how can it be hot water and electrical system as well?
'makes no sense!
hydronic systems teaches about building space-heating using electrics or gas fired boilers,

Don't see that mechanicaldup mentioned heating the building -- if so, wouldn't it be more efficient to electrically heat each room with radiant heaters?
Maybe just HW for sinks & such.
 
thks gents
The application is electrical hot water generation for showers, bath etc..
 
Now I understand:
you need a standard hot water heater.
ussually if you need more than 100 GL, you can install one or more heaters or one larger "generator" with a storage tank,
the system is similar to a gas fired but instead of generating the water heating with gas you use electricity.
It is not a rare situation.
supplies systems.. , I cheked the page iand is down now, I will check later.
