overview


Hydronic heating systems use hot water to heat your home and are considered by many to offer a better comfort than other heating alternatives. The water within the system is a transportation mechanism delivering heat through distribution pipe work, which is then released into space by a heat emitter such as floor slab, radiators or convectors.

Hydronic central heating is quite simply the most comfortable and efficient way to heat your living environment.

Possible ways of heat transfer are CONDUCTION, CONVECTION, EVAPORATION and RADIATION.

Radiation is the most effective mode of heat transfer and floor heating uses the highest proportion of radiant heat transfer of all heating systems, making it the most effective means of heating the living environment.

Look at the Radiant Floor Heating Curve. Radiant floor heating is the only heating system that gives you a room temperature curve that matches the Ideal Heating Curve for the human body -warm at the floor and cooler at our head.

Hydronic heating systems use water to move thermal energy from where it is produced to where it is needed. The water within the system is a transportation mechanism delivering heat through distribution pipe work, which is then released into space by a heat emitter such as floor slab, radiators or convectors.


Hydronic Cooling – An innovative approach

Hydronic cooling works on the same principle - this time, transporting cooled water through a structural mass (such as a concrete slab). Hydronic cooling is an innovative approach to reducing or eliminating the reliance on traditional refrigerative air conditioning systems.

With radiant cooling systems the heat is removed by providing cooling to the space surfaces rather than directly to the air. When used in conjunction with a separate ventilation system this provides a constant, comfortably cooled environment. The separation of the cooling and the ventilation not only improves comfort conditions but also increases indoor air quality.
