Capacity loss caused by differences in tubing diameters
*
Capacity loss will occur if a tubing system that matches the horsepower is not selected (for example, if a tubing system was
determined and installed with no plan for extension and extension occurs later). The loss rate can be found from the graph
below.

(Reading the graph)
Currently a 16 HP system and ø1-1/8" Gas tubings are used. Subsequently the system is expanded, with 16 HP added to the
same tubing system.
Horsepower after extension: 16 + 16 = 32 HP
From the graph above: Cooling: Capacity ratio is 90.8%. Actual capacity = 32 × 0.908 = 29.1 HP
Heating: Capacity ratio is 96.0%. Actual capacity = 32 × 0.960 = 30.7 HP
