There can be several options for the heating system of the country house: one -pipe gravitational and with a forced supply of coolant, two -pipe gravitational and with forced supply of coolant. As a modification of a two -pipe, you can represent a radiation system with the contours of warm floors. The heating of the country house with films of infrared heating costs.
The gravitational system is one of the oldest, widespread even until recently. Water circulation in such systems is provided by the boiler itself, by heating it. Such water heating of the country house is quite reliable, does not depend on electricity, but not very comfortable in operation. Especially the disadvantages are noticeable in two -story houses. In them, hot water, rising to the second floor, descends downwardly cooled down. As a result, radiators on the ground floor remain barely warm. But with heating a one -story house up to 100 kV. m such a system copes perfectly.
The forced ventilation system is a more progressive steam heating of a country house. Here it is possible to adjust the temperature around the rooms, the use of automated boilers. This system is more expensive in material terms, but more convenient. Here, in addition to pipes, boiler and expansion tanks, there is a circulation pump. It makes water move through pipes at a given speed. Therefore, you should responsibly approach the choice of such a device.
Heating systems «warm floor» also require careful selection and balancing of pumps. Here it requires greater power compared to radiator heating.
The costs of heating a private house in winter are quite significant for any heating option. No matter how the owners try, it is unlikely to be able to reduce them by more than 10-20%. So don’t worry if your house is far from gas highways. Solid fuel boilers of long burning is an effective and simple solution to such a problem. Solid fuel at times cost cheaper than other energy sources.
If your house is connected to a centralized gas heating, to obtain hot water the best option will be to purchase a boiler. Boilers — heating devices heating water for household purposes. They are divided into accumulative and flowing in the method of obtaining hot water, into direct and indirect — by the method of heat transfer, on wall and floor — at the place of location. There are also boilers with combined properties. According to the energy source, boilers are divided into gas, electric, indirect heating, as well as indirect heating with the heater. The main drawback of such a device is large weight and volume.
