Exposure to phthalate compromises brain function in adult vertebrates

I was thinking of putting a Reverse Osmosis filter in my Kitchen. Would RO water just leach this chemical out then from plastic containers? Since the RO water is pretty pure. All the RO units I've seen are made of plastic.

My dilemma is that a massive car battery plant is being built right next to a local creek. The city water intake is down river. They obviously placed the plant next to a creek for a reason. The creek already smells like sewage because they have a water treatment plant on it. My nose tells me not to trust the quality of their "treating of water", since the creek smells like sewage and has algae blooms.

So was thinking of getting a kitchen RO unit. Currently use a Britta filter.
