Furnaces of long burning for a summer residence

To the dacha was comfortable not only in summer, but also in winter cold, it is necessary to equip it with heating equipment that would maintain the optimum temperature. The presence of a long-burning stove will solve the problem of warmth and comfort in the house.

Features of long-burning furnaces for heating dacha

The device is slightly different from the usual models. Such a furnace has a special design, in which the internal combustion chamber consists of 2 compartments. The lower compartment is used for fuel combustion in conditions of limited supply of oxygen, so its use is extremely economical.

In the upper compartment there are injectors and an injector, which operates in the afterburning mode. That is, fuel in such a furnace is slowly smoldering, due to what it suffices for a very long time.

Another name for such heating equipment is gas-generator equipment. And this is due to its principle of action: in it, the flow of air into the furnace is blocked by its tightness, so that the wood burns slowly. As a result, under high temperature, it decomposes into 2 components - pyrolysis gas and coke (charcoal). And in the furnace work both these components are used, so that its efficiency is quite high.

Long-burning furnaces can work on wood or wood waste - sawdust. Also, coal and peat are among the solid fuels on which this equipment can operate. There are models that run on liquid fuel, but it is preferable to use dry kilns.

Advantages and disadvantages of long-burning furnaces for cottages

The advantages of such equipment include the following:

1. Fuel for the furnace is relatively cheap, especially since its consumption is economical. As a result, the operation of the furnace can be characterized as economically advantageous.
2. Serving such an oven is extremely simple. At full load it functions independently for a long time.
3. Since the operation of the furnace is based on the influx of air, the design provides for the presence of traction and outflow of exhaust gases. This makes the operation of the furnace safe.
4. In the market of modern stove equipment there are models of interesting design and with compact dimensions, so that you can fit it into your design very even harmoniously.
5. Heating of the room with prolonged burning of the furnace occurs cyclically, that is, in the room at first cool, then warmer, even hotter. It is believed that this is the best way to affect the human body.

The disadvantages of a long-burning furnace include the following:

1. Changes in temperature in the room can negatively affect the condition of furniture, books and other furnishings.
2. To store firewood for the oven you need to equip a separate shed.
3. It is possible to heat such an oven only with a relatively small area.
4. For the oven, you need to equip the chimney, strictly following the rules and regulations.

How to choose a long-burning furnace for dacha?

When choosing the heating equipment, you need first to calculate the area of ​​the premises, its financial capabilities, to consider the wishes for the design of the furnace, its technical and functional features.

It is very important to immediately calculate what is the maximum area and time of heating for a particular equipment. So, the oven of different equipment can heat from 80 to 250 square meters.

Depending on the time of decay of one batch of fuel, the kilns come with a minimum heating time (3-4 hours), with an average (6-8 hours) and with a maximum time (10 hours or more).

In addition, the furnace itself can be made of different materials: steel, cast iron or bricks. Also you need to decide on what fuel your furnace will work - solid or liquid. Universal models have not yet been invented.

If you plan to install a stove in the kitchen , you can consider buying a model with a hob.
