100 GPD RO Membrane – Application & Use Case

A 100 GPD (gallons per day) reverse osmosis membrane is one of the most commonly used membrane sizes in residential RO systems. It offers an excellent balance between production speed and contaminant rejection, making it suitable for both traditional under-sink RO systems and select countertop RO applications.

This membrane is fully compatible with MyWaterClub Countertop RO systems and is commonly used when a moderate flow rate is needed without sacrificing water quality. It is also widely used in standard under-sink RO systems with or without a storage tank.

Compared to lower-GPD membranes, a 100 GPD membrane provides faster water production while maintaining strong rejection performance, making it a popular choice for everyday household drinking water needs.

What a 100 GPD RO Membrane Removes

Like other TFC (Thin Film Composite) reverse osmosis membranes, a 100 GPD membrane removes contaminants by rejecting dissolved substances at the molecular level. Instead of targeting individual chemicals, the membrane reduces entire classes of dissolved impurities, allowing it to reduce thousands of potential contaminants that may be present in water.

Typical reductions include:

  • Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
  • Fluoride
  • Heavy metals (lead, arsenic, mercury, chromium)
  • Nitrates and nitrites
  • Dissolved salts and minerals (calcium, magnesium, sodium)
  • Many dissolved inorganic and synthetic compounds

Actual performance depends on feed water quality, pressure, temperature, and proper pre-filtration. Not all contaminants are present in every water source.

What Does 100 GPD Mean?

GPD (Gallons Per Day) refers to the maximum amount of purified water the membrane can produce under ideal laboratory conditions (approximately 77°F / 25°C water temperature, ~60 psi pressure, and low TDS).
In real-world residential use, production is typically lower due to variations in water temperature, pressure, and feed water TDS.

Approximate Real-World Production

Membrane Rating Approx. Gallons per Hour* Best Use
75 GPD ~3.0 – 3.5 gal/hr Under-sink RO systems & countertop RO systems

*Actual production varies based on feed water pressure, temperature, TDS, and system configuration.

Why Choose a 100 GPD RO Membrane?

A 100 GPD membrane is an excellent choice for users who want faster water production while maintaining strong filtration efficiency. It is often selected as a middle-ground option between slower, high-efficiency membranes and higher-GPD membranes designed for maximum output.

This membrane may be ideal if you:

  • Use a countertop RO system without a storage tank
  • Use a standard under-sink RO system (with or without a tank)
  • Want a good balance between flow rate and rejection performance
  • Need reliable daily drinking water production

Compatibility & Installation Notes

This membrane uses the standard 1812 size, making it compatible with a wide range of residential RO systems.

Fits systems using:

  • 1812 RO membrane housings
  • MyWaterClub Countertop RO systems
  • Standard under-sink RO systems (tank-based or tankless designs)
  • Systems designed around a 75 GPD membrane

Important Notes

  • Proper sediment and carbon pre-filtration is required to protect the membrane
  • Carbon filters must remove chlorine/chloramine before water reaches the membrane
  • Flow restrictor selection should match membrane capacity

Maintenance & Replacement

  • Typical membrane lifespan: 2–3 years, depending on water quality and pre-filtration
  • Replace sooner if water production slows or TDS reduction decreases
  • Regular replacement of sediment and carbon filters helps extend membrane life

Performance varies based on feed water conditions, pressure, temperature, and system configuration.

Contaminant Reduction – Standard RO Membrane (Average Performance)

Reverse osmosis membranes reduce contaminants by rejecting dissolved substances at the molecular level.
The table below shows typical contaminant categories reduced by a standard RO membrane and
average reduction ranges commonly observed in residential systems.

Contaminant Category Examples Average Reduction*
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Overall mineral, contaminants & dissolved solids  95–99%
Fluoride Fluoride ions 90–98%
Heavy Metals Lead, arsenic, mercury, chromium 95–99%
Nitrates / Nitrites Nitrate (NO₃), nitrite (NO₂) 85–95%
Dissolved Salts & Minerals Calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium 95–99%
Inorganic Contaminants Sulfates, phosphates, chlorides 95–99%
Some Synthetic Compounds Select dissolved industrial or agricultural residues 80–95%


*Reduction percentages represent typical performance ranges for standard residential thin-film composite (TFC)
reverse osmosis membranes. Actual results vary based on feed water quality, pressure, temperature,
membrane condition, and proper pre-filtration. Not all contaminants are present in every water source.
