4.2 System Tolerance Information
Freeze tolerance limits are based upon an assumed set of environmental conditions.
Extended periods of cold weather, including ambient air temperatures above the
specified limit, may cause freezing in exposed parts of the system. It is the owner’s
responsibility to protect the system in accordance with the Supplier’s instructions if the
air temperature is anticipated to approach the specified freeze tolerance limit.
