Gas consumption for independent gasification
There are many formulas on the Internet that can be used to calculate gas consumption from the very beginning, but experts are of the opinion that the result will be an average indicator that has inaccuracies in some particular direction.
What affects the gas consumption of a gas tank?
Depending on the climate conditions of a certain area, the time of year, gas consumption during independent gasification can vary in a fairly significant range. First, this is set by the evaporation mirror that appears in the gas tank. Due to this, it is best to entrust the choice of this equipment to professionals, because. in other cases, it is acceptable to use a vertical tank as opposed to a horizontal one, and vice versa. Also, this parameter can be adjusted, giving preference to the underground installation of the gas tank capacity, which protects it from the influence of ambient temperature conditions. But in most cases, a surface installation is recommended to equip a more productive off-grid gasification system.
Also significant factors that affect gas consumption are:
- the quality of insulation of the outer walls, foundation and roof of the house, which determines the amount of heat loss of the building;
- wind rose in a certain area;
- set temperature regime;
- building area, number of doors and windows;
- number of people living in the house;
- technical characteristics of the boiler;
- permanent or periodic mode of residence;
- the use of additional and additional equipment.
How long does independent gasification refueling last?
Our firm performed its calculations based on functional observations, according to which 1 m? area with systematic residence, on average, 20–30 liters of gas is spent daily per year.
In other words, one refueling of a gas tank with a tank volume of 4800 liters is enough for 160-240 days. Basically, the owners order the next gas station at the beginning of the heating period, because. in the summer, consumption is significantly reduced.

Again, we carried out observations in residential buildings, where our professionals completed the work to create an independent gas supply
Therefore, it is necessary to take into account not only the key set of equipment, but also auxiliary modules, such as underfloor heating, number of radiator points, etc.

Consumption of liquefied gas for home heating
Gas consumption in systems of independent gasification of houses depends on a large number of various factors, the main of which are:
- the desired temperature regime in the house, the air temperature outside and the duration of the heating period;
- wall, window, door, ceiling and floor areas. For example, the larger the window area, the greater the heat loss and gas consumption by the boiler;
- material and construction of walls, ceiling, floor, doors, type of glass packets in windows. For example, the thicker the walls, the better their thermal insulation properties. Heat loss through wooden walls is less than through brick walls with their equal thickness, and a double-glazed window provides greater energy efficiency when compared with a single-chamber;
- mode of residence (permanent or on weekends and holidays);
- number of residents. This moment determines the gas consumption for cooking and preparing hot water for the DHW system;
- the presence of a swimming pool;
- operation of additional gas-using equipment (gas generator, outdoor infrared heaters, etc.).
Heat supply cost calculator
The calculator allows you to calculate the sufficient power of the boiler and compare the costs of home heating with mains gas, liquefied gas from a gas tank, diesel fuel (diesel oil) and electric current.
The following data were used in the calculations:
- duration of the heating period - 5256 hours;
- duration of non-permanent residence (summer and weekends 130 days) - 3120 hours;
- the average temperature during the heating period is minus 2.2°C;
- the ambient temperature of the coldest five-day period in St. Petersburg is minus 26°C;
- soil temperature under the house during the heating period - 5 ° C;
- lowered home temperature in the absence of a person - 8 ° C;
- insulation of the attic floor - a layer of mineral wool with a density of 50 kg / m? 200 mm thick.
High-quality gas - lower costs
The cost of refueling a gas tank
Timely refueling of gas tanks with high-quality Kirishi gas at a respectable first-hand price is a guarantee of good operation of the independent gas supply system and long-term partnership with our customers.
Filling a gas tank with high-quality gas is not only a guarantee of operation without various interruptions of an independent gas supply system, but also a comfortable operation of the heating system in winter. In order for the gas boiler not to stop, and the emergency gas electric generator to start reliably, you need to remember a few basic rules.
