The gas convector is one of the varieties of autonomous heaters intended for the heating of individual premises. It is functionally practically completely identical to its more common electrical analogue, but natural or liquefied gas is used as a source of energy.
Principle of operation gas convector Based on changing gas properties with an increase in its temperature.
Passing through the heat exchanger of the convector, the air heats up, it becomes easier and rises above, and new portions of cold air come to his place. Such a movement of air layers is called convection, from here and the name of the device occurred.
Internally, the principle of operation of this heater uniquely determines the method of its placement: the convector is best to set as low as possible, then the effectiveness of its work will be the greatest.
The fact is that the coldest air, by virtue of its density and more weight, is always downstairs, and it will be warm at such a configuration first. In practice, the gas heating unit is most often trying to mount under the window, where heat loss is usually maximal.
Gas heater It is often completed with a tangential fan. Its installation helps increase the flow rate of heated air and noticeably losing the process of heating the room. In addition, some expensive models have an increased body wall thickness and therefore are able to accumulate significant heat volumes, and then transmit it to the surrounding space using heat radiation. Such devices combine the benefits of ordinary radiators and convectors and ensure the highest quality heating.
The gas convector usually consists of the following components:
Depending on the type and functionality of a particular device, some components can be made in different ways or is generally absent.
The gas convector body has decorative and protective functions. It is usually performed from a robust metal painted with a special heat-resistant paint, which can withstand sharp drops of temperatures and protects the surface from corrosion. Inside the device, the gas is constantly burning during its operation, so the casing should reliably protect the interior of the room from open fire. In the lower and upper part of the case, special slots for air circulation are envisaged.
The task of the heat exchanger is to quickly and effectively heat the air. Therefore, it must have the maximum area of \u200b\u200bcontact with air flow. For this, its surface is made as ribbed as possible. At the same time, the principle of operation of the heat exchanger involves constant heating from the gas flame, therefore it is made from heat-resistant steel or cast iron and covered with heat-resistant dye.
Heat for the operation of the gas convector is formed as a result of gas burning in the burner. It is inside the heat exchanger and usually consists of two parts: oster and basic. TO flash burner The electrode is supplied, which incinerates it with an electronic or piezoceramic discharge. If the automation has not blocked the supply of gas due to the malfunction of any system nodes, the main burner is lit.
Installation of the combined gas valve provides gas pressure control supplied to the convector combustion chamber, depending on the signals generated by the automation system or the thermostat. The valve increases accordingly, reduces or completely stops the flow of fuel into the convector.
Any gas heat units are divided into two groups: with natural and forced taiga. The gas convector can also be arranged differently:
Most of the available convectors operates in the second scheme, which provides a simpler installation and comfortable use.
The chimney pipe is displayed horizontally from 50 to 120 mm (depending on the power of the convector and the diameter of the outlet nozzle) and is closed with a grid that protects the device from foreign objects and placing the flame.
A gas convector, as well as any modern heater, can maintain a predetermined room temperature. This serves a thermostat that controls the operation of the gas valve. If the desired temperature has already been achieved, the gas supply is set to a minimum level sufficient to save it.
Built-in automation analyzes sensor readings and tracks all emergency situations. The drop in the pressure in the gas line, the cessation of air supply to the combustion chamber, breakage of the fan of the gas plant, the disruption of the flame and other problems lead to the instantaneous disconnection of the convector.
Installation of the gas convector usually does not cause serious difficulties. the main task - ensure the tightness of all connections and properly cut the hole in the wall for the coaxial chimney. Usually this work is divided into several stages:

Gas convector - a good choice For the heating of the premises to which gas supply is supplied. Its installation is simple, does not require pipe wiring and complicated calculations. If necessary, in periodic short-term heating, it can be the most suitable option.
There are many disputes about the feasibility of installing gas convectors in wood houses. On the one hand, they are much easier to assemble than water systems. On the other raises doubts of efficiency and safety.
Gas convector is easy to install
The advantages are obvious: the gas convector can be put in the already built house, the project of which did not provide for heating. Even the presence of a highway is not required. There are enough models working on a balloon gas.
