Can Purified water be substituted for Distilled water in machiines used for Sleep Apnea?

Yes it can... Purified and distilled water are essentially the same substance. Purified water has been filtered to remove any contaminants, and treated to remove any trace chemicals (such as chlorine). Distilled water has been heated to boiling point - the pure steam created is then fed through a pipe into a cooling system - so that the steam turns back into liquid water.


What liquids are distilled water?

Distilled water is water that has been purified through a process of distillation, which involves boiling water and then condensing the steam back into liquid form. It is free from impurities, minerals, and contaminants commonly found in regular tap water.


What is similar about distilled water and salt water?

The 2 parts hydrogen and 1 part oxygen. Distilled water is water "purified" by distillation. Salt water is water with salt in it.


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.


What is distilled water metal or nonmetal?

Distilled water is a nonmetal. It is a type of purified water created through a process called distillation, which involves boiling water and then condensing the steam back into liquid form.

Can you use purified water in batteries?

No, use only Distilled Water.


Can you put purified water in a battery?

You can put purified water into a car battery, but it is better to use distilled water (not the same thing). 'Purified' simply refers to the absence or removal of contaminants which are harmful to humans, not batteries, so purified water will usually still contain trace minerals, etc. which can possibly cause harm to your battery.You can get distilled water cheaply at just about any grocery store (sometimes found in the pharmacy section).


Can I Substitute boiled water for distilled water?

Boiled water is not the same as distilled water. Distilled water has been purified by a distillation process, which removes impurities and minerals. Boiling water may kill bacteria but it does not remove impurities, so it is not a suitable substitute for distilled water in applications requiring high purity.


What can be done to clean drinking water?

It can be filtered, distilled, or purified by reverse osmosis.


Is steam distilled water the same as regular distilled water?

No. Distilled water has been completely purified; bottled water is just water from a stream or river, placed in a bottle and sold.
