This one is generally refered to as the bible of hydronic heating:



Modern Hydronic Heating for Residential and Light Commercial Buildings

Not cheap, usually found in college courses on radiant floor heating. Has some computer software to run on PC. Leaves no stone unturned. About $170.

It is tailored to hydronic designers who will be using standard commercially available heating units.

My only beef is that it is a bit light on using a heat pump as the heat source.

...to say nothing about someone who is rolling their own heat pump or other non-standard heat source.

I don't think that OUR hydronic book has been written yet.
