Small cast iron stove. Small oven

IN Lately oven in garden house– this is no longer “news”. Amateur gardeners are increasingly building them on their estates and dachas. At the same time, the main requirement for such stoves is compactness, which is why the baby stove has become the most popular. Well, besides this, the little stove heats, “cooks” food, and bakes, and is also easy to build! You can build it yourself:

Design of a small oven

The Malyutka cooking and heating stove has a height of 1.9 meters, a width of 0.75 meters, and a depth of 0.63 meters. Its heat output is 1700 kcal/hour! Occupies only 0.47 sq.m. Furnace volume – 0.90 cubic meters. It has a stove with one burner, an oven-cabinet and an extractor hood. Also, it is equipped with a kindling stroke, used for lighting the stove after a long period of inactivity + for cooking food in summer time(when heating the house is not needed). Through this passage, the heat goes straight into the pipe, without warming up the stove.

This stove also has an oven. It has 2 modes: 1 – when hot gases “approach” it, having previously passed through the revolutions (passes) in the furnace body itself, 2 – when the gases pass to it, passing through the ignition passage, here the temperature of the gases is higher.

Materials for building a stove

Furnace foundation

This little stove is built with a foundation! It should be deepened by 50-70cm, and its upper part should be equal to the level of the finished floor. A simpler and more inexpensive foundation is considered to be a rubble-concrete foundation. They do it like this:

First, a foundation pit of 80x65 cm is prepared, and formwork from boards is inserted into it. The inside of the formwork is covered with roofing felt or plywood so that the concrete solution does not ooze through the cracks. Next, layers of broken bricks and rubble stone are laid, and all this is poured cement mortar. The solution is prepared in proportions 1k3, 1k4. Several layers of roofing felt are laid between the stove and the foundation for waterproofing.

Masonry stove baby

According to this project, a small country stove is installed using a clay-sand mortar. It is prepared in the following proportion: two parts sand to one part clay. Before preparing the solution, the clay must be soaked and the sand must be sifted. We lay the mortar between the bricks in a certain layer - 5-6mm thick. We carry out the masonry with a ligation of ½ brick, or ¼ brick is possible. We check all corners with plumb lines that extend from the nails driven into the ceiling.

Every six rows of masonry, inner side the oven is wiped down with a wet rag!

After the pipe, an opening is made in the ceiling with a fireproof cut in mind. Between the pipe and wooden floors there must be a distance of at least 250mm. Also, do not forget to protect the wall behind the stove if it is wooden. It can be covered with burlap, a 2 cm layer soaked in a clay solution, and a sheet of iron on top. We nail a sheet of iron to the floor in front of the stove to protect against fire.

Rows 1-28 – masonry.

Furnace niche stand (3x3 pipe and 2 plates).

Steam exhaust hood (made of steel 110x930x1).

Furnace niche frame. We connect the parts by welding, screws or rivets. We secure the frame to the stove wall with wire, which is laid between the rows of masonry bricks.

Oven/oven. The floor slab is made from a two-burner stove, cut into halves. We close the hole of the burner, which is used for hood, with a valve. We rivet it to the smooth side of the slab itself.

As practice has shown, for a room with a volume of 30 cubic meters. with a double floor, insulated walls and double window frames heated to temperatures of +20°C (with an external temperature of -20°C), you need to burn up to 12 kg of dry firewood in a small stove. And already in next days with a 2-time fire, it is necessary to burn about 5 kg of wood.

About quality brick oven every owner's dream country houses. But the fact is that the design of most models is quite complex, and it is extremely difficult to build them without having skills in the stove business. But there are also options (for example, a small oven) that require a minimum of time and the manufacture of which does not require specialized knowledge and skills. So, today we will tell you how to build a baby oven with your own hands.

Design features

Square future design is 40 cm2 Brick will be used in production, laying will be done flat or “on edge”. Despite its small dimensions, the tiny oven will effectively hold and release thermal energy. What is characteristic is that the foundation is in in this case There is no need to build it at all, since the weight of the device will be insignificant. All you need is a floor made of thick boards, securely fixed with joists.

Note! The design described in the article can easily replace a traditional potbelly stove, but its functionality will be many times higher.

The baby can also have cooking function(in the presence of cast iron stove) or heating (there must be a chimney pipe). Moreover, such a stove can be used as a fireplace, since it also has a smoke tooth.

You should also pay attention to the high speed of laying: for example, if you start construction works in the morning, then by the evening, most likely, you will already be busy performing test heating. At first, it is recommended to use paper and wood chips for kindling, since due to the strong temperature difference in the freshly hardened masonry mortar Cracks may form, which, in turn, can lead not only to smoke, but also to additional air suction. In short, to load regular logs into the oven, you must first wait until the solution is completely dry (often this takes no more than seven days, although much depends on the climate and humidity in the room).

