Minding Your Business: Benefiting from a Modern Boiler System
January 28, 2014  Share Like Tweet Add Email What a standard
boiler has to do is relatively simple: use oil or gas to heat
large volumes of water that is then distributed via piping to
some form of radiation unit such as a finned tube or a flat
panel in each room of your building. There have been significant
advances in boiler efficiency, resulting in lower costs to heat
interior spaces.   Modern high-efficiency boilers adjust their
water temperature in order to meet the heating requirements of
their environment. Older systems adjust environmental
temperatures by restricting water flow rather than temperature.
With high-efficiency units, water temperature is adjusted to
compensate for ambient conditions; as it gets colder outside,
higher-temperature water, rather than a higher volume of water,
is sent -- and vice versa for warmer ambient temperatures. This
leads to a more consistent comfort level for your employees by
maintaining a more even room
