Checking All the Boxes for Thermal Comfort at the Next Coffee with Caleffi

Can a hydronic system effectively—and efficiently—provide heating, cooling, domestic hot water, and heat recovery ventilation in a residential home? On Thursday, August 24, at noon CDT, John Siegenthaler, PE, a favorite to the Coffee with Caleffi webinar series, will discuss design details, challenges, and lessons learned from a recent project profile of a modern hybrid approach utilizing an air-to-water heat pump system that checks all of the boxes during this 90-minute extended edition.

You’ll learn:

  • Back-up heating: When is it necessary?
  • Can a single 44-watt circulator supply all space heating flow for a 2,300-square-foot house?
  • Does chilled water cooling and heat recovery ventilation require separate duct systems?
  • Can panel radiators operate at supply water temperature below 100°F on design days?
  • Where does an “extended manifold” piping system make sense?
  • How are three-way diverter valves applied in air-to-water heat pump systems?
  • What are the advantages of multi-zone heating combined with single-zone cooling?

Siegenthaler is a seasoned industry leader and passionate teacher, eager to share his more than 40 years of experience in the understanding and proper application of water-based engineering principles with the audience. He is the Principal of Appropriate Designs and a regular contributor to industry publications.
