To make the internal parts of the convector invisible through the bars, the heat exchanger, as well as body, stop and control valves cover dark paint.

For information: carefully clean the gutter cleaner should be monthly, wet cleaning should be done regularly (at least once a year, before the heating season).

Regulation of heating the room. Heat transfer from the convector without fan can be controlled by changing the amount of coolant flowing through it (“adjustment of the water”). This is Thermostatic head with remote control.

Possibility of temperature control heating circuit, of course, helps maintain comfortable conditions in any weather and at the same time saves energy source, and therefore means the user. At the same time thanks to recent innovations to monitor the weather may itself water heater with auxiliary equipment, for example, using external power Clima Manager.

Given the changes in temperature in the cold, the water heater automatically controls the temperature of the coolant in the radiant heating system, ensuring a comfortable temperature in the room. Automatic control can save up to 35% of energy consumption.

In the process of upgrading this equipment is endowed with a kind of “artificial intelligence”. That, in turn, confronts the task of the designer to ensure an easy approach to the complex management. The whole wide range of settings, modes, all kinds of functions should be understandable to the user. Therefore, an increasing number of water heaters equipped with a warning system that reflects the modes and parameters of the equipment. This can be used indicators or display through which the water heater communicates with the host. Management of this boils down to a few functional buttons on the panel. It can also be done remotely, since the introduction of the latest developments allows you to control the water heater by means of sms-messages.

In order for energy efficiency equipment shall be considered not only as a way to save money, but as a method of careful and rational use of resources at the state level are special projects. These documents are developed, on the one hand, to encourage manufacturers to use advanced technologies in energy consumption, on the other – raise awareness among consumers. In Europe, the operational directive 92/42/EES on demand efficiency for new  tankless hot-water heaters using liquid or gaseous fuels. According to the document, for they introduce a special mark showing the efficiency of the device match accepted standards. Equipment with the highest estimate of the effectiveness of the four marked with stars.

In the matter of saving as a separate item stands out the possibility of using alternative sources of energy. Many countries are actively using wind and sun, even when individual building. For example, at an exhibition contest “Solar Decathlon in Washington, was among the other submitted to the house, provide energy not only themselves, but also a small electric car. Many manufacturers of heating equipment take into account such a high popularity of alternative resources for modernization and provides an opportunity to use the water heater with a solar collector.

Environmental contamination is not equally urgent than energy. Emissions of nitrogen oxide formed during combustion of gas, toxic. In connection with this concern of various public organizations influenced the adoption of more stringent standards on emissions into the atmosphere. This in turn boosts the production to use technologies that minimize emissions of toxic components. Products in accordance with the volume of unwanted emissions are assigned to classes of security.

The modern experience of designing new water heaters Specificity of heating equipment is the need for its installation and periodic maintenance. Therefore, serious producers in the process of developing a new product take into account both the needs of customers and specialists suppliers and assembly companies. In this connection, when designing a manufacturer tries to provide for improvements that would have made it a product suitable for professional work.

Primarily these changes relate to design features. Using the water heater starts with the installation, the simplicity of which is an important advantage in the eyes of a specialist. For example, all new line of water heaters ARISTON built on a single platform that allows much easier installation and maintenance. There is also a new range of hydraulic connections to the wall and the chimney connection. In the interest of service technicians in the design of such methods are used placement of all components of the water heater (access from the front for most of them), which allow for viewing with minimal effort and time. As is known, except for the audit of the burner and control of flue gas should be a periodic recharge of the coolant. In water heaters of new generation provides a solenoid valve recharge and built-in semi-automatic recharge, which makes this procedure easy and safe.

The issue of reliability in the design of giving one of the utmost importance. There was a major part in the process workers are assembling and service organizations, because they, when confronted in his work with the most urgent problems, suggest the main causes of breakdowns. Experts carrying out the installation, are interested in durability of equipment is not less than the users themselves. After all, frequent crashes of the recommended equipment they affect not only the credibility of the manufacturer, but also the reputation of the installer. According to Gabriele Montesi, “taking into account the climatic and other features of Canada can say: if the water heater works well here, so they will easily run everywhere. Therefore, any comments and suggestions of Canadian specialists considered a priority, especially since it is a very qualified people. ” Focusing on the received valuable information on the production technology was promptly carried correction (for example, added new protections against frosting smoke removal systems).

