Jeff Brimble is the man to ask about rainwater, but should be really good to use and as he can clean a whole house with a thimble full of water i'm sure there is more than enough falling out of the sky.

i'm near the broads have and have thought about piping that straight into the ro  :-\

tap TDS changes all the time - wait till a mains breaks and they bodge a repair to see how high TDS can go   :-X

Mine has shot up too. From 028 to 035, shocking!!

It will be a change of reservoir most probably. I'm only a few miles from you daz, they seem to switch them quite frquently round here, I'm just hoping mine stays as is.
