OUTDOOR DESIGN

Typically set to the temperature of the coldest day of
the year. The outdoor air temperature used in the boiler
and mixing heating curves that determine the boiler
target and the mix target temperatures.

MIX DESIGN

The supply water temperature required for the mix
zones to heat the building on the typical coldest day
of the year. Recommendations:

High mass radiant floor = 120°F (50°C)
Low mass radiant floor = 140°F (60°C)
Fancoil or air handling unit = 190°F (90°C)
Copper fin-tube convector = 180°F (80°C)
Radiators = 160°F (70°C)
Low profile baseboard = 150°F (65°C)
