Indefinitely. It simply water that has been heated to boiling point, the steam drawn off, and condensed back into water. Distilling removes things like trace elements (chlorine etc) that are normally present in ordinary tap-water.

No! In fact, most modern steam irons recommend NOT using distilled water. Because of the lack of impurities in distilled water, it does not vaporize on contact with the soleplate in the same was simple tap water (or, if your water is hard, a mixture of tap and spring water) will. The use of distilled water will cause your iron to spit and leak. If in doubt, READ the INSTRUCTIONS. Rowenta irons are clear on this point, as are other major mainstream brands, such as Hamilton Beach.
