Stove-burzhuyka - the right choice

Who does not know what furnace-burzhujki? For a dacha located far from electrical and gas communications, this is probably the most optimal, if not the only, option. The fame of such stoves is huge. The man who first encountered the problem of heating the housing, located outside the benefits of civilization, immediately thinks about buying such a stove. This article is designed to answer the most frequently asked questions when choosing a stove type "burzhuyka."

The furnace-burzhujka should possess several obligatory qualities, namely: quickly to warm up a premise and to keep heat as much as possible long. Such properties of each individual furnace are achieved due to its design and the material from which it is made. In addition, the principle of functioning of the fuel cell also affects fuel consumption.

It will also be absolutely superfluous if the device will provide an opportunity to cook food. Such a useful function, as a rule, has cast-iron stoves-burzhujki. They are very popular.

The furnace-burzhujka works on fire wood, peat or fuel briquettes, sometimes on a brown coal. The use of coal as a fuel in most structures is impossible, because because of its high temperature of combustion, the furnace can simply collapse.

Metal stoves are made of cast iron and steel, and by design they are divided into single-chamber and two-chamber.

In the first case, the furnace-burzhuyka is an iron box with a pipe, it quickly heats up and cools down just as quickly. Its advantages are cheapness and mobility.

Two-chamber metal stoves have a more complex design. Inside, they are divided into two sections, and the combustion products, before they fly out into the pipe, warm up the second chamber. Such a furnace is much more efficient than the first, as it gives more heat and saves fuel. In addition, the design can be used so-called heat accumulators, which will further increase the heat output after fuel burn-up, as well as all kinds of devices that control the supply of air to the furnace, respectively, and the burning rate.

Before choosing a stove, you should clearly represent the architectural features of the house or room in which it will be installed. This should not be neglected . After all, this greatly depends on how effective the stove-burger will be, whether it will be possible to impose it with a brick, which at times will increase the heat transfer, and what kind of heat ventilation exists in the house. By the latter is meant the heat exchange between the rooms of the house. It is usual - from top to bottom (it depends solely on the architecture of the structure), but it is mandatory when, say, small fans are installed near the ceiling (between rooms), which ensure compulsory circulation of warm air. Knowledge of the features of the heated object will allow you to accurately determine the required capacity of the metal stove.

In the end, we note the differences of domestic metal stoves from foreign analogues. Foreign burzhuyki also made of cast iron and steel, but they attach great importance to appearance. As a consequence, their design is not comparable to ours. In addition, all furnaces have high-quality air flow control devices on the doors, which allows for perfect control of the flame (from maximum to smoldering). Of course, such products are much more expensive.
