Professionals doing their job on the installation of gas communications, guided by departmental regulations, the design does not interest them. Over time, the owners are thinking about improving the interior. In any situation, to hide the gas communication, you can select the most suitable method that does not violate safety rules.
Placement of gas pipes and privacy requirements of SNIP
To gas communications do not interfere with the arrangement of furniture, you do not spoil the interior, you can transfer them to another location. The procedure is complicated, involves not only financial costs, required coordination with the gas service. For this reason, most people think about how nice hide a gas pipe in the kitchen.
Those who want to change the location of the communication, it must be remembered that the unauthorized action is unacceptable: they are fraught with catastrophic consequences not only for the initiator, but also for its neighbors. If necessary, turn the gas service, which coordinate all the work.
SNIP rules prohibit:
- start gas communications in air ducts;
- arrange removable box on the riser;
- make a sealed casing;
- utaplivat pipe wall;
- finish plaster.
Use tension or ceiling to mask the gas pipes is forbidden, because they do not follow these basic precautions: quick access. There can only be distributed plumbing, heating or electrical communication.
Close highway corridor can be in compliance with safety regulations. Typically the pipe tested under the ceiling, closing them tightly duct prohibited. Even if you arrange inspection covers can be a claim on the part of the gas service if the work carried out without coordination with them. The original solution - the device narrow shelf under the pipe, so that it is not viewed from the bottom. It is possible to decorate or simply apply a layer of paint.
Requirements are dictated by safety standards. Rule of okolotrubnoy area with good ventilation or completely open due to the fact that he should not accumulate at the gas leak. If you violate the regulations on time residents do not know about the problem, which is signaled by the smell of special additives.
How original dye gas pipes in the kitchen
Not every host mask tube, the majority prefers a simple and low cost methods. The most common variant - painting, which can be made decorative, so that the pipe perfectly fit into the interior. Often it painted a tree trunk, such as birch. If you draw on the wall a few leaves, they seem to continue to track, will make the original design.
coloring option is very simple and familiar. Its advantages are:
- the ability to perform almost every person without much effort and knowledge;
- low cost;
- a properly selected shade into the interior;
- complete safety - communication is always available.
The lack of a single - pipe remains visible, even if the most careful disguise.
Gas line in the kitchen, covered in the same tone flat surface, it is unobtrusive, blends harmoniously with the interior. Contrasting colors are used rarely, only if they are present in the style of the apartment. When the master has artistic abilities, nice geometric or floral designs on the pipe will appear appropriate.
Reiling - just to surprise
To use this embodiment ideal horizontally disposed pipes. Usually they run parallel to the kitchen apron, and there is an empty space between it and the wall cabinets. That pipe is used as the basis reylingovoy design. Metal trimmed to a base coated with primer and several layers of paint with effect of chrome plating or bronze.
When the pipe is dry, proceed to translate design ideas. On the wall above him secure the hooks to accommodate a variety of kitchen utensils, towels. There is a visual effect that they hang directly on the pipeline. Also placed in this interval shelves, can be set for drying dishes. There are many options, their implementation depends on fantasy owners. Reylingovoe design gives the kitchen an interior a modern look. Another positive side - the permanent access to the pipes.
Important! Line may not be a supporting element, which creates the load. It performs a purely decorative function.
Masking in decoupage style - nothing fancy
The use of this technique is very simple. A gas pipe in the kitchen, the bathroom corridor can be closed using inexpensive materials: PVA glue and the lacquer for finishing. Appearance depends multilayer paper or fabric wipes which are selected pattern on the taste hosts.
Embody the idea in the following sequence:
- cleaned gas communication to shine, carefully removing the old paint, grease and dirt, left to dry;
- napkin coated adhesive layer was then carefully separated from the pattern;
- it is applied to the tube, carefully smoothed;
- again, adhesive is applied;
- after drying the varnish, which will give luster.
Napkins have a variety of designs, so that the decor may be original. The main thing that it was in harmony with the design of the kitchen.
Decorating in this style is particularly easily performed on plasterboard boxes, which are hidden under the gas communications. Use a special film for decoupage. Compared with napkins it easier to work on the decoration does not remain even small irregularities that may in the previous case. Caring for these surfaces easy - just wipe with a damp cloth.
