Salesperson Weiss is viewing a basement heating system that relies on gravity to operate. The system is quiet and provides steady heat. What type of heating system is this?

Electric
Hot Water
Radiant
Steam
Warm Air

The correct answer is: Hot Water

The correct answer is Hot Water. In a gravity-based hot water heating system, hot water rises through the pipes to radiators located throughout the house, releasing heat which in turn cools the water, causing it to sink back down to be reheated. This system is known for being quiet and providing consistent, steady heat. Electric heating systems use electricity to generate heat, radiant heating systems rely on transferring heat directly from a warm surface, steam heating systems use steam to heat radiators, and warm air heating systems use a furnace to distribute heated air throughout the house. None of these systems match the description provided in the question, making hot water the most suitable answer.
