radiant cooling works
great at my house. i pump 56 degree well water through my radiant floor system and through a fan coil unit that keeps my house around 70 degrees even in the hottest weather. bob

radiant cooling
Bob,
What area/region/country do you live in???
I love the idea of radiant cooling but the problem I have always encountered here in the Phila area is moisture. Our dew points are so high that if I were to run 56 degree water through a concrete slab it becomes a puddle on top.
How do you address the humidity and dew point issues. Obviously you must do (dew?) something because your system is working.

Try to get an exact mpg quote
when you buy a new vehicle. Heck some of the land yatch guzzlers doen't even venture a guess!
I think consumers will get the concept if you explain it to them in understandable terms. PID wouldn't work for most, cruise control probably is more understandable
Bottom line is weather anticipation and lowest supply temperatures are the goal of reset and studies show it does in fact can save in fuel costs, as well as component wear from reduced cycling.

the fan coil unit
also has 56 degree well water running through it and a drip pan underneath- just like a conventional air conditioning system, except that the comfort level is comparable to radiant heating. bob
