What is a boiler?
A boiler is a gas, oil, electric, propane or solid fuel-burning appliance that produces hot
water or steam which is circulated through pipes to heat radiating devices in a
room.Many people consider Hot Water heating to be the ultimate in home comfort. If
you are considering a new heating system for your home that will affect your comfort,
health and the cost of running your household for years to come, you should consider
the many advantages of automatic hot water heating (generally referred to as a
hydronic system. Homeowners find that this type of system is reliable, clean and
efficient without the noise, dust and drafts of hot air systems.
The heat source is a boiler fueled most often by oil or gas, with a certified efficiency
rating. A small pump circulates heated water through baseboard units, radiators or in
floor radiant tubing in each room, where warmth is distributed evenly without fan noise
or blowing air.

The Advantages of Hydronic Heating Systems
Economy
Of all natural materials for conducting heat, water is the best. Temperature changes of
water can be accurately controlled and measured, so there is less "over-shooting" of
thermostat settings and less wasted heat. And today's compact boilers, with improved
heat-transfer technology, high efficiency burners and electronic controls are 30 to 40
percent more efficient than boilers installed a decade ago.
Comfort
True comfort means being unaware of temperature and humidity and this is what you
should expect from a superior heating system. If you feel hot or cold spaces or drafts in
your home, the heating system is inadequate by today's standards.
Conventional hydronic systems bring warmth to a room through the flow of warmed air
through the room from an enclosed heating surface inside baseboard units. Heating
elements are located along the outside wall, under windows to counteract chill
downdraft's. Even when the flow of water through the tubing stops, the heating element
continues to disperse its warmth without the abrupt "on-off" cycling of forced air
systems.
Reliability
Hydronic systems are reliable from the day they're installed and offer trouble-free
service for decades. A few operating components will have to be adjusted over the
years, or have to be replaced eventually. But the basic equipment is sturdy and
reliable. With only a little attention, a hydronic system provides infallible heat on
demand for many years. A hydronic system, as a whole, is uncomplicated with few
moving parts.
Health
With hydronics, there is no recirculation of air from the basement or from other rooms,
blowing dust, odors, germs or spores throughout the house. Hydronic heat is a sealed
system; it neither adds nor subtracts moisture in the house, , so normal patterns of
cooking and washing usually can maintain proper humidity levels without additional
equipment.

What is Radiant Heat?
The comfort of radiant heat dates back to the Romans who used this 'luxurious' form of
heating to warm their stone and marble tile floors. Today, radiant heat systems are
installed in applications ranging from small, single family homes to 150,000 square
foot warehouses.
Radiant heat is a form of hydronic (hot water) heat that circulates warm water through
special tubing and installs in or underneath floors. Radiant heat systems heat objects
throughout the room, so you can feel the difference. It eliminates cold drafts and keeps
the heat at the floor, warming you and the furniture, not the air.
Hydronic heating is a system of heating that uses hot water or steam instead of air.
You get two types of heat delivery: radiant heat and convected heat. Radiant heat
warms you directly, like the sun's rays. Convected heat is carried by warm air
circulating in a room.
Hydronic heat allows you to choose from several different devices that use these two
heating. A boiler can be piped to radiant tubing, hidden in the wall, baseboard
radiators or stand-alone radiators. Hot water can also be circulated through a coil in
your central air-conditioning unit to heat other living spaces with warm air. Hydronic
heating produces more hot water for cooking, washing, hot tubs, swimming pools and
even radiant sidewalks and driveways to melt ice and snow. With hydronic heating,
indoor temperature is maintained at the desired level, regardless of changes in the
weather, with one setting of the room thermostat. Hydronic heat can be arranged in
zones to bring the correct amount of heat to each area of the house.
