Alternative: Propylene Glycol + Distilled Water | Ratio: PG 60% : DW 40% (-40°C – 110°C)
Do Not Use Automotive Anti-freeze, it contains additives that have been known to corrode heat
exchangers and remove the nickel plating.
Do Not Use Tap, De-Ionized, or Reverse Osmosis Water, as it can cause rusting of internal metal parts.
