Ethylene and Propylene Glycol Factors
A glycol solution is required when the unit with condition as mentioned. The use of glycol will reduce
the performance of the unit depending on concentration.

Units operating with glycol solutions are not included in the ARI Certification Program.
Altitude correction factors
Performance tables are based at sea level. Elevations other than sea level affect the performance of
the unit. The decreased air density will reduce condenser capacity and reduce the unit’s
performance. For performance at elevations other than sea level refer to below table Maximum
allowable altitude is 1800 meters.
