Hydronic baseboard heaters work by having a boiler heat up hot water and heat the room or area via convection and radiation techniques. The boiler for the hydronic baseboard heater can run off of electricity, natural gas, or even oil. Electric baseboard heaters warm up coils and produce hot air, whereas hydronic heaters use a boiler. They made great heaters for home.
How Baseboard Heaters Work
Baseboard heaters are fairly simple in nature, the coolest air is found lowest to the ground. The heater warms the cool air (either electric or hydronic) on the ground, causing the warmer air to rise. The cycle continues to repeat until the room is heated to the desired temperature.
