Note RO/DI water if exposed to air will collect dust,etc... and its TDS will rise some..
Seems like you have a good LFS with a quality water source..

But you have your own RO/DI now so...

...absorption of CO2 will also cause stored RO/DI water's TDS to rise.

Now that's a high resolution TDS meter!

I would call that zero.

But, sure, you should use your own, since you have it. It's cheaper.
