Subject - Paired for Performance: Heat Emitters and Heat Pumps
When - Thursday, March 28 from 12 noon - 1:30pm CDT (90 minute extended edition)
Technical Content Level - Intermediate
Heat Pumps, both air-to-water and water-to-water geoexchange, are quickly gaining acceptance and increasing market share as heat sources in hydronic-based systems. However, matching these heat pumps to appropriate heat emitters and distribution systems is crucial in achieving high performance. A favorite to the series, John Siegenthaler, P.E., will survey a wide variety of heat emitters that can be used in both new and retrofit applications, describing potential pitfalls and how to avoid them in this 90 minute extended webinar edition.
You'll learn:
→ Can hydronic heat pumps produce water temperatures over 130 ºF?
→ Can all types of radiant panels be used with hydronic heat pumps?
→ Can panel radiators operate at water temperatures lower than 100 ºF?
→ How does thermal mass affect systems supplied by hydronic heat pumps?
Siegenthaler is a seasoned industry leader and passionate teacher, eager to share his over 40 years’ experience in the understanding and proper application of water-based engineering principles with our audience. He is the principal of Appropriate Designs and a regular contributor to industry publications.
