That depends on the amperage going through the ER HyZor and how long the engine is running. If the ER HyZor is using 2 Amps, it will use about 5 mL of water per hour.
A. Distilled water will reduce maintenance requirements. De-ionized water can be used in a pinch but NOT recommended. Do NOT use tap water. Tap water is full of impurities. Water turns into Brown’s Gas (a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen), which leaves all the...
A. Simply wait until you can get steam distilled water. The ER HyZor will keep itself shut off until water is added. Most pharmacies and grocery stores sell steam distilled water.

A. The ER HyZor should be standing up straight for the most efficient operation. A couple of degrees of angle in any direction, won’t cause problems.
