    Keith,

    Had the same setup and did add a lockable globe valve to throttle the
    unit closer to my March pump so that when both ac units were running
    at 100& the discharge water temp was with 1F of each other.

    As an engineer, excessive flow rate can cause unexpected erosion
    problems so I would suggest that you stay with what you got, and
    balance the cooling capability of each flow stream.

    May want to consider putting the flow in series. Tiara and others do
    this all the time with nil effect. Just a thought if you want to see
    if that works before buying a valve or two to balance the system...

    Lee
