home heating with hydronic (water-filled) heating coils in the slab provides luxurious comfort.

Heating a concrete slab from cold takes a relatively long time, at least several hours, but once at operating temperature, it will radiate heat consistently. For this reason, in-slab heating is generally best suited to buildings with permanent or high occupancy.

Efficient, Luxurious, Simple:

Used in conjunction with our solar heat-pump water heaters, home heating with hydronic (water-filled) heating coils in the slab provides luxurious comfort.

Hydronic Floor heating pipes are laid throughout the concrete slab in loops or 'coils', during construction. Each coil can be controlled independently to heat only the area(s) required. (Groups of coils can be managed as one 'Zone' and controlled typically by room thermostat)
Warm water is circulated through the system of pipe work, the floor is heated and radiates warmth throughout the house.
