Hydronic heating is a heating system that uses water instead of air to heat your home. The water acts as a heat transmission medium. Hydronic heating systems use a boiler to produce hot water or steam, which is then dispersed through radiators or underfloor coils to generate convective heat that radiates into the air and surrounding surfaces. In a closed-loop system, the water is constantly recycled, making it more efficient. The hot water from the boiler can also be pumped through the AC coil to create a hybrid hydronic/forced-air heating system.
Advantages and efficiency of hydronic heating systems
Installing this type of heating has many advantages.
- High energy efficiency and cost savings
- Reduced transmission of dust and pollen particles by airborne droplets due to no forced air circulation
- Consistent warmth
- Overall lower energy consumption
If you want to install hydronic heating systems, talk to an HVAC professional. If you are installing underfloor heating, you will need the right type of flooring. Some are better conductors of heat than others. The boiler needs to have a place to be installed, but this is easier now that new boilers can be hung on the wall.
Hydronic heating systems are a large investment, but they can bring significant benefits.
