Heating homes with electricity - the most economical way

Most private houses They have an impressive area and the fact that Russian non-resort country where summer reigns all year round, this same area we have to somehow be heated in the winter. For these purposes, there are a variety of arsenal heating systemsBut because of the large volumes of many variations much it costs a pretty penny. If the correct approach to this issue, it appears that House heating electricity - the most economical way.

Types of electric heating private houses

Heating by electricity can be divided into several categories: point, common combination. Hereinafter, detailed operation principles of the variety and appliances such plan.

Spot heating using heaters

The domestic market can offer a huge range in the segment heaters. The pricing policy will allow to select the model as the economy and premium units. To avoid confusion in the embodiments, they are divided into subgroups:

• Convection heaters. Based on the needle or x-shaped TENah.

The housing of these devices are mainly made of stainless steel, but there are models that are made of glass or stone. The geometry of the box assumes the presence of holes for air intake grilles for the bottom and eject hot stream at the top.

Such devices are equipped with all sorts of sensors and regulators. That provides complete protection against overheating, stall, short circuit and so on. D. Some specimens possess additional benefits: opening and closing timer, Electronic control, touch screen, remote control, moisture protection, dust protection, and so on.

Installation can be done on the wall, a plinth zone or floor using wheels.

• Heat fans. Very comfortable and easy to use, have small dimensions and low weight. Standard power, which has most of heaters 2kW, they are sufficient to heat a small room for only 10 minutes.

The device thanks to the fan, which blows air onto a heated coil, and that in turn, heats the stream and sends it to the room. Such devices have several disadvantages, such as: air drying, While blowing warm, high consumption of electricity.

In stores you can find machines with additions in the form of an ionizer, sleep timer, thermostat. Electric heating is the most economical without boiler.

• Infrared heaters. They have a lot of advantages, which provides comfort during their operation. Wonderful guided heat generated by the infrared emitter will be able to fully warm you not only indoors but also outdoors.

The design is concave aluminum reflector with a special coating zharoottalkivayuschim which focuses and directs all the heat energy in a certain direction. There are models that have a moving base, which provides heating for 90, 180 or 360 degrees.

• Oil heaters. old friend radiatorWhich could warm more than one generation of families. His ability to get hotter than 100 degrees, while spending a reasonable amount of energy, has won many fans. Mineral oil, which is inside the heater does not expand when strong heating via electrical heating element, which increases the operating temperature.

modern heaters such a plan are equipped with a compact design, convenient wheels, wide temperature setting functionality, remote controls and much more. The obvious disadvantage is the heavy weight, but the presence of wheels facilitates movement appliance.

• heat pumps. They were invented in the first half of the XVIII century, but a lot of publicity they received in the XXI century. The principle of operation is the natural generation of heat (land, water, air), by means of which inside the pump refrigerant passes from the gaseous to the liquid phase. This process is accompanied by liberation of heat, which is transferred coolantWe are moving along the heating system.

For operation of the unit requires approximately 1 kW of electricity at an average heat output of 4.5 kW. You are probably thinking that the heat pump for heating with electricity at home - nowhere cheaper? Yes, but there is a big BUT, the cost of equipment and installation of the entire system will cost about five thousand euros.

Heating electric boilers

First of all this kind of boilers the most environmentally friendly in respect of emissions. they differ from the gas equipment that their installation does not require air shaft and a gas pipeline. Enough to have electricity supply, but there are some nuances. To understand them, you need to know the principle of the calculation of the required power.

There is a median parameter relations: 1 kW of power for 20 m3 of space (with a ceiling height of up to 2.7 meters). According to this calculation it is necessary to calculate the required power of the boiler for heating with electricity at home. The most economical way to purchase the boiler - it is to choose the domestic manufacturer.

Note! Consider the fact that the maximum power provided by electric boilers manufacturers for 220 networks - it is 6 kW. That is, the house area should not exceed 120 m3, which is about 47 m2. Otherwise, you will need 3-phase (380V).

electric boilers There are wall-mounted and floor standing, single-circuit and double-circuit. The principle of heating water is the same. Inside the heater is a heat exchanger which heats through the coil water flow, it drives the circulation pump mounted on the front of the boiler inlet pipe. In the presence of the second circuit is fed to the boiler separate conduit. Incoming water comes from water supply pipeAnd outgoing connects to household taps in the house. To the water is not overheated inside the boiler, when the valve is closed, there is a mini-boiler. When the water in the boiler is heated to a certain temperature, the heating element of the second circuit is disabled.

According to the level of power consumption, these boilers are not especially cheap, but in the case of additional equipment which automatically controls the whole system, the cost can be reduced by 20-30%.

