Why not just distill it? Wouldn't the effect be the same? We use distilled water for laboratory use because of its purity. Why take the water out of the air? Why not just distill it?

The real problem is the quality of the water before it is injected into the bottle at the plant. Bottled water is, in many cases, merely municipal tap water, and so has some significant drawbacks, the least of which is that it is unregulated for quality by the FDA and EPA in interstate commerce. Next, of course, is the wasted plastic not to mention the carbon emissions generated to make the bottles, fill the bottles and transport the bottles to market. Then there is the fact that approximately 15% or so of the bottles are actually recycled. This is an environmental nightmare. One of the solutions to the water problem is our DewPointe™ atmospheric water system. The remarkable DewPointe™ makes water from the air, about 2-3 gallons a day or more in more humid climates. The water is 99.99% pure. It is completely free from all manmade and natural contaminants including petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, heavy metals, etc. It is "just pure water".

Plastic does slowly expel minute amounts various chemicals over time, what those chemicals are actually depend on how it was manufactured. But that release takes a very long time. I don't think levels released would be high enough over such a short period. Properties of plastic kind of evaporate over a very long time, similar in process to stainless steal. (not that the two materials are anything alike.) One of the fantastic things about plastic is that it doesn’t dissolve in water.
