Modern technologies and materials allow to install two different heating services in houses. Everyone has the design features. The one-pipe system of heating began to be used long ago. With success apply and now, but in advanced look.
Features of one-pipe system of heating
One-pipe heating has appeared at the time of the Soviet Union when high blocks were built rapidly. Reform has affected many stages of construction. Also the decision to simplify heating system took place. Houses in which apartments were heated by one pipe connected to registers and special boiler have begun to be put in operation.
The one-pipe system of heating or "Leningradka" represents vicious circle which basic elements - heating boiler and heating pipes with the connected registers. For more esthetic look, pipes usually had at the floor.
The principle of the giving and return pipe in system is absent. The movement of the heat carrier goes on annular wheel. The registers located consistently are supplied with special valves. Warm water, passing through devices, returns to the heatgenerator - special boiler. Leningrad this system is called because has been for the first time used in this city.
Types of mounting of the resident of Leningrad
Now there are vertical and horizontal options. The first scheme is applied to multi-storey owner-occupied dwellings. As a rule, mounting is carried out by distributing of pipes above, they are laid to thicket on the attic. Hot water goes down on vertical struts and is distributed on heating coils. Registers are located on floors strictly the friend under the friend. In the place of joining of strut and the pipeline temperature will always be identical. In process of passing of the heat carrier on radiators temperature changes. The further there is radiator from heating source, the it is colder. At the second option of distributing, pipes from boiler carry out horizontally. Connection of radiators is carried out to its lower part. The heating boiler in this case is placed in the apartment. Latest models of these devices are attractive externally, compact, and therefore can be in any room. To increase efficiency of functioning of system often apply the combined scheme. For example, on upper floor the first option of the resident of Leningrad is laid, and on the first floor the horizontal one-pipe system is arranged. Special valves thermostats, accelerating cursors are applied to uniform pressure distribution of warm water on pipes. The modernized heating one-pipe system option more often is used at construction of owner-occupied one-storey country houses. The main advantages of the resident of Leningrad - simplicity of mounting and low costs of purchase of all elements.
