Vince, "Hydraulically most remote" and "hydraulically most demanding" are to separate things. The former may be the latter but not necessarily. Nice warm S2 parking garage, ground floor mercantile, two floors above that of apartments. All on the same system. Hydraulically most remote will be at the top. Hydraulically most demanding could very well be at ground level, or maybe even the parking garage.
