    can this be done with minimal difficulty

    i am installing radiant heat on the first floor of a customers house and eliminating the hot air furnace. there is no way to do radiant on the second floor, they have a forced air furnace in the attic and i would like to install a hydro air coil in the duct work and eliminate the need for gas, has any one done this type of conversion before? How difficult would it be and are there any pros and cons to this.

    its simple

    you pull out the furnace in the attic and install a hydroair unit in its place. This is easiest and most cost effective in my opinione
