When creating a heating system for suburban housing, first of all, a design for the boiler house included in it is developed. Without this, it is almost impossible to ensure efficient heat distribution throughout the building. While its constituent boiler equipment will become a good decision heating problems. And in order to choose the right appliances for a private home, you should take into account some nuances and use certain recommendations.
Purpose of the boiler room
A private boiler house means a set of devices designed to provide country housing with heating and hot water. Its installation is necessary in cases where:
- use of centralized heating system in a private house is impossible due to the large distance to the nearest highway. In this case, solid fuel boilers are most often used (for an electric unit there is no need to install boiler rooms);
- independent regulation of the coolant temperature is required, which in a conventional heating system depends on a centralized supply and does not allow either saving by reducing gas consumption or, conversely, increasing the temperature in the room (for example, in severe frost), neglecting expenses.
The advantage of this mini-complex is not only the ability to set the time and intensity of heating at the user’s discretion.
If it's not about gas boilers(capable of operating on liquid gas), then the system using its own boiler house is a non-volatile equipment that is not affected by interruptions in gas supply and various preventative work utilities.
Installation features
In water heating systems of private or country house installation of equipment operating on gas (conventional and liquefied), diesel fuel, electricity and solid fuel (including firewood, pellets, coke, peat and coal) is carried out.
At the same time, electrical equipment does not require the installation of a separate complex, since they themselves constitute an autonomous system.
Diesel fuel boilers are used very rarely due to the high cost of maintenance and low environmental friendliness.
Thus, most often the project for organizing a heating system for private housing involves the installation of gas or solid fuel boiler houses.
Heating, which uses gas equipment and requires the presence of central highway, is the most profitable option for heating a private home. It is more expensive to install it yourself and operate a system in which the energy carrier is the same gas, but liquefied. Although the efficiency of providing housing with heat in this case remains at good level, due to which gas boiler houses are used more often than others.
The design of the premises for such a complex must be created in compliance with the following rules:
- equipment with a power of up to 30 kW can be installed in one of the rooms of the building. With greater productivity, it requires a separate building;
- For the boiler room, a room is required, which must be located on the ground floor and have a volume of at least 15 cubic meters. If the boiler is installed, for example, in the kitchen of a private house, minimum dimensions the rooms double in size;
- the room requires effective ventilation, and the wall decoration must have a fire resistance of at least 0.75 hours ( high quality plaster or tile);
- a substrate is placed between the boiler and the floor, protruding beyond the edges of the equipment by 10 cm around the entire perimeter. And the distance to the nearest pieces of furniture should be at least 0.7–1 m.
It is advisable that the boiler be installed on a podium with a height of 0.2 m, poured separately from the general foundation. The floor of the room is made of non-combustible material - for example, cement screed. If the mini-complex, due to its high power, is located in a separate building, it should not have common walls with a residential building.
Solid fuel equipment
Installation of solid fuel boilers has become more profitable after rising prices for gaseous fuels and other types of hydrocarbon energy carriers.
When arranging them with your own hands, it is necessary to take into account that for normal operation equipment, the diameters of the chimney and the boiler pipe must match. This often results in a significant pipe height required to create enough drainage flue gases pressure
The boiler room must be equipped with exhaust ventilation with an exhaust area of at least 8 sq. cm for each kW of equipment power (24 sq. cm for a boiler installed in the basement).
The layer of wall plaster should have a thickness of 3 cm or more. A steel sheet is placed under the boiler.
The area of a separate room must be at least 8 square meters. m, and the ceiling height is from 2.5 m.
Boiler house installation
Since the boiler room design may include their installation both in a residential building and separately, the requirements for the equipment also differ. So, if the complex is located in one of the rooms of the house, in some cases (for example, if there is a noisy forced-air burner), additional sound insulation may be needed.
While boilers installed in individual buildings are the safest and practical option, although they require relatively large capital investments.
The basic equipment needed to operate a heating system usually does not depend on the location of the room, or even on the type of fuel used to operate it. Almost all boiler rooms consist of the following elements:
- heating boiler;
- boiler (water heater);
- expansion tank;
- distribution manifolds;
- chimneys;
- safety and boiler feed systems;
- pipes and shut-off valves.
The boilers in this complex are heat generators. Fuel combustion occurs in them, due to which the coolant (usually water, less often antifreeze) is heated and supplied to the water heating system and to the boiler (if available), which is necessary to provide housing with hot water.
A heated liquid circulates inside such a device, increasing the temperature of the water used for domestic needs.
