Store it in a container. Bucket or wheelie-bin (depending on how mush you are using) with an aquarium heater in it and a power head. Then wait. If you are making large volumes you can get large black bins from B&Q for a few quid.

If this is for a freshwater aquarium why not "cut" the RO water with warn water from your tap. If you do a 50-50 cut this also saves on additives such as kent RO right.

I assume you are not using pure OR water in your tank. As this is actually detrimental to fish health.

Edit to add.

If your tank temp only goes down by about 2 degrees this is nothing to worry about. My tank drops about 3 degrees when i do a water change. Fish are fine.
