Driving air heating homes

In most of Russia established a strong winter (not touched, perhaps, only Crimeans, Astrakhantsev and residents of the Krasnodar Territory), but because the article is about heating of an apartment house using the air system It is more relevant than ever!

We are all accustomed to heating with wood houses, gas, coal and electric heaters (about cheating them we wrote here). And now we turn our attention on-air heating system.

air heating - central air conditioning system, giving the warm room in the house and provides air between rooms.

There are four basic air heating components:

• heater - the most important part.
• fan - for air circulation;
• ducts - for the "transport" warm air;
• Optional equipment;

The most important element of the whole system - heater of one of two types:

• heaters (From the word calories, the heat is measured in them).
  The air is heated while passing through the warmed channels.
• Heat generators. Here the air is heated by combustion of fuel (in the course of going gas, coal, wood, sawdust, pressed block even waste oil).

The second element - fans - their main function - "withdrawal" of cold air and warm transportation. When choosing a look for the power, the principle of action (dutovy / exhaust) and performance (kubometrazh).

The ducts are divided into two types:

- intake (Cold air is fed to the heater);

- Backward (Heat transfer through the house air).

Here I will not open you the America :)

The fourth (optional) element of the system - optional - various air filters, steam humidifiers and ionizers.

domestic air heating system provides for the installation of air ducts under the raised floor, above the ceiling, as well as in ceilings and walls.
