Definitely get a good test ! If you do go rainwater and have copper
water pipes, you need to be very careful with LOW PH rainwater !
Might have to raise PH or lose copper piping with rain.

Suggestion :
I start with a thorough water test: I have used these folks at National
Testing Labs for 20+ years. Excellent service!

Multipage test results for lots of different stuff in water talk with
them about what you have and what test they would suggest.
If you want, contact me off list glad to send a copy of my house well
test for your perusal.
With the data they provide you from can narrow down what it is that you
are wanting to be rid of & this opens up the options for treatment &
filtration.
I filter for 2 specific items: very light arsenic [1 refillable
cartridge for this] & sulfur dioxide [we have hot springs down 600'
below the surface & at high water times of the year slight sulfur smell
turns out a carbon filter eliminates this]. 2 issues & 2 filters, done.
I hope this helps & does not muddy the water, Ha!
