A hydronic heating system is an air conditioning system that uses gaseous or liquid water to transfer heat in cooling and heating systems.
- Its main objective is to keep a building’s occupants comfortable.
A hydronic heating system uses water because of its exceptional heat transfer capabilities. Apart from this, water is non-toxic, green, inexpensive, and readily available. Even so, your hydronic system must have a heat source, such as an energy-efficient gas boiler, to provide heat to your indoor space and a cooling source, such as a chiller or cooling tower, to provide cooling. The heated water is pumped throughout your home via sealed pipes to the system’s radiators. After the heated water has been used, it is returned to be reheated through an elaborate re-circulation system that is independent of the home’s hot water supply. The system has panel radiators which function as heat emitters, installed in every room. The panel radiators emit natural radiant heat that spreads evenly within the indoor space. You can adjust each panel radiator to manipulate the individual room’s indoor environment. In essence, your bedroom can be warmer than your living room and vice-versa. This air conditioning system is clean and free from particles, unlike forced air systems making it an ideal air conditioning system for people with allergic reactions. As part of an HVAC system, modern hydronic units can be adapted to deliver heat to precise locations within your home. This optimizes the efficiency of your HVAC system by ensuring only the right amount of heat is supplied to a home. In conclusion, a hydronic system offers cleaner air conditioning to your home.
