Can Soft Water be Used in a Steam Iron?
Soft water contains minerals which will deposit in steam irons as the water is evaporated. Best results are obtained when using distilled water or demineralized water. Other sources of supply are the dehumidifier as well as rain water. However, soft water is preferred to hard water, since the deposits can be dissolved and flushed out, while scale deposited from hard water is more difficult to remove.