As for the coolant, there is only distilled water should be used or antifreeze. In the case of using the electrode boiler coolant should consist of saline. On this type of boiler you can find out at the end.

Combined heating types

Here, there is no special equipment, which would be called a combination. Mixed achieved by combining several types of heating devices in one working body. For example, the primary home heating is solid fuel boilerAnd electrical works for procurement underfloor heating. Or in the house main electrical machine, and a winter garden and veranda heated by infrared heaters. Well, quite elegantly, when in the home are three different boiler gas, on the wood and electric (with heating even war will not leave residents without heat).

Combine can not only heaters, but also sources of energy. This is done by installing a windmill or solar.

The description of popular models and for heating systems

For a full definition of the most profitable models need to analyze a ton of material about the characteristics and performance indicators heat. Of course, on the Internet there are a large number of TOPs, describing the most popular models in its heaters segment (here represented by one of the best top 10 electric heaters), but in fact the choice can be limit. This is done by the following criteria:

• Necessary power;
• Wiring method;
• Class security protection;
• Required additional functions;
• Case dimensions;
• Design;
• The budget for the purchase;

Making a list, you can easily select the appropriate option.

Overview of electric boilers for heating private houses: the prices for the most popular models

Here is a list of the most popular manufacturers who have distinguished themselves by excellent quality and superior performance. Heating in a private home electric boiler (the value in the table below) is considered an alternative in the absence of the gas pipe.

Heating homes with electricity. The most economical way for you

All explanations about the savings will be considered on the example of two-storey houseWhich has an area of ​​100 m2.

1. Calculation of the cubic capacity of the room. With 100 squares they need to multiply by the height of the ceiling, for example, 2.7 meters, turns 270 m3. This building has warmed an average degree, then you need to throw another 10 percent to power. Collecting parameters together, the following result is obtained (270/20) + 10% = 15 kW
2. Purchase of equipment. Pipes, valves, fittings, radiators and other nonsense will cost about 30,000 rubles. As for the boiler, then assuming that the house no 380, is recommended to buy two electrode boiler with a capacity of 7 kW each. The cost of an average of 15,000 rubles.

   

3. Management of the entire system. We'll have to buy an electronic controller with a full meat. Planning the schedule of the boilers for the week ahead, temperature adjustment boiler depending on the weather on the street and a lot of other useful functions. The cost of this miracle of technology about 10,000 rubles.

   

4. installation costs. Depending on the region of residence cost varies, but on average, 30 percent of the entire system.
5. Optional but not mandatory electricity. Solar panels, which power of 3 kW, will cost you 80,000 rubles.

   

What was the result? The total cost without solar 70,000 rubles. Power consumption 14 kW / h per day of the two boilers with the outdoor temperature of -10, the consumption will be about 90 kW / day. The cost of a kilowatt light 5.38 rubles, then 90h5.38h30 = 14526 rubles per month. If we assume that the established solar panels, the amount of the costs will be 11,500 rubles.

This is one of hundreds of options resettlement housing heatingWhat to choose up to you.

Note! To understand how to heat a house with electricity economically, you need to know some tricks. One of them is the installation of trohtarifnogo counter.

Overview of the latest solutions for electrical heating systems

Immediately it should be noted that all the latest developments are very expensive, but they have a good trend, they quickly pay for themselves.

• solar collectorsThat the water is heated. These panels are placed on the roofs of houses on the sunny side. Very effectively show themselves in sunny regions. They have the high efficiency and the highest level of environmental performance. A disadvantage is the inability to operate in the dark. In most cases, they are installed as a an alternative source of heat.

• Geleosistemy. Heat pumps which suck heat from the environment (air, land and water), and pass it to the heat carrier. Excellent heating option, but is very expensive initially. The equipment takes up space. The payback period of 2 years.

• Infrared film for sex, Walls and ceiling. The innovative development. Material is mounted under screed and plaster any surface, good warm due to the scale ohvachivaemoy plane. The downside is the increased electricity consumption and that the laying of the heating can be carried out only on the interior finishing stage at home repairs.

• electrode boilers, intended for heating private houses (Reviews of the owners, and the approximate prices have in many forums and websites). Small device as a pipe, heats the water flowing through. Fluid must contain salt. The charged particles are accelerated to high speed within the pipe and its friction warm water. Very efficient technology. Negative nuance is a discrepancy with the power declared by the manufacturer of heating area.

findings

Heating homes with electricity - the most cost-effective way only if you approach it wisely. Investing more money when installing the units, you will save in the future bank. Especially in the present-day world where the pollution level exceeds the limit, the use of environmentally friendly technologies is a very important moment for you and for future generations.
