Heating bath, the oven may threaten the safety of buildings, the health and lives of people. The temperature in the furnace reaches several hundred degrees. Therefore, most often insulation for different types of furnaces in the bath - need. The only way to protect themselves from the negative effects of infrared rays and red-hot air. Protective screen - ensure that, subject to other safety aspects, will be able to do without a fire.
Is it always necessary thermal insulation?
The need for screening occurs not always. Large baths allow heat sources set according to the standards. A certain distance between the stove and walls / vacationers makes additional protection unnecessary. But in the small family steam rooms following the rules makes the idea impractical bannuyu - important here every piece of square.
The illustrations displayed recommended distance between termoagregatami and bath walls. no oven was made of whatever material is considered to be a safe distance to the opposite wall not less than 1 m. But the parameters of the "ready" uzhatsya, provided that a thermal screen.
Shielding walls, which is set near the furnace
Typically, the walls of wooden finishing bath. It is subject to fire or charring. As thermal insulation sheathing use different refractory materials.
Robust casing with a small puff aesthetic effect
If the lining of the aesthetics in the background, you can save and use a combination of metal and insulator. First, the walls are fixed insulator and top metal sheet is mounted. As starting layer may be used:
- Plate minerita - fireproof panels, precisely calculated to create protective shields in saunas and baths;
- Basalt carton - trapping heat and protecting against fire, he still plays the role of sound insulator;
- basalt wool - a material having a high degree of fire resistance and hygroscopicity.
Alternatively, it is possible to use asbestos and sheets. But they are not harmless - when heated emit hazardous substances.
Next layer - sheet metal. It is better to use stainless steel. An alternative is zinc. Desirably, the sheets were smooth and shiny. The mirror surface reflects infrared rays from the walls. The last return to the steam room, but podrasteryal "rigidity" and becoming much safer for humans.
An example of such a protective finishes:
- ventilation gap - 3 cm;
- insulator - 2 cm;
- a metal sheet.
The distance between the oven wall and insulated - of at least 40 cm. To ensure termozazorov heater mounted with ceramic bushings.
Recommendation! If the distance between the heat source and the wall is close to the minimum standard, it is better to make a two-layer insulation. In this case, the gaps between the layers of wadding, or minerita similar alternative material - up to 3 cm.
Decorative protective linings
Using a combination of metal and insulator meets the functional needs, but not aesthetic. In an expensive sauna interior such a bunch is not allowed. In this case, the role played by the crowning layer of heat-resistant ceramic tiles.
Suitable for decoration of ceramics:
- granite; most durable and solid option; the material is also called artificial stone - there are many types that can mimic wood, stone, metal, etc .;
- clinker; popular variant furnace having a high density and diversity of shades;
- terracotta tiles; similar to the clinker, but has a lower strength; It performed both in matte and enameled format;
- tiles; ceramics, which in the past often decorated oven wealthy owners baths; the main feature of the tiles - a box-shaped rear part, which is formed due to high heat;
- talkhlorit; slabs of rock; characterized greenish and grayish shades.
Heat-resistant ceramics are placed on the heat-resistant tile adhesive. But we can not do without insulation. If the plates directly oblitsevat wooden wall, the latter will receive a substantial "portion" of heat, and it is fraught with a minimum of charring. Therefore ceramics - final layer under which are mounted either already known termomaterialov. K insulators described above can be added refractory plasterboard sheet of glass. Both options are well protect against the negative effects of high temperature, and also different LSU moisture resistance.
shielding furnaces
Provide protection against radiant heat and the screen can be around or near the stove. Insulation is a brick and metal.
Brick screening
Bricks can be protected as one of the sides of the oven, and all three - side and back. In the latter case, the form, in essence, a brick enclosure.
Brick put, keeping the distance between the walls of the furnace. The recommended distance - 5-10 cm. Approximate circuit protection device:
- ventilation gap - 5.10 cm;
- brick - 6-12 cm (depending on the size of masonry);
- ventilation gap - 5.10 cm;
- oven.
As the screen is typically used chamotte bricks. It is distinguished by optimal thermal performance. It is desirable to put in a half-brick (12 cm), but if we increase the intervals between walls and furnace, allowed masonry quarter brick. Chamotte placed on clay (clay or cement) solution or a special heat-resistant masonry mixture.
Below the screen are formed convection opening. Sometimes they do in other areas of the shielding wall. For the regulation of the air circulation holes do with doors.
Important! Brick must vertically overlap the oven, at least 20-30 cm
metal shielding
It is the most popular option, which is characterized by availability and fast performance. In a metal, it is necessary if the factory furnace was not originally equipped with thermal protection.
Most often, the role of isolation in the bath playing cast iron or steel sheets. They are assembled around the hearth, keeping the distance between 1-5 cm. If heat insulation factory furnace in the bath is absent hearth equip either the front or the side sheets. Screen type depends on the location and design of the furnace.
Such shielding allows the furnace to reduce the surface temperature to 100 degrees and below. This, in turn, reduces the regulatory distance between the heat source and the opposite wall twice - up to half a meter.
Do not forget! Paul, too, needs to be protected. The Overall oven, the more powerful must be the foundation. If the floor is wooden, it Thermal similarly - from the heat insulator and the outer layer (metal, brick, tile)
conclusion
Thermal insulation coating in the bath or sauna - Obligatory safety condition and comfortable stay in the room. The device further protection is not necessary if there is the presence of the insulator factory. There is no need for it, and when the oven made of brick - in this case, the protection is also present by default.
Option insulation depends on the parameters and the location of the furnace, as well as personal preferences and financial capabilities. To do with their hands shielding is easy - just the basic skills of home ownership tool.
