What are hydronic baseboard heaters?

Hydronic baseboard heaters are a safe, efficient way to add heat to a room. They are installed around the room in front of the baseboards. Some of the oldest examples of hydronic heating are radiators and radiant baseboard heating. Radiators heat a room using steam that is produced by heating water. Radiant baseboard heating is made of units that go around the edges of a room that is lined with tubes that have hot water circulating through them. While this type of heating was considered outdated and not effective a few years ago, it is regaining popularity due to energy depletion.