Main advantages of the design

Small dimensions ( total area– 40 cm2), because of which the design has gained enormous popularity among owners country houses.
The possibility of using exclusively red brick during the work process, if in the future ordinary firewood will be used as fuel (neither silicate nor ordinary brick is suitable, since it is susceptible to high temperatures).
In the case of the most primitive stove design, the work can be done with your own hands, using improvised means. Heating channels are not provided here, since their function will be performed by the fuel cap. Moreover, the baby can be installed in the wall, which will significantly save free space.
Thanks to the efficiency of the stove, you will not need to prepare large volumes of firewood for the winter.
There is no need for a foundation, because a DIY baby oven weighs little.
However, the device is capable of heating a room up to 25-35 square meters. In autumn or spring, when the temperature is above zero, you need to heat it only once a day, in winter - twice.

About the safe location of the structure

To check the corners of the structure during work, use plumb lines made using nails nailed to the ceiling. This way you will be able to determine as accurately as possible how to position the pipe. after that, proceed to create an opening in the ceiling. It is important that the fire cutting parameter be taken into account. If you follow this safety parameter, the distance between the chimney and the wooden components will be at least 250 millimeters. Otherwise - if for some reason this is impossible to do - create a partition using several layers of burlap (the thickness should be 10-20 millimeters). Pre-soak the burlap with a clay-based solution. Place metal sheets on top of the material.

Note! You should never, under any circumstances, ignore fire safety requirements! Before starting the oven for the first time, make sure that its operation will not lead to unauthorized ignition. If you doubt your abilities, it is better to entrust the work to experienced specialists.

For added safety, securely fasten a sheet of steel below, in front of the combustion chamber. According to many years of experience, a small stove can heat the temperature in a room with a volume of 30 cubic meters to 20 degrees (if the temperature outside is about minus twenty), using only 11-12 kilograms of dry wood. Of course, the fact that the ceilings in this building are double is taken into account, as well as window frames, and the walls are properly insulated. However, the results are truly impressive and they only apply to the first heating. In the future, to achieve a similar result, only 5 kilograms of the same fuel will be required.

Building a baby oven: a step-by-step guide

The procedure itself consists of two important stages– preparation and, in fact, construction. Let's take a closer look at each of the stages.

Stage one. Preparatory activities>

First you should prepare all the materials that will be used in construction. In reality, there are not as many of them as it might seem at first glance.

Step one. Consumables

Everything that is needed to build a small oven is indicated in the table below.

Table No. 1. Materials

№	*Name*	*Quantity*
	Red brick	60 units
	Gate valve	1 unit
	Fire brick	37 units
	Hob made of cast iron	1 unit
	Clay mortar	20 liters
	Fire door	1 unit
	Blower door	1 unit
	grate	1 unit

Step two. Necessary equipment

Table No. 2. Equipment

*Tool*	*Purpose (what will it be used for)*
Trowel	It will be used to level and apply the working solution. In addition, the seams will be trimmed using a trowel.
Iron meter (you can use a tape measure)	Everything is simple here - the tool is needed for measurements.
Hammer-pick	This tool is required for sifting and chopping bricks during work.
Rule (ruler made of wood with parallel planes, length – 150 centimeters, cross-section – 6x1.5 centimeters)	It is required to monitor straightness and levelness brickwork(you need to place a building level on the tool).
Level	With its help, as we just said, the masonry is checked.
Plumb line (string with weight)	Controls vertical angles and planes of brickwork

Now that everything you need is ready, you can start building a baby oven with your own hands.

How to make a waste oil stove

Previously, we talked about how to make your own oven that runs on used machine oil; in addition to this article, we advise you to read this information

Stage two. Order

First, do a little preparation work surface. The algorithm of necessary actions is given below.

Step 1. Where you plan to build the baby, lay insulating material dimensions 53x78 centimeters (such material can be, for example, PET film, glassine or roofing felt).

Step 2. A sand “pillow” 10 millimeters thick is poured on top of the prepared litter. The sand is well leveled.

Step 3. The first row of bricks is laid on top of the sand (dry, that is, without fastening), which includes 12 units. This row is leveled using a level to ensure maximum horizontalness.

Step 4. On top of the laid bricks thin layer a clay-based solution is applied, and only then the door for the blower is installed. It is important to wrap this door in advance with moistened asbestos cardboard (or, alternatively, asbestos cord). Then the door is secured and the laying out of the next row begins.

Step 5. The next row is laid out similarly to the first, still using red brick.

Step 6. But the third row is laid out using refractory bricks. A grate is laid on top of this row. It is important that this grate is located directly above the blower after the formation of the row is completed.

Step 7. When laying the fourth row, the bricks are laid “on edge”. A special stand is installed inside the chimney pipe, which will later serve us as internal partition. As for the rear wall of the structure, it is laid (without using mortar), but so that each brick from the previously laid row No. 4 protrudes slightly outward.

