Try 68 cents a gallon sometimes.
No way electricity would cost that much to distill water !! [..not like I
know what it costs in the UK....really? ]
Have you tried battery water from the auto parts store?
it takes about 3 kilowatt hours to make a gallon of distilled water. A
kilowatt = 1000 watts, a kilowatt hour is 1000 watts per hour. The power
company sells you electricity by the kilowatt; the average kilowatt cost is
about 8-10 cents. Since the distiller will use three kilowatt hours to make
a gallon of water the cost is about 24 cents per gallon. That's a whole lot
cheaper than bottled water. http://arrowheadcutlery.com/healthcraft/faq.htm

A dollar a gallon!! Ours here in the UK is more like $28 per gallon! And
that can't be bought at a store - it has to be sent off for. I still
think I am better doing this though, because a) the water is so pure, and
b) it would probably cost me more in electricity to do my own! Then
there's the cost of the distiller of course, and it may not be so pure
when I've done it. dee

I have ALWAYS used grocery market distilled water. Always bought the

Been doing this for over a decade...no problems.
Could never understand anyone wanting to spend the money on fuel to
home-distill, besides heating up the house needlessly also.
I know some in other countries cannot find distilled to buy, so they
HAVE a reason, but for less than a dollar a gallon, I'll go to the
market.
