he told me it wasnt distilled.. he said i could buy distilled water at sav-on

RO/DI... all he said was those units have 3 filters and cost 150.00
he said his has 12 filters and cost thousands..

So i thought i would try to get some advice here

It really depends on if the filters are changed when they need to be. Check the TDS of the water and that will be a good indicator.
