Why Should I only use distilled water in my humidifier?

We are always asked, "Why should I only use distilled water in my humidifier in my humidor?" "Can I use just tap water?"
Distilled water is the only water you should use inside your humidor's humidifier system. The reason is very simple, distilled water has no chemicals in the water such as chlorine, and other chemicals that are used to clean your tap water.
You must understand if you use tap water all those chemicals that are in the water will be absorbed into your cigars, you would not want to taste chlorine or any other chemical when you light up your fine cigar.
The whole idea in a humidifier system in a humidoris to ensure that your cigars stay fresh and age properly while inside your humidor, using distilled water will ensure that they will not have any unpleasant tasting chemicals being absorbed into your cigars.
Distilled water is actually water that has been boiled to get rid of any chemicals in the water, the steam of the boiled water is trapped and saved, giving you pure H2O, "distilled H2O"
