Rodi filter question

Kilich · 07/17/2020, 03:06 PM

Just got an aqua fx, and made 20 gallons of water with it. I’ll probably use it once or twice a month.

The question is after I use it, can I leave the residual water that is left in each canister sitting next to each stage of filter? Or should I empty the water that’s left in there after each use?

Leave it.
Don’t let it dry out.
That reduces the life of your filter.

IF the membrane ever dries out it is useless.
