In addition to traditional stone ovens, recently all heating and cooking stoves of long burning come into use more. Thanks to their efficient operation and compact, neat shape, they are not only able to heat a room up to 70—90 sq. meters, but also save space by expanding the living space, subject to the dismantling of the old brick oven.
Such furnaces are no worse than stone ones for a long time retaining heat in the house, since heat transfer from them occurs not only during combustion, but also after complete combustion of fuel from heated and long-cooling walls. The long burning stove consumes a small amount of fuel and is also very economical in this sense.
Cast iron cooking stoves can be distinguished as a separate subspecies. Due to the unique properties of heat transfer, the speed of heating and cooling of cast iron, you will get much more convenience in using such a furnace. Of course, there are also disadvantages, if you suddenly accidentally knock over a pot of cold water on a heated cast-iron stove - the metal can instantly crack. This of course needs to be tried, but no one is safe from this and you should know about it! There are also combined models in which the cast-iron firebox after the air gap is covered with a steel box, which will protect it from sudden cooling and, as a result, destruction.

The design and operation of the furnace
The availability of fuel for long-burning stoves makes them indispensable in some cases when it is impossible to lay a gas pipeline, and in some cases, there are no electrical networks. It is not bad to have such a stove in a private house and as a safety net, in case of interruptions in the supply of "blue" fuel or frequent voltage drops on power lines, or on spring-autumn a period when there is an opportunity to save on fairly expensive energy sources.
Many heating and cooking stoves have without grate construction, the fire in which is regulated by a special device. The body of the furnace is designed in such a way that the heat is released into the room as much as possible and is released into the atmosphere to a minimum. This effect was achieved due to the special structure of the case and its surface area, which is about, about 1.6 sq. meters.
Although the stove was originally intended for cottages in the country, it is quite fit and for small private houses, as it corresponds everyone heating requirements:
- comfortable door for laying and kindling the furnace;
- in flow 50—Active combustion takes place for 60 minutes, and during this time you can cook food and heat the room;
- Further, the furnace is switched to the fuel smoldering mode, which lasts 6—12 hours, depending on the amount of firewood laid. At this time, the case acts as a heated battery, the temperature of which reaches from 80 to 100 degrees..
To perform all these necessary functions, you only need one bookmark of firewood.
- In the design of the unit, an upper ignition is arranged, and firewood is laid top to bottom, deeply located in the furnace body. The burning of firewood does not occur from the bottom up, as in conventional stoves, but from the top down, which makes the process much longer, but means, there is a large heat transfer.
With this ignition, only the top layer of firewood lights up, spreading heat up and to the sides. — this is gives opportunity immediately to begin cooking food. In structures where the fuel is ignited from below, the top layer of firewood, creating a protective screen for the fire, does not gives immediately start heating the oven. When it heats up, it flares up immediately and quickly burns out, so you need to constantly add firewood.
- To supply air to the combustion area in the furnace, a special system is equipped, controlled automatically. It promotes a slow and uniform flow of oxygen and eliminates the appearance of reverse thrust.
- For ensure good draft and in order to avoid smoke in the rooms, the furnace system has a built-in anti-smoke device.
- The oven door is most often equipped with refractory glass installed hermetically.. It is blown with air, so combustion products do not collect on its inner surface.
- The door also closes hermetically., thanks to special seal that ensures perfect her close to the tunnel.
Often such heating and cooking appliances are considered convective, but this is not entirely right, since the main heat given into the room with the help of radiation, which heats the walls and floors of the rooms. Rather ovens fit title — heat-radiating.
Furnace Advantages
In these types of furnaces, the number of advantages is much greater than the disadvantages.You can list the main ones:
- high processNT KPD;
- bake able to heat a fairly large area;
- the cooking function will allow not only to warm the kettle, but also to cook hot food;
- economy — duration of work gives the ability to warm the room up to twelve hours, with one laying of firewood, weighing 15—17 kilograms;
- a variety of designs of manufactured models - it fits easily into any interior;
- light transportation and speed of installation of the unit;
- durability and reliability instrument.
The disadvantages of metal furnaces usually include the following points:
- The need to comply with strict safety regulations for the installation of the furnace and chimney systems;
- to to achieve the desired effect, it is necessary to use the necessary high-quality fuel provided specifically for this model;
- complex oven system.
Selecting a furnace model by fuel
It should be noted that different models of long-burning heating and cooking stoves are produced using various types fuel — it can be natural gas, liquid or solid fuel (firewood, coal, briquettes, etc.) That's whywhen choosing a unit model, you need to rely on the most widespread and accessible fuel in the region. This is the most important technical condition when buying a heating device. If choice produced it is reasonable, then the efficiency of the furnace will be at its best - it will uninterruptedly provide the house with heat.
Unit installation
Buying this oven her must be properly installed, only then it will work safely for many years. What needs to be done for this?
- If the floor in the room is enough reliable, then fundament dlI don't do the assembly have to. But equip non-combustible floor flat surface is necessary — it can be ceramic tiles, stone and etc. It is desirable that a non-combustible floor covering occupy the area in front of the firebox, about half a metre.
Scheme in full gives an idea of \u200b\u200bthe correct location of the furnace in relation to the walls and clearly shows what the podium should be for the entire structure.
- Next thing to do — this is to install protective heat-resistant screens on the walls around the furnace. Here you can use non-combustible drywall, metal sheet, tile, brick or masonry.
- A very important step is the installation chimney systems. It can pass inside the building, and then through the attic floor and roof. Another option would be to exit the pipe through the wall and the location her outdoors vertically parallel to the wall.
On the given The picture clearly shows the location. chimney pipes, how inside the building, and on the outer wall of the house.