Permission is required from fire services (if cylinders) or gas (if the highway). In the wall, the project office usually asks to break through the hole in 1 m2. But according to the standards, it is necessary that the distance from the chimney to combustible (that is wooden) structures were from 25 cm. It turns out that if the diameter of the chimney is 30 cm and it is necessary to surround the required 25 cm, the hole with the parties in 80 cm will be quite good. The practice of gas services employees (especially in rural areas) require simply to sow the chimney hole by the galvanized by half the meter. For what norms require a big hole in wooden wall? For overlapping from non-combustible material, bricks, for example.
So, you can quite bypass the hole under the pipe. What isolate it and the wall? In addition to asbestos, basalt towels with a screen made of stainless steel, fiberglass, have proven quite well. Basalt towels (cardboard) are convenient because they are simply nailed with brackets.
Security and convenience
Despite the assurances of sellers of convectors about their absolute security, many "happy" owners found that they can melt from their work plastic window sills. An output can be a removable drying box or a similar design of galvanized. Galvanized box is preferably made not solid, but in the form of plates at an angle (something like blinds). Of course, there are no long curtains over the convector!
If the convector is planned in advance, from the protruding windowsides it is better to refuse
Fans of hot rooms in the winter stepmap will have to either constantly sit next to the convector in shorts, or think about another type of heating. The device high quality warms air only next to him. The farther from the convector, the more cooler.
Water heating in small houses is unprofitable, and in the cottages of non-permanent stay there is still a danger of freezing of the system. For a plurality of convectors, it makes no sense to catch the house with gas pipes or at the corners of the corners. It turns out if you put a convector - then one. Moreover, the most optimal place for installation is an entrance hall if the layout layout is through. With the help of such a thermal curtain near entrance doors Really warm the long bedside to 18 degrees. Of course, if the house itself is only two-room + kitchen. And, of course, it will always have interior doors Keep a car.
Modern models are sufficiently silent, but they can leave clicks. If it is critical, then you need to choose convectors with cast iron heat exchangers, they do not click when cooled.
For private wooden houses The advantages of gas convectors are very dubious. Small, but silent surfaces are dangerous for children and careless adults. Therefore, it is desirable to keep your choice on models that hold a small temperature, but have a large case. Also, a lot of heat flies simply into the pipe. In the literal, the chimney pipe can be very hot. But this warmly could give the house!
A large surface is more efficient
But the convector on the cylinders is a good solution for wooden bath (in the rest room). And suddenly want to fall in winter? Convectors in wooden churches have been proven very well - almost this is one large hall that does not need to be thrown around the clock. And this option remains the only one for private and garden wooden houses with a small limit on electricity and the lack of a main gas.

Modern spectrum of heating devices is very wide. One of these devices is a gas convector. Market heating systems Sounded by gas convectors of various firms. In this article, we will consider in detail the installation process of the gas convector.
Prices for gas convectors are formed depending on the manufacturer and power of the device. The cost of the device also affects its quality. Thus, the gas convector of one Ukrainian manufacturer, bought last year for 900 hryvnia uninterrupted the year. In total, there were two such devices. One of them was out of order, worked out for 5 months. Further repair of the device turned out to be unprofitable. It was more expedient to buy a new gas convector than to repair the old one. The second such device worked the entire heating season and was disabled. With the onset of the next heating season, the device failed. Its repair was also extremely disadvantageous.
What you can not say about two gas convectors of Turkish production. These devices were purchased for 1000 and 1500 hryvnias (200 and 300 dollars last year's course). Different power, but from one manufacturer, they successfully worked the entire heating season, were turned off and put into operation with the onset of cold weather.
Thus, you see the striking difference in quality from different manufacturers.
Convectors differ from each other only by design and presence / absence of a fan, which, blowing the combustion chamber, drive warm air faster.
Gas convectors differ in power. Power affects the amount of heated room.
In the cast iron combustion chamber there is a burning of natural gas. The device has a combined input and outlet tube. Through it, the gas convector comes with oxygen necessary for burning, and burning products. For burning, the device does not require an impressive chimney, providing traction.
So, by completing with the theoretical part, we turn to practice and learn how to install a gas convector.
The convector is installed, engage in gas supply.
