Distilled water is the best choide for cooling systems and for
batteries. It is completely free of all minerals.

Distillation - waer is converted to steam, leaving all minerals behind,
then the steam is condensed back to a liquid state, which is now free of
any impurities. This makes distilled water the best choice over
de-ionized water. There are many filtering sytems available that clean
up water very well, and make it potable and useable for most other
applications, but this still does not achieve the same purity standard
as distilled water.
