You want to use DISTILLED WATER - any of the chain autoparts stores should have it in gallons. Mineral water has, well, minerals. Distilled water has close to all removed. Mineral water will corrode the cooling system and cause scale build-up. 1/8" of scale has the same insulating factor as 4" of iron - you do not want that.

Distilled water IS good for radiators. In fact, manufacturers recommend using nothing but distilled water to mix with antifreeze. Tap water contains minerals, which can promote corrosion. So tap water should be used in a cooling system only in case of an emergency.


Can purified water be used in place of distilled water?

Battery charging depletes hydrogen ions in both lead-acid batteries and Edison batteries. This reduces the liquid levels, because the hydrogen turns to a gas and dissipates into the atmosphere. This needs to be replaced with distilled water. When the hydrometer indicates the acid density has dropped below 1.2 (20% heavier than water) then the acid needs to be replaced in the battery.
