How long are you supposed to run permeate through membranes before introducing sap?

I think it depends on the size of your RO, and if you've just run a soap or acid wash? Is the membrane brand new or just out of the storage solution?

Is this an RO Bucket type? I would suggest 10 gallons of unchlorinated water.

I just changed out a pair on my RO bucket. If I remember correctly, the membranes or the paper in the box said to flush for 2 hours with unchlorinated water. That's what I did anyway and they seemed to be fine.
