I am sure Dee will respond herself, but meantime, please re-read her
post. She didn't say she is using tap water to make her CS, but that
she is DISTILLING tap water.
So far as I have tested with my PWT meter, no filter is equal to
distilling. My PWT doesn't read much different between plain tap
water and filtered water. I did get better distilled water when I
started from cold filtered tap water (a good faucet filter, not a
Brita) than when I started from hot unfiltered tap water. The point
of boiling before distilling is that preheating the water before
putting it into the still shortens the distilling time somewhat. With
my distiller though, it heated the water so fast that I didn't feel
the extra work was worth it as it didn't produce a significant
reduction in run time of the still.

No way would I be consuming tap water! City tap at least. I have a
well which I filter through a Berkley. I have wondered if I can use
this instead of store bought distilled?

I am surprised at you, Dee, using tap water from all the
contaminants I've read about recently being in tap water
(pharmaceutical drug residue, fluoride, chlorine, chromium, lead,
and about 140 other contaminants).
