Boiler selection
The type of boiler depends on the type of energy carrier on which it operates. The main element for heating a house should be selected taking into account the available type of fuel.
Gas
Due to their efficiency, gas units remain the most popular. An obstacle to their use may be the lack of gas pipelines in close proximity to the land. It should be noted that this type of equipment needs constant maintenance and control by special services.
solid fuel
If the area is not gasified, the design of heating systems can be carried out taking into account the use of a solid fuel boiler. This will make it possible not to depend on a centralized supply of energy carriers, but will require additional sources of solid fuel and a dry place for its storage.
Liquid fuel
To install a heating system for a private house, you can purchase a boiler that runs on liquid energy. However, diesel is an expensive type of fuel, so the cost of its use will increase significantly. It will also require underground installation of a special tank in which it will be stored. It should be remembered about the high degree of fire hazard of a diesel engine.
Electricity
It is desirable to use an electric boiler in a joint system with electric radiators. Such a project involves the conversion of electricity into heat without a water resource - directly.
By analogy with liquid fuel, such an energy carrier will cost a lot. If funds allow, in such a situation it is better to opt for autonomous heating, which allows you to receive electricity from solar and wind converters or mini-hydro stations.
Heat supply design Purpose
The heating system must:
- Bring the coolant into the proper functional state
- Deliver and distribute it to end users
The final consumers in this scheme are heating systems, hot water supply systems, specialized installations of industrial enterprises. A good heat supply project must meet the above goals, take into account the characteristics of heat carriers.
At heat supply design
It must be taken into account that heat supply systems are divided into centralized and autonomous. They consist of:
- heat source (boiler house or CHP)
- heat-conducting lines
- terminal devices for heat distribution
Maintenance of the building heating system
After the correct heat engineering calculation of the heat supply of the building, it is necessary to know the mandatory list of regulatory documents for its maintenance. You need to know this in order to timely control the operation of the system, as well as to minimize the occurrence of emergencies.
Drawing up an act of inspection of the heating system of the building takes place only by representatives of the responsible company. This takes into account the specifics of heat supply, its type and current state. During the inspection of the heating system of the building, the following items of the document must be filled out:
- Location of the house, its exact address.
- Link to the contract for the supply of heat.
- The number and location of heat supply devices - radiators and batteries.
- Temperature measurement in rooms.
- Coefficient of load change depending on current weather conditions.
To initiate an inspection of the heating system at home, you must submit an application to the management company. It must indicate the reason - poor performance of heat supply, emergency or non-compliance of the current parameters of the system with the norms.
According to current regulations, during an accident, representatives of the management company must eliminate its consequences within a maximum of 6 hours. Also after that, a document is drawn up on the damage caused to the owners of the apartments due to the accident. If the reason is an unsatisfactory condition, the management company must restore the apartments at its own expense or pay compensation.
Often, during the reconstruction of the heating system of a building, it is necessary to replace some of its elements with more modern ones. Costs are determined by the fact - on whose balance sheet the heating system is located. Restoration of pipelines and other components that are not located in the apartments should be handled by the management company.
If the owner of the premises wanted to change the old cast-iron batteries to modern ones, the following actions should be taken:
- An application is drawn up to the management company, which indicates the plan of the apartment and the characteristics of future heaters.
- After 6 days, the Criminal Code is obliged to provide technical specifications.
- According to them, the selection of equipment is carried out.
- Installation is carried out at the expense of the owner of the apartment. But at the same time, representatives of the Criminal Code must be present.
The video tells about the features of radiator heating:
Modern technologies make it possible to design the heating of a private house, taking into account the requirements and personal preferences of the owners of the home.
The responsible process, on which the microclimate and comfort in the rooms directly depend, must be approached with special attention, having studied all possible options and opting for a more optimal one.
Water
The heating project based on the most common water system is the planning of a closed circuit, through which hot water is continuously circulated. In this case, the function of the heater is performed by the boiler, from which pipes are bred through the rooms and are adjacent to the radiators, which give off the main amount of heat.
