Boiler room with hot water boilers - the basic principle of operation
The principle of operation of a boiler room with hot water boilers is as follows: water is heated inside the structure, however, there are cases when the temperature rises due to the coolant. In addition, the device is equipped with built-in pumps, which are necessary for constant circulation. The liquid flows through the pipes and enters the radiator (when water gets there, it cools down and returns in the opposite direction - return line) or into the heating boiler (supply). The latter of them specifically provides for regulation of the duration of operation, as well as temperature.

When designing, it is recommended to take closed and open types of heating networks as a basis. The second of them is considered a budget option in the initial stages, but not during the work process - this should be taken into account. However, for our case, the second of these types is more suitable. This is due to the almost exact absence of leakage due to the tightness of the device. The circuit uses a forced circulation method of coolant using a pump designed for this purpose. In addition, accordingly, the design consists of a boiler. It provides heat not only to the heating system, but also to the water heating circuit. For its location, it is necessary to understand the choice of site.
There are two options: floor and wall. The latter are most often installed in the kitchen, as well as in the hallway, because they do not take up much space, although they include many components. The main disadvantage is the weak power, but for a small volume it will be enough. So, to assemble a boiler room yourself, you can follow the steps below:
- First you need to lay a chimney, sewerage, electrical wiring and system main.
- Next, finish with non-combustible materials, accordingly, taking into account all the requirements of SNiP.
- Install and install a boiler or boiler in the location of your choice and do not forget about the expansion tank.
General Features
ATTENTION! To ensure smooth operation, it is advisable to consider the following aspects:
- The room where the unit is located requires the presence of a window or door that opens outward.
- Despite the importance of the area, it is permissible to construct the space with boilers in quantities of more than 2 units.
- Compliance with fire safety requirements is mandatory. This also applies to the use of various materials. For example, when finishing you need to use plaster or tiles - they will be non-combustible elements.
- In addition, the ventilation, chimney and equipment must be similar. Because it is very important that air masses move at least three times a day.
Tips for use
When using the device, it is necessary to both install it correctly and interact with it, taking special precautions. In another situation, there is a high risk of serious problems, namely a fire or even an explosion. The points listed below are exactly what is needed to ensure safety during operation.
- As already mentioned in the article, it is necessary to have a window - natural ventilation inside the room.
- To maintain a special service, you should take into account the distance at which the boiler and furniture should be located (more than 0.7 meters in width).
If you use a floor-standing device for work, you should attach a backing made of strong and also non-flammable material to it.
