Understanding Boiler Systems
How Boilers Work
Boilers are the heart of hydronic heating systems, providing efficient and comfortable heat for your home. Unlike forced air systems, boilers heat water that circulates through pipes to deliver radiant heat.
- Cold water enters the boiler
- The burner heats the water (typically using natural gas, propane, or oil)
- Heated water circulates through pipes to radiators or radiant systems
- Heat is transferred to the living space
- Cooled water returns to the boiler to be reheated
Types of Radiant Heat Systems
Radiant Floor Heating
Heated water circulates through pipes installed beneath your floor, creating an even, comfortable heat that rises naturally through the room.
Benefits:
- Even heat distribution with no cold spots
- Energy efficient operation
- Silent operation with no fans or blowing air
- Invisible system that doesn't take up wall space
Ideal for: New construction, renovations, bathrooms, and front rooms
