Hey guys



I wanna buy one of the modern hydronics books by John Siegenthaler, but there are two. The original and the 2nd edition. Is there a huge difference? Is the 2nd or the 1st better to purchase and use as a reference?

    Thanks

    I really wanna make sure I am familiar with formulas and thinking behind hydronics. It's terrible to be standing face to face with a customer who knows more heating theory then I do. Also I hate my answers to some common questions like when I have to say "thats the way I have always done it". It's time to lock down and get back to basics and learn "why we do it that way".

    shop for the 3rd edition

    It has been updated completely. it Includes a section on solar, GEO and wood burners. it is also full color so all the graphs, schematics and piping drawings are much easier to read and follow..

    You can choose to do what you want, but you cannot choose the consequences.