An interesting variant of imitation palm trees: the implementation does not require much effort. Use thick twine, they wrapped sections of the pipeline that are in sight. Complementary decoration hanging on while citrus fruits, curly liana plants, flowers.
Is it possible to sew up the gas pipes in the apartment plasterboard
All options considered previously secret communications, but only camouflage. It does not suit everybody, so resorted to the construction of the box. They use the most common and allowed by the material - plasterboard, but is possible to use plywood, plastic, MDF. Basically prefer GCR because of the low cost and ease of installation. In addition it will need special profiles, screws. Of tools - screwdriver and tin snips.
In addition to easy installation, attract other advantages. Pipes completely disappear under the duct, which will become part of the interior. Decor similar design is performed in different techniques: simple staining to be appropriate or film for decoration decoupage. The disadvantages are a decrease of usable area, which is important for a small-sized food, so the embodiment is used mainly in spacious rooms. For emergency access to the communications device is prohibited from fixed structures.
Fabrication begins with mounting frame, which is quite a lot of options. Selected depending on the intended size and possible extra elements. Pipes are not always close completely, sometimes only a certain section. The frame is mounted separately or built into furniture. In some cases, make the false wall to hide all the unsightly places. In addition to the metal profile is permissible to use wooden slats.
The box is installed in several steps:
- Calculate the design dimensions. Width should be easily accessible for maintenance of equipment;
- Install the frame. Profile rail or fastened with screws to the wall after checking the level strictly vertical and horizontal position;
- Measure the finished design. Data transferred on a sheet of drywall and cut the workpiece;
- Fixed to the frame using screws and screwdriver. All irregularities, crevices zashpaklevyvayut or sealed with foam, cut residues after polymerization.
If the communication area are cranes or compounds of a blind boxes violate safety rules: the equipment must be always available. In this case, it is made removable, which complicates the design. As a more affordable option choosing a decorative panel that can easily be removed. Under it may also be a counter. In addition, this option allows you to make the box interior decoration, if the facade is lattice or patterned. For the production take workshops.
You can buy ready-made plastic box that is easy to install and remove, if necessary. He can make any color that will not violate the integrity of the interior space. it has the same essential drawback Like gypsum structure: takes space.
Hide trunk in the hallway can be in compliance with safety regulations. Typically the pipe tested under the ceiling, closing them tightly duct prohibited. Even if inspection hatches device may be a claim by the gas supplier, if the work carried out without coordination with them. The original solution - rather narrow shelf under the pipe, so that it is not viewed from the bottom. You can decorate with decorative elements or simply apply a coat of paint.
As a furniture front cover gas tube
The use of furniture to hide the gas communications, the most perfect, but it is not always an easy way. Pipes, if they are arranged horizontally, hidden in wall units. With vertical placement of canisters used. Independent production of quality furniture available to masters who have professional skills. With a strong desire can be made with his hands using a jigsaw and subsequent decoration.
In most cases, using ready-made design or order in the workshops. In a china cabinet with factory remove the rear wall and hang them without making cuts in the walls. Made on special order furniture allows for communication configuration, there are hidden all the pipes and gas appliances. The advantage of this option is that the entire equipment have permanent access, and if the kitchen area is limited, the cabinets used for its intended purpose.
Makeshift structure made of relatively strong materials, such as plywood, particle board, which will be installed on their door. For it needs mounted hinges and handles. In the side walls fold beneath selected protrusions of the cover. In the places where the pipes and hoses mark out a place under the hole and cut. Collect structure glue and screws, after which the finished product is hung on a wall.
In some apartments the pipeline is placed horizontally at a low altitude. In such a case, there arises a problem such as the sew line. Her hide under the table, which is made by yourself or bought. To gain access to the valve handle is extended.
How to avoid mistakes - advice masters
In order to avoid unpleasant consequences as a result of independent action with gas utilities, the possible penalties, do not forget about safety. Before you become familiar with the rules, to planned actions do not contradict them.
Requirements are not many, will not be difficult to adhere to:
- mounting of any products, including the option of roof rail, it is carried out on the wall, in any case not on the tube;
- all designs are carried out, or detachable with a door panel provides quick access to tools;
- blind ducts, which can accumulate the gas leakage is prohibited;
- geyser hides behind the casing while ensuring powerful ventilation;
- are allowed to use all materials, except gypsum.
