The ABC’s of Hydronic Heating.

If you’re considering upgrading your home’s heater, you might be interested in hydronic heating. It is also called radiant heating…you may know it by that term. A hydronic system circulates hot water or other heated liquid through plastic piping beneath the floor, along the baseboards, or through your home’s radiators.

Here is how it works. The water in a radiant system begins by being heated inside a boiler. The water flows to a plumbing manifold, which sends the correct temperature of water to different areas of your home based on temperature readings across various thermostats. Too much to absorb in a handful of moments? Fear not…we will fill in the blanks!

What is Hydronic Heating?

Hydronics is defined as the use of a liquid heat-transfer medium in heating and cooling systems for your home or office.  The working fluid is typically water, glycol, or mineral oil.  Some of the oldest and most common examples are steam and hot-water radiators.  Your hydronic system moves through sealed pipes to radiators located throughout your home.

There are three types of hydronic heating –

1.  Baseboard…popularly referred to as hot water baseboard.

2.  Hydronic radiant floor…the entire finished floor serves as a radiator.

3.  Hydro-air heating which requires ductwork.