Tanks and collectors
The purpose of expansion tanks is to compensate overpressure coolant to eliminate the risk of creating an emergency situation in the heating system of a private home, in which pipes could burst.
A distribution manifold, consisting of a pump, hydraulic separator and comb, is necessary for proper circulation of the coolant and its uniform flow into different contours systems (hot water supply, radiators, “warm floors”).
Chimneys and security systems
Chimneys are necessary to remove combustion products from the boiler room. Not only the safety, but also the efficiency of the boilers depends on how they are installed and the parameters are selected.
And the tasks of the make-up and safety systems are to control the pressure of the liquid circulating through the pipelines. Only the first prevents a decrease in pressure due to leaks and evaporation, and the second, on the contrary, increases it by removing air from the pipes.
Automation and fittings
Automation installed in mini boiler rooms of a private house is necessary for the operation of equipment (turning on, turning off, setting the required air parameters) in the absence of a person and ensuring additional safety of heating and hot water supply systems.
It may depend on the power supply (in this case, the boiler can work independently for up to several days) or have mechanical regulators. Pipes and shut-off valves are required to ensure water circulation in the system.
No matter how warm a wooden house is at any time of the year, during the winter cold it cannot do without a reliable and proven heating system. In most cases, its heart will be a gas boiler. This is due not only to the widespread availability of main hydrocarbon lines, but also to the fact that such fuel has the most optimal parameters in terms of calorific value, autonomy, and flow stability.
Requirements for the boiler room project
Boiler room in wooden house often based on gas fuel. With its help it is possible to maintain effective work in all heated rooms. However, such a system has a significant drawback regarding the need to coordinate projects, large quantity requirements and a certain formality in the approach to individuals. To do the installation gas boiler in a wooden house, you will need to fulfill all the requirements established by the relevant services.
Typical installation of a gas boiler in wooden buildings permitted according to current building codes in the following cases:
- compliance with standards fire safety;
- the house should not be an old apartment building.
Also, during design and installation, you will have to take into account some operational and design features:
- a gas boiler room in a private house is installed with your own hands either at the basement level or in a room specially designated for it;
- the interior of the room must be consistent with sanitary requirements and fire safety rules;
- It is not allowed to install the boiler in residential rooms;
- the system must have personal protective equipment and primary means fire extinguishing systems, except for sensors and alarms.
A gas boiler room in a private house should not be installed in a regular basement; special equipment and an individual room will be required.
Before starting, it is necessary to check the functionality of the system, the hood for a gas boiler in a private house, and compliance with current standards and regulations in terms of the assembly of individual components and their location relative to each other. The inspection must be carried out by a State Supervision inspector.

How to put the boiler room in order
All Required documents must be collected in advance. Before installing a gas boiler in a house, the owners must agree on a minimum package:
- admission to in writing from Rostekhnadzor;
- grounding measurements and compliance with their standards;
- detailed version heating project for a wooden house.
In some cases, this list may be expanded with additional documents required by the organization involved in the gas industry.
To the room where the boiler is expected to be located gas installation, there are special requirements:
- reliable ventilation of forced or natural type;
- compliance with electrical and fire safety measures;
- convenient access without blocking the passage to the boiler.
Also, according to the standards, it must be carried out interior decoration fireproof materials. This is due to increased fire hazard equipment.
Before installing a boiler up to 30 kW in the house, you will need to prepare a room of at least 9 m2 with standard ceilings.
The room should be daylight, as well as the presence of a window to ensure periodic ventilation. The walls are treated from the inside with fire-resistant impregnation.
The premises are equipped supply and exhaust ventilation. There are minimum requirements for installing a hood. For each kilowatt, 8 cm 2 of ventilation area is provided. When calculating chimneys, the parameters from the roof canopy are taken into account. To increase traction, it is allowed to install a deflector. The horizontal parts of the chimney are limited in total length. The parameter should not exceed 300 cm. A maximum of two rotary couplings are allowed to be installed in the entire system.
Hanging the boiler
The existing rules for installing a boiler in frame and log residential premises differ from each other. For a hollow frame, special mounting tires are used. It is advisable to fasten massive structures using through studs. At the exit outside the building they are fixed by thread.

The vertical frame surface is significantly loaded due to the installation of the boiler, so it is necessary to take into account the permissible limits on the weight of the equipment. It is recommended to use in such a situation floor model boiler
IN timber house, just like in log fixation, more in a simple way. Wood bolts are used, which are reliable and easy to use. Be sure to maintain the dimensional parameters up to the window or door.

