Under normal operation, the WaterPro RO System requires little maintenance. Read this chapter to learn: The Maintenance Schedule Sanitizing the System Service Tips Maintenance Schedule As needed Change prefilter and carbon/prefilter if more than 500 gallons of feed water have been processed.
Chapter 5: Maintaining Your WaterPro RO System Quarterly Change air vent filter. Annually Clean RO membrane. Disinfect unit. All monthly activities. Biennial (once every two years) Replace RO membrane if the normalized (flow rate at 25°C see chart on page 30) flow rate has decreased by 20% or more.
Chapter 5: Maintaining Your WaterPro RO System Sanitization Sanitization is necessary when the RO element or storage tank become biologically fouled. Biological fouling of the RO is an obstruction due to living or dead bacteria on the membrane or tank surface. This may occur if the RO is left stagnant without flushing for more than a week. If biological fouling of the membrane occurs, the unit should be sanitized with 0.1% (wt/wt) formaldehyde as follows: 1.
