6. SUMMARY (i36)

The ability to route heating or cooling exactly where it's needed and when it's needed is the "expected" capability for any heating or cooling system. Properly configured hydronic systems have a well-established record for delivering this expectation. The techniques and hardware currently available for hydronic zoning allow each system to be "tailored" to exact project requirements. This issue of idronics has shown many examples of these approaches and emphasized where each can be best applied. Hydronic system professionals who take the time to understand these techniques will be ready to apply them over many future projects.
