[![Hydronic Heating](https://cougarusa.com/hubfs/Cougarusa_August2024/Images/Hydronic%20Heating.png)](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hydronic-heating) ### [Hydronic Heating](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hydronic-heating) Hydronic loops are an efficient way to deliver comfort heating to commercial buildings.  The Heating Water systems circulate water in a closed loop (not open to the atmosphere) from a Boiler to the building to transfer heat into the space through Air Handlers and Fan Coil Units.

Whether it’s the building height, size, specialty applications, or a combination of all three, these buildings will require Pressure Boosting Systems to operate properly.

The atmospheric tank creates an air gap between the city supply and the building piping, decoupling the building from the city supply, and providing multiple benefits.

As water is used in the building, an automatic system is required to replenish the water and maintain a constant level in the tank. In domestic applications, this process can repeat multiple times an hour during peak demand loads. An automatic level-control system has two main components, Fill Valves and Controls.

The [2015 Uniform Plumbing Code Section 608.2](https://epubs.iapmo.org/UPC/mobile/index.html#p=141) states that PRVs are required at any point where the system static pressure exceeds 80 PSI. Typically, this applies to mid- and high-rise buildings when the pressure boost to serve the upper floors is over 80 PSI. It takes a combination of valves and safety devices to create a Pressure Reducing Station.

There are three main types of sump pump stations: [Learn More](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/sump-pumps) [![Domestic Hot Water Distribution](https://cougarusa.com/hubfs/Cougarusa_August2024/Images/thumb_156_21.webp)](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hot-water-distribution) ### [Domestic Hot Water Distribution](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hot-water-distribution) ## Domestic Hot Water Distribution Domestic Hot Water Systems are simple in theory – deliver hot water to fixtures – but increasingly complex in practice. A delicate balance between comfort, safety, and energy savings must be addressed in the design, installation, and operation of these systems.  [Learn More](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hot-water-distribution) [![Hydronic Cooling](https://cougarusa.com/hubfs/Cougarusa_August2024/Images/thumb_156_22.webp)](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hydronic-cooling) ### [Hydronic Cooling](https://cougarusa.com/solutions/hydronic-cooling) ## Hydronic Cooling Hydronic Cooling Loops in commercial buildings use water to cool primarily for comfort but can also be used for cooling equipment and other process applications.
