How to make heating in the house

In order to make your stay comfortable, you need to know how to properly heat the house to maintain the optimum temperature. First you need to decide on the type of heating system and heating boiler.

When choosing heating for your home, preference should be given to a cheaper type of fuel in your area. And then decide on the source of heat supply: a stove, a circulating boiler or an air-heating boiler. The greatest demand is for hot air and liquid fuel carriers of the heating system.

Air heating boilers in the heating system

1. Combination of a potbelly stove and a radiator;
2. Air heating boilers of a new generation;
3. Pipe for chimney type "sandwich".

In this type of heating system is present as a number of advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of using hot air boilers

• low price of the heating system;
• easy installation;
• large range of fuel and its economical consumption;
• easy maintenance;
• high efficiency.

Cons of using hot air boilers

• while the boiler is in operation, condensation is formed, which, getting into the boiler, evaporates again, consuming energy;
• as a result of the waste of gases, tar tar, which not only reduces its diameter over time, but also is flammable;
• during installation it is necessary to observe the precautionary measures preventing the occurrence of a fire;
• fuel will always be in the living room.

Until you switch the hot-water boiler to the gas generation mode, you must constantly monitor it, otherwise fire may occur.

Liquid fuel carrier heating system

The above disadvantages are practically absent in the heating system with the circulation of a liquid heat carrier. Installation of such a system will cost you much more expensive, but at the same time it is much more convenient to use, much more reliable and fully automated. Soon you will realize that it fully corresponds to its value.

Classification of heating systems on liquid carriers

Heating systems based on liquid heat carriers are of two types:

• An open system in which the circulation of the coolant occurs naturally;
• Closed - circulation is forced.

An open system works without consuming electrical energy, since the coolant is circulated due to the temperature difference between hot and cold water.

The installation of a closed type involves the connection of a special pump and a more careful selection of pipes and heating elements suitable for operation under high pressure. The system should contain a circulation pump that consumes the minimum amount of electrical energy. These financial investments are much smaller than those that would go to an open-type circulation device.

The comparative characteristic of the efficiency of heating systems of open and closed types is as follows: for an open system, this figure is about 30%, while for a closed system it reaches 95%.

The difference in efficiency between open-type and closed-type plants is quite significant and is of considerable importance when choosing a closed-type heating system for your home, as it helps save fuel.

Heating system with a liquid heat carrier is classified depending on the type of boilers used, which are of the following types:

• Solid fuel boilers: coal, wood, briquettes and peat;
• Designs that use liquid fuel: diesel, fuel oil or spent fuel;
• Gas-fired boilers. It can be both natural and liquefied gas;
• Multi-fuel plants that can operate on solid fuel and gas;
• Heat pump.

It is more expedient to give preference to a multi-fuel or gas boiler for arranging the heating system of a private house. In order to carry out installation work yourself, you need to have certain experience and skills, in the absence of such, it is better to seek the help of qualified professionals.

Self-connected connection and start-up of equipment operating on gas is not allowed.

Advantages of a heating system based on a liquid heat carrier

• the boiler is placed in a separate room;
• the process of burning and maintaining the set temperature is automatic;
• the efficiency reaches 95%;
• high reliability and safety;
• economical fuel consumption;
• operation does not require large expenditures;
• the design is quite mobile;
• the device is known in the process of use, which negatively affects the efficiency;
• there is the possibility of flooding;
• automatic system may crash or break;
• the operation of the circular pump may suddenly stop;
• if you do not plan to live in a private house in the winter, the water from the system must be drained, or pour non-freezing water;
• installation work and equipment are quite expensive;
• obtaining permission to perform gasification costs a lot;
• The cost of the heating system is directly dependent on energy tariffs.
• reduced efficiency as liming heating system;

Cons of liquid coolant

What heating system and related equipment to choose is up to you. This is determined by many factors: the size of the heated room, the quality of the thermal insulation of the dwelling, the reliability of the door and window openings, the flooring, the number of squares in the house, the material of the interior floors and much more.

Some heating systems can be installed by hand, while others will require careful development and design, so the choice is solely the owner of the house. The main thing is that your heating system does not cause discomfort to the people next to you and be as safe as possible.

We advise you to read:

• heat pump for home heating;
• boiler for heating the house with their own hands.
