Fireplace do it yourself

Design and temperature
When making a decision on the construction of the fireplace, it is necessary to proceed from the fact that these devices are not the means of heating the premises, since heat from them (from the fuel) proceeds only in the form of radiant energy and only during fuel burning, and 85-90% of heat without benefit Literally and figuratively flies into the pipe. Therefore, fireplaces are usually arranged in the halls, cabinets and rooms for ventilation and for recreation, limited fuel combustion times. Each fireplace, since it is constantly in the spotlight, there must be a decoration of the room. Therefore, before the construction, it is necessary to think about it in advance and determine the location. The finish of fireplaces is produced differently, but it is best to sneak them in the process of masonry with smooth or patterned tights. You can also be faced with colored glazed tiles.
Apply for facing the fireplace, the usual ceramic tile is undesirable, as it falls off over time.
The surface of the fireplaces can be left without finishing (finishing one seams) or to cover it with a completely lime or chalk (adhesive) solution, can also be used plaster. The material is suitable as for finishing stoves.
Door for pipeline
The inner structure of fireplaces is pretty simple: it consists of an open fuel, pipes and an intermediate device - a gas threshold, which prevents the spout of sparks and soot from the pipe from the atmosphere of rain moisture and snow. It is desirable to strengthen the metal sheet that does not leave for its limits. At the level of the sheet, it is necessary to provide a hole for cleaning accumulating soot. The hole must be sealed with the door.
Dimensions - strict and not very
Although most of the sizes of different elements of the fireplace are not categorical, because of which, probably, not to find a single pair of fireplaces, externally similar to each other, yet some of them have strictly mandatory parameters. The width of the gas threshold should be equal to the width of the pipe, and its protrusion should be on one straight line with anterior wall or more by 10-20 mm (in the figure it is shown the vertical dashed line).

The gas threshold is also in no case should not narrow the pipe, which warns the permissions of the fireplace. The pipe of the non-working fireplace should be reliably overlapping the flap, which, in order to preserve aesthetic species and reliable retention in the heat room, should be a rotating design.
How to increase heathotvatu
The walls of the fireplaces are desirable to withdraw in 0.5, and the pipes are 1-1.5 bricks (its height above the roof level should be within 1 m). Masonry brick applies ordinary and refractory. In both cases, it must be a good quality. Foundations of fireplaces must be reliable. Next to them is usually strengthened by a precious sheet of metal. Sometimes, to improve the thrust and prevents from entering the fireplace of atmospheric moisture and air flows, the craftsmen are installed on the tube forces and deflectors. With their absence over the pipes, metal caps are installed.
At an altitude of about 650 mm from the floor, the fuel is satisfied. Its inlet can be rectangular or arched shape. To improve heat transfer, the width of the inlet is performed, if possible, more, depth (distance to the rear wall) is smaller, and the side and upper surface - with the expansion towards the room.
Improving heat transfer also contributes to a high-quality inner surface: it should be smooth and smooth.
Basket for ash
To improve the combustion of fuel for the fuel, you need to put a basket made from steel rods with a diameter of at least 10 mm. Otherwise, it is necessary to organize pondered with a grain, in which a removable sheet or a box for collecting ash is installed. At the stage of masonry of the fifume to hold overlaps, it should not be used jumpers from steel, since the steel, heating, is strongly deformed and destroys the masonry. You should use jumpers from cast iron - finished grate or their individual parts. I will add that the construction of the fireplace should produce a person who owns the skills of brickwork.
