Environmentally Friendly – Drawing heat from the earth itself, Direct Energy has chosen systems that deliver renewable geothermal energy with higher efficiency than any other powered water or associated heating system.Silent – Anyone used to the noise of wall heaters, space heaters and some fan forced ducted units will be amazed and delighted by the silence of hydronic heating.The surface temperature of natural convectors is pleasantly warm to the touch. Be sure to get in touch with a supplier to get more accurate and. Look at the heating capacity chart on Hydronic Heat Pumps and Ecowarm to see what a difference Ecowarm makes for increased hydronic heat pump capacity and efficiency Ecowarm.
These costs are just ballpark figures and may change depending on several factors. Ecowarm can heat a typical space using 90F105F water temperature for floor systems and using wall and ceiling configurations in the 80F95F range. A hydronic in-screed underfloor heating system is the most expensive type and may cost you around 105 per square metre. Safe – There is no danger of a burn or scald as the system is fully enclosed with radiator temperatures well below boiling point. Hydronic in-slab underfloor heating may cost you around 68 per square metre.Pleasant – Hydronic heating provides warmth the way nature does by natural convection and radiation and does not dry out the air.Environmental Protection Agency has rated it the most environmentally clean and efficient conditioning system. Geothermal Radiant Hydronic Floor Heating Features: It does not rely on ducting, furnaces, fans or blowers and therefore the system is virtually noiseless due to the lack of air movement. Radiant systems provide the inverse of conventional space heating patterns: they provide warm floors and cool ceilings, resulting in greater comfort and energy savings. Radiant energy warms the surfaces of all objects which are in direct line of sight, including all floors, walls, furniture and people which can be ‘seen’ by the floor. Systems such as radiant under-floor heating, baseboard.
The desuperheater is a secondary heat exchanger that captures surplus heat from the heat pump and transfers it to water pumped into a water heater storage tank for use in the hydronic system. How Does Radiant Hydronic Floor Heating Work?Ī radiant hydronic heating system circulates warm water through special tubing in or beneath floors to distribute heat. This heat pump is for hydronic systems that use water to carry heating or cooling through the building. Geothermal Hydronic Radiant Heating A geothermal heat pump with a desuperheater can also heat water for circulation through a hydronic floor heating system.
Combine this with the efficiency of Direct Energy’s geothermal heating and you have a winner! Studies have found energy usage averages 40% less in homes with radiant heating than with forced air heating – a big savings in your heating cost. This feature can be incorporated without the need to ‘oversize’ the equipment. Combining radiant hydronic floor heating with our Geothermal heating system will provide a high level of comfort at low cost.Īs an alternative to forced air heating and cooling via an air handler, our geothermal heat pump can also provide the most efficient heating and cooling source for any radiant hydronic heating system and chilled water for a fan coil cooling system.
