Boiling by itself doesn't remove solids or dissolved minerals like calcium; the water has to be distilled.

Countertop water distillers may look less intimidating.

So interesting I thought... I do have the zero water filter the big one for the fridge. I put the new filter in 2 weeks ago when we first got here. We have been using for drinking water for 3 people. About 400-500 ounces between the 3 of us a day. I decided to test it and it is still at a 000 PPM. Since I have been using tap water for my little evap cooler that I have set up on the cage I am going to switch to the zero water for the ice cubes and water that goes into the unit. Reduce the potential for issues to the unit. But I really thought it was interesting that after so much use it was still at a 000 PPM after 2 weeks.
I wont be using it for the mistking or the fogger. I am using probably 4 gallons every 2 days right now and I am still playing with my misting lengths since I am living in a totally different environment than before. It takes too long to sit and fill the gallon bottles with it. Plus I do not want to ruin the filter too quickly because they are expensive.

Tds of 9ppm for water is ideal i would say as rainwater generally has a tds of 10-20 depending on level of pollution

So I ordered, tried , and failed. This distiller was a flop after 3 cycles. The fan started clanking and sound like it was getting ready to blow up. After reviewing so many ,I finally picking this one
Because it was on a prime day sale. This thing was huge and to my surprise not that loud. I sent it back . However, I spent a little more on my second one ; also, expecting that it's a little smaller and more appealing on my kitchen cabinet . also to my surprise most white ones with plastic jugs have bad reviews.This is the bad one I picked:
