Heating in a private home with the use of polyethylene pipes

boiler Choice

polyethylene construction will not deliver much effort to install compared to steel counterparts.The owner does not need to have a welding machine and wield welding technology.Compound plastic products made much easier.To do this, there are fittings and standardized parts, which will ensure a tight seal.And if welding is still required, this technology can be mastered by even a novice.

tube for heating boilers produced by molecular cross-linking of the material, whereby a high-strength pipe, resistant to mechanical stress, temperature, heat-resistant.These unsurpassed quality pipes made of this material have found acceptance among builders and private developers.

Heating in a private home, each tries to make as comfortable as possible by setting radiators, infrared heating, heated floors, and sometimes combining all possible elements.And, for the underfloor heating again, you can use plastic pipes or electric mats.

But, the main heating arrangement - it is an initial draft of the definition of place of location of the boiler, pipes and radiators, connection method, wiring diagrams and much more.In addition, the project must be provided Thermal calculation, which is the basis for selecting the pipe diameter, the slope of heating pipes, the number of radiators, coolant velocity and temperature extremes.

pipes and circuits - is well and good, but the heating system will always be the heart of the boiler.It can be single or dual-circuit.What is the difference between them?It's simple - single-loop only for heating premises by connecting it to the radiator, and in addition to double-heating functions still plays the role of a water heater for hot water like a boiler.

boilers can operate on different fuels:

• electricity;
• gas;
• liquid and solid fuels;
• combined fuel.

In any case, whatever the boiler has not been selected, all the same it will depart from the metal tubes, which in the future it will be possible to connect a plastic pipe.

Advantages of polyethylene pipes heating

main advantage - low price, allows to reduce construction costs.In addition to this advantage, the pipes made of polyethylene have a number of other important benefits:

• not corrode;
• pipes have a long service life;
• not need cathodic protection;
• not debug the fat accumulation, so the diameter of the pipe is not narrowed;
• using plastic pipes reduces heat losses due to the low thermal conductivity;
• probability of failure of plastic pipes during freezing inside the liquid is lower than that of counterparts from metal;
• lightweight products make installation less time consuming.
• have excellent insulating properties - virtually no noise is heard water running in them;
• service life up to 50 years;
• hygienic and environmentally friendly;
• fully sealed and eliminate leaks;
• perfectly grasped with concrete, which makes it possible to arrange a covert liner and do not spoil the interior design.
• used when installing a minimum of connections, which increases the strength of design.
