RE: RO membranes

I have one that is still running after 10 years, and is have heard of
them only lasting a few months it depends on how hard your water is.
Also if it is very cold where you are that slows down your output
substantially.

How often do you have to change your membranes ?
How do you notice they are dead ?

I currrently higly suspect mine...(TFM36)
Produce twice less / day and seems to reject more then before.
It's 1.5 years old, protected by 2 big prefilters.
Tap water is ±850µS, eluate ±35µS
Is there a way to "revamp" them ? Even only for few weeks ?
It doesn't look possible to operate it 'reversed' :(
