Reply to comment by Xyspade in Please recommend humidifier. by rtwyyn

I bought a cheap home distiller a few years ago & it paid for itself in weeks (I have three humidifiers so I was running 2 gallons a day.)
If you’re not using distilled water, you’re going to spend more buying new humidifiers more often in the long run.

I didn't even know distillers are a thing! But wouldn't you have to clean those out too? lol

Unfortunately, yes. Our area has especially hard water, so it’s kind of a pain in the ass, but it’s worth it not to waste so many plastic jugs / keep my houseplants (& sinuses) happy all winter.
ETA: this one is the one I have they have nicer ones, but this little one has served me for three years now.
