Modern Hydronics & Heat Pumps
An Enertech Webinar Series
Every month, join us for in-depth training and discussion on application and design for modern hydronics technology coupled with geothermal heat pumps.
Hosted by John Seigenthaler
Radiant Walls & Ceilings (Feb 26 • 12:00pm – 1:00pm CDT)
Every hydronic heating pro has heard of radiant floor heating. It’s well known for comfort and compatibility with heat sources such as air-to-water and water-to-water heat pumps. Still, there are situations where radiant floor heating is difficult or impractical to use. That doesn’t mean that radiant heating can’t be used. Hydronically-heated ceilings and walls are an excellent option. Like heated floors, they provide comfort and silent operation. This month’s webinar will show how to construct radiant walls and ceilings using standard materials. It will also provide thermal performance information and show unique applications.
Learning objectives:
• Learn why radiant walls and ceilings can be a better option than floors.
• Show how radiant walls and ceilings can be constructed using simple methods and standard materials.
• Learn about several unique applications for radiant wall heating.
• Understand how to combine radiant ceilings and walls with other heat emitters.
• Be able to calculate the heat output of radiant walls and ceilings.
