CAUTION
To prevent undetected dilution or loss of glycol, do not use an automatic makeup water system.
Note: Glycol concentration impacts the heat transfer. Chiller performance can be negatively
affected by a higher concentration of glycol.

concentration versus freezing point for their product. Use that information to determine the
glycol concentration.
