Technical Description
Water heating systems can be configured to provide both hot water and space heating. Combined heating sources can include boilers, tankless water heaters, solar water heaters, and other systems. Multi-function heating systems sometimes deliver space heating through a hydronic under-floor system but can also be used with other hot water and air distribution systems. One of the benefits of multi-function heating systems is that they avoid the cost and space with a separate space heating system, such as a separate furnace and water heater.
