The GE Merlin Reverse Osmosis Membrane # 1238342 is the replacement RO Membrane for the tankless GE Merlin Reverse Osmosis System. The GE Merlin RO System requires two of these membranes and they need to be replaced simultaneously. The TLC-350 has a packaged shelf life of approximately 8 months when refrigerated and should be replaced every 2-4 years. It is also knows as Part # 1238342, 3027637, 4000569. The reverse osmosis membranes contain a foodgrade preservative for storage and shipment. New membranes should be flushed for one hour prior to use. This flush removes the preservative. The preservative is not harmful but makes the product water taste objectionable.
