True hydronic baseboard heat has an opening at both the top and the bottom of the wall unit with a finned copper tube running down its length. Because hot air is less dense than cold air, the hot air naturally rises. As heat is absorbed in the air surrounding the finned copper tube, it rises and flows out of the opening at the top. (convection) As this warm air leaves the heater it draws cooler air into the bottom opening which is then heated and flows out the top continuously as long as there is heat in the finned copper tube.

What is the definition of an air trap in a hydronic heating system?
An air trap is where the air is bled out of a system normally, there is also trapped air in some poorly designed systems or systems with water having recently been added.
What is the difference between a hot-water heating system and a warm-air heating system?
A hot water heating system (hydronic) uses heated water to circulate from a boiler to baseboard radiators or convectors, where the heat is wanted. This is done through a series of piping and pump(s) that move the heated water around. Warm air systems use a furnace to heat air and a fan to move the warm air through ducts to the point of use.
