Hi JLaney,

I couldn't find any information on your Alco valve. The ifw55 6a  has no listings at all in alco's site!

It could be a special  order from Prevost.

All though, The [55] in your Mo # could mean either 1/2 ton or 5 1/2 ton ?? not quite sure!

1/2 ton valve can do up to a 9000 btu coil using R-134A. CFM can vairy.   A 5 1/2 ton valve can cool a wherehouse!! [ not likely ]

Hope I've helped you a little!

the coil is a 2 row about the size on my computor sceen,about a 20 inch, it can't put our to much.
somewhere in the future i am going to knock the road air in the head, and free up the bay for a
out side kitchen. do you have any input on those things. thanks jt. laney
