Key Benefits
- Delivers up to 14 gallons per day of purified water, meeting typical household needs efficiently.
- Resists chlorine degradation better than standard membranes, extending component life.
- Enhances water taste and clarity by effectively reducing contaminants and impurities.
- Compatible with most residential RO systems, making replacement straightforward and hassle-free.
- Lightweight design facilitates easy installation and replacement without requiring special tools.
- Supports consistent system performance, helping maintain optimal water flow rates.
How It Works
The S1224RS Microline membrane operates within a residential reverse osmosis system by filtering water through a cellulose triacetate (CTA) thin-film layer. This membrane selectively allows water molecules to pass while blocking dissolved salts, chlorine, and other impurities. As feed water flows through, contaminants are rejected and flushed away, leaving purified water for household use.
Installed inside the RO unit, the membrane functions as the core filtration barrier, ensuring only clean, safe water reaches your taps. Its specialized CTA material enhances durability against common disinfectants, making it ideal for typical residential water sources.
What to Expect
Once installed, you’ll immediately notice a fresher taste and clearer water output compared to untreated supply. During the first days, the membrane will settle in and begin efficiently filtering impurities, improving overall water quality. Over the following weeks and months, the membrane maintains steady performance with minimal maintenance, thanks to its resistant construction.
Regular system upkeep, such as periodic sanitization and pre-filter replacements, will help preserve the membrane’s effectiveness and extend its service life. Expect reliable operation under typical household water conditions without frequent membrane replacements.
