Discussing the Radiant Heat and Hot Water Boiler

John Marran of Energy Kinetics and heating expert Frank Iadarola review the System 2000 boiler system that will supply heat to the hydronic floors and units at either end of the garage. The sytem has various stages to allow for quick heat and controllers to monitor the temperature of the hydronic fluid. The System 2000 contains only 2.5 gallons of water. Since it only takes approximately 1 and a half minutes to heat up that small amount of water, there is no need for the water to be heated all the time. The boiler is activated only when you need heat or hot water. After it supplies the heat or hot water the boiler does not remain hot. This saves a lot of energy. More information