The result of the work should be a convector hanging on the wall, exhaust pipe with a cap and a gas pipe, laid and connected to the convector.
In the first hours of operation allowed unpleasant odor burning oil. Convector new, burning combustion chamber. If the smell does not disappear for a long time, the gas should be turned off, and carefully inspect the interface of the exhaust pipe with the outlet of the convector.
ATTENTION: All of the above works are desirable to carry out a specialist. After all independent installation Convector deprives you of the right to warranty repair of the device. In addition, the convector must be accepted by the Gores or another similar service. There must be a design of the insert. And all the necessary permits and conclusions of the commission acceptance commission.
Nevertheless, having these knowledge, you can control the process of installing a gas convector by specialists of the operating office.

Gas convector from a technical point of view is a rather simple device. Accordingly, its installation may seem easy. However, there are a number of rules and nuances, neglect which can lead to incorrect operation of the device or even to an accident. Consider the basic rules for installing the gas convector
Installation of the gas convector is regulated by the following documents: DBN B.2.5-20-2001 "Gas Poda"; DNOP 0.00-1.20-98 "Rules of nonpersion of gas supply systems of Ukraine"; Scum A. 01.001-2004 "Rules of devils to Ukraine".
Mounting on the wall
The installation of the convector should be made in the place of the largest heat loss of the room, ideally under the window. But here there is one important nuance: next to the device should not be flammable items and structures. It is categorically impossible to wrap it with curtains, curtains, etc., since during operation the body of the device is significantly heated.
Included for convector some manufacturers are applied mounting scheme (template), which depicts the place of attachment of the device to the wall and place to enter the coaxial chimney. When choosing a place of attachment it is important to provide that the distance along the outer wall between the coaxial chimney and the level of land was at least 0.5 m, and from the nearest window - not less than 0.25 m. It is also necessary to take into account the possibility of the formation of a snowy drift that can block the discharge combustion products. Inside the room, the device must be installed in such a way that the distance between the lowest part of the convector (usually rear wall) and the floor was at least 0.10 m; For the highest quality convection, this distance should be 0.20-0.25 m. The distance between the instrument and the side wall should be at least 0.18 m. The distance from the top of the housing to the windowsill, if the convector is mounted under the window, at a minimum of 0, 10 m (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1. Placement of the gas convector
Coaxial chimney
Installation of the coaxial chimney is performed in the pre-punched (drilled) hole in the wall. There may be problems in a purely technical nature, because the removal of combustion products and the combustion intake for combustion in gas convectors occurs naturally, and in this connection the outer diameter of the chimney is quite large. Basically the diameter of the hole in the wall, depending on the requirements of the manufacturer, should be 0.16-0.20 m. It may be a difficult task if the wall is made of durable material.
The length of the coaxial chimney in most models is a maximum of 0.59 m, i.e. the wall thickness on which the device is installed, should not exceed this value. The mimic thickness of the wall can be less than 0.20 m, but the manufacturer does not guarantee normal The convector works and the achievements of the parameters specified in the technical passport, due to the large heat loss of the building. The chimney must be mounted in such a way that the air intake pipe is located in the same level with the plane. outdoor Wall And at 0.035 m, the premises acted. In addition, in order to avoid moisture from entering the apparatus, the inclination of the coaxial chimney by 2-3 degrees should be taken into account. Outside, the chimney is fastened with a protective cap, which, firstly, prevents foreign objects, secondly, serves as defending the wind and knocking the burner flame.
Montage errors
It is important that the gas convector can be mounted on a non-combustible surface in accordance with DBN standards (insulation of roofing steel asbestos with a thickness of at least 3 mm, plaster, etc.) at a distance of at least 30 mm from the wall. Isolation should be for the enabers of the case. The violation of these rules may result in damage the material of the walls or
even to the fire.

Although legislation does not require the installation of gas alarm in operation of gas convectors, the installation is included with the cutting off electromagnetic valve It will not be superfluous - as for any equipment operating on gas.

? Gas convectors - devices used for heating rooms and gas fuel operating on gas fuel. Their distinctive qualities are economy and no noise. Gas convectors are ideal for country houses and apartments. Let us consider in more detail the features of their work, the criteria for choosing gas convectors, as well as how ordinary users are responding about the operation of these devices.
