in THE MAIN WALL

You've been bleeding the radiator for five minutes and not getting air. The system pressure is high enough and yet the rad is cold but the first floor is warm. In this video, I chat about the two two most common types of hydronic heating loops, Direct and Reverse return. Hope you like it. My radiator is cold!

    This video is what separates the men from the boys or should I say a well engineered system from a poorly engineered system. On numerous occasions I had to explain why our system install price was higher than that of the competition. All of the cheaper system installs were engineered for direct return while all of ours were always reverse return. Another great educational video, @ray.wohlfarth115344
