Hydronic Heating Systems Melbourne
A hydronic heating system functions through four major components; a boiler or hydronic heat pump, a piping system, a pump and a radiator. All of these components work together to efficiently heat your home year-round:
- Boiler – this component is used for heating water to a temperature, which can be controlled thermostatically. Boilers use LPG, natural gas, solid fuel and electricity for heating purposes.
- Heat Pump – a new and all-electric alternative to a gas boiler, a hydronic heat pump heats water just like a boiler, but with no carbon emissions produced during the process.
- Piping system – Pipework carries hot water from the boiler to the radiator panels or into a slab, and brings the water back for reheating as well.
- Pump – this component circulates water through the network of pipes.
- Radiators – the component you see every day, radiators transfer heat energy carried by hot water to the room. There are a variety of radiator panels available to match your space.
Hydronic Slab Heating
In a hydronic slab heating system, an optimum efficiency boiler heats water and circulates it through a symmetrically placed network of pipes, made of high quality PE -RT polyethylene, which are concealed in a floor slab. It is a low temperature and energy-efficient system, which keeps the cost of operation to a minimum.
This whole system converts your floor slab into a heat radiator, which slowly release clean radiant heat equally into each room without stirring up allergens and dust inside the room. The ideal way of running hydronic slab heating system is to make it in junction with a CO2 heat pumping system.
Hydronic Floor Heating
Hydronic flooring heating uses a boiler to heat water that circulates through an arrangement of pipes and gently warms the home or office space to a desired temperature. The whole pipe system is placed under the floor and the temperature is controlled with the help of a thermostat. Heat levels can be controlled with thermostats placed individually at different locations to increase or decrease temperature in specific areas or with a central thermostat for the whole space at the same time.
This type of hydronic heating can be used either alone or with a combination of panel radiators and convectors.

Hydronic Heat Pumps
For an all new and electric heating system, heat pumps allow you to enjoy hydronic heating without the carbon emissions that come with a traditional boiler system. Installing a heat pump for your system does require some additional electrical work, but our team at Nissl Eichert Heating is qualified and ready to assist you with tackling this project.
If you have an existing hydronic heating system, you can switch to electric hydronic heating for a cleaner system today.
Hydronic Heating Radiator Panels
There are a large variety of hydronic heating panels and radiators in the market place today, and these panels are available in different sizes, colours and styles. These panels vary in dimensions and are available with different heating capabilities which allow you to choose the perfect panel for the rooms in your home. There are a large number of combinations of heating panels in terms of height, depth and length. Our standard panels are available in lengths from 300 to 3000mm and heights from 500 to 900mm.
At Nissl Eichert Hydronic Heating, we offer traditional DeLonghi radiator panels, along with a range of designer radiator panels to suit every space.
