Put a post up with the heading Newmarket and someone will tell you what their tds is. 600 sounds more like a waste water reading
OK, here's some info.I live in Southampton; the measures for my water versus yours ( from http://waterquality.anglianwater.com/map.aspx using a newmarket postcode ) are: SO15 CB8CaCO3 262 329 Ca mg/l 104.8 131.6 °Clarke 18.34 23 °French 26.2 33 °German 14.67 18.7So you look like you have about 25% more dissolved salts than I do. Unfortunately the water companies don't do TDS numbers, just the ones above. You might want to try your own postcode in there in case I've picked totally the wrong area.My water has a TDS of 279, so your reading of 600 sounds VERY suspect to me. Should be nearer 350. Something's up...Hope this helps,Vin

One would be ok for the amount of water you will use,but two is the way to go
Both of those are perfect. When you get the vessels let us know. I think there are vids on youtube of how to fill them. Unscrew the lid, fill 3/4 full with a funnell or similar,fill with water and crew the lid back on
A di is a di no matter where you get it from,its the resin that matters. Why buy a new one from da when there is a second hand one on ebay for £20ish?Mains pressure will never be below 40psi. At 40 psi you should still be getting a tds reading as high as 15. If you drill out he hole into the feed water pipe this will allow more water to access the ro. Unless your ro is a mile away from your tap then pressure/flow rate should be fine
My mate had the same problem and when he eventually looked in his resin vessel it was empty! have you checked?
