pressure will be lower, the unit's performance will be lower
and water pressure drops will be greater. All unit-protection
systems, such as anti-freeze, and low-pressure protection
will need to be readjusted.

Water treatment
Before putting the unit into operation, clean the water circuit.
Dirt, scales, corrosion debrits and other material can
accumulate inside the heat exchanger and reduce its heat
exchanging capacity. Pressure drop can increase as well, thus
reducing water flow. Proper water treatment therefore reduces
