Distribution Systems
Distribution systems are categorized according the medium used to transport
heat. The two most common types are:
- Forced Air systems that use ducts and registers to distribute heated or cooled
air, and
- Hot Water and Steam systems that use pipes and radiators to distribute heat.
Some systems need no distribution. These include space heaters, room air
conditioners and room heat pumps that are located where heating or cooling is
needed.
