In theory, the water is distilled, cause it came from vapor,
without all the dissolved stuff. In reality, there may be some
dust from the air that sticks to the cold coil, and ends up in
the water.

If you want pure distilled water, you will need to condense the water
vapour on glass or stainless steel. Since I don't see too many air
conditioners using these materials, the condensate often picks up
something from the metal that it condenses on.
