Random question about what type of water to use!

nightrider1470 · 10 Jul 2013 at 09:43

I have just bought this for my lounge

Now am guessing using normal tap water isnt best as it will cause scaling over time. Read somewhere to use deionised water......... I have a machine that produces RO water for my fish tank. Will this be good enough to use comparing to deionised ?

It doesn't get any purer than RO water so it should be fine.

It looks like a baddie from doctor who. I bet it starts talking to you one day and telling you to kill.

A practically 5ft high water feature in the lounge, isn't that going to look a bit out of place?

Cubic Litre??

If a litre was a measurement of length, then maybe.

Use the wet kind of water (sparkling).
