Where would a floor mounted hydronic cooling convector be located in a room?

  1. Near the entrance

  2. On the wall with the lowest heat gain

  3. Next to the window

  4. On the wall with the highest heat gain

The correct answer is: On the wall with the highest heat gain

A floor mounted hydronic cooling convector would be located on the wall with the highest heat gain in a room. This is because the convector is designed to draw in warm air from the room, cool it through the hydronic system, and then release it back into the room. Placing it on the wall with the highest heat gain ensures that the warm air is being pulled in and cooled efficiently. Placing it near the entrance or next to the window may not be as effective as it would not be in the path of the warm air. Placing it on the wall with the lowest heat gain may also not be as effective as it may not be in an area where the warm air is circulating. Therefore, option D is the best choice for optimal cooling.
