Notes: 
 Installing Multiaqua chillers in parallel is recommended. 

An adjustable valve must be used to throttle the discharge liquid solution flow rate to appropriate levels based
on capacity and glycol mix percentages.

Piping resistance or pressure drop is measured in feet of head. A foot of head is the amount of pressure drop imposed
in lifting liquid solution one foot. Pumps in the Multiaqua system are designed to move rated liquid solution flow 
 in GPMs.
