DIY Hydronic Floor Heating

AC_Hacker · 04-23-12, 03:29 PM

There is a very interesting piece on wood fired hydronic heating by John Siegenthaler that is available HERE.

It is written for designers and installers so that they will understand the theory and best practices of a wood-fired hydronic system.

Along the way, the theory of hydronic design is explained pretty well.

The intended result is to sell their product, but for the innovative DIY person, this is a feast of information.

BTW if you like John Siegenthaler's writing, here is a partial list of articles he has written

...and he also does a "Glitch & Fix" column.
