   A drawback is the installation cost, which can be slightly higher than traditional HVAC systems. Energy efficiency can be improved even more in central heating systems by introducing zoned heating. This allows a more granular application of heat, similar to non-central heating systems. Zones are controlled by multiple thermostats.

4. Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing - Wikipedia

   Heating, cooling, ventilation and exhaustion are all key areas to consider in the mechanical planning of a building. [4] In special cases, water cooling/heating, humidity control or air filtration [5] may also be incorporated. For example, Google's data centres make extensive use of heat exchangers to cool their servers. [6]

5. Central heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

   The energy cost of heating is one of the main costs of operating a building in a cold climate. Some central heating plants can switch fuels for reasons of economy and convenience; for example, a home owner may install a wood-fired furnace with electrical backup for occasional unattended operation.

6. Heating system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_system

   A heating system is a mechanism designed to regulate and maintain a desired temperature within a space by utilizing thermal energy. It is a fundamental component of Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems, providing warmth to residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

7. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_heating_and_cooling

   Radiant heating and cooling originated as separate systems but now share a similar form. Radiant heating has a long history in Asia and Europe. The earliest systems, from as early as 5000 BC, were found in northern China and Korea. Archaeological findings show kang and dikang, heated beds and floors in ancient Chinese homes. Kang originated in ...
