Can You Use Deionized Water for Coolant?

Yes. Deionized water is one of the waters coolant makers name for mixing antifreeze concentrate, along with distilled water. Its dissolved minerals are removed, so it won’t leave scale in the radiator or use up the coolant’s corrosion inhibitors the way hard tap water can. Mix it at the ratio on your coolant label, often 50/50.

Why Does My Humidifier Leave White Dust?

The white dust is minerals from your tap water. Ultrasonic and impeller humidifiers break water into a fine mist without boiling it, so the calcium and magnesium dissolved in the water go into the air too. When the droplets dry, the minerals settle as white dust on furniture, floors and screens. Using low-mineral water such as deionized water is the most direct fix.
