Use good quality soft water such as suitable tap water
for the coolant.

Use a long-life coolant (LLC) in order to prevent
freezing and rust. (This generator is filled with coolant
having a 30%-LLC (Besco LLC Super Type E) mixing
ratio when shipped from the factory.)

Use an LLC mixing ratio within a range of 30% to 45%
according to the minimum outdoor air temperature.

Use LLC in the sub tank also.
