What should be the device of a chimney in a bathhouse or a private house?

Quite often today there is a question about what should be the device of chimneys in a bathhouse or a private house, and this is due, above all, to the fact that people want to live in their country cottage in complete comfort.

Meanwhile, the chimney is the most important component of the heating system of the whole building and how it will be arranged depends in many ways on the temperature regime in the house in the winter season.

Today you can build a chimney from a variety of building materials, and each will have both its pluses and minuses.

Thanks to it, the necessary removal of harmful combustion products of fuel will be ensured, the required thrust is necessary to ensure that fresh air enters the furnace.

With the need to equip the chimney in a bathhouse or a private house-building will collide as the owners of an ordinary stove on wood, and owners of a gas or solid fuel boiler.

Of course, for each type of heating device is suitable for a certain type of chimney, but their operation principle and the device are similar.

Chimneys made of bricks or stainless steel are the most widely used, however, so-called sandwich chimneys, which are in no way inferior to the more traditional ones, are gaining popularity.

Types, types of chimneys

The device of a chimney of a furnace in a bathhouse in a private house can be divided into external or internal.

In addition, the stovepipe is not much different in design from those designed for fireplaces.

There are differences when the pipe is equipped for gas equipment, in this case it can be made of stainless steel, and also be of a coaxial type and be in the wall, and not be placed on the roof.

In turn, the stovepipe, which is intended for fireplaces, must be of vertical through passage and pass through the roof.

A variety of components can serve as a material for making pipes in a bath and a private house. So, it can be assembled from bricks, sandwich pipes, ceramics, and also stainless steel.

The most frequently used for furnaces in a bath or a house are used chimneys made of brick and sandwich-pipes.

At the same time chimneys for a gas boiler, as a rule, collect coaxial type with an outlet in the wall, as well as stainless steel.

Regardless of the type and material used, the pipe assembly must be designed to ensure that all harmful products that result from the combustion of the fuel used are effectively drained.

The oven chimney of sandwich-pipes, bricks, stainless steel or coaxial type with the exit of the pipe through the wall, must necessarily withstand high temperatures and be resistant to moisture.

In addition, it should not be deformed and destroyed under the influence of various aggressive components, for example sulfuric acid.

A mandatory requirement for chimneys for stoves and chimneys in a private house, in a bathhouse, as well as for gas boilers, is the availability of the necessary traction.

There are specially designed for chimneys of different types of norms, including those for coaxial, which must be taken into account.

Special attention should be paid to safety if a chimney is to be installed in a wooden house.

In this case, the chimney going from the furnace to the roof, it is better to lay out a special brick, which has a high fire resistance.

When selecting the flue material, first of all, consider the type of heating equipment installed in the house or bath room.

So, for a gas boiler, it is clearly better to choose a coaxial type that passes through the chimney wall, or be made of stainless steel.

For an oven in a bath room or house, as well as for fireplaces, it can be kicked out of bricks or made from sandwich pipes. In this case, it will pass through the roof.

Also, when selecting material for the chimney, many other parameters should be taken into account. It will be necessary to pay attention to the temperature of the smoke gases, the amount of condensate formed, and the pressure.

Based on all these data, the size of the bore hole and the wall thickness are calculated.

In any case, the chimney device must be built according to all the rules and comply with generally accepted requirements.

Installing a chimney for an

oven For an oven that is located in a bath room or house, it is best to make a brick-type chimney or a sandwich tubing.

In both cases, it is necessary to calculate the size of the bore hole before starting the work and outline the sequence of actions.

Work on the arrangement of the pipe should start from the bottom up, while strictly controlling the connection of each node in the event that it is assembled from pipes.

Mount them to the wall in a horizontal position in increments of two meters. When the chimney is made of steel, its possible deformation under the influence of high temperatures should be taken into account.

When passing a pipe through the roof, a slight deviation should be made, which is then sealed and compacted.

In the case when the pipe will be made of bricks, its masonry starts from the top of the furnace. To begin with, a vertical pipe is laid on the vertical surface of the furnace.

In this case the masonry is made on the principle of walls, however, a cement-clay mortar is used. Each seam between the rows of bricks is sealed as thoroughly and tightly as possible.

In addition, only solid stone should be used during operation.

In the place where the pipe to be constructed will pass through the roof, a dense waterproofing of the butt joint should be made.

The entire chimney flue must be finished with the appropriate material at the final stage. For this purpose, an otter or sheets of steel are suitable that can withstand high temperatures.

In turn, the chimney furnace made of sandwich pipes requires certain preparatory work before the installation.

As it passes through the ceiling of the ceiling, all space in this area must be carefully insulated, for example, with mineral wool.

For this, in the place through which the chimney will pass, it is necessary to make a marking and carefully make a hole of the required dimensions.

The insulation itself is then carried out. Installation of sandwich tubes starts from the bottom of the furnace surface.

Each internal pipe is inserted into the other during installation, in turn, the installation of external sandwich tubes in the reverse order, that is, they are worn on top of the previous one.

All sandwich pipe joints must be carefully sealed with a special compound that is able to withstand high temperatures.

Also, the chimney stove should be attached to the wall in increments of two meters. For the convenience of cleaning such a furnace chimney during operation, it is recommended to make a special window.

At the end of work, the pipe should be at a distance from the ridge on the roof at least one and a half meters.

Chimney installation for gas boiler

If the house plans to install gas equipment, the flue gas device for the gas boiler has several significant differences from the chimney.

If a stainless steel pipe is to be installed, it must be in a vertical position and pass through the roof.

When installing a chimney coaxial type, which uses a special double pipe, its output must pass through the wall.

It is also necessary to provide a container to which the condensate will form.

In addition, all connections should be made in such a way that the surface of the pipes does not have defects and is not deformed.

It is also necessary to provide and technological holes, through which it will be possible to clean the inner surface of the pipe.

The coaxial type chimney is built on the principle of "pipe in a pipe", one of which exits the combustion products, and the other provides the necessary thrust.

In its installation, in addition to the coaxial tubes themselves, tees and various adapters are also required, which can be purchased in specialized stores.

Installation begins with fastening the pipe directly to the boiler itself. The pipe itself should rise upwards from the gas unit to a height of up to one and a half meters.

If necessary, this chimney can be extended by using a special bend. Further in the wall is made a hole of the necessary size, in which the outlet neck is firmly fixed.

Connect the pipes to each other using clamps.

At the final stage of the work, it is necessary to connect the pipe from the boiler and the outlet mouth to each other, and the outlet pipe must have a minimum slope, due to which moisture will not accumulate in the interior of the chimney.

Before installing the chimney for gas equipment in stainless steel, you should precisely determine the optimum size of the pipe bore.

After this, make a marking of the place where the outlet pipe will be located and make a hole of the appropriate dimensions along its contours.

The whole area in the area of ​​the ceiling, where the pipe will pass, should be carefully insulated, after which it is necessary to install the outlet pipe itself.

Then follows a piece of stainless steel pipe to attach directly to the gas equipment itself.

After that they start assembling the chimney, by fastening all the parts of pipes together. In this way, it is necessary to connect the outlet pipe and the boiler to each other.

For a stronger connection, the pipe structure should also be attached to the wall. In addition, all joints must be treated with a special compound to ensure their maximum tightness.

For the arrangement of any type of chimney, its passage through the roof surface should be selected taking into account the slope of the roof itself.

Special attention should be given to the interconnection of all pipes, and also to ensure that the contact surfaces of the pipes and the structure of the house are carefully insulated.

If all work is done correctly and in accordance with the technology, the chimney device and its operation problems will not arise.