Gas convectors are used both natural and liquefied gas. For changing the fuel you only need to reconfigure gas valve. Gas convector is also used as the main or reserve source Heat (indoor temperature can warm up to 38 degrees). Power equipment fluctuate from 2 to 6 kW.
Gas convectors are usually attached to the wall under the windowsill. Completed with a system of pipes that ensure the output of combustion products and air intake. In gas convectors installed temperature sensorsallowing you to control the selected temperature mode. In the case of gas supply interruptions in the convector, a gas valve is triggered, which blocks the fuel supply.
The main advantage of gas convectors - economy. This device He reduces the loss of heat to zero, thereby allowing to save on the heating of the premises.
Disadvantage - the need for punching holes in the walls For the withdrawal of the chimney and the creation of branched gas wiring throughout the house, in the case of work on the main gas.
First you need decide on the type of fuel:
What fuel is available in the area of \u200b\u200byour home, that convector and buy. It is also necessary to pay attention. on the length of the gas ductSo that its length is at least the thickness of the wall in which you will do the hole. Of course, if necessary, you can refer to a specialist to increase the length of the pipe, then these are additional costs.
Gas convectors are:
Practically install convector with a fan indoor that does not require constant heating. But install the convector with the fan in the residential premises is not entirely convenient, since the convector is accompanied by constant fan noise.
Install gas convectors only specialists relevant qualifications. For proper installation and operation in accordance with the instructions your gas convector will become a profitable, comfortable and safe heater.
On January 5, we set us a long-awaited convector. Here for two months we have a beauty here - neither water, no light we need. This month I have naked just 62 rubles. The first month is more, of course, while the house was driving. And before, the apartment is 15 square meters. m., paid 700? 900 rubles per month and often there were interruptions: there are no light - we have a cold, there is no water - again the cold. Now there are no problems. Great thing. Everyone would advise to put. The main thing is that quickly puts, the costs are small. There is nothing complicated - one hole struck, no pipes and hood under the window costs. Everything. Exhausts do not bother. Open the window - no exhaust. Very satisfied. ?

Bought two months ago Zhitomir-5 KNS in a room of 23 square meters. and in the bedroom a convector Agok-2.5 C cast iron heat exchange. If you want to sleep in silence, do not regret, add 1500? 1800 rubles and buy with a cast iron heat exchanger. It will work silently and heat allocates better.

I bought gas convector Uzhgorod Akog-4-Spe 2 years ago - great heats the room, but yellowing the case. But it did not affect the work.
I use convectors Demrad NGS-30 without fan On the garden house. 2 rooms for 16kV. m. Built as a summer house with light insulation. Initially, I just wanted to put the oven, but in 2008 they conducted a trunk gas, so I put convectors. Then I did not know anything else. Just read and chose non-volatile, because it is not necessary to make grounding. And the price is beautiful - 6500 rubles. in 2008. Today price rose a bit to convectors. Well, about heating. Convectors included all the heating season. The regulator is set at a minimum of +13, works on idling. If I come - I exhibit by 4 hours after 3 you can walk in the shirt. But completely the house warms off after 12. Warming in the house, of course, not enough, it is necessary to warm up - it will pay off. Now I. i spend 500? 600 gas cubes. I connected immediately to the highway, so I will not say anything about the power of the cylinders. It seems to me that for houses with two-three rooms, the convectors are very beneficial. Well, if the house is more, then it is better to put the boiler.
In the fall, finally carved gas and put convectors. For 2006 2007 heating period spent 1024 cubes of gas (area of \u200b\u200b70 sq. M.). I did not exceed the minimum limits. For gas crying 39 kopecks / cube. Total I paid only 399 hryvnia 36 kopecks. Funny. And the temperature in the house is always +26 degrees. There are no questions about work at all. The air is dried as well as the batteries, I keep in each room a certain temperature (in the bedroom I love it in order to be), and in difficult times i hear only the room, and not completely the whole house. And they work according to the principle "included and forgot". And the interior was picked up.

