How this system works

Hydraulics and HVAC never agreed on a unit. SI prefers cubic metres per second or litres per minute; US plumbing uses gallons per minute; air handling uses cubic feet per minute. Convert carefully: a US gallon is not an imperial gallon.

Base unit: cubic metre per second. Litre per minute is Metric; US gallon per minute is US customary.
