1. A hydronic system for heating and cooling a plurality of rooms of a building, comprising:
a partition;
a first conduit embedded in a first side of the partition;
a second conduit embedded in a second side of the partition;
at least one first valve and at least one first pump connected to the first conduit, the at least one first valve and the at least one first pump are configured to control a flow of a fluid inside the first conduit thereby forming a first closed loop;
at least one second valve and at least one second pump connected to the second conduit, the at least one second valve and the at least one second pump are configured to control a flow of the fluid inside the second conduit thereby forming a second closed loop; and
at least one third valve connected to the first conduit and the second conduit, the at least one third valve is configured to control a flow of the fluid between the first conduit and the second conduit thereby forming a third closed loop;
wherein, when the hydronic system is operating in an isolating mode, a first portion of the fluid flows in the first closed loop through the first conduit and a second portion of the fluid flows in the second closed loop through the second conduit, and when the hydronic system is operating in a heat exchange mode, the first potion and the second portion of the fluid flows between the first conduit and the second conduit in the third closed loop.
