The private house is associated with warmth and comfort. Immediately remember the crackling of firewood in the fireplace, warm plaid and chair. But in modern conditions, the house needs not only to warm up, but also to do it as quickly and economically. There are several types of autonomous heating boilers, which are distinguished by fuel species, the method of placement, the number of contours. The purpose of this article is to assist when choosing a heating boiler for a private house.
Classification of boilers according to the type of fuel consumed
Depending on the energy source used, the heating system is:
- gas using natural or liquefied gas;
- electric;
- solid fuel;
- liquid-fuel;
- combined.
How to determine the power of the boiler
To find out which power there should be an aggregate, you need to take into account a number of factors:
- Thermal insulation of the house (whether windows, doors, attic, walls, etc. are insulated).
- The average monthly temperature in the winter.
- Additional load (water heating, warm floor).
On average, it is assumed that 1-1.5 kW will be enough for heating of 10 m2 of the area.
Gas boilers for a private house
Gas boilers are the most sought-after and common. They have a rather high level of efficiency, long service life. There are models wall and outdoor. However, equipment is installed only special services. We are in demand by the boilers of the German company Vaillant, Slovak Protherm and domestic AOGV and AKGV.
Solid fuel boilers
To work this device, you need firewood, peat, coal or briquettes. The availability of fuel is the main advantage. There are boilers of classical combustion and long-term (pyrolysis). The performance of the second type is higher. The disadvantages are the impossibility of full process automation and strict compliance with fire safety measures. The market offers their products Dakon and Viadrus, Grandeg and Bourges K.
Electric boilers
Electric boilers work silently, easily mounted and safe. For their operation, a three-phase network is needed at 380 V and uninterrupted power supply. Note that the electricity account will significantly increase. Because of this, electricity equipment mainly serves as a backup option in conjunction with other types of heating. In this segment they earned the confidence of the boilers Russian, Eleko and Protherm.
Liquid fuel boilers
Boilers on liquid fuel are small due to higher prices, the need to create diesel fuel reserves, features of operation and installation. In return, get complete autonomy and almost 100% heat transfer. Popular manufacturers such as Wolf, Ferroli, CTC, Kiturami are popular. Russian boilers have low efficiency and minimum automation.
Combined boilers
This is a multifunctional equipment in which the diesel fuel and gas, solid fuel and gas, or 4 types of fuel can be combined as a fuel. The pleasure is not cheap, cumbersome, but necessary if there are interruptions in the supply of energy.
As a result, you only need to decide what kind of fuel is preferable, calculate the power and weigh the financial capabilities.
