Apartment heating scheme. Individual heating system - dream of millions

Examples of heating installation in an apartment and a country house. Watch \u003e\u003e\u003e

Due to severe climatic conditions in our country heating is an obligatory part of the engineering systems of any apartment. As a rule, the heating system of the apartment is part of the central heating of the apartment building. Accordingly, the installation of heating in the apartment is made during the erection of the building. In some cases, it may be necessary to replace heating appliances, pipelines or install independent heating in the apartment.

In what cases it may be necessary to install heating in an apartment?

1. Repair. When carrying out cosmetic or major repairs, many apartment owners are changing the obsolete cast-iron radiators to modern ones. The main reason is the ability to select radiators that fit perfectly into the updated design of the premises. Installation of the "Warm floor" system under the tile or laminated parquet is also convenient to combine with the repair work.

2. Insufficient heating power. Over time, scale is deposited on the inner surface of risers, pipes and radiators. In old houses, this leads to a significant decrease in the power of the heating system, the batteries are warm. As a rule, the risers and pipelines change during the overhaul of the house, but if the matter in the radiators can be replaced without waiting for a major overhaul. The main thing is to make a diagnosis, to install heating in the apartment gave the expected result.

3. Interruptions in heating or lack of central heating. In some regions, centralized heating is unstable or for some reason absent. In this case, it is possible to install individual heating in the apartment. Since the apartments, as a rule, do not have a separate room under the boiler room, a heating boiler is installed in the kitchen. Heating equipment and kitchen facilities must meet certain requirements, and we will tell you more about them.

Installation of individual heating in the apartment

Next, we will talk about the requirements for the equipment and the installation of the kitchen required for the installation of individual heating in the apartment. First of all, it should be said that only gas heating boilers are allowed in the apartments, so it must be gasified. To make any changes to the internal engineering systems of the apartment you need to obtain the appropriate permission.

What are the requirements for the boiler and the kitchen?

In most homes, the system with central heating has completely exhausted itself. Often in the autumn, one must freeze and wait for the beginning of the heating season. And when it comes, it's unrealistic to get enough heat. As a consequence, condensate, dampness and mold are the main enemies of tenants of apartment buildings. Solve this problem in the root will help individual heating in the apartment. Of course, here it is necessary to take into account a large number of nuances.

With what to begin?

First, you need to collect all the necessary documentation that will be needed to implement the project. Legislation of the country does not prohibit the individual heating system in the apartment. So, it will be necessary to collect the following documents:

Technical passport of the apartment.
Statement of restructuring.
Document for housing.
Project for the reconstruction of the apartment.
The consent of every tenant of the apartment.

In this case, the apartment heating will be possible.

Floor Heating Advantages

Autonomous heating allows you to turn on the heating only when necessary. Advantages of individual heating:

The ability to adjust the temperature level in each room separately.
An excellent microclimate is created in the room.
There is no dependence on public utilities.
Pay only for the heat expended, on the heating meter in the apartment.

Determining with the heating system is important to take into account several important factors:

Efficiency.
Dimensions.
The cost.

Each of these points should be taken into account when calculating the scheme of the future project. The apartment heating includes the purchase of a separate boiler, radiators and pipes. In this case, you can make warm floors, making living more comfortable.

If you have to install independent heating in a corner apartment, then it is important to take into account the large heat losses. Here the heat loss is very strong, since the corner joints of the house, in most cases, are very weak. Moreover, the walls are strongly frozen in winter and through them into the housing, excess moisture penetrates. Pay for heat is on par with other tenants at home. To avoid any problems, independent heating will also be an ideal solution.

How to make the right calculations

If the entire system is mounted correctly, then the room will have a temperature that will completely satisfy the occupants. For this, it is important to carry out calculations based on the boiler's capacity of 10 m2 (W) and the area of the room (S). Individual features of the local climate are also taken into account. To choose a suitable heating boiler, you can use the formula:

Cat. = S W b / 10.

Of course, in the calculation it is necessary to include the features of the chosen scheme.

Usually a two-pipe system is used for an apartment. Although unlike the single-tube system in the implementation, it is more complicated and expensive, but its efficiency is much higher.