In my opinion - for dacha house just right. I dismantled my Demrad after two years of operation, this is a fact. In the autumn and in the spring he he heated my cottage is just super. Leav for several days turned on (you need to pass through the wall correctly). Only the house I have more and warm it in winter, the aggregate cannot quickly. I will put in the attic, there is less square there.

The need for gas convectors is. They enjoy people living in Arkhangelsk, Tyumen and other regions of Russia. AND most of Europe. There the topic is spelled in all details and intricacies. Convector is not more dangerous than gas boiler. Lighting batteries for premises up to 50 square meters. m. no sense. Convector not afraid of defrosting - This is its certain advantages. By disadvantages - the need to make a hole in the wall for the exhaust and gas liner outside around the house. Installation and maintenance from an economic point boiler will cost.

If your home for non-permanent residence is located in the village - village, district center or agro-house, then best way No heating. You can come to cold house And heat the stove, wait for a long time and patiently, and you can come to the warm with the installed convector. Just carefully look at the vehicle, which rooms at home are residents. Only in non-residential premises - entrance hall, kitchen, pantry - you can make a laying of pipes indoors.
For heating rooms use different heating devices and devices. Gas convectors are reliable and practical in work. The heat that comes from this instrument is maximally transmitted to the space of the room. These convectors can be equipped with both centralized and autonomous heating system.
The heat enters the room at the expense of convection of the heating device when the warm air flows from the hot heater. The gas convector is equipped with a special hermetic combustion chamber, it is the surface of this chamber that heats up during the burning of the gas.
The method of convection is based on the fact that warm air, which comes from the heat source goes upstairs. Cold air (which is hard) lowers down the room and, in contact with the convector, heats up and goes up. So, at the expense constant circulation Airflow, all the room warms up.
To increase the power of the gas convector and maximally heat the natural gas room of any size, in some devices install the fan heater. It accelerates convection in forced mode, and this, accordingly, significantly reduces the time for heating the room to the desired temperature.
While choosing the desired model, you need to consider certain conditions exploitation, study reviews, find out the price, know the area of \u200b\u200bthe room and the highest temperature for heating. Detailed description All technical properties and criteria will help cope with the task of buying an optimally better gas convector.
Like all heating devices, gas convectors have their own characteristics that need to be taken into account and understand how to choose the right convector for the house:
Taking into account the criterion for saving the place and working conditions, more practical and suitable are considered wall gas convectors. They do not have a lot of space and, as a rule, are installed on the wall near the window, it turns out an additional heat curtain between the room and the cold window.
But these devices must be quite lightweight and not to create a large load on the wall. Gas convectors on the wall are limited by thermal performance up to 10 kilowatt.
If it is necessary to warm up a large number of areas, then use more powerful outdoor gas equipment . These devices create a larger amount of thermal energy, but also have much large dimensions, as well as considerable weight, they need a reliable and sustainable base.
The price of outdoor and wall-mounted devices is approximately the same with similar equipment capacity.
During the choice of the gas convector, you need to take into account heated room size. It is this parameter that is considered fundamental when calculating the efficiency of the gas convector. To calculate the required power, there are a number of methods.
The main calculation occurs taking into account such a rule: for every 10 square meters of the room, 1 kilowatt heat is used.
This is universal formula, It is most suitable for standard rooms with ceilings height no more than three meters, the usual location of doors and windows and good insulation.
If more thorough calculations are needed in poorly insulated or non-standard premises, then you need to contact professionals.
The operation of the convector is based on the combustion of gas in the thermal chamber of the equipment, and the heat exchanger is exposed to the most powerful thermal exposure, the heat exchanger is rapidly displaced the device. That is, of course, the manufacturer's material is simply obliged to be most sustainable and durable.
In this case, the obvious leader is cast iron. The cast iron heat exchanger is thermally stable, the operation time of these gas convectors is over 50 years.
Another advantage of the cast iron heat exchanger is the most slow cooling and uniform heat distribution. The disadvantage, judging by the reviews, is a big weight and, high price.
Steel convectors With the heat exchanger at a price cheaper and easier cast iron. But during the purchase it is necessary to pay attention to the quality of steel, this gas convector can serve at least 30 years.