Step 8. Next, install the door for the combustion chamber. Before installation begins, it should be wrapped with a couple of turns of asbestos cord, but at the same time, which is very important, it is required that it can still be opened both from below and from above. The door is fastened with wire and fixed (only for a while) with a pair of bricks - one brick is behind it, the second on it, and the door itself is placed on top.

Step 9. After this, brick row No. 5 is laid out. Here the products are laid flat, as if along the perimeter of the previous row.

Step 10. The baby oven continues to be built with its own hands, now you should proceed to row No. 7. Here the bricks also lie flat (you should start with 3/4 in order to connect with the previous row). It is also important that the back part is a pair of bricks that are laid edgewise.

Step 11. The eighth row will close the fire door (it ends with a pair of bricks laid on top). For its laying, only beveled brick is used, and it is important that it hangs over the combustion chamber. This is explained by the fact that the flame in this case will move closer to the center of the burner (it is located on the hob) when the baby is used as a fireplace, that is, with the door open.

Step 12. The ninth row should be moved slightly back so that the door is supported in open position. Before you start laying bricks, a moistened asbestos cord is laid on the surface - in principle, it will ensure the tightness of the joints between the surfaces and cast iron stove. It is important that the slab is not laid directly on clay due to different thermal expansion rates for these materials (we are talking about cast iron and clay).

Step 13. When laying the tenth row, the construction of the chimney begins, which should, over time, seem to expand towards the rear. At the same time, the design of the small stove is also taken into account - the fact is that it will not allow the installation of a superstructure made of brick due to this very expansion. During its creation, the center of gravity of the entire furnace as a whole will be shifted. For this reason, a top pipe is already installed or, as an option, a top-type product made of light metal.

Step 15. After this, place in the formed quarter chimney- her in mandatory should be connected with light iron pipe. And if the pipe moves somewhat to the side, then you need to make an overlap made in the form of three rows of bricks.

Step 16. The knockout bricks are removed, the lower part of the chimney pipe is cleaned of moisture and dirt that penetrated inside during installation work.

Step 17. After this, the almost finished little stove is whitewashed.

Note! Experts advise adding blue and milk to the mixture that will be used for whitewashing. The fact is that otherwise the surface of the structure will turn yellow over time.

Step 18. At the end, the lower part of the heating device is edged by nailing the baseboard. Moreover, this simple step will allow you to prevent sand from spilling out from under the body.

As a conclusion. About the main functions

A little one can bake a stove with his own hands not only decorative function – this design quite suitable for more classical purposes. And the most striking proof of this is the fact that last years the popularity of this type of stove has grown several times, and it is increasingly used in suburban areas. But why the little one? Let's try to find out.

Often, country houses are small, which means heating device they should also be small. Despite its lightness and small size, the little one copes well with heating the premises, and at a high level.
As a rule, people live in dachas for a short time, but sometimes they stay there for a very long time. Of course they will need food. We have not eaten raw food for many centuries, therefore, for cooking we will need an oven and hob. And all this is provided for in the design of the tiny stove.
Finally, the third reason for the design’s significant popularity is its cost-effectiveness. We all know how difficult it is to acquire a large amount of firewood for summer cottage. Often only tree trimmings are available, as well as various Construction Materials that can be burned. For this reason Special attention focuses on fuel economy. And the little one is not too demanding on the volume of firewood.

That's all, now you know how to build a baby oven with your own hands. Actually, that's all, good luck in your work and, of course, have a warm winter!

To equip your home with quality heating structure It is not necessary to have specialized skills and knowledge. A simple and accessible option for every owner is a small stove, which requires a minimum of time and investment. In this article we will look at all the stages of constructing such a furnace with our own hands.

What is

A baby brick stove is a compact mini-fireplace that can be placed on small area only 0.4 sq. meters. It has the simplest possible design, in which the fuel cap replaces an entire system of heating channels standard for stoves. It does not need an additional foundation, and the total heating area can reach up to 35 square meters. meters.

Baby brick oven

A baby brick oven does not need a large amount of high-quality fuel. For its operation, the most common firewood, anthracite, coal or other materials are sufficient. It can easily replace a potbelly stove for a summer residence and at the same time be much more functional. If you add a cast iron stove to the main structure, you get not just a heating stove, but also a cooking stove.

But the main advantage of this design can be considered the high speed of laying. One day is enough for detailed designs. This time is enough to build and start heating the stove with paper and wood chips. True, it will be possible to throw in logs no earlier than the masonry mortar has completely dried, otherwise there is a risk of cracks appearing.

What materials are needed

To build a brick stove with your own hands for heating a country house or other premises, you need to stock up on this set of materials and tools.

Red stove brick - it is durable and easy to cut with a grinder; it will be used as a base, but is not suitable as a facing material. You will need 60 pcs.
Fireclay brick is fire-resistant and the only type of brick required for masonry in the firebox, as it will be exposed to direct fire. Quantity -37 pcs.
Clay mortar - will be used to hold the masonry together. 20 l.
Blower door.
The door for the firebox can be either metal or glass.
Grate - will support a layer of solid fuel.
Cast iron burner stove.
One metal bolt.

