If your water is cold the best thing to do is use a very long supply line, coil it up and put it in a 5G bucket of water with a heater. So the supply water comes out of the plumbing cold but warms up as it goes through the bucket. I keep the heater set at about 85 degrees and it has made a huge difference in production. Less waste water too.

I forget the ideal temperature but 85 degrees is working well for me (water still wouldn't warm to 85 in the time it goes through the bucket but it warms enough) and I get 0TDS.
