Summary
Residential heating and cooling tests of a heat pump system using hydronic thermal distribution are presented. The use of hydronic, rather than air, thermal distribution systems eliminates the use of air ducts, which commonly lose up to 30% of the thermal output of the space conditioning device through air leaks and conduction losses. Test were conducted in an unoccupied test house during an entire heating and cooling season.