Heating and cooking stove-baby

Tools

Trowel. For applying the solution. It can also be used to remove excess.
Hammer - pickaxe. For cutting bricks.
Level. To control the horizontal lines of the masonry.
Rule. A level is placed on it.
Plumb. It is used to monitor verticals.
Roulette. Can be replaced with an iron meter for measurements.

How to build it yourself

The baby oven is built with your own hands in stages. First you need to decide on the location of the furnace and begin forming the foundation. To do this, a bedding is laid on the selected place; it can be polyethylene or another oilcloth base. It is necessary to pour a centimeter layer of ordinary sand on it. Then you can start laying.

Order

1 row. Place 12 bricks on prepared sand; no fastening is required. The bricks are covered with a layer of mortar; immediately fasten the door for blowing in asbestos.

2nd row. Lay out on top of the first layer.

3rd row. Fireclay bricks are used. A grate is placed on top; it should subsequently be located above the ash pit.

4 row. The masonry is done with an edge, and a partition is left in the chimney. When laying the back wall, you do not need to use mortar; the bricks should protrude slightly outer side. You can begin installing the firebox door, previously wrapped in several layers of asbestos. You need to wrap it taking into account that the door should open freely.

5 row. This row must be laid flat along the contour of the previous one.

6th row. Edge laying. The chimney should be wiped with a wet rag.

7th row. Like the 5th row, it is laid flat; you need to start with a three-quarter row.

8 row. Two bricks are placed on top to close the door. For this row you will need a beveled brick; it will serve as a kind of canopy.

9 row. Must be offset to support the open state of the door. Moistened asbestos must first be laid.

10 row. The formation of the chimney begins with it. It lines up expanding backwards. Taking into account the design of the crumb stove, it must be remembered that the installation of a brick superstructure is impossible due to the shifted center of gravity of the entire stove.

11 row. We proceed to the installation of a valve sealed with asbestos, lubricated with clay.

The next step is to remove the knockout bricks and clear the bottom of the chimney of debris.

The little oven with your own hands is almost ready, all that remains is to do the whitewashing. To prevent the oven from turning yellow later, you need to add blue and milk to the mixture.

Advantages of this type of oven

The baby, which is essentially a mini-fireplace, occupies the minimum area for a heating stove - only 0.4 square meters. meters. She has simple design, which any beginner can assemble, and instead of a whole system of heating channels, it has a fuel cap.

Bake of this type does not require a powerful additional foundation, but can easily heat a room up to 35 square meters. meters. To achieve this effect, in the off-season it can be heated only once a day, and in the cold season - 2 times a day.

The Malyutka stove is economical and can use both firewood, anthracite, coal and other types of filling for its operation.

If the future Malyutka brick stove will be heated exclusively with wood, red brick can be used in its construction, however, only building and fire-resistant bricks are suitable for the construction of the firebox chamber and firebox.

Do-it-yourself Malyutka oven

Before starting the actual construction of the furnace, you should consider its location - it is excluded as adjacent to two external walls building, as well as its location in the center of the room - due to unreasonable heat loss and ineffective distribution of heated air.

The little one requires not a powerful, but a good additional foundation.. If there is a water heating or electric heating, the entire screed is lifted - if there are no screeds under the floor, use a grinder with diamond blade a rectangle of the floor is cut out around the perimeter of the future stove.

A hole is dug 350 mm deep, with the edges as level as possible. A sand cushion 70 mm high is poured into it, which, after filling with water, is left to dry for several days.

The reinforcement sheathing is created from twelve rods with 100-millimeter pitches, welded in two layers crosswise. Next, a lattice that is as identical to it as possible is created. Both of them are fastened with reinforcing bars at the joints - and welded along them.

In production concrete mortar only M300 cement can provide an optimally strong foundation for Malyutka. The poured foundation must be completed 50 mm before the floor level in order to avoid the formation of a layer of cold air at the bottom of the furnace in the future.

Formation of heating equipment

First of all, you need to decide on the place where the Malyutka stove will be installed, and also prepare an exact diagram with dimensions and order. General principles stoves are also suitable for a small hearth. Installation is carried out at a safe distance from the walls ( approximately 25 cm.), the stove should not be in a draft, and the chimney should not touch ceiling beams. Safety principles must be fully observed - walls, ceiling and floor are insulated with fire-resistant materials.

For construction we will need:

red kiln brick(full-bodied);
fireclay brick (for firebox);
clay or cement mortar M300;
reinforcing rod;
ash door;
grate;
fire door (if you choose a glass door, the baby can serve as a fireplace);
cast iron hob;
valve

Tools needed:

trowel (leveling the solution, cutting seams);
hammer and pick (for bricks);
level;
Master OK;
plumb line (weight with cord) for checking angles;
rule (a wooden ruler with a cross-section of 1.5 x 6 cm and a length of 1-1.5 m, having parallel planes) for evenness of the masonry;
roulette.

