Many owners of personal plots and private farmsteads have already got bath or dream of it. Both those, and others understand that the bath begins with the furnace, and here is how to make its right choice and what - iron or brick - is better, not all know.
Whatever was the good felling for bath, kind of she looked good in respect of design, the furnace plays a major role in its quality. Depends on the furnace, the room as fuels will be spent for heating of water and air many whether there will be couple in steam room enough will be how good to get warm, whether also even how long it, the bath, will serve will be safe to be in bath.
How to choose the furnace for bath
As a rule, in baths install either the brick, or iron furnace. Both those, and others have similar design – fire chamber and so-called ashpit, the tank for water heating, exhaust pipe and Kamenka. But the principle of work and life cycle of the bathing furnace depend on material of which it is manufactured.
Most often owners of baths give preference to the furnace from iron first of all it costs much cheaper and it is much easier to install it. Its huge advantage also that its design such is that will get poisoned with carbon monoxide is almost impossible burning products at once leave outside and to the room do not get. Metal gets warm much quicker than stone or brick, the bath nataplivatsya at short notice, but the metal furnace also cools down quicker, than the brick furnace and term of its service are less.
The furnace for brick bath will be more expensive its metal analog, however it will serve longer. In respect of operation the brick furnace is more expensive, it is more difficult to warm up it, than iron, but also heat it keeps long time. If to speak about esthetic data of furnaces, then, certainly, brick wins against iron. By means of several types of this material, its various coloring and design the stove-setters create the real extraordinary ovens which it is possible to call safely the objects concerning rather art, than heating of bath.
Features of installation of iron and brick furnaces in baths
To bake in bath from any material it is necessary to establish prior to the beginning of finishing work. Mounting or laying of the furnace assume construction jobs after which the garbage accumulates, air becomes dusty, for bricklaying concrete solution which can get on walls, ceiling or regiments is used. Installation of the brick furnace requires more place, than for metal, and its system is much more volume than extract. The fact is that for high-quality and fast heating of brick hot air has to pass several so-called wells which are built in furnace body, but not at once get on the street. For metal only the opening in wall or ceiling of bath where the exhaust pipe will be removed is required. But the iron option requires "pillow" from fire-resistant material which will protect walls and floor from heating and will exclude risk of their ignition.
