How the calculator treats it

Small-reservoir model. Best suited to compact indoor systems with short plumbing runs.

Capacity basis: BTU rating is manufacturer-published; manual states BTU is measured at 97°F ambient.

The engine applies a low-temperature/high-ambient capacity band rather than assuming the nameplate BTU remains exact under every condition. Internal chiller pressure drop is also represented as a range, so a hydraulic PASS is only strong when it survives that uncertainty.
