A western Wisconsin university chose a hydronic system with Uponor PP-RCT piping for their new sports complex to meet project scope, timelines, and space constraints.

Jaga Climate Systems’ Astra Beam is an innovative non-ducted fan coil.

Ideal for higher flow and head applications, the e-80SCXL features several seal options and the addition of 10 large in-line pumps.

The site offers information on the benefits of modern hydronics technology, as well as links to publications and training.

Although I’ve worked with hydronic heating for four decades and designed systems around just about every possible heat source, I would be hard-pressed to predict what might be available as hydronic heat sources 25 years from now. 

The fourth edition of "Modern Hydronic Heating & Cooling, for Residential and Light Commercial Buildings" will be available through major booksellers on April 1.

Most of the modern hydronics technology used in North America for residential and light commercial buildings is for heating. 

The energy used in your building is a function of multiple variables; the structure and occupancy for example. Other variables center around component selection, control and design. 

With a considerable volume of contradictory information in circulation regarding the application of different technologies for HVAC systems, this article seeks to explain some of the technical aspects of variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems, and offer comparisons on the basis of cost and performance to more standard hydronic systems. 

We’re only human, and most humans like to put off things until they absolutely have to be done.
