In the modern world, there are practically no problems with heating during the construction of a private house. It all depends on the desire and financial capabilities of the owner, it is especially popular in real Russian houses to use a stove with a boiler for summer cottages as a heating device.
At present, there is electricity in any, even the most remote rural settlement, and a gas pipeline has been installed in many settlements. But to this day, the cheapest and most reliable for private houses is a private house. In the old days, the Russian stove was a mother, they sang songs about her and composed jokes, told fairy tales, she was a nurse. Without it, it was simply impossible to survive during the cold and fierce winter in Russia.
The stove-makers were especially revered in Rus'. A good, competent stove-maker was in great demand, because only very skilled and experienced craftsmen could put together a high-quality and correct stove. The poor design of the stove was a disaster for the owner, it smoked, gave little heat, and it was not far from the fire, besides, everything around was covered with soot from such a device. In small huts, as a rule, there was only one stove, which was its decoration.
It is worth noting that in a large building it will not be able to heat all the premises, therefore, for mansions with a large area, a stove with a water heating boiler is suitable.
The classic stove in the village is laid out of brick and has the following components: grate, chimney, ash chamber and firebox. This is the basis of the design of the furnace, and the dimensions and capabilities depended on the wishes of the owner and the skill of the stove-maker.
Classic Russian stove
Nowadays, the Russian stove has become a fashionable attribute in antique mansions. It is worth noting that here it serves not for heating and heating residents, but rather as a decorative and decorating element in the interior of the house.
- The advantage of a stove with a water heating boiler is that it heats evenly the entire space in the room;
- It is necessary to drown twice a day, as the heat is stored for a long time. This allows you to significantly save on fuel.
- The availability and relative cheapness of fuel are also an undeniable advantage among other types of heating. This is due to the use of firewood and coal as fuel, and not gas and electricity, which have recently been constantly increasing in cost.
- The efficiency of the combined system is 85%, while that of a simple furnace is 50%.
- This oven is autonomous, and this advantage allows it to be used even in places where there is no power supply.
Autonomy of furnace water heating
The disadvantage of the stove is the preparation of firewood or, which must be brought early in the morning, because the rooms cool down during the night, melt the firebox and keep the fire constantly adding fuel, regularly clean the ash pan, otherwise the fire will not burn, follow the chimney.
Fire Safety Rules
It is imperative to follow the fire safety rules - during the construction of the furnace structure there should be no cracks in the masonry. When removing the pipe, so that it does not get very hot during the furnace and does not come into contact with the wooden floor.
Home-made stoves for water heating at home are especially dangerous when all requirements are not met. Previously, entire villages burned out in Rus', because of old stoves in wooden houses.
Design features
The most important component of a water heating system is the boiler. Design features differ in the material of manufacture, shape and size.
- Manufacturing material.
From the material from which the heating boiler is made, its service life depends. Most often they are made of sheet iron, which has a certain heat resistance. Home-made boilers, which are made by "craftsmen" in order to save money, burn out very quickly. To replace it with a new device, you need to disassemble almost the entire structure.
- Boiler size.
The optimal size for the boiler is 75 * 50 * 30 centimeters. The power in the boiler is enough to heat a mansion of two hundred square meters. To increase the productivity of the boiler by 1.5 times, the method of water in the heating system using a special electric pump is used.
- Boiler body.
Most often, boiler bodies are U - shaped. To increase productivity, the boiler is fixed in the central zone of the combustion chamber. This ensures uniform and rapid heating of the water and normal circulation in the system. In the space between the boiler and the walls of the furnace there should be a small gap of five millimeters, so when heated, the walls of the device expand and increase.
Functionality and purpose
Furnaces according to functionality and purpose are divided into:
- Heating, cooking, heating, combined with cooking, as well as Russian multifunctional stoves.
- By type of fuel used - wood, coal, combined combustible substance.
- In shape - round, square, rectangular, triangular and other types.
- By type of chimney - horizontal, vertical, sequential and combined.
- According to the burning time of the fuel - long, protracted and short-term.
Putting together a good oven with your own hands is a very time-consuming and troublesome business.
It is best to entrust the laying of the furnace to an experienced stove-maker:

- Most often, a stove for water heating is laid out in the kitchen. If it is not very large, then right on a solid floor, if the oven is large, then a special foundation is made under it.
- They lay out the stove from a simple red brick, the firebox is made of refractory bricks, the solution must also be refractory. This is necessary in order to avoid burning and destruction of the walls of the stove.
- built directly into the furnace structure.
- Particular attention is paid to the bonding of seams for the tightness of the structure.
- If the stove serves not only for heating, but also for cooking, then a special stove is installed above the firebox.
Despite the wide variety of different heating devices and designs, a brick oven with a heating boiler occupies a worthy place. It is indispensable where there is no electricity and gas, and modern heating appliances are not cheap. Half of Russia uses this type of heating, especially in the outback of our vast and beautiful country.
