2. Central heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

   Hydronic heating systems are also used with antifreeze solutions in ice and snow melt systems for walkways, parking lots and streets. They are more commonly used in commercial and whole house radiant floor heat projects, whereas electric radiant heat systems are more commonly used in smaller "spot warming" applications.

3. Thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

   The power through the thermostat is provided by the heating device and may range from millivolts to 240 volts in common North American construction, and is used to control the heating system either directly (electric baseboard heaters and some electric furnaces) or indirectly (all gas, oil and forced hot water systems).

   This allows a more granular application of heat, similar to non-central heating systems. Zones are controlled by multiple thermostats. In water heating systems the thermostats control zone valves, and in forced air systems they control zone dampers inside the vents which selectively block the flow of air. In this case, the control system is ...

6. Heating system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_system

   Distributed heating systems: These systems generate heat in the space they are to heat, without extensive duct systems. Examples include electric space heaters, fireplaces, and solar heating. [ 5 ] Distributed heating systems can be used in combine with central heating to allow year round climate control. [ 6 ]

7. Fan coil unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_coil_unit

   The thermostat controls the fan speed and/or the flow of water or refrigerant to the heat exchanger using a control valve. Due to their simplicity, flexibility, and easy maintenance, fan coil units can be more economical to install than ducted 100% fresh air systems (VAV) or central heating systems with air handling units or chilled beams.