Protective backing
The wooden wall behind the gas boiler must be protected from exposure high temperatures. Installation of a thermal protective layer is provided here. It is performed in two versions:
- vertical surface is protected basalt insulation, and mounted on it from the outside a metal sheet;
- Prepared special sheets of basalt are attached to the surface, which reduces the thickness of the layer, but does not reduce efficiency.
It is prohibited by current regulations to hang a gas boiler on the wall without prior thermal fire protection.
Varieties of alternative systems
In addition to the classic gas boiler, other heating methods are used. One of the popular options is to install a gas convector. It can also function without connecting to a natural gas line. It is enough to connect the device to a liquefied hydrocarbon cylinder so that it begins to heat the room.
The gas container can be placed even in more than one room, so as not to spoil appearance interior From outside the building, gas is introduced through a pipe, and exhaust gas is also extracted. It will also be necessary to lay a pipe for the supply of fresh oxygen. Do-it-yourself installation of a gas convector is shown in the video. The disadvantage of this arrangement is that the installation of a gas convector must be carried out in each room intended for heating, in contrast to the boiler, which is installed alone for all rooms.

Heating a country house is an important condition for comfortable living in a house. It is for this reason that the boiler room should be taken care of even before finishing begins. facing works. Today, manufacturers offer various energy generators for heating.
Thus, gas equipment for a boiler room in a private building is designed and equipped in accordance with the most stringent requirements. The main reason is the possibility of explosion.
The second place of honor is occupied by boilers using solid and liquid fuels. Compared to gas appliances, they are not as explosive, however, they must be placed in a separate room. It is important to equip it with a high-quality supply and exhaust ventilation system and it is necessary to provide a special channel for the removal of chimney gases.
Electric boilers are easy to install. They do not require installation in a special combustion room. But in this option there are special rules related to safe use.
Since the gas boiler room in private housing construction is the most high requirements, accordingly, let’s talk about this equipment in more detail. The remaining types of heating installations automatically meet the requirements created for gas appliances.
Requirements for the installation of gas boiler equipment
Those who want to install a minimum power boiler in their home should know that they do not need a separate room for the firebox. It is for this reason that you are arranging gas device in the kitchen space, observing the required standards:
- The area of the room must be at least 15 square meters;
- Ceiling surface more than two meters;
- The window opening must certainly have a window;
- Supply and exhaust ventilation system rooms;
- In the wall surface above floor surface at the bottom door leaf there must be air intake openings that provide air flow;
- It is important to install the boiler next to the wall surface from a non-flammable material.
If the room does not have wall surfaces made of non-combustible materials, then the arrangement of a boiler room in a private building allows for installation of the device on a plastered wall made of natural solid wood. But it must certainly be covered with a metal screen that reflects heat.
For a gas installation with a power of at least 30 kW you need separate space. The requirements for its arrangement mainly depend on the location. Let's talk about the most popular devices.
Installation in a separate room
The installation of a boiler room in a country house, operating on natural gas, is permissible in the attic, as well as on the desired floor.
In this option, the following requirements must be adhered to:
- good lighting;
- separate exit to the street;
- the room must be more than 15 cubic meters;
- free access to the unit and additional equipment;
- exhaust ventilation system;
- rooms located next to the combustion room must be separated from it by a wall surface with fire-resistant characteristics.
Ventilation
For high-quality operation of a gas heating device, an uninterrupted air flow is needed. It should be enough to both maintain combustion and remove gases.
To ensure good air exchange, a minimum power device in a dilapidated building usually requires natural ventilation of the furnace room. Air comes here from the cracks in the windows, doorways, as well as through other non-densities.
If the boiler room has sealed windows and doorways, then you cannot do without additional ventilation.
Selecting and installing the device
For those who want to know how to equip a boiler room with their own hands, it is important to know that before starting the installation it is worth choosing a set of the required equipment. The boiler is selected depending on climatic conditions and the volume of rooms for heating.
To calculate the boiler power for small space no more than 200 square meters, where the ceiling surface does not exceed a few meters, and the wall surface is insulated, like window and door openings, enormous efforts are not required. For these purposes, the footage should be multiplied by the power of the installation, as in the photo of the boiler room, per every 10 meters of square space. This indicator was derived through an experiment for various Russian climatic territories.
Specialists will arrange the necessary optional equipment, focusing on the design documentation, will connect the device to the chimney, arrange automated system, and will also carry out commissioning work.
