How to make a heating bath
Russian bath - it's not just a good tradition, but also a good method to strengthen and harden your body. Steam treatments restore power, soothe the nervous system, as well as give a great feeling of cheerfulness. Starorusy even know about the great benefits of various bath procedures. Anyone who tried to take a steam bath once - do not find a replacement this type of recreation. Steam weathered fatigue, heals the body from disease restores the body, and also dissolves excess weight. Hair and skin after bath procedures acquire a fresh look.
Steam accepted not only in Russia, all the other nations also have this tradition. Once they are called by different names: the term, sauna, hammam. In recent years, the popularity of saunas has increased greatly, and bath treatments have become a mandatory element of the fashionable spa therapy.
It has long been the furnace was the true heart of the bath. But to date, modern heat in doubles, as a rule, is already on other ways - often the most unimaginable. So, if Bath are usually used cyclically, it makes no sense at all to organize in a very bath complex heating - will be enough to establish a conventional oven, and stock up on good well fuel. However, if the bath is used very often, and not only for its main purpose (when it is often blurred when the house does not have a bath and, if so-called house-bath), then only one oven to heat it all day will not work - very expensive. However, all the questions, of course, have the right solution - and modern baths who just nothing heats addition - and radiators, floor heating, and by means of a heating and special boilers automation. In this we are all just try to understand.
It is said that according to most bath attendants, the most amazing and the most suitable option - not oven for heating the sauna room and large aggregates of various kinds - is hinged boiler and a gas trumpet. But this system is not suitable for every guy - very much also depends on the material from which built the wall, and from its total area.
Heating bath with heated floors
To date, the baths became very fashionable to do special warm floors - as an auxiliary heat source. Pleasure is, of course, is not cheap, however for those guys use all year round, this is a pretty good option. For periodic application it does not fit - pipes certainly tolerate frost is normal, but a concrete solution - very bad.
Underfloor heating - infrared or water - bath is most often in the rest room, steam room and pomyvochnaya. If the coolant is warm wood, the electricity it will leave about 45 watts to two separate circulation pump. To make such a floor is not difficult - it is necessary in advance to choose the right size of pipes, calculate the power of the pump and the resistance circuits. But now fashionable infrared heats the floor well and other items - are his greatest advantage.
A few very important points about the special water underfloor heating in the bath:
- Always made two full separate circuits - one in the steam room and washing, the second - in the recreation room. All circuits - with cranes, so that when the needs of the temperature can be adjusted. Heat these floors can be a conventional gas boiler, it will be activated only half, or wood, if there was established a special pump on the three speed levels.
- The length of pipe loops must always do the same - it was not necessary then to put specific controls in each of the lashes. If it turns out that the warm floor is not sufficient, it is possible to put a more powerful circulation pump or a heat exchanger.
- Need and security system - the second circuit and the auxiliary porch on the bath in order to melt the snow in the winter, and in summer - to display all the excessive heat.
- A container with hot water for complete underfloor connected to the boiler best copper pipes (diameter - 22 mm) - they are very smooth and help to increase the system water circulation rate.
Some bathhouse in the floor instead of the usual water poured antifreeze - it is far less afraid of the frost.
Electric floor heating is perfect for relaxation rooms - according to statistics was his bathhouse often choose.
Radiant floor heating in the bath is cheap, non-toxic and very easy to operate. However, it is used in combination with other types of heating. It can be as radiator heating, and an electric or air. How did he look like? Between the base and the actual floor covering made from the distributing pipe where circulates the warm water (or antifreeze, or ethylene glycol, or the same antifreeze). And in order to heat the bottom not passed, all the pipework is initially placed on the thermal insulation material - polystyrene with aluminum foil or a mineral mats. Thus the heat flux is extremely well heats up and steam room. And, although only one floor provide a complete heating bath is almost impossible, even small - floors can be heated to 35 degrees, which is a good addition to the main heating system, as well as its savings.
How can I mount a normal heating in the bath using convectors?
Heat bath also convectors - electrical and gas. It is much easier than to equip a heated floor, however, and expensive, of course. Many do so: during the bath treatment using a furnace or electric heater, and all the remaining time left convectors the so-called antirazmorazhivayuschem mode, which will maintain the temperature at about 10 degrees heat. In this case, pay for electricity accounts for not quite a lot.
In such a system, it is only important to adhere to safety: for all convector must go all the way separate wiring from the panel, the cable itself must be properly insulated and placed in non-combustible channel.
heating main
Installation of the boiler bath - it is always the specific trouble. In good, the project needs - and fully approved project, and this is the bureaucracy. True, even without enough variety of challenges: cost, you must correctly install, require different security measures. Therefore, some bathhouse all hands mandatory heat pipeline from the house. However, there are some special secrets that you should definitely know about.
First of all, there is some assurance that in place of the pipe arrangement at certain times of the year will not accumulate water. Secondly, it is imperative to warm heating main - it is also certain costs. Third, if the heating bath is necessary to spend winter time in the trenches, in such a case, all the pipes need to be put in a one-piece tube is quite a large diameter - just so you can isolate these communications from multiple groundwater water. But to manage heat in the steam room can be a conventional remote control - and this is a great comfort.
It is true no matter what alternative option would have no heating has been selected - the main thing to calculate everything in advance, and it is desirable to invite an expert: a trained eye in this case definitely does not hurt.
