The technology of construction of frame houses has number of distinctive features from which main thing is high energy saving rates. Proceeding from it, requirements for material selection and mounting modes are imposed to mounting of heating services.
Features of heating of frame houses
Thanks to the high level of thermal insulation of frame houses, it is possible to save considerable funds for heating. But for achievement of the maximum effect of operation of engineering networks, it is necessary to follow these steps competently: - to make the project of future system;
- to calculate the necessary amount of materials and spare parts; - to make distributing of system;
- to carry out mounting of elements and to connect all components of system; - to carry out pressure test. In most cases for the organization of heating system in frame houses plastic pipes are used. As the heat carrier it is possible to use antifreeze, water.
The choice of pipes for heating of the frame house
The pipeline is the most important element of water supply system and heating. For trouble-free operation of all system it is necessary to pick up correctly pipes, boiler and radiators. The modern construction market offers steel, metal, copper, polypropylene, plastic pipes and also stainless steel pipes. Pipes from the reinforced polypropylene were widely used in heating services of frame houses thanks to the anticorrosion properties and long term of operation. The choice of the reinforced pipes is not accidental as, passing through designs, simple propylene pipes are extended and can be deformed. Sandwich construction of pipes allows to bring heat carrier temperature to 100 wasps. But here high water quality and tightness of system is obligatory. As a result of improvement of properties of the reinforced polymeric pipes, metal plastic pipes which also work with high pressure and temperature of the heat carrier have been received. The main improvement of functional performance concerns modernization of physical properties of these pipes. They easily bend, it is convenient to connect them to other elements of system. Expense of the metal plastic pipes completing when mounting minimum, and life cycle – the maximum 50 years. On life cycle indicator copper pipes are considered as the most durable. They can normally function for 100 years. Temperature of the heat carrier reaches 200 OS, and the working pressure which copper pipes – 30 atmospheres are capable to sustain. If qualified specialists undertake installation of pipe and all heating services, then trouble-free and effective operation of heating services is guaranteed.
