| What is Hydronic Heating |
|
Hydronic heating is the most pleasant form of central heating, which as the name suggests, works on re-circulating water heated by a natural gas or LPG fired boiler.
The water is circulated from the boiler into radiators, skirting board convectors or fan convectors located strategically around the house. The size and type of radiators and/or convectors determine the amount of heat provided. One of the many benefits that hydronic heating offers, is that each radiator and convector can be individually thermostatically controlled, providing the ultimate in comfort for each room. Living areas can be warmer than bedrooms. Unused rooms can be switched off or kept at a lower temperature by just turning a knob.
Hydronic heating is also modular. Once a boiler of appropriate size is installed, you are able to add radiators and/or convectors as required. If you build an extension, or renovate, you simply plumb the area and add radiators/convectors as required. Many Hurlcon clients have added to their original heating systems as their needs changed.

Pleasant
Hydronic heating provides warmth the way nature does by natural convection and radiation and does not dry out the air by burning or cause unpleasant draughts, hot spots and noise.
Non-allergenic
It is non-allergenic. With radiators and natural convectors there is no forced air circulation through ducts that can accumulate dust and allergens and distribute them throughout the house.
Safe
Hydronic heating is safe for elderly people, children and pets. There is no danger of a burn or scald as the system is fully enclosed with radiator temperatures well below boiling point. The surface temperature of natural convectors is pleasantly warm to the touch.
Modular
Hurlcon Hydronic heating is modular and expandable. You can add radiators as your needs change. Simply plumb the new area, install the radiators and the job is done.
Silent
One of the nicest features of Hurlcon Hydronic Heating is its silence. 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 Hurlcon Hydronic Heating. The boiler is away from the room, so there is no blast of hot air or fan noise. From the time you turn it on, there is no sound, just pleasant warmth.
Reliable
Hurlcon Hydronic Heating is very reliable, simply install and forget it. The only moving parts are in the pump which is used to circulate the hot water to the radiators and convectors. Hurlcon use special pumps designed to give long, trouble-free life. Hurlcon boilers are also designed to withstand the ravages of time. Spare parts although seldom needed are kept in stock for all Hurlcon systems and are available from the Noble Park headquarters. |

Stylish

Thermaboard skirting board convectors can take the place of a skirting board and are available in rolled edge and traditional styles.
Clean
Hydronic heating is environmentally clean with a natural gas or LPG fired boiler simply heating water, which is then circulated. It is a closed system, with radiators and natural convectors providing clean natural heat by radiation and natural convection. This technique eliminates dust and allergens being blown throughout your home. |
