Forced air heating
Convection.
Room air is drawn into the return air ducts and proceeds to a squirlcage or "sirocco" fan. The air is then discharged into the furnace's heat exchanger where the hot flue gases from the fire are cooled by the air and the air is warmed. This warm air is then forced through the heating supply ducts and up through the warm air registers in each room. Forced air systems can also include a humidifier, to add moisture to the air, filters to clean the air. and special filters to remove odors or ultra-violet lamps to sanitize the air.

what is air vented from a hydronic heating system
It's quick AND it tends to spread the warmth evenly throughout the room.
No, its forced by an electric blower...otherwise it wouldn't be forced air
Forced-air Heating
A forced air heating system uses a furnace to heat air, which is then distributed throughout the building via ductwork and vents.
Convection
Forced air heating
Forced air heating works by the warm air being pumped through the system and pipes so that it radiates the heat out into the room. This is a quicker but more expensive way of heating than convection.

No, in Canada, a forced air heating system is most common as it is relatively low cost source of heating. With a forced air heating system, heat is usually delivered through a metal duct system throughout a house or building.
