** Power Factor is a measure of motor efficiency. For				18
Kasco equipment, use .95. When comparing competitors				19
or other types of equipment, knowing the exact Power				20
Factor will give you a more accurate result.				21
				22
*** Total Unit Efficiency gives you a number of HP per Watt.				23
The higher the decimal, the more HP performance you				24
get out of each Watt of power used.