Foundation

A solid multifunctional stove will require a foundation; rubble concrete will be more economical. The pit must be at least 80x65 cm., formwork made of boards is installed in it, covered with plywood or roofing felt and filled with concrete. Next, broken bricks and rubble stone are laid out, everything is filled with cement (ratio 1 to 3). Last step– cover with insulation in several layers of roofing felt.

If the brick oven is planned to be light, without constant intensive combustion, then the first row of bricks should be laid on a layer of insulation:

polyethylene film;
roofing felt;
hydroisyl, glassine;
dry sand 1 cm.

Furnace order

First and second row - alignment, Each row will be checked by level.

The third is on the front the vent is laid out, its dimensions smaller sizes fireboxes twice.

Fourth - installation in the ash pit steel window, it overlaps from above grate.

Fifth - fixing the grate, circular masonry.

Sixth - the beginning firebox layouts. The window is slightly narrowed for convenience.

Seventh - installation firebox doors. The firebox must be firmly held in the masonry; for this purpose, the fastenings are wrapped asbestos cord.

Eighth - installed on top of the firebox sheet steel strip.

From the ninth to the eleventh - circular masonry.

Twelfth, thirteenth - formation of the back wall, it is laid on the dock, and two small grooves are formed.

Fourteenth - the grooves are increased by half a brick, the rest of the space is laid out with bricks.

Fifteenth – space for a canal, an oblong channel is left near the back and side walls. In the main masonry, a compartment is made with a supporting brick in the center (under the column).

Sixteenth - placed on a column steel strips, they form another channel.

Seventeenth - the channels are divided and form four channels under the walls and one in the center.

From eighteen to twenty-two - continuation of channels.

The twenty-third and twenty-fourth channels, except for the central one, connect and form an L-shape.

Twenty-fifth - channels, except for the central one, are covered with brick.

From twenty-sixth to twenty-eighth - the dimensions of the masonry are narrowed to the size of the pipe (chimney).

Twenty-ninth - damper installation.

From the thirtieth - chimney formation and taking him outside.

During the laying process, it is necessary to do dressings one second or one fourth of a brick. Every six rows the masonry must be wiped with a damp cloth. And in order for the corners to be even, it is better to install plumb lines on the ceiling (temporarily on nails). The brick must be installed during laying flat and on edge for structural stability.

Features of the “baby”

Already from the name of this model it is clear that its dimensions are more than just modest. For example, the base area is only 0.4 square meters. m. However, the ability of the “baby” to give off and retain heat is very impressive.

The structure is laid out from bricks, which are laid either flat or on an edge. Since its weight is light, there is no need to build a foundation for it. It can be erected directly on a floor made of thick boards fixed to joists.

Built with your own hands, such a stove will replace a potbelly stove. Moreover, the functionality of the “baby” is much more interesting and richer. For example, a hob is additionally installed on it, and if desired, it can be equipped with a fireplace portal, since it has a smoke tooth.

The stove is installed incredibly quickly. Moreover, if you start work in the morning, then in the evening it will be possible to carry out a test fire.

IMPORTANT! For a test fire, use only wood chips and paper to avoid sudden temperature changes that could cause cracks. And before the solution dries completely and is used to melt firewood, you need to wait about a week.

Row after row - and the “baby” is ready!

We offer a detailed diagram and order for the construction of a “baby” stove.

In the place where the “baby” will be built, lay a layer polyethylene film and roofing felt, covering it all with waterproofing or glassine (78x53 cm). Pour well-dried sand onto this bedding in a layer of about 1 cm. At this point preparatory work are completed and you can proceed directly to laying.

1st row laid directly on a sand substrate without fastening. For the base of the “baby” you will need 12 bricks, laid strictly level to ensure perfect horizontalness. A thin layer of clay mortar is applied to the top and a blower door wrapped in wet asbestos cardboard or cord is immediately installed. After securing this element, the 2nd row is laid out.

3rd row it is laid out not with ordinary, but with fireclay bricks. When the row is laid out, a grid of grates is installed on it above the blower.

In the 4th row bricks are placed on edge. It is important to place a stand inside the chimney, which will serve as an internal partition. In addition, the back part of the stove must be laid without fastening the bricks with mortar, and the building material should protrude slightly beyond the plane of the structure.

The next important step is the installation of the combustion door. It needs to be wrapped in several turns with asbestos cord. It is important that the door can be opened from both the bottom and the top. Then secure the element with wire and secure it temporarily with two bricks.

5th row laid out flat with bricks along the contour of the 4th.

6th row is already laid out with bricks, which are placed on the edge. When the row is completed, the chimney is wiped down with a damp cloth.

