Why not just get some RO water from your LFS and add it manually?

Yes, but if you have reef tank make sure it is not made with copper-based

You do have to watch for this with some distillers they can use copper
condensing units in them, which will release some copper into the water,
which can build up in your tank.

You are waiting for RO/D unit or a RO/DI booster pump ? Will this booster pump
produce a
pressure that is acceptable to the RO/DI. How high a pressure dose it produce ?
What is
you tap water pressure. ?
