security against what? contams? normal tap water is going to be fine for misting unless you live somewhere like Flint, MI. I think any TC will tell you the same.

Yup, It wouldnt make a difference. misting is bringing dirty room air in with it anyway and a healthy colonized sub is able to fend off contams

Never even though of boiling misting water. Might make sense if you get “hard” water from the tap. Just to get rid of some of the mineral content and make it easier for the myc to absorb? Just a theory...

The only concern is using soft-water, which has a higher than normal sodium content. If your misting bottle looks and smells fine, there’s no worry, you’re misting more microbes out of the air and onto your surface than are coming from your misting water and those microbes aren’t a concern, either.

My water from the softener eats my PC, I don't remember if I used RO for my coir last. Probably will though. For $0.39/Gal I don't mind paying.
