CAUTION:

  Risk  of  using  the  wrong  type  of  glycol  can  cause  piping 

damage, coolant fluid leaks, and catastrophic and expensive building and 
equipment damage. 

Do  not  use  automotive  antifreeze  as  it  contains  chemicals  that  can 
damage the piping system. 

Typical  inhibited  formula  ethylene  glycol  and  propylene  glycol  are 
supplied with corrosion inhibitors and do not contain a silicone anti-leak 
formula.  Commercial  ethylene  glycol  and  propylene  glycol,  when  pure, 
are generally less corrosive to the common metals of construction than 
water  itself.  Aqueous  solutions  of  these  glycols,  however,  assume  the 
corrosivity of the water from which they are prepared and may become 
increasingly corrosive with use when not properly inhibited.
