Installation of water heating of a country house

Only very determined people give upan ordinary wood-burning stove in a country house. And yet, it is no longer it is the main heating unit. A modern comfortable house requires a heating system. It can be gas, air, water. Now you can choose the most acceptable in certain conditions way of heating a cottage, villa, townhouse.

Well, if the choice of heating system (for example,water) is still at the design stage. In Russia, this is the most common way of heating the living quarters. Already in the process of construction work is being done to facilitate the installation of a water heating system. If a water pipe is laid near the construction site, then a connection is made to it, and the problem of water supply and, accordingly, water heating is solved. You can dig a well or punch a well - in this case these systems become autonomous in the literal sense of the word. The pump connected to these sources is able to meet all the water needs in a sufficient amount.

Often the installation of heating, water supplyproduce in an already ready, and even the old house. This complicates and increases the cost of work, but the list of necessary equipment is in any case unchanged: boiler, pipes, fittings (supports, fasteners, connecting elements), heating devices (radiators). Sometimes you need a powerful electric pump and a storage tank for water.

Installation of water heating is impossible without a project,it determines the specificity of the given object and depends on what type of system is assumed: with natural or forced circulation. And in accordance with it, necessary and additional equipment is purchased.

If the heating and water supply systemconnects to the public highway and provides for the laying of a pipeline through municipal lands, then a project coordinated with all official interested services is needed. As a rule, such engineering project of water supply and heating is created by professionals and takes into account all the features of the territory and relief. In the case where the installation of water heating is carried out from its own well or well, there is no need for such an agreement.

Piping in the house depends on the location of the connectionthe external water supply to the house, the location of the boiler, the location and the number of heating units (radiators). All this should be fixed on the work plan.

The optimal pipeline should be straight, but,if possible, without right angles. Joints, folds often cause leakage, so they should be as small as possible. Pipes for external installation and in-house should be of different diameters.

If the installation of water heating providesradiators, then the pipes should have a diameter of not more than 3/4 inches, for a two-pipe system, 60-100 mm pipes are required. For the heating system, pipes made of soft steel are used. But they are prone to corrosion, so more often they use stainless steel pipes. Galvanized pipes are also used.

The main and main part of the heating system -boiler. There are heating boilers of various modifications: solid fuel (coal, wood, briquettes), gas, liquid fuel (fuel oil, diesel fuel). Increasingly, consumers are choosing boilers that are heated by electricity. Often, homeowners choose boilers with a combined heating system.

Choosing the type of boiler - the most simple, simple or full-service, thermostat, automatic switches, even with programmatic control, depends on financial possibilities.

A person with technical knowledge andcertain practical skills, the power to carry out the installation of water heating with their own hands, but it is better to instruct this task to qualified specialists.
