What Is Hydronic Heating
Hydronic Heating is a form of Hydronics. A system in which warm liquids such as water/glycol are used to heat conditioned space, driveways and/or snowmelt applications. This type of heating has been used for centuries. The use of radiant energy that creates quiet, comfortable efficient heat.
With Hydronic Heating, water is preheated and flows through tubing laid
underneath the floor. As the floor warms, heat rises and creates a
conformable living space without the adverse effects of forced-air
units.
Hydronic Heating can also be controlled in ways that allow you to
personalize how your floors are heated. By creating individual floor
heating zones, you can maintain one temperature in your family room
floor, and another in your bedroom floor.
Radiant Heat
is one of the most efficient means of heating your home. Unlike forced
air units, there is no heat loss through duct-work, so all of the energy
is transferred through the floor and up into your living space. When
combined with a high-efficiency condensing boiler or solar heating
array, your in floor system will save you a considerable amount of money
compared to conventional heating units.
About Hydronic Heating
Hydronic heating is clean and allows you to ventilate clean air through your home independent of the heating system. Many people believe that because their home was built with forced-air heating, that replacing with an
HYDRONIC HEATING System i.e. warm floor, is beyond their financial reach, but Hydronic Heating makes it possible by placing in floor heating directly above your existing subfloor.
