Radiant Heating

 

Hydronic radiant heating is an effective way to heat a home that is well constructed and insulated, and it is a good alternative when duct space is limited and air conditioning is not needed. Systems can be installed using a gas boiler, a tankless water heater, or even a conventional water heater. Heating efficiencies approaching 95% are achieved with high efficiency boilers and condensing water heaters. This course will cover proper design and installation of a radiant heating system.
