This says the fluid properties for Glycol Specific heat have reached
outside the range of the inputs for those same properties.

I believe if you look at some of the example PV files -- you will see the
same messages.

And to expand:
In your submission to the helpdesk and earlier here, you mentioned/showed
you were using V7.0 -- that's why I referenced later versions.

In your current message, you see that it is referring to WATER as the
fluid.  Water freezes at 0C and boils at 100C -- so that is why
these messages appear. (too cold, too hot) If you used a different fluid
(ethylene or propolene glycol, for example) you might not see these
messages.

You can ignore these messages or change the fluid to a different glycol
or enter your own fluid properties.