A simple extract is based on the air fence from the house and remove the combustion products into the vertical smoke.
The simplest gas convectors are arranged on this principle, the disadvantages of this device are apparent. it burning air in the room, the need for a converter in good ventilation and the creation of a complex chimney, which passes through the roof and overlap.
The advantages of these devices - the price is a little lessUnlike other devices with the same parameters.
Convectors with a closed combustion chamber are considered the most environmentally friendly and qualitative. Here the traction is supported by the fan built into the chimney.
With this version of the equipment coaxial chimney is satisfied, on the inner pipeline of which products come out gas practiceAnd on the interlock distance there is a fence of air into the combustion chamber.
Forced operation of the chimney occurs with the installed centrifugal fan. This can make a convector with an energy-dependent and closed combustion chamber, it is much easier, safer and practical in the installation.
The installed fan heater provides fast and uniform heating of the entire house. Another very important factor is the feed to the heat exchanger, it will enter the forced cooling of the hot housing.
This creates some protective measures From constant heating, this is the most extended material service time from which the heat exchanger is made. Especially securely cooling in devices with increased thermal power (thousands of kilowatt).
Initially gas convectors are designed to connect to the pipeline of the central gas pipeline. Thus, it seems that they work only on natural gas.
But when using a special adapter kit, gas convectors quickly go into operation mode liquefied gas. Certain brands of convectors models were initially designed with the possibility of transition to liquefied or balloon gas.
Features of work on natural gas:
Installing the gas convector is justified and is excellent output From the situation in those regions in which there are no centralized gas highways, and the supply of electricity occurs with large interruptions is either completely absent.
But the savings are achieved due to the fact that the production of one kilowatt of thermal power is only 0.1 cubic meter of gas. All these statements have a basis only when connected gas device The main gas pipeline and the use of natural gas.
Dimensions. This indicator at the gas convector loses significantly. These devices are not very compact, especially outdoor models. Taking into account the need to increase thermal power strongly increases size and weight equipment.
The choice of several low-power convectors to the room where there are many windows. If there are several windows in the room, then when operating one convector, the air in the corners of the room can be cold. To do this, it will be necessary under each window to put a convector that not always economically rational.
Low inertia. Conventional metal gas convectors are quickly cooled and heated. This parameter is not always a negative advantage, it all depends on the type of housing heated.
Mobility shortage And the need to arrange holes for chimney in the wall are also a disadvantage of this type of heating devices.
Gas convectors used to heat separate rooms and rooms, when using natural gas, are considered cost-effective heaters. But if necessary, heating several rooms or large squares they lose more efficient and economical boilers Heating with an autonomous system.
December 30, I installed us such a long-awaited convector. Here for several months we have a beauty here - no water, no light we need. In the first month I had about 150 rubles. The first month, of course, has progressed their home yet.
And before that, the apartment is 20 square meters. m., I paid 800-1000 rubles per month and there were often interruptions: there are no light - we have cold, there are no water - it's cold again. And now, there are no problems. Gorgeous thing. Everyone would recommend to establish.
The main thing is that it is quickly installed, the costs are small. Nothing complicated - one hole made, no pipes, and the extractor near the window is worth it. Everything. Exhausts go all there. Open the window - and that's it. Satisfied, I recommend to everyone.
On an area of \u200b\u200b80 square meters. m. (room from failure formwork, Ceilings warm 2.80 m) into strong frosts for a week there are 6 liters of gas in the cylinder. Electricity is not needed at all! It is truly beautiful and warm. I advise everyone.
I purchased three months ago, I read the gas convector reviews, Zhytomyr 5 KNS to a room of 25 square meters. m. And in the bedroom Convector AGC 2.5 with a heat exchanger from cast iron. If you want to sleep in silence, do not regret, add a couple of thousand rubles and select a cast iron heat exchanger. It will work quiet and warm much better.
How to install a gas convector with your own hands
Required tools and materials:
The first stage, one of the most important - choice of place to install. By gtostas, it must be installed under the window. Honestly, I do not know what it is connected with. Moreover, I saw that convectors are installed at a fairly large distance from the windows.