In the 7th the bricks are again laid flat, starting with three-quarters, except for the back wall, which consists of 2 bricks laid edge-on.

8th row closes the firebox door, and it is laid out with beveled bricks, which will slightly overhang the firebox. This design feature helps to shift the flame to the center of the hob burner when operating the stove simultaneously with the operation of a fireplace with an open firebox.

9th row slightly shifted back. This is required to keep the door open. Before starting a row, lay down an asbestos cord soaked in water. This will help seal the joints between the hob and the brickwork. If you install the stove directly on clay, this will be a serious mistake, since these materials (cast iron and clay) do not expand equally when the temperature rises.

10th row begins the construction of the chimney, which gradually expands backwards. Please note that such a pipe has a displaced center of gravity, so it is necessary to additionally mount a light iron nozzle pipe.

To the 11th row a valve is installed, which must be sealed with an asbestos cord. A chimney is installed in the quarter, which is connected to a lightweight metal pipe. When moving the pipe to the side, you need to make an overlap of three brick rows.

The final stage before whitewashing is cleaning the chimney of debris and removing excess moisture from there. To do this, remove the knockout bricks from the masonry.

This simple and budget-friendly stove may be of interest to those who need efficient, simple and uncomplicated heating in their country house or garage.

The author of this stove, V. Atamas, posted on the site, says that it took him only one day to build this miracle. A baby stove can successfully replace a metal potbelly stove or fireplace, or serve temporarily while another, more powerful stove is being built.

I installed such a miracle in the garage, all the neighbors come in winter to warm up, drink tea, and just enjoy the “live” heat of the stove. Despite its seemingly small size, it is quite versatile and can not only heat a room, but also allow you to cook food. Among other things, the stove can work as a fireplace, i.e. with the door open.

Taking into account the important point that it is placed on a layer of sand - after finishing the masonry, you should take out the lower rear brick and remove the remaining mortar from there, as well as remove the moisture present there. After this, put the brick in place and seal the seams with mortar.

After building the stove with your own hands, you should install the pre-furnace sheet, first bending the part that will be adjacent to the stove with the letter “G”. This will protect the sand on which the stove base is laid from spilling out. For the same purpose, it is necessary to surround the stove with a plinth. The stove can also be additionally whitened.

Materials

Kiln red brick….60 pcs.,
fireclay bricks……………37 pcs.,
clay solution……………20 l.,
blower door………..1 pc.,
combustion door……………….1 piece,
grate………1 pc.,
single burner stove…..1 piece,
valve…………………………1 pc.

Once the stove was built and a test fire was carried out, everything was opened and dried within a week.

Since the stove is quite light, about 360-370 kg, and is installed without a foundation, it does not require a brick pipe. The furnace must be connected to the existing main pipe using light steel pipes. If the pipe will go out to the side, for example into a wall and then onto the street, the top of the chimney should be covered with three rows of brickwork.

Design features

The area of the future structure is 40 square cm. Brick will be used in production, laying will be done flat or “on edge”. Despite its small dimensions, a small stove will effectively retain and release thermal energy. Typically, in this case there is no need to build a foundation at all, since the weight of the device will be insignificant. All you need is a floor made of thick boards, securely fixed with joists.

The baby can also have a cooking function (if there is a cast iron stove) or a heating function (there must be a chimney pipe). Moreover, such a stove can be used as a fireplace, since it also has a smoke tooth.

You should also pay attention to the high speed of masonry: for example, if you start construction work in the morning, then by the evening, most likely, you will already be doing test heating. At first, it is recommended to use paper and wood chips for kindling, since due to a strong temperature difference, cracks may form in the freshly hardened masonry mortar, which, in turn, can lead not only to smoke, but also to additional air suction. In short, to load regular logs into the oven, you must first wait until the solution is completely dry (often this takes no more than seven days, although much depends on the climate and humidity in the room).

Main advantages of the design

Small dimensions (total area - 40 square cm), because of which the design has gained immense popularity among owners of country houses.
The possibility of using exclusively red brick during the work process, if in the future ordinary firewood will be used as fuel (neither silicate nor ordinary brick is suitable, since it is susceptible to high temperatures).
In the case of the most primitive stove design, the work can be done with your own hands, using improvised means. Heating channels are not provided here, since their function will be performed by the fuel cap. Moreover, the baby can be installed in the wall, which will significantly save free space.
Thanks to the efficiency of the stove, you will not need to prepare large volumes of firewood for the winter.
There is no need for a foundation, because a DIY baby oven weighs little.
However, the device is capable of heating a room up to 25-35 square meters. In autumn or spring, when the temperature is above zero, you need to heat it only once a day, in winter - twice.

