what kind of water does iit take

Tap water can be used unless your water is very hard.If so, they recommend using distilled.They also say not to use home water softening system water since it contains minerals. Personally, I like products made by Panasonic.

We use distilled water. I'm not sure you have to, but it seems as though it's always better for the iron. We get plenty of steam and use rather a small amount of water, now that I think of it. We're very happy with the iron.

This is just a filter housing. The filters you can put in it are pretty much particle filters. The smaller the micron filter the more particles it will filter out. Though if you are specificly looking to filter out those, this is probably not the right way to go. Check out ohio pure water's website, CK Moore is great at reccomending the right filter for the items you are wanting to filtering out.

Well it comes from cows that are grass fed, no pesticides or hormones are injected so in that sense iit is "organic". You can buy it either salted or salt free.

Distiller water is recommended. It will be better for the life of the steamer. Tap water has harsh minerals.

All three. Personally, though, if any result was borderline, I would send my water to a professional lab before drinking it. I would consider the test as a screening device, only.

For water, you could use this: http://www.instructables.com/id/Web-Based-Water-Metering-with-ioBridge/

No do not use this there. In the fine print, you see it is NSF 42 for water treatment standard. This is the minimum. Filters for making truly potable/bacteria-free water are NSF 53 (53 means they filter bacteria like naegleria, cryptosporidium, and giardia).

we use a 50:50 mix of distilled water and water from our refrigerator's water spigot. we have very hard water.

regular water is fine but all mine is reverse osmosis. If you don't i would watch for lime build up.

Yes, basically what you have left is H2O. No salts from softeners, no chlorine, no minerals. Some say minerals and even bacteria are important to humans. If so I'd rather have my water pure and get minerals other ways. Dave

Theoreticaly yes. As long as its pure rainwater and hasn't been contaminated it should be fine. That would depend on method of collection though. When in doubt distilled water is a cheap and safe solution. Tap water is a big no as is anything with high mineral content. I would avoid downspout collected water.

Unfortunately, you would need to restart. But iit is easy to tell whether you have enough water for a full cup.

This one is considered industrial grade. It can also be plumbed into a water supply so you don't have to refill the water tank manually.

No, any tap water is fine as far as I know. I would just always let it dry thoroughly after use. This is a great product!

Call the company. Some companies use water which is safest, others use extracting chemcals

Distilled water is best. If your tap water is low in minerals, it should work fine.
