Hydronic Heating requires constant reheating of water, as the heat is drawn from the water into each room. No Electric or Solar system can keep up with the demand required for reheating, and therefore it is essential to have the system run off a gas boiler. Solar storage units can be connected to the system to provide you with savings on your domestic hot water needs. Hydrotherm can help connect a solar unit to act as a pre-heater.