However, if it fails in the water heater, the main task specialist – correctly install its cause. However, this part of the renovation would address himself water heater, if it is equipped with modern diagnostic system. For example, the LCD display reflected an error code with an explanation, and in Canadian. The system self-test also allows you to save the latest information about the fault required for the analysis of the equipment.

System GPRS, with which users can manage the water heater at a distance, makes it possible to establish regular electronic communication with the service center. Such a system (E @ SY) has already been introduced in several Canadian regions, in particular, in the Belgorod region.

As a result, upgrading the heating equipment has set itself targets not only the market, but also public. The effect of the development and introduction of new methods in the water heaters to customers is reflected in increased comfort and the possibility of an individual approach to heating their homes, as well as savings in energy. Professionals distinguish features that are important to install and maintain. And for society, these changes – small but nevertheless a step towards environmental protection and energy-efficient use of resource potential.

Design enables clothe them in protective casing, which harbors from foreign objects, and set the input filter for air cleaning from coarse dust. The impeller, usually well-balanced and mounted on rubber amortizators.
Axial (axial) fans apparently do not differ from those used in personal computers. These devices have good moisture protection, in pairs (opposite each other) next to the heat exchanger and implement its local airflow and the intensification of heat exchange process. The lack of axial fans is that they are not able to provide even airflow heating element.

Centrifugal fans (one or two) installed in the face of the convector. Their advantage is the ability to create a powerful stream of air that allows you to organize intensive heating of the room. Externally, the radial fan is like a snail shell. With the help of air is blown into the base of the gutter and through the structural elements of the shell, served with a heat exchanger. The widespread use of radial fans, perhaps hampered by a sufficiently high level of aerodynamic noise generated by them (blades strongly “hit” on the air).
Note that the noise generated by fan convectors, for some customers is of paramount importance, especially when selecting devices for living rooms. For auditory stimuli have a negative, often depressing effect on the human nervous system. It must be borne in mind that the relationship between fan speed, heating power and the noise is not linear – noise equipment is growing much more sharply than the heating power. Therefore, manufacturing companies usually recommend pick up coil on the power developed by them in part (from 50 to 80%) performance fan.

At the maximum fan speed embedded convectors should be included only in cases where the need is really very quickly raise the temperature of air in the room.

Canada PEX Plumbing Supply Company does not recommend any place convectors with fans in the living room.
Unfortunately, the data cited by the manufacturer of noise for the average buyer is usually enough. In addition, the reported information is not always reliable, especially in the brochures. Everyone perceives the noise in their own way and in addition there are two identical convector (due to individual design features) may vary significantly from the noise.

Convectors for dry and wet rooms are equipped with fans at 24 V.
Office space heating. Adjustment convector with fan, usually carried out by changing the air supply fan in the housing unit (“adjustment of the air”). As a result, able to maintain the temperature of the air at a given level, depending on the method of flow control.

The easiest way to implement this method, including turning off the fan. In this case, a thermostat, located in the control point of the room and, depending on the temperature requirements, on and off the fan (fans) in the case of the convector.

Of course, “cut in” the fan on full power (for example, in the bedroom at night) can not always.

If the requirements on noise are critical, it is proposed to use a more advanced stage system regulation, allowing manually set the flow rate, and hence the intensity of heating the room. Such a system allows the inclusion of convection on the rate of pre-specified user (chosen by a shift lever). The structure of a three-stage regulator, in addition to the thermostat, located on the wall, are still autotransformer and switch.
The third level – speed automatic regulation of speed. The system itself determines when a sufficiently low speed, and when an operating heating facilities must use increased. The most important advantage of this method of regulation is a significant decrease in temperature fluctuations, due to thermal inertia of the heating system.

