The two-pipe reverse return configuration which is sometimes called 'the three-pipe system' is different from the two-pipe system in the way that water returns to the boiler. In a two-pipe system, once the water has left the first radiator, it returns to the boiler to be reheated, and so with the second and third etc.

Fig 1 shows a reservoir which feeds a gravity distribution system – for drinking water or irrigation. If the ground in which the pipe is laid has high points – such as Hi1, 2 etc. and low points between them such as Lo1, 2 etc., then if the pipe is filled from the top, and was empty, the pipe fills OK as far as Hi1.
Hydronic balancing, also called hydraulic balancing, is the process of optimizing the distribution of water in a building's hydronic heating or cooling system by equalizing the system pressure. In a balanced system every radiator is set to receive the proper amount of fluid in order to provide the intended indoor climate at optimum energy ...
Circulating hot water can be used for central heating. Sometimes these systems are called hydronic heating systems. [22] Common components of a central heating system using water-circulation include: A supply of fuel, electric power or district heating supply lines; A boiler (or a heat exchanger for district heating) which heats water in the system
Hydronic fan coil units can be generally divided into two types: Two-pipe fan coil units or four-pipe fan coil units. Two-pipe fan coil units have one supply and one return pipe. The supply pipe supplies either cold or hot water to the unit depending on the time of year. Four-pipe fan coil units have two supply pipes and two return pipes.
Widespread destruction from the L.A. fires was inevitable, given the drought and winds. Still, the region could have been better prepared.
Hydronics is the name for the use of liquid water (or aqueous solutions) as the heat-transfer medium in heating and cooling systems. The chapter on pipe sizing in the ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals has separate sections for "Hydronic System Piping" (as a subsection of "Water Piping") and "Steam Piping" (as its own major section).