Having carried out the heat transfer, the water flows back into the boiler, where it heats up again and repeats the technological cycle. The heater for the water type of heating are boilers that run on any fuel. The water heating system is divided into two types: natural and forced.
natural circulation
In the first case, the coolant circulates through pipes and radiators without additional force. This effect is achieved by a certain method of mounting the elements of the heating main.
The design of heating with natural water circulation provides for the necessary angle of inclination of the pipes, which makes it possible for the process to proceed under the influence of gravity.
forced circulation
The forced movement of water through the system is achieved by the operation of a circulation pump integrated into the heating boiler. Unlike natural circulation, forced circulation needs a source of electricity from which the pump is powered.
Wiring
Natural and forced water circulation system can be used for single-pipe, two-pipe and collector wiring. In the first case, the design of heating systems involves the installation of one pipe, which performs the function of supplying and discharging water at the same time.
With this scheme, the temperature of the radiator farthest from the boiler will be lower than the near one. In addition, if one battery fails, the rest will also cease to function, since they cannot be switched off individually.
Two-pipe wiring makes it possible to evenly heat the batteries due to the fact that the supply pipe is connected in parallel to each of them. The second pipe takes the cooled coolant back to the boiler. Provided that a tap is installed on each radiator, they can be turned off individually.
Collector wiring is the most convenient, since after its installation, you can adjust the temperature of the coolant in each individual room.For this method of space heating, the installation of a collector cabinet is required.
aerial
Such a system can be mounted only at the stage of construction of the building. It is not suitable for a finished private house. This is due to the need to install metal, plastic or textile air ducts through which hot air heated by a heat generator is blown out.
A warm stream enters the room from under the ceiling and displaces cold air, which, in turn, returns to the heat generator through the air ducts.
Designing heating according to the air heating method allows you to install a system for external intake of clean air, which is mixed with the flow. Circulation can be achieved in a gravitational or forced way.
Natural air exchange occurs due to the temperature difference, and forced air exchange is carried out using special ventilation equipment. The heat generator can burn diesel fuel, natural gas (main or bottled) and kerosene. The products of combustion are removed through the chimney.
Heating project Options
Regardless of the type of system, heat supply design poses a set of technical challenges for developers. It should not only be about the schemes for laying supply pipes - the heat supply project begins with the choice of the heat supply system itself
- centralized or autonomous
- fuel - on gas, electricity, fuel oil, solid fuel, combined
- with a supply of highways from one boiler house or from several
- coolant - water, gaseous medium
Heat supply design requires developers not only to determine the most efficient scheme, but also to solve the set design / installation tasks with minimal financial investment.

Creating an efficient heating system for large buildings is significantly different from similar autonomous schemes for cottages. The difference lies in the complexity of the distribution and control of the coolant parameters. Therefore, you should take a responsible approach to the choice of the heating system for buildings: types, types, calculations, surveys. All these nuances are taken into account at the design stage of the structure.
What is the heating system
The main element of the heating structure is the boiler. The selection of the central unit is based on the required power. To find it out, it is necessary to divide the total area of \u200b\u200bthe house by the specific power.
In this way, we find out the minimum power of a heating boiler that can provide heat to all residential premises. 25% is usually added to the resulting number, thereby placing the optimal load on the unit and leaving a power reserve in case of unforeseen frosts.
Modern heating boilers are equipped with an electronic control system and other necessary elements. In addition to the heating boiler, the heating project includes a piping and radiator layout.

Which system to choose
The design of the heating of a private house is carried out taking into account the energy carrier that will be used to heat the room. There are several of the most common systems by which heat is supplied to all interior spaces of a building:
- water;
- air;
- electric;
- open fire.
By "open fire" is meant a hearth or stove. Both of these heat sources are ineffective in the issue of full-fledged home heating, as they distribute hot air unevenly. They are most often included in a heating project as decorative elements. Let's take a closer look at other systems.
