Tucker RO Preserve Membrane Storage Solution

What it is

The Tucker 20000 RO Preserve is an RO preservative for storing a reverse osmosis membrane over the winter or another long period. It prevents biological fouling and keeps solids from forming a bond with the RO membrane while the system sits unused.

When to use it

Tucker's manuals say an RO membrane should never be allowed to dry or collect stagnant water, and should be run at least every two weeks even off-season. If you must store the system long term, or in freezing conditions, the Fill N Go manual says you may use an RO preservative to winterize it and orders #20000.

How to store a housing

To store an RO housing, the manual says to remove the plumbing from the housing fittings, plug the fitting in the non-serviceable end, stand the housing on end, follow the RO Preserve instructions and plug the top two fittings.
