Hot Water Heater
Capabilities: A heating system that uses steam generated from a boiler. The steam heating
system conveys steam through pipes to heat exchangers, such as radiators, convectors,
radiant panels, or fan-driven heaters, and returns the resulting condensed water to the
boiler. Such systems normally operate at pressure not exceeding 15 lb/in.2 gage or 103
kilopascals gage, and in many designs the condensed steam returns to the boiler by
gravity because of the static head of water in the return piping. With utilization of available
operating and safety control devices, these systems can be designed to operate
automatically with minimal maintenance and attention.

ELECTRIC HEATER
Capabilities: A device for heating rooms that converts electric current to heat by means of
resistors that emit radiant energy. Resistors may be composed of metal-alloy wire,
nonmetallic carbon compounds, or printed circuits. Heating elements may have exposed
resistor coils mounted on insulators, metallic resistors embedded in refractory insulation
and encased in protective metal, or a printed circuit encased in glass. Fins may be used
to increase the area that dissipates the heat.
