When building a country house in the projectnecessarily includes the arrangement of the boiler room. It can be located either in the house itself (usually in the basement or in the back room) or in a separate building. In any case, the arrangement of the boiler room must comply with the norms of SNiP.
Installing heating equipment in a separate building saves space in the house itself. Moreover, in this case, the boiler room is more secure.
When constructing such a structure, the following requirements for a boiler room must be observed:
Locate the boiler room in a separate building,Of course, convenient. But the ability to build such a building is not every owner of a country house. Therefore, most often the boiler room is still located on the ground floors or in the outbuildings in the residential building itself. In this case, when arranging it, it is also necessary to comply with certain norms of SNiP. Boiler installations are mounted in rooms:
The minimum volume of the room for gas boiler installations - 15 m3.
In addition to the boiler itself for the arrangement of the boiler room are purchased:
In addition, various types of additional equipment can be mounted on boiler plants: deaerators, storage tanks, water heaters, etc.
This equipment is included in the heatingThe system is usually only in houses of a large area with a large number of radiators. The main structural elements of the classic collector are two pipes (supply and return) with several outlets. On expensive models, various additional automating or controlling elements can be used.
Installation of the heating collector is usually done inspecial closet. Sometimes it is placed and just in the wall niche. The number of outlets is selected depending on how many radiator groups you plan to connect.
The design of all commercially available todaydistribution nodes are about the same. Models differ, as already mentioned, mainly only by the presence or absence of various kinds of additions and “frills”. An expensive heating manifold for a boiler house, in addition to supply and discharge outputs, may include:
Самый простой и дешевый распределительный the collector of the heating system is a conventional brass or steel tube with threads and outlets for connecting the highways. If desired, such models can later be retrofitted with thermal heads and flowmeters separately. Self-made distribution units are usually made of polypropylene tees.
В сложных отопительных системах с несколькими consumption zones (warm floor, boiler, a large number of radiator circuits) usually use a special kind of collectors. Such models are complemented by the so-called hydraulic gun. The latter is responsible for the distribution of water according to the degree of heating. A heating collector with a hydraulic needle eliminates the possibility of interaction between the elements of the system and thereby increases its performance.
The collector of heating for a boiler room is establishedusually in close proximity to the boiler itself. Supply and return lines to the radiators from it are most often stretched along the floor. In new buildings, in most cases, pipes are poured with concrete. At the same time, in order to avoid heat losses, the highways are previously insulated.
Such equipment is not too expensive.If desired, you can choose a cheap and at the same time sufficiently reliable collector for heating. The price for the cheapest model is 250-500 rubles. The cost of more advanced collectors with flowmeters, thermal heads, etc., starts from 4-5 thousand rubles. The most expensive models of foreign production with automatic regulation can be sold for 14-16 thousand rubles.
This equipment, of course, is the main one in the heating system. Today in private homes can be installed boilers:
At the same time the most popular boiler equipmentfor the boiler room - gas. These boilers are more expensive than electric. But at the same time and in operation they are much more economical. Electric models are usually mounted only where there are no gas lines. If in the area where the house is built, there is no power line, either diesel or solid fuel boilers are usually installed.
Installation of such boilers requires mandatory approval by the supervising organization. Modern industry produces gas boilers of two main types:
Before installing the first type of equipmentthat section of the wall on which the boiler will be located is necessarily sheathed with a sheet of refractory material (for wooden walls). These are the requirements of the SNiP. Gas-fired boiler installations should be mounted on a strictly horizontal surface. In the annex it may be, for example, a concrete pedestal. Lightweight models can be mounted on a pre-planed metal sheet.
On the one hand, a supply pipe from the well is connected to the boiler (through a water treatment system), on the other hand, a distribution comb (or simply a supply line to the system).
The following requirements are imposed on chimneys according to SNiP:
Heating equipment of this typecan be installed anywhere. Ventilation in this case is also not necessary to equip. The only limitation is that it is not allowed to install very powerful electric boilers in public buildings under the premises in which mass crowds of people are possible.
Such equipment is not classified as explosive, and therefore the requirements for its installation are small. The minimum floor area in this case is 8 m.2. Before firing such a boiler should lie metal sheet. The rest of the floor is covered with fire resistant material. The room must be equipped with a window of at least 0.8 m2 per 1 kW boiler. Also, according to the standards, a fire extinguisher and a sandbox are placed in the boiler room.
To install such equipment assolid fuel or electric, do not need to get any permits. However, the requirements for the premises in this case are rather strict due to the need for fuel storage.
The door leading from the boiler to the internalpremises must be fireproof (class III protection). The minimum distance from the front surface of the boiler to the opposite wall is 1 m. The volume of fuel stored in the tank should not exceed 900 liters. The walls in such rooms should be trimmed with tiles or mineral plaster. In one of them, a niche is usually arranged for a heating collector. For a boiler room, when using diesel equipment, a stand-alone structure is most often erected.
This type of equipment is used to protectboiler installations from premature wear. The use of hard water in the heating system leads to the appearance of scale on its structural elements, as well as to the accelerated rusting of the latter. Using the water treatment group allows you to solve this problem by purifying water from all sorts of impurities. This system usually includes such equipment as:
Installed water treatment group most oftenin the basement, on the inlet line supplying water from the well. The first is always a prefilter filter that removes solid particles of dirt and sludge from the water.
The use of such equipment allowsmake the heating system forced, and therefore more efficient and productive. There are many models of circulating pumps on sale. When choosing this equipment, first of all, pay attention to its pressure and performance. In addition, take into account the type used in the coolant system. A circulation pump is usually mounted on the return pipe next to the boiler on the bypass.
When choosing such equipment should alsoadhere to certain recommendations. Broad tanks in modern boiler rooms are used usually closed type. Open models are used only in gravity-based heating systems, which are being installed in our time quite rarely.
Chimneys for boilers can be usedbrick or metal. In the latter case, black, stainless or galvanized steel is used to manufacture the pipe. Metal chimneys to prevent the formation of condensation and soot additionally insulated.
