Kitchen design with a gas column

kitchen project with a gas column, masking

To eliminate confusion, let's first clarify that the project - design kitchen with gas stove and repair of the room with the existing column are two different things.So try to get a closer look at the first option.Your kitchen is a blank slate, and you need a convenient and practical place in it the necessary furniture, home appliances and water heater.Of course, the project needs to start with the purchase of the device.And of course, the smaller and more compact it is, the easier it will be "slapped" and disguise it under the conceived interior.

Modern manufacturers offer a sufficiently wide range of gas columns, among which you will find quite compact.But do not forget that it is directly proportional to the size and power specifications.
This design can be placed between the kitchen cabinets, or it may be the final link and be located at the beginning or at the end of all the kitchen cabinets.It all depends on the sequence in which you will buy interior elements.If at first you buy a heater, then under its parameters it will be easy to pick up a kitchen furniture, as if on the contrary, you are unlikely to pick up the column of the desired size, and it will have to be set as the final element.

Thus, a gas heater can be placed both along and at the corner junction between the kitchen unit as shown in Figure 1.

Alternatively, the column can also be placed in the corner, and the "linking" kitchen cabinets and disguising itselfcolumn under the cabinet, as shown in the photo below.

This is called masking the built-in, ie,the device is placed in an appropriately sized kitchen cupboard.Usually this option is used as a last resort when other means to hide it from prying eyes is impossible.But you must know that the sides of the machine should be some space (only a couple of centimeters) for ventilation, and a "shell" for the column should not be lower and the upper horizon, and only the door!Kitchen wall over which set the heater should be treated special refractory mixture.Cables and pipes leading to the column, in any case can not be built into the wall.

As in any other water system pipes are present in the gas structure, through which the water flows into the device, and chimney.All this is easily masked by a special duct, material and color are matched by the interior design conceived.

Kitchen furniture and design of the gas column

with the way we understand disguise.But when the mask is not possible, it is necessary to do the column element of the interior, and try to match the overall design style.In this case, usually there is only one - to paint it in the tone of the room or in accordance with the style of paint using a stencil.

Remember that the metal body is heated to a certain temperature, so the paint must be heat-resistant, otherwise it simply charred in some parts of the surface or fall behind
If your kitchen already installed gas heater, then the selection of furniture, consider the following:

• Ergonomics first!Avoid cumbersome and overall the furniture, especially if you have a small kitchen and the main goal - to save space;
• Try to approximate the depth and width of wall cupboards to the thickness of the column, so that she is not "stuck out" to complete the installation of furniture, and was with them in the same plane.

As a result, with the right placement of furniture, or all at once will bring the maximum design kitchen with a gas column to a cozy ideal.And do not forget that the need to establish such a system experts, and your sketch to be approved by the municipal service.
