Why a Boiler May Be Right for Your Home

Unlike a furnace or heat pump, a boiler works not by heating air, but by heating water or creating steam. Both steam and hot water systems offer excellent heating throughout the home. In particular, boiler–based systems, whether radiators or hydronic, are known for their moderate humidity levels during the dry months of the year.

The water vapor that comes out of steam radiators and the hot water that runs behind the walls or under the floors heats the objects in the room (including your person!) instead of the air itself. This means that the heated air will not simply be stuck at the top of the room while your feet remain cold.