Photo of a boiler room in a private house
During the construction of a country house, the layout of each room is carefully thought out, including the placement of the toilet, and taking into account the size of the window in the boiler room. Not a single cottage is complete without a boiler room. The furnace or boiler room must be equipped in accordance with certain requirements not only SNiP, but also safety regulations, otherwise you risk getting a fine or causing a fire, especially if the boiler room is located in a wooden house.
Why do you need a boiler room design?
A boiler room in a private house provides certain building codes design. You cannot make a project yourself; its development must be carried out by specialists who have permission for this type of activity.
Designers carry out thermal engineering calculations of the premises, select equipment to meet household needs, and make working drawings. All technical solutions and standards are described in an explanatory note. The results of the specialists’ work are submitted to the relevant organizations for approval.
At the design stage, the following criteria are taken into account:
- Energy carrier type: selected according to site conditions. In one place you can use gas, but in another place you can use only wood. It is best to choose a combi boiler.
- Heating mode: the mode of residence of residents is taken into account - permanent or periodic. In the latter case, it is advisable to install software control heating system at the discretion of the owner.
- Location of the boiler room or boiler room, taking into account the volume of the boiler and the size of the room.
The furnace project must be submitted for approval to the gas service, attaching a package of additional documents to it:
- technical passport of boiler equipment;
- sanitary and hygienic conclusion;
- boiler operating instructions and certificate of compliance with technical requirements.
The approval process can last no more than three months. If the regulatory organization has no claims against project documentation, then it is certified with a seal and handed over to the customer. Only now can you begin installing a boiler room in a private house. If there are comments on the project, then it is returned for revision, followed by a repeat approval procedure.
Where can the boiler room be located?
The requirements largely depend on technical characteristics equipment. For example, there is no need to set up a separate room for electric boilers; such equipment can be built anywhere, as long as the design of the room does not deteriorate. As for other types of boilers, you need to equip separate rooms for them or adapt a room inside the house:
- separate boiler room;
- in the attic;
- in a small-sized autonomous module;
- a boiler room in the basement of a private house is very common;
- in the house itself, if you pre-equip the room;
- in the annex.
So, if there is not enough space for new buildings, a furnace room can be installed right in the house, not forgetting about the rules for installing a boiler in the living room. However, it is better to place the equipment in the basement or attic. Ideal option will become an extension or a separate building.
Gas heating is the most economical, so next we will consider the requirements for a gas boiler room in a private house.
What size space is needed for a boiler room in a house?
Gas is a rather explosive type of fuel, so the equipment of the room for a gas boiler must be in accordance with a number of requirements and rules of SNiP. With a boiler power of no more than 30 kilowatts, it is not necessary to equip a separate room; it can be installed in the kitchen. However, the minimum area of the boiler room, that is, the kitchen, should not be less than 15 square meters. m.
Heating equipment can be placed in the kitchen only if the following requirements are met:
- walls must be finished with fire-resistant materials;
- the area of the room must be at least 15 square meters;
- ceilings with a height of at least 2.5 meters;
- Closer to the floor, you need to equip an opening for air intake to ensure its constant circulation;
- it is necessary to install a ventilation system;
- Windows with vents are required;
- The window area is also regulated by the requirements: for every cubic meter of the kitchen there must be 30 centimeters of square glazing, that is, a window in a boiler room with an area of 15 square meters must have an area of at least 1.5 square meters. m.
Thus, the larger the volume of the boiler, the larger the combustion area should be.
Requirements for a furnace room in a separate room
If you want to equip a boiler room separately in an extension or basement, then you must meet not only the basic requirements, but also a number of additional ones:
- fire resistance of walls separating rooms;
- daylight;
- ventilation system with air replacement frequency 3 times/hour;
- separate exit to the outside;
- providing convenient access to boiler maintenance;
- the volume of the room is at least 15 cubic meters.
It is also necessary to comply with the basic SNiP standards if you install the equipment in a separate standing boiler room:
- The foundation of a separate building should not be in contact with the foundation of a residential building.
- The walls and roof must be finished only with fire-resistant materials.
- When constructing a building, sand mortar must be used.
- For the boiler you need to build a separate foundation 15-20 cm from the floor.
- It is necessary to install a sewer system so that, if necessary, the coolant can be drained from the system.
A pleasant bonus of this placement is that you will not hear the noise of the gas heating device during its operation.
How to arrange ventilation?
