HYDRONIC RADIATOR PANEL INSTALLATION & SERVICING
HC Plumbing Toowoomba are the local experts in hydronic radiator panel installation and servicing.
While traditionally radiators aren’t a common site in Toowoomba, they have been used to heat homes throughout the Southern states and overseas for many years. In fact the first hydronic heating systems date back to Roman times!
What is hydronic radiator panel heating?
Radiator is the term that is used to describe any device where fluid circulates through exposed pipes. A hydronic radiator panel system uses a boiler to heat your space by circulating hot water through its exposed pipes and fins (radiator panels) in each room.
Why choose hydronic heating over other heating methods?
Save Money
It's a very cost effective method of heating your home.
Clean & Healthy
Unlike ducted heating systems which circulate dust mites, allergens and bacteria through your home, hydronic heating uses piped water to radiate heat. This makes it the perfect form of heating for asthmatics and individuals who suffer from allergies or have compromised immune systems.
It's SAFE!
With no open flames, or exposed electrical connections, hydronic heating comes with a very low safety risk. Panels never become too hot for any member of the family to touch and do not present a fire risk if furniture etc. are placed nearby.
Comfortable & Consistent Temperature
As it isn’t reliant on pushing air around the house, you won’t find that you have hot spots, cold spots and drafts like you can experience with ducted heating systems. You will also notice that it makes next to no discernable noise.
Worried that radiator panels might be an ugly addition to your home?
You needn't be!
Hydronic heating offers stylish and practical designs, with classic and contemporary radiator panels available for visible heat distribution or hidden underfloor heating able to be incorporated into new slabs.
Hydronic heating is able to be installed in both new and existing homes.
What houses in Toowoomba are suitable for hydronic radiator panels?
- Queenslanders (the panels are sympathetic to their design & can be retrofitted)
- Any home with a suspended timber floor (having a timber floor means that we are easily able to run the necessary pipework underneath your floor and come up through the floor as required).
- Houses with concrete slabs (while these are a little more tricky - with pipework needing to be run through the ceiling and dropped down inside your walls).
- New homes - depending on your new home's design you have the option to install hydronic radiator panels, hydronic underfloor heating or a combination of both - make sure to reach out while your home is still in the planning phase in order for us to recommend the best option.
