With all anti-freeze fluids and corrosion inhibitors, it is extremely important to observe the manufacturer’s recom-
mended concentration levels and to check the concentration regularly.
In the case of anti-freeze fluids, it should be noted that the efficiency of fluid-to-fluid heat transfer diminishes as
the anti-freeze concentration increases.
