Synopsis

I wrote this book to describe the beautiful workings of hydronic heating systems and I tried to use words that made the subject spring to life in a visual way. It's been one of my best-selling books for years. I kept the drawings simple. Even if you've never worked with hydronics before, you'll be able to follow these drawings. The first part deals with boiler-room piping and explains how you can put the discoveries of the late, great Gil Carlson to work for you. If you pipe Gil's way, you'll save time, money and never again have to bleed radiators. Thousands of installers have reported great success by following the principles in the first part of this book. I wish I could take credit but the genius was Gil Carlson's. I just did my best to tell his story in plain English. The second half of the book takes the "Pumping Away" boiler-room piping design and applies it to a delicious menu of piping options. This is a book that you'll refer to again and again. It will save you time and money. And I guarantee that. - Dan Holohan

Review

If I were allowed only one Holohan book I would choose Pumping Away! This book was written in plain English for Everyman. It's the hydronicians bible and should be the most-often-used, dog-eared book in your collection. A copy at home and in your truck is a must. I can't think of a better Christmas present for your competitors. You know the ones that need them most. :) Buy a dozen or more. - Bob Hot Rod Rohr --HeatingHelp.com Customer

This is the 3rd Pumping Away book we have bought in the last few years. We keep wearing them out letting new techs and installers read them! This is a great book for anyone doing any kind of hydronic work! --HeatingHelp.com Customer
