Specifications – Qualified System 
Performance
Because the performance of a Reverse  
Osmosis Membrane is highly dependent 
upon pressure, temperature and Total  
Dissolved Solids (TDS), the following should 
be used for comparison purposes only.
Industry standards measure RO Membranes 
performance with no back pressure on the 
product water, at 60 psi (414 kPa) and 77°F 
(25°C). Further conditions on the above are 
250 ppm TDS and a 30.6% recovery rate.  
Production rate and TDS reduction figures 
are for a new Membrane that has been 
rinsed for 24 hours. The production rate of 
a new Membrane can decrease by 10% per 
year or more, depending upon the scaling 
and fouling tendencies of the Feed Water.
Measured at 50 psi, 77°±2°F, and 717 mg/l 
TDS per NSF/ANSI Standard 58. 
Efficiency rating is the percentage of the 
influent water to the system that is available 
to the user as reverse osmosis treated water. 
This measurement is taken under operating 
conditions that approximate typical  
daily usage.
Recovery rating is the percentage of the 
influent water to the membrane portion  
of the system that is available to the user 
as reverse osmosis treated water when the 
system is operated without a storage Tank  
or when the storage Tank is bypassed.

NON-POTABLE WATER SOURCES: 

Do not attempt to use this product to make safe drinking water from non-potable water sources. 

Do not use the system on microbiologically unsafe water, or water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the 

system. This system is certified for cyst reduction and may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.

INSTALLATIONS IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS: 

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires installation be 

performed by a licensed plumber and does not permit the use of saddle valves. Plumbing code 248—CMR of the Commonwealth of 

Massachusetts must be followed in these cases.

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown water quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.  

Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.

Filter is only to be used with cold water. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.
