    Damn sure is it fucking tap water that been flitered. Worked 20 years in the water industry don’t talk to me like I don’t know.

    So whatever in your tap water in your bottle water. No magic chemicals just good fashion chlorine same shit put in bleach.

    Hell some small water departments actually put bleach in the water I know been there when they did it.

      The point is the water stays clear (i.e. does not turn brown within a month) not because of chemicals but because it’s been sterilized (and then put in a sealed bottle). If it sterilization didn’t work, distilled water would have some serious issues.

      The water stays clean because it is free of bacteria (and also potentially free of the nutrients bacteria need to grow) … unlike well water which is often pulling from shallow wells which are not close to sterile.
