Types of Fuel:
The methods of
heating water vary
but in the long run it
is a matter of
personal choice with
respect to cost and
availability of fuel.
being heated by the boiler is actually used out of the hot water faucets.

The installation for hot water distribution consists of the piping work
that conveys the heated water from the storage tank to the
plumbing fixtures.
1. Upfeed & Gravity Return (Recirculation) System With this
system, as the hot water in the pipe cools, the cooled water, being heavier
than the hot water , slowly flows down the return pipes to the heaters while
the hot water replaces it in the system.
2. Overhead feed & Gravity Return (Recirculation) System The
operating principle of the overhead system is based on the fact that in the
closed system of piping, water rises when heated. After it has reached the
high point of the system, natural forces of gravity return it to the storage
unit.
3. Pump Circuit System (Pumped Recirculation) The circulation of
hot water to the plumbing fixtures by means of a mechanical device,
usually a centrifugal pump. This is used in buildings where the other
systems already mentioned are not suitable to produce a circulation of hot
water.
