Is distilled water not available?

  You can go through gallons of water per day trying to keep some places humidified. At the scale, the cost and annoyance of having to stock up on distilled water gets pretty bad.

  Yeah what the other guy said. Keeping my toddler's room humidified at night uses several gallons of water per week, which would be pretty annoying to have to manage over time. Boiling tap water really shouldn't have any health risks, that's exactly how distilled water is made. I'm just skipping the redundant distillation step. I have pretty soft water so I haven't actually had to clean the heating element after 2 years of use.
