Solar Hydronic Radiant Floor Heating Systems

Radiant floor heating technology also known as hydronic in floor heating is an exceptionally energy efficient comfortable and healthy way to heat.

Solar hydronic radiant floor heating systems.

This hybrid solar radiant heating system is a complete solar heating kit that works with any in floor heating loop or radiant floor system. Radiant floor heat makes your home or building more energy efficient by reducing infiltration losses and by only heating the lower half of the room. Normally a large solar heated storage tank with electric gas or oil backup supplies hot water to the radiant system and most often provides for domestic needs as well. When solar energy is used directly to provide radiant heat the radiant floor system cannot be used by the backup heating system as this use would compromise the solar storage.

In both installations the solar system requires a south facing roof or wall for the solar collectors. Radiantec systems produce solar domestic hot water. Most systems require two 4 8 panels with more required as the load increases. Solar heating system and radiant floor system can be retrofitted in existing buildings although they are more easily installed during new construction.

The system is designed to be used as the primary heating source for any radiant floor system replacing the need for an expensive boiler. Introducing the wolds 1st complete solar solar radiant floor heating system. Earlier solar heating systems would first heat a storage tank and then distribute the stored heat with radiant heating tubes. Radiantec solar energy systems use under floor radiant heat the most comfortable and efficient way to utilize the sun s energy.

This is important because domestic hot water is a significant energy user.
