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

Hydraulic Testing Existing Hydronic Circuits (July, 24 • 12-1pm CDT)

July’s webinar is a continuation of the existing hydronic circuit series. You’ll learn how to use simple equipment and a straightforward procedure to assess hydronic circuits and choose a circulator that’s appropriate for your retrofit projects.

Learn about the equipment needed to measure the flow rate and associated pressure drop in a hydronic circuit.
Understand how to construct a circuit head loss curve from test data.
Learn how to combine the circuit head loss curve with the pump curve of a circulator to determine the flow rate that circulator would produce in that circuit.
Understand the effect that different fluids such as water and antifreeze have on circuit flow rate.
