Make sure the heat is distributed evenly
across the full heating surface – open all
radiators and keep the radiators in the
system from heating up at the bottom. It
is extremely important to keep the supply
temperature to the radiators as low as
possible, while maintaining a reasonable
level of comfort.

The system should feature electronic
controls as well as return sensors.
