Foundation for the fireplace

Like any structure, and stove should have a solid foundation. The fact that put together brick, mortar, ceramics and other details of the heating unit look high and massive construction. Therefore, its construction will need a strong foundation that will withstand heavy loads and ensure strict vertical structures. Otherwise, after a short time, resulting in potential misalignment structures caused by subsidence the base will begin to appear cracks and even fractures, which can significantly impair the heating characteristics of the fire and become cause fire.

The main requirements to the foundation

• It is necessary to choose the right place for the stove-fireplace. This means that during the construction of the heating unit can not be taken into account only its advantages in terms of design. That is, to start the construction of the foundation processand it is necessary in parallel with the walls of the building, eliminating the need in the future to implement costly measures to dismantle parts of the floor, ceiling elements, etc.
• Remember that the walls of the room and the foundation under the stove will operate different load, they shrinkage - also different. Therefore, if you want a fireplace against a wall or make it a part of, then immediately discard such an option. If you really really need it between the foundation necessary to leave a small gap (at least 5-7 cm) and fill it with dry sand.

Important! It is impossible to arrange the foundation for a variety of building construction as a whole.

• Observe that direct base plane must, along the entire perimeter to be wider than approximately 5-7 cm from the dimensions of the so-called table under the stove, and the pit - a minimum depth of 55-60 cm. Although the deeper - the better (within reason).

• It is necessary to have information on the state and type of soil on which going to build a foundation. Keep in mind that for sandy soils is characterized by rapid subsidence, vlazhnoglinistye counterparts - are not capable of withstanding heavy loads. It is recommended that the foundation lie below the freezing of the soil about 25-30 cm.

Material

Usually used rubble stone, gravel, gravel, brick (not necessarily an integer) for the arrangement of the foundation, that is, you can use whatever is at hand. In order to securely connect all fillers among themselves, enjoy cement or lime-cement mortar. Est proportion of sand / cement ratio of 6: 1 (volume ratio). Lime can be added at your discretion, but we can not get carried away and not to allow the solution was white.

Metal for heating furnace

Overview

With the help of such equipment are heated bathhouses, cottages, cabins workers and other small rooms.

Such ovens are characterized by:

• functionality. This means that for all the time to improve, today created a model whose work is characterized by multi-temperature at different times of the day. Thanks to these innovations, the design can be customized to ensure optimal indoor climate;
• low efficiency. Today's options for metal furnaces are constantly being improved. Such measures provide the opportunity to choose a different fuel, which is very important for the consumer. Furthermore, continuous efforts to increase the area of ​​the furnace facilitates permanent increase efficiency;
• universal bundle, in particular, in modern models set tank to heat the water, so you can use the machine not only in baths, but also in country houses and other residential buildings;
• good design, so that from a large range of performance, you can choose stylish enough. High efficiency plus ergonomic - a perfect combination. To decorate the products are increasingly used decorative glass elements and forged parts.

Wall and ceiling

The greatest thermal load amenable ceiling and walls, which are adjacent to the furnace. So just stick to some inevitable fire conditions and the implementation of measures:

• for arrangement of the ceiling above the oven, it is necessary to use non-combustible materials. It is prohibited to use wood, and furthermore, plastic panels. Optimal - gipsovolokonnyh plate;
• used to protect the walls, they set a basalt cardboard, which is necessary to sheathe steel. For this purpose, are now adjusted manufacture finished decorative wall protective screens made of stainless steel, which are characterized by beautiful appearance. But most importantly, these elements help to ensure a high degree of security. To protect the walls can also use the plaster (thickness ≥3 cm) ceramic termoplitki and masonry.

Features metal furnaces

Often, as a simpler and more budget option, used for such purposes prizabytye old stoves in the new, more modern versions. This heat generator is characterized:

• long life;
• rapid heating of the premises;
• possibility of temperature control in manual mode;
• reliability;
• the possibility of using any type of fuel;
• acceptable price.

One of the advantages - rapid heating, is at the same time a disadvantage because the structure quickly cools. In addition, the unit requires constant care, and use it for cooking purposes - is virtually impossible.

After weighing all the pros and cons, the owner himself has to decide which construction furnace will be installed in the house.

brick oven

Fundam brick for furnace

Many prefer the brick kilns. As with all buildings, and for such a unit needs a good foundation. Most often used by its two types: concrete and piling.

Features of the construction of the foundation uses Construction Materials

• to prepare a trench linear dimensions of which must exceed 15-20 cm dimensions main structure;
• fill the bottom with gravel to a height of 15-18 cm;
• compacted by a horizontal output level;
• mount a wooden formwork in accordance with dimensions of the foundation;
• impose an inner surface covered with roofing felt or bitumen;
• fill the formwork gravel bed approximately 12-13 cm nonstandard fractions 80-120 mm;
• the space between the stones remember gravel fraction 5-20 mm;
• pour formwork medium density solution, observing that the mixture of cement and sand (ratio 1: 3) to fill all of the gap between the stones.

After that you should make the stove base. If the structure is small, it is possible to do it on the same day, if more - then carry out the work under the scheme:

1. After pouring the first layer of crushed stone, give him a chance to dry for 24 hours.
2. After forming the second layer also need to take a break for a day.
3. To perform such actions until completely form the foundation, bearing in mind that the level of the floor must be 7 cm above the flooded base.
4. The final stage anticipates the final surface smoothing via level.

Mounting

Most often used in the building brick oven embodiment. Spread structure need for strict scheme. Particular attention should be paid to the laying of the first row because of it depends not only on the availability of facilities in the future perfect right angles, but also excellent functioning of the whole unit.

Important! All bricks must be wet in the water, which you need to put a number of small capacity.

Before you get started, you need to buy the necessary materials, accessories.

Tip! For brick oven best buy lattice gate, door furnace, an oven, stove and other necessary elements of the iron. Also, most of the professional stove-makers have special tools kits for furnaces building.

2. Grate is set with a small gap.
3. When mounting the firebox door remember that it should be with a construction wire, "hidden" in the seams that will protect it against possible melt during continuous burning.
4. Before the arrangement plate of masonry, where it should be installed, fit entirely without mortar. This is due to the fact that it is necessary to make the outline of the plate arrangement. Thereafter, brick removed, the groove is selected for stacking asbestos cord, which is placed on the solution and brick. If the cooking oven type, it is desirable to equip an oven and the tub in which it will be possible to heat the water. By the way, the advantage of this oven in comparison with the electrical analog - evident, but only during the cold season, such as the oven is not always used in the summer.
5. During the laying of the chimney must remember to install the valve on the channel summer travel. To accommodate its use internal angle brewhouse.
6. The cap is laid up to the ceiling opening.
7. After putting some designs mounted on a decorative brick belt should do the installation of the chimney. Most prefer brick option because it will last longer. It should not be squeamish metal or asbestos samples, which can also be used for a long time.
