deionized is what i meant to say. water is deionised by passing it through glass columns with deionising resins, and then it will contain no metal salts, acids, alkalis and other stuff which ionize's when dissolved in water.
ionization is measured by passing an electric current through the water with platinum electrodes to measure resistance. distilled water had a resistance of 58 thousand ohms per square centimetre of electrode at a distance of one centimetre apart. deionised water had a resistance of 4 million ohms.

anyways, like @/2ct!< said, DI water is worse for your system because it needs to pull ions from your blocks to balance, so it will gradually degrade your system

Deionized water will absorb CO2 from the air producing carbonic acid -- it doesn't stay deionized for long. And what about non-ionized contaminants?

Makes sense.
