The reason I went with the Mag12 was due to my chiller output plumbing. I ran it up to the main tank with a SCWD thinging inline with two 3/4" outlets. To figure out the total head would be a good math puzzle and I don't have a flow meter. I used my best guess and aimed for the average required flow rate. The SCWD is switching every 7sec approx. if thats an indication of flow rate. I figure the flow is much greater then 135gph with my eyeball meter.
A change in water flow rate through the chiller would cause the chiller to change its on/off cycles right? Lower the flow, shorter the cyle. Brad, how long is your chiller running on for typically?
