New to Ro

Once the season starts and you do your wash how long can the RO sit around before being used again?
Thanks Brian

If you do a full wash, it will be good for a few weeks. If you just did a hot permeate wash and then a cold permeate rinse a few days is fine days, depending on the storage temperature. The warmer it gets the less time it will be OK.

OK thanks they don't tell you that in the book they give you. The RO is in our kitchen in the sugar house the temp in there is around 66 at night warmer in the daytime as its used most days.
Thanks Brian

You might then want to do a full wash (soap wash followed by a permeate rinse) to have it cleaner or it could get "funky" at 66F+ for several days.

That's been my experience as well.

So you are saying do a soap wash followed by a permeate rinse and I should be ok?
