    A thoughtful examination of complete hydronic distribution systems and the interactions of components within properly designed systems is investigated in the newly released edition of idronics™: Proven Hydronic Distribution Systems. Based on decades of experience, it presents several proven distribution system layouts, along with their strengths and limitations. Interactions between the distribution system, heat source and heat emitters are discussed in order to assist in the determination of a distribution system that will lend itself well for a given application. The idronics journal concludes with common errors related to system design and presents alternative system examples to eliminate problems.

    The edition is now available at www.caleffi.com. Subscribers of the journal will receive their hard copy in August. Register today for your own complementary copy.
