Adding only water will dilute the coolant mixture and will raise the freeze point. Also, it is generally recommended that you change the coolant every 5 years. The rust and corrosion preventative will deplete over time.
So buy the PROPER coolant and top it off for now, but plan to get the cooling system drained, flushed and refilled soon.