The two-pipe system evenly warms up every radiator. In a single-tube system, each radiator heats up gradually, and the last heat comes to the last.

Choosing a boiler is the heart of heating!

The next step to realize your dream of creating individual heating is to choose a boiler. The boiler is double-circuit or single-circuit. If you plan to use a boiler to heat water, then a single-circuit boiler will suffice. Heating units can operate on different fuels, for example, on gas, electricity or combined.

When choosing a boiler, pay attention to the material from which it is made. Usually, they are made of metal or cast iron. Although they will differ in weight, but the operating time will be much greater.

The most popular are gas-powered units. This is quite affordable fuel, so heating in the apartment with their own hands can be done with such equipment. It has an internal combustion chamber of a closed type. Also has a system for eliminating flue gases on the street. The use of such equipment has its advantages:

Quiet work.
Regardless of the gas pressure in the apartment, the normal temperature is maintained.
Several levels of safe operation.
It can be used in apartments of a small area.

As for the electric boiler, it can also be used as the main source of heat. In some cases, it is installed as an alternative to the main one. They are also manufactured as floor and wall. Boilers working on electricity have their advantages:

Efficiency.
Economical.
Hygiene.
Noiselessness, etc.

The choice of pipes and radiators is a balanced approach!

Among other things, polypropylene pipes are very popular. Their operating temperature is 95 ° C. You can use other technologies, for example, copper, metal or metal-plastic pipes. To a greater extent, the financial possibilities will influence the choice.

If the boiler will work on solid fuel, then, of course, it is better to mount metal pipes.

The number of pipes and their diameter is calculated in advance on the project. This also applies to the purchase of radiators. In each separate room, batteries of different sizes will be required. An important role is played by the heat transfer of a material. For example:

Cast iron gives 110 watts of heat.
Aluminum up to 199 watts of heat.
Steel up to 85 watts.
Bimetallic 199 watts.

How correctly to calculate the heated area? For this, the heat transfer of one section must be divided by an index of 100. For example, one section of a bimetallic radiator, with a ceiling of 2.7 m, will heat: 199 ÷ 100 = 1.99 m2. As a consequence, based on the total area of the room, it is considered how many sections are needed.

Features of calculating the radiator sections, which must be taken into account.

If the room is angular, it is additionally recommended to add up to three sections.
If you use a decorative panel for the battery, it will reduce heat dissipation by up to 15%.
The installed heatsink in the niche reduces the heat output by 10%.
Metal-plastic windows with a multi-chamber profile increase the heat savings.
Insulated walls, floor, ceiling will reduce heat loss.

To regulate the energy consumption, you can additionally install a heating meter in the apartment. So, it will be possible to accurately see and take into account the work of the system under different conditions.

Installation of heating - the finishing touch!

Create an individual heating can be without involving specialists. The most important thing is to follow clearly all the recommendations and recommendations.

Installation of the boiler, gas supply and other auxiliary equipment should be entrusted to specialists.

Piping and installing batteries can be done by yourself. The method of laying the pipeline will depend on various factors. For example, the main can be open or closed in the wall. When the whole system is assembled it is important to perform a test run. This will allow you to see how tight all connections are, and also to prevent repairs in the midst of the heating season.

So, we have considered with you the peculiarities of manufacturing individual heating. Remember, the lack of heating in the apartment can lead to fatal consequences. Therefore, do not take risks, but make every effort to create a reliable project.

Only at first glance it may seem that it is almost impossible to mount heating in an apartment without proper experience. But in fact, if you approach the matter with all seriousness, taking into account even the smallest details, then the question of how to perform correctly installation of heating in the apartment with their own hands will go away by itself. Here, a competent calculation and study of the theoretical component of the entire installation process is important.

There are some basic aspects of installing heating yourself, which should be known and considered. So, for example, it is necessary to understand which materials and tools to use. The modern market provides a wide variety of heating equipment and materials that sometimes even experienced masters fiddling with assortment. Therefore, first of all, to make heating in the apartment with their own hands, one must understand the specifics of modern heating equipment and materials.