For the boiler to work with maximum efficiency, it is necessary to ensure constant access to the premises fresh air, facilitating the removal of fuel combustion products. As a rule, natural ventilation is sufficient for this, but if the room is heavily sealed, then it is necessary to create artificial ventilation, otherwise combustion products will settle inside the rooms and may cause a fire.
- Natural ventilation. If the power of the heating unit does not exceed 30 kilowatts, then in order to ensure natural circulation air, just drill a hole in the wall with a diameter of 10-15 cm and install it in it plastic pipe of the appropriate size with a grid or mesh. A backdraft valve must be installed inside the pipe so that air can escape from the room.
The ventilation hood is equipped in a similar way, protecting the outlet from atmospheric precipitation. And the supply opening should be located below, next to the heating device - so the flow of fresh air will flow directly into the combustion chamber. And since fuel combustion products rise to the top, an exhaust hood should be placed above the unit.
- Forced ventilation. When it is not possible to provide natural ventilation or it is not enough, based on the power of the boiler, then you can resort to artificial air circulation. The main elements - fans must be selected taking into account the power of the heating device, adding another 30%.
Do not neglect the provision of high-quality ventilation, otherwise, in the absence of fresh air, the equipment may explode!
Requirements for chimney installation
The chimney is another important part when arranging a boiler room for a private home. And this equipment is also advanced certain requirements, and if they are not followed, the operation of the boiler will be seriously impaired and the consequences can be very dire.
So, here are the main requirements for installing a chimney according to SNiP:
- The chimney pipe must be exactly the same diameter as recommended in the heating boiler data sheet.
- The number of turns and bends of the pipe is strictly limited - no more than three.
- The height of the chimney is also limited - above the roof, but not more than 5 m.
- In this case, the cut of the chimney pipe should not be located below the level of the roof itself, otherwise air will be sucked through it, which can lead to smoke.
- The pipe must be made exclusively of metal, cylindrical with special holes for convenient periodic cleaning.
- It is strictly forbidden to install a protective umbrella or other similar structures at the top of the chimney.
- The cross-section of the pipe must also fully comply with the requirements of the specific heating boiler model.
- The pipeline must be gas-tight, otherwise the products of fuel combustion will not be discharged outside, but will flow back into the boiler room.
- It is necessary to make two holes in the wall of the boiler room: one for the chimney, and the other, located slightly lower, for convenient maintenance of the unit.
These rules are specified in the regulatory documentation of SNiP, taking into account the innovations of 2008.
Features of equipment installation
Gas fuel boilers can be of two types: wall-mounted and floor-mounted.
Installation of the wall-mounted device is carried out at a room temperature of no lower than +5 and no higher than +35 degrees, while the air humidity in the room should not exceed 80%.
- First of all, it is necessary to decorate the walls of the room with heat-resistant building materials layer or thickness of at least 2 mm.
- Since ventilation in the boiler room of a private house is one of essential elements, That next step is to make a ventilation hole in the wall at a height of 30 cm, into which a pipe with a diameter of 15 cm is inserted and an exhaust hole above the equipment, also with a pipe facing the street.
- Then you can proceed directly to the installation of equipment. To do this, holes are made in the wall at a height of at least 80 cm from the floor, and parallel to it. You can check whether the brackets are installed at the same level using a building level.
- After this, you need to hang the wall-mounted boiler on the brackets and secure it.
- Next, an air valve and an expansion tank are mounted at the highest point of the system.
- To prevent the heat exchanger from clogging, it is necessary to install an angled corner on the pipe that supplies the coolant. strainer, on both sides of which, like on branch pipes, ball valves are placed. This measure will allow you to change filters in the future without draining the water from the system.
- Then the heating equipment is connected to the chimney.
- After this, you can begin to connect the pipes with the pipes coming out of the boiler, removing the plugs installed by the manufacturer. The water supply pipe is connected to the upper branch pipe, and the dispensing pipe is connected to the lower one. The best way to do this is by gas welding. In this case, the pipe clone must be at least 5 mm per meter of pipeline.
- The final stage is piping, that is, connecting the boiler to the gas, electricity, and hydraulic systems.
Before installing heating equipment, it is necessary to install the following elements into the system:
- valve/gas tap;
- counter;
- gas alarm;
- thermal shut-off valve.
Wherein electric meter must be equipped with an automatic circuit breaker (RCD) that will prevent overheating or shorting out the wiring.
