As for TDS testing system, that is pretty old thinking. Nowadays, water industry tech folks go by specific ions. I think the field test kit strips are pretty cheap. Call up companies in yellow pages. Should be ok.

I checked out my water supplier's water quality report, and found that TDS is only one out of many many tests they do. So yeah, I think you'd be misleading yourself if the only tool you have to judge water quality is a TDS meter.