There are not a few dozen different elements to be assembled during installation, so to collect all this constructional puzzle you should precisely select all necessary details:

Radiator Set
Pipes of the required length and diameter
Fittings, etc., etc.

When planning to install heating, it should be remembered that the design of each apartment can be very individual. And if one type of heating battery is suitable for a neighboring apartment, this does not mean that it will work in your case. There will always be certain nuances, in view of which installation of heating system in the apartment with their own hands can be inhibited.

Do not be too hasty with the purchase of materials and even more so with the installation work. Work through all the installation features, take into account the configuration of the room, complex obstacles that may arise during operation.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW: If you do not have enough experience in the installation work or when choosing the materials, the best option for you is to consult with specialists in this field. This precaution will not be superfluous, considering that the heating equipment and materials are quite expensive and you, most likely, will not want to do everything wrong and throw away the wasted money, energy and precious time.

Let's try to understand the variety of materials provided to us today by the heating market.

Cast-iron radiators

The price of these devices is quite high, despite the effective operation and longevity of devices. It should be noted that the cast-iron batteries cool down for a long time, gradually giving heat to the room in contrast, for example from aluminum ones and this is another plus of these devices.

The sections of devices are able to accommodate a large amount of heat carrier (water), therefore, in the case of operating an electric boiler, a cast-iron battery type is hardly suitable or not the best option, since when heating a large volume of water, much excess energy will be expended. But on the other hand, if central heating is provided, it is logical to use this type of battery.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW: It must be remembered that the weight of these devices is quite serious and most likely here it will be necessary to resort to the help of site mates or to use the services of movers, since it is hardly possible to bring the unit into an apartment. Also during the installation you will need third-party help.

Sectional aluminum and bimetallic radiators

This type of radiator is advisable to use in the event that there is a central heating in the apartment, which, as a rule, does not always correspond to the norms. So, for example hard water and various garbage will not spoil such type of radiators.

The advantage of these bimetal radiators is the ability to adjust the number of sections to a larger or smaller side, depending on the needs. Such radiators have a relatively high cost and quickly cool down, this is a minus of these devices.

Steel radiators panel type

This type of radiators is installed by many apartment owners, since they are in balance between price and quality. They are quite good perform their direct function of heating the room, and their service life is relatively large.

Installation of steel panel radiators is very simple and does not require you, any specific knowledge, skills and experience, you will be able to perform the installation yourself.

These devices still have disadvantages so, for example, they tend to be exposed to corrosive processes. Average service life of radiators under favorable conditions in the region of 5-10 years. It is not recommended to drain water for long periods, since they quickly undergo corrosion due to air ingress into the compartment system.

Now you have some idea about the choice of radiators and by not much begins to clear up the picture of exactly how you will carry out heating in the apartment with your own hands. We go further, namely we select pipes.

We select pipes for the installation of heating in an apartment with their own hands

Before you begin the installation of heating you will need to decide what pipes for heating choose. Pipes for heating system in the apartment there are different diameters and from very different materials.

There are several tube options, from which you need to choose the appropriate one in your case:

Pipes of steel type. Pros: resistance to various types of mechanical damage and a good heat transfer material. Cons: during installation, the services of a steel pipe welder are required to corrode over time.
Pipes of metal-plastic materials. Pros: differ relatively low cost and ease of installation. Minus: during installation, as a rule, a whole chain of connections follows, through which further leakage of the coolant and failure of the entire heating system can occur.
Pipes of pure plastic. Pros: Despite the higher cost, the reliability of such materials makes choosing in favor of plastic pipes. The connections of such materials are strong enough and durable, the pipes do not rust and do not decay. Cons: None. Although if you compare the resistance to pressure drops, then plastic, of course, will give way to metal.

It turns out that to make heating in the apartment with your own hands through the installation of plastic pipes is the most optimal option. As for radiators, they can be used of any type, since the principle of pipe installation as a whole has similarities. Depending on what is being installed heating system pipe diameter it is necessary to select in compliance with all sanitary standards.

For example, let's try to consider the installation by using steel radiators of panel type and pipes made of plastic material.