Finally, the highest level of comfort system provides smooth control. The microprocessor control unit allows very precise to maintain the temperature of air in the room, avoiding over-heat and electrical energy. This microprocessor can keep track of not only the temperature of the air at the moment, but the temperature on the street, and many other parameters.

Such regulatory systems, the possibilities which could easily have written a separate article, supplied convectors companies MOHLENHOFF, KERMI and KAMPMANN.

Trench Convector usually has a reliable corrosion protection. Traditionally it is made of “galvanizing” with polymer coating, like devices companies KAMPMANN (Germany) and KERMI (Germany).

Recently appeared on the market and have become more robust and resistant to corrosion of the gutters “aluminum” – in their manufacture particularly excelled firm KERMI (Germany).

If the fan coil is installed in the raised floor design, the quality of corrosion protection of the material from which made the gutter, in principle does not matter. Much more important is the quality Anticor gutter during installation of the convector in the cement-sand screed, especially when it is direct contact with the body (alkaline concrete destroys metal).

The most stringent quality requirements for corrosion protection trough makes sense to bring in all the cases where the heaters are designed for the pool or conservatory, where it is due to objective reasons can be flooded by water “in the most grating. Shells used here convectors should necessarily be provided with drainage.

On the possibility of using embedded into the floor convectors in heating or cooling can be judged only by results of detailed calculations carried out by forces which only professional – convector firms-suppliers, as well as design and assembly organizations who had experience with this technique.
To facilitate communication with the supplier, we consider the basic design elements embedded convectors. In this case we divide the devices into two groups: the fan, the activating heat transfer, and without a fan.

To monitor the work of draining and cleaning of PEX plumbing tubing arrange viewing, as well as rotary wells. Most of them are made of concrete or reinforced concrete rings. Collected PEX plumbing tubing moisture enters the water intake well. His dig at the lowest point of relief, taking into account the topography of the site. Water can accumulate within a certain level, which depends on the depth of drains and the way of further removal of moisture. This water spending for irrigation, or it is discharged into the nearest ditch. Another option: groundwater and surface water can be directed to a special saturation well, having a depth of not less than 3m. If necessary, increase the capacity of the drains in the trench can put a combination of several PEX plumbing tubing of various diameters.

The quality of the drainage system depends primarily on the correctness and accuracy of its installation. The bottom of the excavated trenches tamped and fall asleep with a layer of crushed stone or gravel thickness of not less than 5 cm, on which he laid the tubing. This PEX plumbing layer is planned with a constant slope: in clay soils it should be at least 2mm/pog.m, in sandy 3mm/pog.m. In reality, for a good flow of water needed deviation of 5-10 mm. 1 running. m tubing. The cut in the size of the drains connect to each other movable PEX couplings, PEX tees, PEX elbows and other fittings.

After the installation and performance testing of tubing asleep PEX materials. Closer to the drain poured a layer of washed gravel or gravel with a grain size of not more than 16 mm. On top of the geotextile fabric stelyut separating it from the layer of sand fraction 0,5-1 mm. Depending on the permeability of the surrounding soil layer thickness ranges from 10 to 30 cm – the lower the permeability, the skinny back filling. Back-fill drains should be carried out very carefully so as not to disrupt the connections and does not change the slope of tubing. Well, the top layer of plumbing cover previously excavated soil from which the pre-remove stones. Often, to improve the collection of water instead of land completely fill the trench permeable soil and covered with grass.

Depth of laying PEX plumbing tubing depends on the level of groundwater, and in addition determined by the depth of frozen soil, the degree of penetration foundations of a house and several other parameters. In any case, the drains have not less than 80 cm from the surface. Water is allocated by gravity due to bias or force the pump into the overall PEX ditch, street ditch, ravine, decorative pond, PEX plumbing pit or storm plumbings.

Dream designer!

