What Hot Water Heat Contractors Provide?
Hot water heat is one of the best ways to heat your home; as all hot water heat contractors will tell you, it has many advantages over traditional heating methods. The way that it works is by pumping hot water from a central heating unit through pipes that move all through the home. These pipes carry the water and release the heat that it holds. Water has a very high specific heat -- the amount of energy that it takes to increase its temperature -- so it can hold a lot of heat in a small space. This is very effective and can be used in homes of varying sizes. One of the main advantages to using hot water heat is that it is very effective at warming the floor. Most heat sources are localized, set into the walls. This is true of baseboard heat and certain true of a fireplace. These things can be directed at the floor, but they have a limited range. Hot water heat contractors can install pipes that run under your flooring. Then, the water will be pumped directly through these pipes. This will warm up the floor on contact. None of the energy will be wasted. The heat will be evenly dispersed to all parts of the floor so that you feel warm wherever you go. Having a warm floor goes a long way toward having a warm house. Another main advantage is that hot water heat does not get as incredibly hot as other types of heat and is therefore less dangerous. A fireplace can become hot enough to catch things on fire if they are left on top of the metal box. Baseboard heat can get hot enough to melt plastic items, such as children's toys, if they are left touching the heater when it is turned on. Hot water heat will not do this. You can just set anything up against the heating coils. Even the hottest water that is pumped through the pipes will not be enough to catch anything on fire or to seriously injure a child who might forget that the heater is on and accidentally put his or her hand on it.
Should the vent on a gas water heater be hot?
Yes. It connects to the inside of the tank, where the hot water is. Heat from the hot water will heat the vent pipe by conduction. The top end should be much warmer than the bottom end, near the floor or outlet.
Should supply line coming out of hot water tank have a drop down leg in it to keep the tank from losing heat out the pipes?
No this is not necessary. Install the pipes as per usual. You can insulate the hot water pipes up to two meters or up to two yards from the hot water outlet from the hot water tank to prevent this.