We acquire the necessary tools and materials

In addition to pipes and radiators, you will also need:

Cranes, fasteners for radiators, fittings;
Silicone sealant, sealing tape;
Dowels of suitable size and self-tapping screws;
Scissors for cutting pipes and a special soldering iron;
Various wrenches;
Screwdriver and punch;
Level of water type, as well as measuring tape and pencils;

Here is the basic set of tools with which you can make proper heating in an apartment with your own hands.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW: If there is no necessary tool, you can always rent it from the nearest specialized company. The installation of heating in the apartment does not take much time, so there is no special need for the purchase of expensive equipment.

So, with the instrument figured out, you can start installing the system yourself.

We mount heating in an apartment with our own hands

Correct marking, first of all. Mark the pipe passages and the location of the fastening elements for the radiators. It should be noted that all batteries are recommended to be installed and

to fix on one level. It is not at all difficult to do this, the water level will come to your aid, with it you will easily realize your plans. This is done in the following way: marks are placed over one window for the first radiator and then transferred by means of a level for all other devices.

The marking is done properly, now you can fix the radiators to the wall in their places. For this we will need: a perforator, a hammer, fixing elements for radiators, dowels and screws. In the points marked out in advance, holes are drilled, they carefully clog the dowels and fix the fasteners to the screws, then install the radiators in place.

The next stage of installation will be the calculation of the number of required pipes, length and diameter and their purchase.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW: If there is a partner, then you can entrust him with the job of screwing the fittings into the radiators, to which the pipes will later be attached. And in the meantime you will be engaged in soldering connections.

All work on the installation is better to start from the place of water supply (from the entrance) or from the place of return water supply. All this is done in this way, because in such places there is usually no need to use soldering. In these places, the carving is mainly made on metal pipes and suitable fittings are screwed onto them. Spike will only be at the junction of the fitting with the plastic pipe.

The picture above shows the possible schemes for connecting the heating system in the apartment.

Proceeding from the scheme, to the common lines it is necessary to solder parts of the pipes that will lead to all the other radiators. At the end of each piece of pipe you need to weld a connecting tap with a soldering iron and then connect the whole system together.

This completes the installation of heating in the apartment with their own hands. now you understand how to properly install heating in the apartment with their own hands.

The assembly of the system itself is similar to the designer, where each part must be assembled in a certain order. The first thing to do is fix the radiators and then proceed from their location, the whole system is fitted and assembled.

If you have raised the issue as how to properly heat make in the apartment with your own hands, it is not superfluous to install and warm water floors by yourself, especially since it does not take away much effort, time and financial costs, and the effect from them in the future will be very noticeable. The site has detailed information on the installation of warm floors.

A few words in conclusion

Everything is not so difficult as it seems, and now you know how to make heating in the apartment with your own hands. It is only necessary to act strictly according to a certain plan, observing instruction and taking into account every nuance and then everything will work out for you.

Installation of heating in an apartment with your own hands: video

Rating: 385

Recently, a growing number of people in our country are experiencing a desire to move from urban high-rise buildings somewhere else: either to the elite metropolitan area, or beyond - to where it is possible to settle in.
Reasons for changing the place of residence can be, indeed, quite a lot, but the inability to realize in an apartment with their own hands is one of the main factors that influence this decision. This is due to the fact that weather conditions at different times of the year are marked by sharp temperature changes, and winters are usually particularly frosty. The quality of heating of any premises at times leaves much to be desired, and that is why, in pursuit of comfort and coziness, people are trying to somehow solve this issue. And they are just helping private houses and apartments with the same principle of autonomy.

Thanks to the possibilities of modern maintenance and innovation, the process of constructing the autonomous becomes more accessible to the masses, and more and more tenants are making attempts to reconfigure their heating systems under such a more convenient option for living.

"Why do I need to install an autonomous heating system? Just spend money? "- These questions are asked by residents of modern well-equipped multi-storey buildings, which, more often than not, do not have any special problems with heating their apartments. Perhaps in this case, indeed, it is not profitable to change the design of its heating system. However, for those who live in average, not so technically equipped houses, such a solution will help to significantly reduce energy costs, because a large part of the population has to use additional devices for.

