Question:
Where can I get a Water Distiller locally?

Answer: We did make a visit to both the Home Depot and Lowes yesterday, and noticed all those filtration systems (including the reverse osmosis gizmos that you hook up to your water system) and though it would be nice, that's just way too complicated and expensive. The best solution (and least effort, on our part) is to get an actual water distiller. We're fine using our water for everything except drinking.

I've had a private email that tells me Sears sells them. I should have thought of that.

There's a lot of hoses to the GE reverse osmosis system, but once it's installed the supply is continuous and there's a decent reservoir. Despite all the complicated looking lines, all you do is tap the cold water supply under the sink and tap the drain line. The only real "work" is drilling and sticking the new faucet. I've done this and it's child's play.

Unless you have very specialized needs, you don't want a distiller. You want a reverse-osmosis filter. Much, much more practical.
