The gravity-circulation hot-water system eliminated most of these problems, but it introduced others. The forces producing circulation of the water were small, resulting in a very sluggish response to heating needs. Also, when the water was heated the dissolved air separated out and collected in the radiators, making it necessary to eliminate the air frequently. 1, record 1, English, - gravity%2Dcirculation%20hot%2Dwater%20system

Les installations à eau chaude à circulation naturelle. La ou les chaudières dans lesquelles la chaleur est produite se trouvent dans la partie la plus basse du bâtiment et sont réunies aux corps de chauffe par un réseau de canalisations. Le mouvement de l'eau est causé uniquement par la différence de masse volumique entre l'eau chaude et l'eau froide. La dilatation de l'eau par suite de son réchauffage est absorbée dans un vase d'expansion. 1, record 1, French, - installation%20%C3%A0%20eau%20chaude%20%C3%A0%20circulation%20naturelle
