Page 16: Open Loop Ground Water Systems
ASTON LOW SILL SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Open Loop Ground Water Systems Always maintain water pressure in the heat exchanger by placing water control valves at the outlet of the unit to prevent mineral precipitation. Use a closed, bladder-type expansion tank to minimize mineral formation due to air exposure. Ensure proper water flow through the unit by checking pressure drop across the heat exchanger and comparing it to the figures in unit capacity data tables in the specification catalog. -
