water.
– Do not use inhibitors or other additives!
– No Toxic chemicals such as used for boiler treatment,
shall be introduced into the portable water used for
space heating.
– The maximum permissible flow rate of the
GB142-24/30 this is 11 GPM (gal./min.), for the
GB142-45 is 15 GPM and for the GB142-60 is
20 GPM.
– When using oxygen-permeable pipes, e. g. for floor
heating systems, you must separate the system using
heat exchangers. Unsuitable heating system water
promotes the formation of sludge and corrosion.
This may damage the heat exchanger or affect its
operation.
