Yes, but it is RECOMMENDED that you use distilled water. We use distilled water.

Yes, it can despite what the others have said. You would need a 5 gallon water bottle and optional pump available directly from the manufacturer. This setup is available for offices etc. that don't have plumbing access to tap into.

I use tap water because I am confident of the water in my area. I don't see any reason why we can't use bottled water. It is probably better.

I asked my doctor and he strongly recommended distilled water only -- no tap, no filtered. There's just too much of a risk of infection from tap water. I wouldn't chance it.

Do NOT use hot tap water. It comes from the hot water tank - think about it. That should never be used for drinking. Boil the water in a kettle instead.

Yes, but it will be quite expensive depending on the hardness of your water. If you need purer water than comes out of your tap, I suggest a reverse osmosis system. It wont be 0 ppm, but it will be close and much more economical in most situations. You will still have to make the amount you need and then wash with it as the deionization resin and the r/o system are both kinda slow.

There is a pressure release valve on the top that allows the liquid to come out of the tap at the bottom. You might be able to remove that and reuse it, but I'm not sure that it would work.

Yes, it works great just filling up the water from the top. You can then use filtered water if you want.

yes, you can use the tap with this hose attachment. It has a valve to divert the water from the tap to the hose when you want to use the hose. When you want to use the hose you have to turn the valve, the water to the hose does not stay on all the time. I hooked this sprayer up to the water coming in for the toilet with a diverter instead of hooking it up to my sink faucet and it works great.

I do not know, as I have never used it with tap water. The instructions say do not use regular tap water. However I love the machine and the water. Nothing but Great things to say.

Distilled water is best. If your tap water is low in minerals, it should work fine.

We have a reverse osmosis filter water line, and I use that. But I think that just tap water or water out of a filter jug should be fine

i just use regular old tap water, it has a filter in it (doesnt need to be replaced)... they say to clean it out once a week... im sure if you really wanted to you could use filtered water, but its fine with just tap water :)

I would suggest you look at this website http://santevia.com for manufacturers information. To answer your question though, you can use tap water in this picture.

I don't think so, it adds oxygen to water to give you more energy, try a brita travel bottle to make tap water more pure..

I use it with filtered water, but I don't see a problem using it with tap water since it has a big filter inside the tank. I do not get any of the white powder that usually comes with ultrasonic humidifiers.
