What Is A Hydronic Heating Unit?
A hydronic heating system uses a natural gas or LPG-powered boiler to heat water, which is then circulated and re-circulated around the house into underfloor piping or radiators, where the heat is radiated.
Hydronic heating systems are known for their high levels of efficiency (some systems are up to 25% more efficient than ducted gas heating), as well as the comfort that radiated heat provides versus fan force.
How Do Hydronic Heaters Work?
Hydronic heating systems operate by heating water and circulating it through sealed pipes to various heat emitters, such as radiators or underfloor heating systems.
Unlike traditional heating methods that rely on forced warm air, hydronic heating utilises natural radiant heating, resulting in improved air quality and enhanced comfort.
The system’s ability to maintain lower temperatures while efficiently radiating heat makes it a top choice for modern heating solutions.
It can be set up to provide an underfloor heating system, as well as heating for towel racks, swimming pools and anywhere else that it can be installed and used.
Hydronic Heating Installation Process
When it comes to hydronic heating installation, homeowners have two primary options:
In-Slab Floor Heating
In this method, coils of hot water are installed within the concrete slab of the floor. As the water circulates through these coils, it emits heat, which rises evenly throughout the room, providing gentle and consistent warmth from the ground up.
While the installation process for in-slab floor heating is complex and typically done during construction or major renovations, it offers unparalleled comfort and energy efficiency.
Radiator Panels
Alternatively, radiator panels can be installed in each room to distribute heat. These panels come in various sizes and styles to suit different aesthetic preferences and heating requirements.
The installation process involves mounting the radiator panels on walls or fitting them into existing alcoves, ensuring even heat distribution throughout the space.
Benefits Of Installing A Hydronic Heating Unit
hydronic heating offers an array of compelling benefits for both residential and commercial properties:
- Comfortable: Hydronic heaters provide heat through convection and radiation, which makes for a more comfortable environment than that of a forced central heating system.
- Suitable For Asthma Sufferers: Unlike air-forced central heating systems, hydronic heating is asthma-friendly as it does not blow hot air around your home, meaning the build-up of dust particles does not have an effect on the home or its inhabitants.
- Reliable: Hydronic heating units are brilliantly simple. The only moving parts are the boiler and pump kit. A high-quality system should thwart maintenance, but if there is a system failure, we can provide maintenance services.
- Silent: Unlike forced central heating systems, hydronic heating is thoroughly silent. Because air isn’t being consistently blown and circulated in the room, there is no noise.
