I’ve read that regular dehumidifiers don’t shield the condenser coils so the collected water can have higher levels of metals in it. Most also only have a simple dust filter so any smaller airborne particles will end up in the water too. I looked into it when I bought mine as a potential source of emergency water or for watering houseplants, but it seems the suggestion is to toss the water unless the device manual indicates otherwise.
