Thread: NEW!! Ultra High Performance RO Membranes!

    So how do you calculate your RO membrane's rejection rate?

    You'll need two numbers to get started:
    TDS of your feedwater (tap water)
    TDS of your RO water (not DI water)

    Plug those numbers into this formula:
    1 - (RO TDS/Tap TDS)

    For an example, let's say your tap water TDS is 287 ppm, and your RO water TDS is 17 ppm.
    1- (17/287)=
    1- (0.06)=
    0.94, or 94%

    This means that 94% of the TDS in the tap water DOES NOT make it through to your RO water - it is sent to the drain with your waste water.

    A higher the rejection rate the better.

    And in answer to some questions:
    1. YES! - these membranes fit in standard residential RO membrane housings
    2. The flow restrictor to use with these membranes is BFS-217 Capillary flow restrictor, pre-trimmed for 75 gpd