Naturally, even with a serious need to move from a common to an apartment, you should carefully think through and take this step in improving your comfortable life with all responsibility. Weigh all the pros and cons, study all the nuances, anticipate the possible consequences of the system rebuilding and only then make the final decision - change or not to change. If the choice was still made in favor of making changes to your living conditions, then the next step for you should be to study the proposed in the market for heating apartments.

Arrangement and selection of premises

If you have undertaken this activity for the first time, then, most likely, it will be very difficult for you to choose the one suitable for you and your apartment. Therefore, alone with this issue should not be dealt with - ask for help from a specialist in this field and get detailed advice on all aspects of repair that interest you. Also, he should help you in choosing an apartment system that will allow you to avoid serious costs to pay bills and bring as much benefit and coziness as possible.

The variant of the scheme of independent heating

The choice of this or that scheme should usually depend on what you are trying to achieve: what rooms you are trying to heat through the areas and how much, for example. That is, it is important to determine what effect you expect from the reconstruction of the heating system.

Thus, for the installation of heating, working on an autonomous basis, it is necessary to develop its clear design plan and determine the model of operation. Strictly forbidden are any attempts to transform the scheme according to their "creative" considerations and the desire to bring into it something peculiar! You only need to strictly follow the prescribed rules when installing such a system, and from a step away from the instructions your life may even depend.

Assistance of specialists in installation

Practice has shown that amateur performance in this issue often led to tragedies, so it's better not to risk and involve a professional in this activity, so as not to make any serious mistakes.

Regulations

One more thing:

Remember that any transformation related to the house in which you live should be agreed and approved by the utilities.

To do this, much is not required - you just collect the necessary documentation, write an application and wait for the decision of the commission. Otherwise, you can be fined a fairly large amount or even worse ... And the dismantling of your new system will be guaranteed.

Also before, it is highly recommended to inspect all of its premises in order to detect any defects in repair, which may be one of the reasons for not keeping heat in the apartment. If you manage to find such problem areas, be sure to repair them. This in many respects will help you to keep warm air in the rooms, and, consequently, and significantly reduce your cash costs in the future on fuel consumption for the heating system.

For the arrangement of autonomous heating in an apartment today there are two types of systems: gas and. And since at the present stage enjoys greater popularity, we suggest to dwell on a detailed examination of all its features.

The main reason why people tend to choose the autonomous heating of an apartment, made by themselves, lies in the ease of operation and access to almost every average citizen of the price.

Most of the specialists, whose field of activity lies in the installation of specifically gas-fired individual heating systems, argue that it will be most rational to install such equipment, which includes in its design. As a rule, such boilers mean the presence of a special chamber intended for fuel combustion, the safety of its use, and the presence of a high-quality chimney.

The main advantages of this system are:

low cost (as mentioned above) when it is purchased and operated;
wide, differing in the same cost, volume, fuel costs, heating capacity and so on;
simplicity of operation, which is based on the possibilities of automatic regulation, switching on and off of the system according to your needs, and also it manifests itself in the ability to set the optimum temperature and then maintain it;

Easy operation

total design - it means that you do not need to think through the ventilation device, since all this will already be included in the kit of this system;
compactness and lack of noise - the boiler is relatively small and does not emit any extraneous sounds that can distract the tenants of the apartment.

So, as you can see, the choice of a gas system for individual heating of your apartment is a convenient, economical and comfortable option!

Finally, we emphasize once again that before moving from a communal apartment to an independent apartment heating, you should definitely contact a specialist! Whether you are a novice or a connoisseur in repair work, do not rush to think that reinstalling all heating appliances and elements of your design is such a simple matter. Everything can only seem too easy, and in reality, as a result of assuming even the most elementary mistakes, turn into a catastrophe. And not only for you, but for others.

Remember that there can always be nuances of editing that you simply will not know about, so do not be afraid to spend extra money on the invitation of the master - life and health are still more expensive. In addition, having spent a certain amount for specialist services, you can save on buying new devices for your system: it happens that a professional dismantles an old heating complex so that he continues to work in your home. Safety and efficiency - that's what all of yours will turn out in this case. And it can hardly be argued that this is a very profitable investment ...
