Loop design

Thank you for this site.  Wanted to see if you thought a loop going from room to room to more effective than a loop that has different branches that run to various rooms that are all on one thermostat..  thank you

Like series vs parallel? It depends on the system, but generally speaking, when piped in series each emitter will get cooler water than the previous emitter which reduces the BTU output as you go further down the line. With parallel, each emitter gets the same water temp.