About the safe location of the structure

For added safety, securely fasten a sheet of steel below, in front of the combustion chamber. According to many years of experience, a small stove can heat the temperature in a room with a volume of 30 cubic meters to 20 degrees (if the temperature outside is about minus twenty), using only 11-12 kilograms of dry wood. Of course, the fact that the ceilings in this building are double, as well as the window frames, is also taken into account, and the walls are properly insulated. However, the results are truly impressive and they only apply to the first heating. In the future, to achieve a similar result, only 5 kilograms of the same fuel will be required.

Building a baby oven: a step-by-step guide

The procedure itself consists of two important stages - preparation and, in fact, construction. Let's take a closer look at each of the stages.

Stage one. Preparatory activities>

First you should prepare all the materials that will be used in construction. In reality, there are not as many of them as it might seem at first glance.

Step one. Consumables

Everything that is needed to build a small oven is indicated in the table below.

Table No. 1. Materials

№	*Name*	*Quantity*
	Red brick	60 units
	Gate valve	1 unit
	Fire brick	37 units
	Hob made of cast iron	1 unit
	Clay mortar	20 liters
	Fire door	1 unit
	Blower door	1 unit
	grate	1 unit

Step two. Necessary equipment

Table No. 2. Equipment

*Tool*	*Purpose (what will it be used for)*
Trowel	It will be used to level and apply the working solution. In addition, the seams will be trimmed using a trowel.
Iron meter (you can use a tape measure)	Everything is simple here - the tool is needed for measurements.
Hammer-pick	This tool is required for sifting and chopping bricks during work.
Rule (ruler made of wood with parallel planes, length - 150 centimeters, cross-section - 6x1.5 centimeters)	It is required to monitor the straightness and horizontality of the brickwork (a building level must be placed on the tool).
Level	With its help, as we just said, the masonry is checked.
Plumb line (string with weight)	Controls vertical angles and planes of masonry

Now that everything you need is ready, you can start building a baby oven with your own hands.

Stage two. Order

First, prepare the work surface a little. The algorithm of necessary actions is given below.

Step 1. Where you plan to build the baby, lay insulating material measuring 53x78 centimeters (such material could be, for example, PET film, glassine or roofing felt).

Step 2. A sand “pillow” 10 millimeters thick is poured on top of the prepared litter. The sand is well leveled.

Step 3. The first row of bricks is laid on top of the sand (dry, that is, without fastening), which includes 12 units. This row is leveled using a level to ensure maximum horizontalness.

Step 4. A thin layer of clay-based mortar is applied on top of the laid bricks, and only then the door for the blower is installed. It is important to wrap this door in advance with moistened asbestos cardboard (or, alternatively, asbestos cord). Then the door is secured and the laying out of the next row begins.

Step 5. The next row is laid out similarly to the first, still using red brick.

Step 7. When laying the fourth row, the bricks are laid “on edge”. A special stand is installed inside the chimney pipe, which will later serve as an internal partition. As for the rear wall of the structure, it is laid (without using mortar), but so that each brick from the previously laid row No. 4 protrudes slightly outward.

Step 9. After this, brick row No. 5 is laid out. Here the products are laid flat, as if along the perimeter of the previous row.

Step 12. The ninth row should be moved back a little so that the door is supported in the open position. Before you start laying bricks, a moistened asbestos cord is laid on the surface - in principle, it will ensure the tightness of the joints between the surfaces and the cast iron slab. It is important that the slab is not laid directly on clay due to different thermal expansion rates for these materials (we are talking about cast iron and clay).

Step 15. After this, a chimney pipe is placed in the formed quarter - it must be connected to a light iron pipe. And if the pipe moves somewhat to the side, then you need to make an overlap made in the form of three rows of bricks.

Step 16. The knockout bricks are removed, the lower part of the chimney pipe is cleaned of moisture and dirt that penetrated inside during installation work.

Step 17. After this, the almost finished little stove is whitewashed.

Step 18. At the end, the lower part of the heating device is edged by nailing the baseboard. Moreover, this simple step will allow you to prevent sand from spilling out from under the body.

As a conclusion. About the main functions

A DIY baby stove can perform not only a decorative function - this design is also quite suitable for more classical purposes. And the most striking proof of this is the fact that in recent years the popularity of this type of stove has grown several times, and it is increasingly used in suburban areas. But why the little one? Let's try to find out.

Often, country houses are small, which means that the heating device in them should also be small. Despite its lightness and small size, the little one copes well with heating the premises, and at a high level.
As a rule, people live in dachas for a short time, but sometimes they stay there for a very long time. Of course they will need food. We have not eaten raw food for many centuries, therefore, for cooking you will need an oven and a hob. And all this is provided for in the design of the tiny stove.
Finally, the third reason for the design’s significant popularity is its cost-effectiveness. We all know how difficult it is to acquire a large amount of firewood in a summer cottage. Often only tree trimmings are available, as well as various building materials that can be burned. For this reason, special attention is paid to fuel economy. And the little one is not too demanding on the volume of firewood.

