                                                                                                            3. As the water boils, the steam will travel through the tube, cool, and turn back into a liquid as it enters the container.
                                                                                                                                                                            4. Once the water level in the container is full, turn off the heat source and disconnect the apparatus.
                                                                                                                                                                            5. Allow the distilled water to cool completely before transferring it to a clean, airtight container for storage.

                                                                                                                                                                                                              2. Attach a condensation chamber to the pot and make sure there is no air leak between the chamber and the pot.
                                                                                                                                                                                                              3. Place a heat-resistant glass container underneath the chamber and let the steam condense in it.
                                                                                                                                                                                                              4. When the water stops boiling, turn off the heat and let the steam condense.
                                                                                                                                                                                                              5. Once the distilled water has cooled, pour it into a container with a lid and store it in a cool, dry place.

Place the pot or bowl over a heat source. Boil for about 20 minutes. The steam will rise and condense on a lid or the sides of the pot.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    4. Place a metal or glass bowl upside down over the pot or bowl. The steam will condense and drip down the bowl into a separate container. This container of water is now distilled.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    5. Remove the pot or bowl from the heat and turn off the heat source. Let the distilled water cool before drinking or using.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    • Making a distiller at home is a relatively simple process and can be done with minimal materials. Here’s what you need: - A large pot or kettle - A second, smaller pot or kettle to fit inside the larger one - A water source - An electric heating element (optional) - A collection vessel - A condenser - Cooling coils (optional) - Tubing (for connecting the pieces) Instructions
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      1. Fill the large pot with water and place the smaller one inside. Make sure there's enough space between them, so that the heated water from the larger pot doesn't spill into the smaller one.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      2. Heat the water in the large pot. If you're using an electric heating element, insert it into the larger pot at this time. Otherwise, use a stovetop or other heat source to heat the large pot of water.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      3. Place the collection vessel on top of the smaller pot. This will collect the distilled liquid as it condenses.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      4. Connect the condenser to the collection vessel. This will cool the vaporized liquid, condensing it back into liquid form.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      5. If you're using cooling coils, connect them to the condenser. This will help to cool down the liquid even more.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      6. Connect the tubing to the condenser and the collection vessel. This will ensure that the distilled liquid is directed to the collection vessel.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      7. Turn up the heat (if using electric heating element) and watch the water evaporate into vapor and condense back into liquid in the collection vessel.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      8. Turn off the heat, disconnect the electric heating element (if using), and let the distiller cool down.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      9. Disconnect the condenser and collect your distilled liquid.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      10.

This process removes contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, heavy metals, minerals, organic compounds, inorganic compounds, and other pollutants from the water. It also helps to improve the taste and odor of the water. Distillation is an effective way to purify drinking water because it can remove a wide range of contaminants, including some that other purification processes may not remove.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            • You can make distilled water at home using a basic distillation process.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              1. Gather the necessary equipment. You'll need a large pot or container, a glass bowl, a few feet of food-grade tubing, and an ice chest or other container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              2. Fill the pot or container with water and put it on the stove.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              3. Place the bowl in the middle of the pot. Make sure the bowl is deep enough to submerge the food-grade tubing.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              4. Connect one end of the tubing to the bowl and the other end to the ice chest.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              5. Turn on the stove and allow the water to heat up until it starts to boil.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              6. As the water boils, it will create steam which will travel through the tubing and into the ice chest.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              7. The steam will cool and condense, leaving you with distilled water.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              8. Once the process is complete, turn off the heat and disconnect the tubing from the bowl.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              9. Carefully pour the distilled water from the ice chest into a clean container for use.

Fill a pot with tap or other drinking water and bring it to a boil.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                2. Place a heat-safe bowl in the center of the pot.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                3. Place a lid upside-down on top of the pot so that the bottom of the lid is facing up.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                4. Place ice cubes on top of the lid.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                5. As the water in the pot boils, the steam rises and hits the cold lid, condensing into liquid and dripping down into the bowl.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                6. After some time, you will have collected enough distilled water in the bowl. Strain this water through a coffee filter to remove any impurities before drinking.

These units use a process called distillation to purify water by boiling it and collecting the steam, which is then condensed back into liquid form. Distilled water is free of impurities, including dissolved salts, minerals, chlorines, and other contaminants.

Distilling is a process where water is boiled and the resulting water vapor is condensed back into liquid water. This process removes bacteria, viruses, and other impurities, but it does not remove lead and other heavy metals.

Attach the Silicone Tubing:
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      10. Cut two pieces of the food-grade non-toxic silicone tubing. Attach one end of each piece of tubing to the strainer and the other end to the glass jar.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      11. Fill the Pot with Water:
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      12. Fill the pot with water and place it on the stove.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      13. Boil the Water:
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      14. Heat the water on the stove until it boils. As the water boils, the steam will rise and condense on the sides of the glass jar. The steam will then drip down through the filter and into the jar. This is your distilled water.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      15. Collect the Distilled Water:
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      16. Once the water in the pot has evaporated, you can remove the lid and collect the distilled water from the glass jar.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      • mirella

This is due to water shortages as well as the rising popularity of home distilling, which has put a strain on the global supply. Distilled water is also used in a variety of applications from automotive to manufacturing, which has added to the demand. Additionally, some areas have experienced a lack of access to resources, resulting in a decrease in the number of distilleries. As a result, the demand for distilled water is expected to continue to increase into 2022.

All you will need is a pot or large container, a smaller container, and some ice.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          1. Fill the large container with water and place it on the stove.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          2. Heat the water until it begins to boil.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          3. Place the smaller container in the middle of the boiling water.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          4. Place the ice on top of the smaller container. This will cause the steam to condense and create droplets of distilled water which will then fall into the smaller container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          5. Allow the water to boil until your desired amount of distilled water is in the smaller container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          6. Remove the smaller container and discard the water inside.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          7.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              1. Heat the water in the pot on your heat source until it reaches a rolling boil. Once it starts to boil, reduce the heat and let it continue boiling for several minutes.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              2. Place the clean glass bowl or container over the boiling pot of water.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              3. Place the larger container to collect the distilled below the condensing container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              4. As the water boils, steam will condense in the glass bowl and run down the sides, into the collecting container below.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              5. As this happens, the pure distilled water will collect in the larger container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              6. When finished, turn off the heat source and remove the condensing container from the pot. Your distilled water is now ready to use.

The distillation process separates the water molecules from other compounds based on their boiling points. Since fluoride has a much lower boiling point than water, it cannot be removed by distillation. However, reverse osmosis and activated alumina filtration can both be used to remove fluoride from water.

In fact, distilling water can actually concentrate the fluoride in the water since fluoride is not vaporized by the distillation process. To remove fluoride from water, reverse osmosis filtration or a special fluoride-removal filter should be used.

Find a large pot to create your distiller. Make sure the pot has a lid and is tall enough to fit a smaller bowl or container inside.

Cut a hole in the lid and fit a rubber hose into it. This hose should be small enough to fit snugly around the edge of the lid.

Place a bowl or container into the pot. Make sure the container is large enough to contain the distilled water you will be collecting.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          4. Fill the pot with water, making sure to completely submerge the bowl.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          5. Place the lid on the pot, making sure the rubber hose is passing through the hole in the lid.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          6. Connect a second hose to the other end of the first hose and run it outside or to a container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          7. Place the pot on a source of heat, such as a stovetop or hot plate.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          8. Allow the water to boil until the steam passes through the hose and condenses in the container.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          9. Discard the old water and replace with fresh water when necessary.
