Some ideas defy the laws of physics, others are plain stupid, this one ticks both boxes.
Even if it was possible to boil water to purify it the amount of energy needed would be massive compared to the cost of an RO or even DI only.

Collecting evaporated water is just as dumb for the sheer amount you would need or get.

Somtimes you need to tell people in the bluntest terms that what they are suggesting is not workable.

Anyone with teenage kids will understand.

its not such a bad idea, i once made a still in bosnia you need one steel bucket with a burner underneath and fill it with water and rotten plums, then some copper brake pipe coiled going from the lid of the bucket to another bucket. the copper has to be coiled then you need to run cold water over the copper and the other bucket fills with distilled plum brandy or slivovich. if you just want pure water miss the plums out but if you drink this stuff with the plums you wont care how pure your water is

i used to work with a ukranian lad and he used to make the most amazing "vodka" distilling old beer that bars were throwing like john smiths and stuff

the still was tiny in his kitchen sink

It'll cost far to much to boil the water.

I think boiling it only kills any bacteria and organisms anyway not sure if it removes any particles....
