Transformers will make a buzzing sound when old or getting tired or near failure, see if it is hot to touch? Measure its amp draw, it should not be much, a 48 VA transformer will pull 2 amps max only 1.8 continuously.
Depending on what situation it is. If it is a small house central heating works better, if it is a big house then air conditioning works better.
The thermostat tells the air conditioner to pull in air. The air then goes through cooling lines in to the house. goes through the vents and out through the registers in the rooms of the house.
Not unless you are using radiant heat where there are water lines within the foundation that circulate hot water through them to heat the house or outdoor patio.
There is no answer to that, does the house need some demo to install the duct work or a lot? Are there beams or obstructions in the way?Even the costs of heating units vary a lot. Your best choice is to phone a few heating companies and get them to come in and give you a free estimate, takes all the guess work out of it.
The answer depends on the thermostat setting as well as the kind of heating system that you have.
You cannot control heating in individual rooms. Central heating provides heating to various rooms in a house or building from one location.
Depending on what situation it is. If it is a small house central heating works better, if it is a big house then air conditioning works better.
Insulation helps to keep heat inside a house, meaning as less heats escapes there is no need to heat the house up, normally by Central Heating, therefore saving energy.
Rather than have a coal, gas or electric fire heating one room, central heating is one boiler (gas or electric) heating the whole house. This is done by pumping hot water through pipes that feed several radiators installed in each room and hall way. A thermostat in the hall (for instance) allows the temperature to be controlled overall, with a regulating valve on each radiator for separate room control.
I can think of a number of possibilities. Faulty electrical wiring. Insects/pests/animals. wind (causing a loose item to vibrate) Air conditioning (see above) Central heating (water) pump noise. Tinnitus.
The hypocaust is a roman way of central heating Slaves lit a fire underneath the house and it warmed up the house
There could be a draft causing the pilot light to go out.
The open central court inside of a house in ancient Rome was called an "atrium".
Not for normal "wear and tear" that resulted in repair or replacement.
The president who installed central heating and a second bathroom in the White House was Franklin D. Roosevelt. During his presidency from 1933 to 1945, he oversaw significant renovations to the White House, including the installation of central heating and the addition of a second bathroom on the second floor. These upgrades greatly improved the comfort and functionality of the presidential residence.
As the sun's radiant energy touches a house, the temperature inside the house increases. This is because the house absorbs the sun's energy, heating up the materials inside the house which then radiate that heat into the living space.
Radiant floor heat is considered by many to be better than central heat because it is much better for our environment. Another reason is that is cost less to heat your house using radiant floor heat than central heating.
