Years ago I had the idea of watering my plants with condensate from my

Someone knowledgeable told me the condensate was toxic. I have no
recollection of why that was (or even why I was watering my plants with
distilled water, for that matter) or if your filters would help at all; but
the idea is so obvious that it would be done if practical.
Every now and then an idea is too obvious for anyone to think of doing
it...till someone finally does, and the rest of the world says "oh
duh...why didn't I think of that?" Even if the water collected weren't
potable-safe, it could still be used for other purposes to conserve the
potable supply.
