TDS from the tap can fluctuate seasonally. If one reservoir was running low & the local water board switch to a different source etc etc,..

Compare with triple distilled Vodka as a guide to see if its working OK, it looks like it is, tds can vary depending upon which borehole  the waterboard draw the water from. Start recycling rainwater.  8)

also if there has been any waterworks repair work they flush the system and can effect tapwater tds.
