RO (Reverse Osmosis) systems contain three, four, or five filter stages. We'll go over some general maintenance tips that apply to most RO units.
1: To begin, water passes through a pre-filter to safeguard the sensitive RO membranes. Dirt, silt, sand, and other sediments are filtered out by this pre-filter cartridge. The Micron Filter should be updated at least once a year.The pre-filter might foul or become clogged if it is not properly maintained or changed on a regular basis.
2: A carbon filter, which is designed to eliminate chlorine and other taste or odour pollutants, is usually used next. Because chlorine can damage the RO membrane, this is critical. Also, once in a year, this carbon filter should be updated.
3: The separation technique of reverse osmosis (RO) employs pressure to drive water through a membrane. The contamination is retained on one side of the membrane while the pure solvent (water) passes through to the other.
The lifespan of the filter and membrane will vary depending on local water conditions and usage.
4: At the end of the cycle, a carbon filter step is frequently added to "polish" the water. This stage eliminates any leftover flavour or odours, resulting in excellent drinking water. Every 6-9 months, the carbon filter should be replaced.
Apart from these steps, the following should be kept in mind!
1: Dosing chemical for anti-scaling (As per requirement);
2: Pump for raw water (checking/servicing if necessary);
3: High-pressure pump (if necessary, check/service);
4: On-site monitoring of membrane flow rate and TDS;
RO systems should be maintained on a regular basis for maximum efficiency.

Is RO system required to be cleaned?
Yes, a sanitization and recharge of the system should be done once a year. This maintenance can be done by a local water treatment professional or by consulting the owner's manual for your RO system.
