Active Aqua RO Membrane

The 100gpd rating stands for 100 gallons per day. This indicates the maximum amount of purified water the membrane can produce under ideal operating conditions over a 24-hour period.

This is a standard-sized replacement membrane designed to fit most 100gpd reverse osmosis housings. However, it is always best to verify the dimensions of your current housing to ensure a proper seal.

While the lifespan depends heavily on your local water quality and usage volume, most hydroponic growers replace the membrane every 12 to 24 months. If you notice a significant drop in water production or a rise in your PPM readings, it is time for a change.

This membrane is highly effective at reducing dissolved solids, heavy metals, and contaminants, which is essential for precise nutrient control in hydroponics. While it provides exceptionally pure water, it is not designed to remove 100% of all possible contaminants.

Yes, it is standard practice to flush a new membrane for at least 30 to 60 minutes before using the water for your plants. This clears out any storage preservatives or loose carbon fines from the manufacturing process.
