COLD-WEATHER CONCRETING WITH HYDRONIC HEATERS

A rapidly growing number of contractors have turned to hydronic heating equipment to help solve their cold-weather concreting problems. Hydronic heaters offer a unique combination of high performance at a lower cost. Low temperature differentials between hoses and the concrete ensure safe, even heating. This article examines how hydronic heaters work, describes various applications in different concreting settings, and discusses the benefits they provide to concrete contractors and to the concrete construction industry.
