I have recently moved into a flat and havve a water meter and my tds from tap is 250 ish,I use about 400 litres of pure water from a tank in my flat and my last water bill was a shock,I have a 4040 to system with a booster pump but I am at the top flat which is second story,is there any way I can just use a large di vessel and fill up from my flat to save on waste water and how much resin would I use a month,thanks in advance.

At 250 I think you'll end up spending more on resin than you will on water

I live in a flat as well and the only answer is to become very efficient at using as little water as possible whilst not compromising speed or quality.
Resin only will cost a fortune at 250ppm from the tap. I know, I've tried it at about 200 - 220ppm. What ever Gardiner's resin cost meter thing on his website says, at 250ppm you'll be lucky to get a few thousand litres from a bag.
Also, if you've had the meter less than a year or have been in the property less than a year, you can, by law, go back to paying a flat rate charge for water but don't mention you have a RO system.

Is that correct that you can ask to stay on a flat charge for water ?

Yes it is. I'm have a meter and I'm on a flat rate.

Really? I've never heard of this?
Do you know how much your bill would be if you paid the metered rate? And how much do you pay a month on flat rate now?
If you don't mind me asking.
My water bill is quite high. If I could reduce it at all I'd be pleased.
