In order for the house to be as comfortable as possible, you should pre -determine the heating and ventilation system. In the process of designing heating systems, the question arises of which type of heating to choose.
Now “warm floors” are gaining more and more popularity. Than good – uniform distribution of heat over the entire area of the room. They are of two types: electric and water. Many have the question of whether it is possible to make warm floors and not make an additional radiators? You can, but if the temperature in your area does not drop below -20o and you have good sealed chamber plastic PVC windows Rehau. If not, it is better to put the radiators additionally and turn them on as necessary to block the penetration of cold air flows from the windows.
The following question arises: which radiators to choose?
1. Cast iron radiators: not expensive, durable, durable. At the same time, they do not differ in beauty, low heat transfer, frequent depressurization of connecting joints.
2. Bimetallic radiators: sections made of light alloys, channels made of stainless steel are built into the inside. Maintain pressure up to 25 atm.
3. Aluminum radiators. The opposite of the previous option – the section is made of a difficult alloy, and the channels are not enhanced by steel. Permissible pressure up to 16 atm.
4. Steel panel radiators: aesthetic, good heat transfer. But – working pressure no more than 10 atm. Suitable for the upper floors of high -rise buildings and for private houses.
Let’s move on to the pipes. For heating supply, gas-water pipes are used. They can be steel, polymer or copper. Choosing and evaluating the characteristics of these pipes for you. Only one thing is worth noting here – steel pipes cannot be hidden and sewn in finishing materials. Important: copper pipes are not used together with aluminum radiators.
And the main question: which boiler to choose?
The most popular: gas and multi -fuel. Most boilers work with a heating system that is equipped with compulsory water circulation, that is, in other words, small electric pumps drive water through pipes. Accordingly, when turning off the light, the boiler also does not work, even if it is gas.
Modern manufacturers offer boilers on the gravitational heating system, but they have a relatively low productivity of hot water and still, when electricity is turned off, the contours of the warm floors are disconnected.
As for the multi -fuel boilers, they can work on gas and liquid fuel, there are additional – on solid. Their only significant drawback is high noise.
That’s the whole main selection of heating systems. In accordance with your needs and capabilities, it is quite possible to make your home comfortable and warm.
