For the most part, clothes drying technology hasn’t changed in
over 70 years, but the people at Hydromatic Technologies have a
new plan. They don’t make dryers, but at the 2008 International
Builders’ Show, they debuted a new technology – Hydronics- that
could make future dryers better. Hydronics is the utilization of
water or other fluids to transfer heat from one location to
another. Steam and hot water radiators are one of the oldest
forms of hydronic technology. Similar to water heater
technology, Hydronic Technologies has produced the next
generation of liquid-based technology as a heat transfer
delivery system. The result is an energy saving, faster drying
technology How it works: Made of durable copper and aluminum,
the Hydronic Dryer’s heat technology works by heating up a
specially formulated, non-toxic and non-corrosive heat transfer
fluid with an immersion element (similar to a water heater). The
fluid is transferred to a heat exchanger where it is mixed with
air. The heated air is then blown into
