The Trane Hydronic Branch Conductor is a system component that enables users to repurpose existing water piping for both heating and cooling distribution, even in buildings with existing two-pipe branch systems, to achieve sustainable comfort with minimal structural changes and installation costs.
Pair it with hydronic heat pump systems to change heating and cooling loads zone by zone multiple times a day without the need to switch from hot to cold water seasonally for the entire building. Existing buildings with 140- to 180-degree F. hot water can be converted to a more energy-efficient 105 degrees F. hot water electrified heating supply. The Hydronic Branch Conductor is ideal for education and government buildings, commercial offices, hotels, medical offices, and high-rise residential buildings with multiple thermal zones.