That's all, now you know how to build a baby oven with your own hands. Actually, that's all, good luck in your work and, of course, have a warm winter!

The Malyutka heating and cooking stove, the order of which is published on this page, has become popular among summer residents precisely because of its compactness. After all, place it in a small country house, which can occupy an area of 4 square meters, not always possible.

And the Malyutka heating and cooking stove (the order of the masonry is in the diagram) allows you to install solid fuel heating even in a country house 4 by 6 meters, and does not eat up the lion’s share of the area.

Moreover, such small stoves as Malyutka allow you to seriously save wood, since for a small country house or village housing there is no need for a bulk brick kiln. A small firebox volume, of course, requires a small amount of firewood.

Yes, you will have to add firewood to a small stove more often than to a large stove, precisely because of the small volume of the firebox. But this firewood will burn in Malyutka’s firebox.

And one moment. It is much easier to preheat a small brick oven than a large one. This is very important for seasonal visits to a dacha in cold weather, when the owners come from the city only on weekends or holidays.

Characteristic features of the stove

Advantages of Malyutka stoves

The “crumb” stove has a number of advantages over other types of structures for heating a room. It is not surprising that many users install this type of fireplace in their homes. Advantages of building a “baby” stove with your own hands:

Small area. It is the owners of small country houses who most often choose a mini oven.
A simple construction scheme. Even a person with minimal builder skills can easily disassemble the drawings and independently lay the foundation and structure of the furnace.
Economical. The device does not require any preparation large quantity firewood for the winter, the consumption of materials for heating the stove is relatively small. In addition to wood, it is allowed to use other types of fuel, such as coal.
There is no need for a strong foundation.

Flaws

For this design, only a heat-resistant type of brick is needed.

However, in addition to the mass positive aspects, the “crumb” oven also has disadvantages:

Insufficient heating. The heating stove can fill a room of up to 35 square meters with heat.
Limited materials. Only suitable for bookmarking the device separate species bricks resistant to high temperatures.

Heating hob“baby” has its prototypes among other types of designs (and the Swedish one).

What materials are used?

The “baby” stove is made of a special type of bricks that are resistant to high temperatures. Characteristics of materials:

Fireclay brick. An indispensable item for laying the combustion surface of the stove.
Private. It is not suitable as a facing material, but most of the structure is laid out with this brick, so the consumption for it is maximum.
Facing. Suitable for finishing the front part of the fireplace, you can choose your own color.

To build, you will need to purchase a fire door.

For installation, you need to purchase the appropriate oven elements, without which the structure will not function fully. In addition to bricks, the work also includes (approximate list of basic auxiliary materials):

grate;
combustion door;
valve;
blower door;
burner stove (cast iron);
clay solution.

How to do it yourself?

Preparatory stage of construction

At the preparation stage, you need to have the following tools available:

welding machine;
roulette;
bayonet shovel;
grinder;
waterproofing;
rod;
water and sand;
solution.

After determining the location for the building, you need to lay the foundation for it.

The first thing to start with preparatory stage- determining the location of the future fireplace. It is important to position it correctly to avoid energy loss. The walls of the structure are not located near the outer walls of the room, but placing the fireplace in the center of the room is also not recommended. Not in all cases, a “baby” brick kiln is built simultaneously with the building. Sometimes you have to lay the foundation on already finished floors. If the house uses a “warm floor” system, you have to lift the entire screed. After the place for the stove has been prepared, a hole up to 35 cm deep is dug and completely covered with waterproofing. Next, the reinforcement is laid and the solution is poured.

Step-by-step instructions for carrying out work

Brick is the priority material for laying furnaces. A small or large “crumb” oven, although it has simple drawings buildings, but detailed diagram the order of work will be useful in any case. Step-by-step instruction:

Before starting the ordering, the foundation is waterproofed with roofing felt.

A layer of waterproofing is applied to the foundation. It is recommended to use roofing felt.
The order starts from the corners, three rows for each.
The verticality and horizontality of the plumb line are measured.
The laying of the first row (solid layer) must be perfectly accurate.
A thin layer of clay is applied to a row of bricks and three rows are placed around the perimeter. At the same time, the door is installed. Everything is done quickly and accurately.
A steel wire is inserted into the fastening area, the ends of which are twisted and wound in order.
Visible defects are eliminated using an angle grinder.
Grate bars are installed.
The next series involves the use of fireclay fire bricks and the installation of a firebox door wrapped in asbestos cord.
All subsequent rows are laid flat. The ordering is completed with the expectation that there is room for a slight backward shift.
It's already covered installed door and the stove is installed. It is recommended to buy a cast iron version for cooking.
The last stage is finishing external walls ovens. It is used most often in such cases of whitewashing. Before starting work, it is recommended to protect all walls in the house from dirt, since removing stains from whitewash is problematic.

In order for the device to ultimately turn out exactly the way the user imagines it, you need to take time to study the instructions.
