GH a little on the higher end?

The KH looks fine, if I recall correctly, 3-8 is desired, and I have 6 degrees.
The GH is a bit above the desired range, specifically, 16 degrees, whereas 7-14 is desired.
Every other parameter is fine (ph is approx 7.4-7.8, ammonia near 0.00, nitrite 0.00, nitrate ~5-10 ppm, temp is also consistently 16.0 -16.5 C). Is this slightly elevated GH not that big of a concern, or should I drop everything and get some gallons of distilled water ASAP?
