    Don't see why not, after all it's just water that's been floating around in the air the same as rain!
  • Best use for it is in your steam iron !

    Hi

    i use it in aquarium, steam iron, screen wash. Not sure about plants - as the normal water contains Ca, Mg and other trace elements a bit of nitrates and phosphates.

  • I obviously don't keep my tank clean enough - traces of black/red mildew in it!
    I do use it to water outside plant pots - wouldn't put it in my iron because of mildew.
