Radiant Floor Heating Supply - When To Use Hydronic Systems
February 25th, 2008 . by adminWater is one of the best ways to heat the home. It is done by being heated up and circulated through tubes underneath your floor. This is where your radiant floor heating supply comes from. The great thing about hydronic systems is that you can heat up the water with a variety of different sources, whereas using electricity for the heating supply only allows you to use electricity.
One of the main benefits about using water for the heating supply is that it is easier to control the temperature. A drawback, however, is that it takes longer to warm up the system and to reach the setting on the thermostat, if it has been turned off for awhile.