Before the first start, the boiler must be filled with water and checked for leaks by disconnecting the boiler from the network and opening the built-in valve, which is located at the bottom of the product.
Floor-standing boilers are much more powerful and, accordingly, larger in size than wall-mounted ones, so they are usually placed on the floor in a separate room. The installation process for floor-standing equipment is the same as for wall-mounted equipment, but there are several important nuances:
- For boiler of this type the floor surface must be flat and durable so that the load on the legs of the product is distributed as evenly as possible. It is better to install the equipment on a small pedestal made of cement-sand screed.
- After fixing the boiler, it must be connected to the chimney, as well as to the heating system of the house, installing a filter to protect against blockages.
- When connecting equipment to the water supply system, the tap into the water supply system should be placed as close as possible to the pipe entrance to the house. This measure will ensure high pressure water in the system and its uninterrupted supply.
- Finally, the heating equipment is connected and checked.
Thus, you can install heating equipment with your own hands in a boiler room designed in accordance with the norms and requirements of SNiP and other regulatory bodies, thanks to which the heating system will operate efficiently and safely. Remember that failure to comply with at least one requirement can bring very unpleasant consequences.
A boiler room in a private house with your own hands is possible. But such work should be done strictly in stages. First, you need to decide on the location of the boiler room. It can be free-standing, located inside the house or under the roof in the attic.
Boilers come in several types, depending on the fuel it runs on.
- it is necessary to hide the electrical wiring;
- lighting must be sealed;
- good ventilation.
- Electric boilers will not allow you to save on electricity. But the equipment does not take up much space and is safe compared to other types of devices.
Choosing a radiator is also easy. Radiators differ in the material from which they are made. They can be:
- steel;
- cast iron;
- bimetallic;
- aluminum.
Cast iron, for example, retains heat for a long time, but also takes a long time to heat up. Steel radiators Suitable for use with antifreeze. You can adjust its heating temperature. But, naturally, this type of radiator is susceptible to corrosion. Aluminum ones are demanding on the water that circulates in them. The advantages of using them are affordability and good heat dissipation. Bimetallic devices are durable and resistant, but they are characterized by low heat transfer. Radiators are installed under the windows on brackets strictly horizontally. First, markings are made; it is necessary to maintain a distance to the floor of 7 to 15 cm.
Heating systems use pipes made of materials such as metal, copper and metal-plastic. Please note that it is difficult to install metal and copper pipes yourself; this requires special equipment.
The first step in building a boiler room for your private home will be to arrange a separate room for this purpose. This room should be 15 meters cubic and 2.5 meters high. It must be separated from the rooms in contact with it by a partition made of fire-resistant materials such as concrete, natural stone, porcelain stoneware or others.
When planning, you should consider the location of all devices to ensure easy and quick access. The floor must be covered with tiles.
A screed about 5-6 cm thick is made under the boiler. You will also need to take care of waterproofing to protect against temperature changes. It is best to paint the ceiling. Based on safety measures, this room requires a window, and the walls are insulated with heat-resistant materials. The boiler room must be equipped with an exhaust hood. For quality ventilation, some cut holes at the bottom of the door. Please note that air movement is necessary for stable operation boiler Pay attention to the installation of the chimney: the pipe that goes into the chimney should not be smaller than the outlet from the boiler. Do not forget to consider and ground all electrical equipment.
A boiler room in a room separate from the house must also meet the following requirements: the foundations of the boiler room and the house do not touch. The room cannot be constructed from flammable materials. Availability sewer pipe necessary to drain the coolant. Many home owners prefer this type of boiler room, because they do not need to allocate space for it, it is safer in case of problems.
Installing a heating system is a responsible and complex undertaking that requires certain skills and professionalism. The gas heating boiler system can be double-circuit or single-circuit. One circuit is a heating circuit, and to get hot water, a column or boiler is required. The boiler is selected according to the volume you require. So you will have to perform an accurate calculation of the heating system.
Heating system installation diagram
It is important! Installation gas equipment must only be carried out by an appropriate organization with permission and certain conditions premises!
- Mounting the boiler on a stand.
- Connection to the chimney.
- Installation of heating radiators.
- Installation of pipes, coolant drainage area.
- Installation of expansion tank and heat pump.
The first start of the system is carried out only in the presence of a specialist. Creating a boiler room in your home yourself is possible, but only if you have technical knowledge, engineering skills and golden hands. This work requires serious calculations and taking into account all safety measures. If you are not confident in your abilities, seek help from a specialized service for installing boiler rooms in private homes.