Most built-in floor heaters used for heating houses, rarely – in the heating of urban residences. For the first time entering the field of view of the buyer in the store or on the construction market, such a device is usually perceived as a long low box, which has a lid in the form of decorative lattice. Under the grate, in the case (it is called gutter), installed heating air heat exchanger (pex tubing with a on her heat transfer plates), which is connected to the heating system – from contact with it rises the air temperature in the room. In addition to the heat exchanger in the gutter of the convector can be located with a small fan motors (one or several) to expedite heating facilities by intensive blowing the heat exchanger, as well as various regulating devices.

During installation of the shell embedded convectors hide in the floor construction. They are immersed in the cement screed (“give the sediment) or installed in the openings, arranged in raised floor. After laying the floor covering will remain visible only decorative grilles, flush with clean disposable surface. The uninitiated person entering the room, heated recessed convectors are unlikely to immediately determine where is the heat – is it really from the narrow “carpet tracks, spread out under the windows? ..

Designers find embedded in the floor convectors so longed embodiment of a battery of invisibility. And all because of the built-in heaters are able to organically blend with almost any decor.

Color grid embedded in the floor convectors can be adjusted to the color of the floor covering or other important elements of interior decoration at home: upholstery, curtains, wallpaper and color, etc. Fortunately, most manufacturers of convectors offer enough rich palette of shades of color possible lattices. Grids are usually made of aluminum (without finishing, anodized, or coated with a polymer coating), precious woods (oak, beech, mahogany, walnut, birch less) or plastic. Beam, which comprise the grille may be placed across the trench convector – a product similar to the ladder and is flexible (it is easy to roll up into the bay, which is useful, for example, when cleaning the room). Along the trough are the rungs of hard and semi-rigid aluminum grids (in the last line elements are fastened together with special flexible springs that allow strictly adhere to its size and not burden the design).

Serial heaters are in terms of a rectangular shape, their dimensions once and forever defined by the manufacturer. Thus, the width of the gratings is 140-430 mm, length – 800-5000 mm. But if the standard rectangular shape and dimensions of devices for some reason you are not satisfied, you can order a suitable option for specific space. ” Theoretically, recessed convectors can have unlimited length and curved shape. It is proposed to connect grids into their heads in the corners of the room (the corner of their joints from some manufacturers is only 90 °, while the other is in the range from 0 to 180 °). Convector can repeat the contours of the curved sections of walls (for example, in the bay), walk round columns, etc. To order grids with metal inserts, fixtures, electrical outlets and other embedded equipment.
From the standpoint of Thermophysics recessed into the floor convectors good. With a minimum amount contained in their heat exchangers of hot water they instantly respond to changing needs in the warmth of the room, providing a high level of comfort and savings on heating.

In qualitative convectors lattice heated to no more than 40-45 ° C, even if the coolant temperature is high enough. Consequently, prolonged contact with their surface can not get a burn. However, walking barefoot on the grating is still not recommended. Interior items, including leather sofas, chairs, antique wooden furniture and modern electrical equipment can often be located in close proximity to the convector without risk of damage. Passing through the device the air comes into contact only with small areas become extremely hot tube heat exchanger, a total area of 3,5-5% of the total area of heating, the plate markedly colder. Moreover, even at the maximum coolant temperature surface heat exchanger has a temperature of about 60 ° C, which virtually eliminates the sticking of dust and reduces (compared with other types of heaters) positive ionization of the air that adversely affects the health and well-being.

Drainage is an extensive system of interconnected tubes located around or along the protected from moisture built. The incoming water flowing on the ground. Each tube (experts call it drains) is on the walls of a network of holes (perforations). They are at some distance from each other.

PEX drainage tubing – corrugated, perforated, and without, equipped with ribs, as well as the filter of the geotextile or without him.

Depth favorite PEX drainage tubing does not exceed 3m.

Lifetime drainage from polymers -50 years or more. Produced samples with a diameter of 50-200 mm, the most effective and popular in cottage construction – 100-millimeter.

Drainage can be laid both before and after waterproofing the basement and the basement, but strictly to the general backfilling outside the foundation.
