Central heating system in greenhouse.

Most systems will use rocks or water for the heat mass. They can be unit heaters convection heaters or radiant heaters. There are active and passive solar greenhouse heating systems that you can implement for your greenhouse. Boilers are pressure vessels designed to heat water or produce steam which can then be used to provide space heating and or service water heating to a building.

These systems typically incorporate a heat mass that can absorb the heat and then give it off to the surrounding area. This radiant heating method works on the same principal as the average central heating installations in homes. Boilers heat with steam or hot water and can burn a variety of fuels. Central heating systems consist of a boiler in a central location.

Most central heating systems use steel copper or aluminum pipes to distribute hot water through the greenhouse. Local heating systems are usually placed at one end of the greenhouse. Both gas and oil fired boilers use controlled combustion of the fuel to heat water.
