TLC-35, RO Membrane, TFC 35 Gpd, RE1812-35

High-Performance TLC-35 RO Membrane for Cleaner, Safer Residential Water Filtration

The TLC-35, RO Membrane, TFC 35 Gpd, RE1812-35 by Water Softener Plus is engineered to deliver consistent, high-quality water purification for your home. Unlike generic membranes, this residential RO component offers superior filtration efficiency and durability, ensuring your reverse osmosis system operates at peak performance. Its reliable thin-film composite (TFC) design addresses common water treatment challenges by reducing contaminants and improving taste without sacrificing flow rate.

Key Benefits

• Enhances water purity by effectively removing dissolved solids and impurities
• Maintains steady 35 gallons per day (GPD) output for reliable household use
• Extends the life of your RO system by preventing membrane fouling and buildup
• Improves overall water taste and odor for a more refreshing drinking experience
• Compact design fits standard residential RO housings, making installation straightforward
• Durable construction reduces the frequency of replacements, saving time and money

How It Works

The TLC-35 RO membrane functions as a critical filtration barrier within your reverse osmosis system. Water is forced through the semi-permeable thin-film composite layer, which blocks contaminants such as heavy metals, chlorine, and other dissolved solids while allowing clean water molecules to pass. This selective filtration process ensures that only purified water reaches your taps.

Installed inside the RE1812-35 housing, this membrane works in tandem with pre-filters and post-filters to maximize the removal of impurities and deliver safe, great-tasting water directly to your home.

What to Expect

Immediately after installation, you will notice a significant improvement in water clarity and taste. During the first few days to weeks, the membrane will stabilize as it flushes out any residual manufacturing residues, enhancing performance. Over time, the TLC-35 maintains consistent filtration efficiency, requiring minimal maintenance when paired with proper pre-filter care.

With routine system checks and timely pre-filter replacements, this membrane provides reliable, long-term service, helping you avoid frequent system failures or water quality issues.

What’s Inside

• Thin-Film Composite (TFC) Membrane Layer – The core filtration element responsible for removing up to 99% of dissolved contaminants.
• Polyamide Active Layer – Enhances rejection rates of salts and organic compounds, critical for residential water safety.
• Support Layer – Provides structural integrity to withstand system pressure without compromising flow rate.
• Standard RE1812-35 Housing Compatibility – Ensures a secure fit within common residential RO systems for easy replacement.
