I put a reverse osmosis system under the sink. That way I have distilled water on tap for my salt water fish tank and my humidors. Mine was a high volume one and cost about $250, but they can be had lots cheaper.
We refill our water bottles from it, too. So we really get our money's worth.

I have one too. I love mine. It has something like a 3 gallon tank mounted in the floor joists under the sink. I use it for everything. Really makes a difference in cooking as well. I don't know if I'd call it distilled. but it's pretty damn pure.

The only thing I didn't like about it was the price. Installed, I believe it was around 800.

Mine is a zero ppm, and it has the 3 gallon tank, too. It's specifically for making zero ppm (distilled) water. I put mine in myself, it wasn't a big deal.
Mine is like this. I couldn't find the exact one I got, this Air, Water, Ice place changes their models pretty often.
I got a tester with it, too. You stick it in a glass of water and it tells you how much junk is in the water by parts per million. That's how you tell if you have to change the membrane or filters.
I've never had to change any of that stuff yet and I've had it for at least two years, I'm thinking.
