Default Watering Advise Please?

Hi Guys,I'm Mark

Just a quick question for you experts out there.I'm planning on growing Nepenthes in my Orchid house but there is no way I would be able to provide distilled/purified water to these guys.The greenhouse recieves water almost daily via mist sprayers,so that's the only water they will ever receive.What is this "bad effect" of tap-water on Nepenthes which I keep reading about?Surely not all growers can afford distilled water and must be using municipal water to?What is going to happen to my plants if I only use tap-water?

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.
