Notes:
1.
Harness in ppm is equivalent to harness in mg/l
2.
Grains/gallon = ppm divided by 17.1
3.
Copper and cupronickel heat exchangers are not recommended for pool applications for water outside the
range of the table.
4.
Saltwater applications (approx. 25,000 ppm) require secondary heat exchangers due to copper piping
between the heat exchanger and the unit fittings.