By finding a place to install, you need to try out the convector to the place. It is convenient to make it possible to make a sizes with a roulette with a roulette, or that it is more reliable to apply convector to the wall and running the hole.
An important thing is the next moment - the location of the inlet for gas. If it is located at the bottom of the convector, it is necessary to leave a sufficient distance to bring a pipe with a clamping fitting.
Then, based on the diameter of the exhaust pipe, we break through the hole in the wall using the perforator. This is the most dusty and laborious process. It is necessary to prepare well. Ship in advance, all that is possible, polyethylene film.
Then drill the holes for fasteners and drive the dowels in them. Install the exhaust pipe into the convector hole. Treat the location of the compound high temperature silicone. Holding the convector with his hands, insert the pipe into the hole in the wall. Attach the convector dowels to the wall. It is not easy because the convector is sufficiently heavy. Ask someone to help hold. Some are doing differently, but this method is tested by me many times. I find it most comfortable. The result was a convector, screwed to the wall and the chimney pipe sticking out on the street.
Play the remaining slots between the pipe and the wall of high-temperature foam. Dress the special cap, designed to protect against the blown of the burner by the wind, on the end of the pipe. It is included. This cap is attached by self-drawing, also included in the kit.
So the convector is installed, now we will deal with the connection of the gas.
Summing out gas to convector
According to GOST, it is necessary that the pipe that comes to the convector passed down the street. So do it. If the gas pipe has a threaded connection made in advance, then you just need to wind the gas crane that cuts off the gas supply to the convector. Well, if the pipe without removal, you will need to do it. This work can make a gas-welder. Ideally, a specialist from Gorghaz or a similar office.
After the gas valve is installed, swipe the metal pipe to the convector. Using the roulette, we calculate the length of the pipe, and the number of fittings.
By the way, buying, fittings and pipe, make sure that the compliance certificate required for the work of this kind is.
Now install the pipe, attach it with clips to the wall through each meter. To set clips - drill in the wall of the hole. When you install the pipe, lubricate the pipe and fittings with silicone for additional sealing. In addition, Silicone will facilitate the installation of pipes as it will serve as a lubricant.
As a result, we get a convector that hangs on the wall, exhaust pipe, cap and gas pipe Fastened to the wall and connected to the convector.
Run gas convector
Immediately before launching, we open the gas crane and pass through all the joints, fittings and threaded compounds with a moistened with a brush with a small mortar. Great for this purpose dishwashing liquid. If you see an eyebuble bubbles, immediately overlap the faucet and remove the leak. I forgot to say - at this moment it is better not to smoke.
Ripping joints, run convector. To do this, click the gas supply button and do not release about a minute so that the gas filled the pipes and hit the combustion chamber.
Now press the Piezorozal button. The spark will set fire to gas and in the combustion chamber will break up a blue, funny blue flame. In case you did everything right :).
Adjust the operation of the convector to get a comfortable temperature.
At first, somewhere for several hours of operation, the presence of an unpleasant smell of burnt oil is allowed. It is not scary - the convector is new - warm and burning the combustion chamber. However, if the smell does not disappear for a long time, you need to turn off the gas, and intersee the interface of the convector outlet and the exhaust pipe.
Attention: All of these work listed work is better to carry out a specialist. Do not forget - independent installation of the gas convector leaves you without the right to its warranty repair. And of course, the convector must be adopted by Gores and for this you need a design of the insert. As well as all the necessary permits and the conclusion of the commission of acceptance of the device.
Nevertheless, having received this knowledge, you can control the installation of the gas convector with hired performers.
2012-05-24In the cold season for heating the room are used various devices. One of the most popular today is the gaseous convector. As a rule, after the acquisition of this device, the question arises: how to install a gas convector?

As a result of the work, you must obtain convector fixed on the wall with a gas pipe connected to it.
Now the last stage of the installation remained. It is necessary to make a trial launch.
Before starting, open the gas crane and go through all the joints of the fittings and threaded compounds with a brush, moistened with an aqueous soap or shampoo. So you can notice sophisticated bubbles (if they), which indicate gas leaks. If this happens, then immediately overlap the gas supply faucet. After controlling the junctions, launch the convector. Press the gas supply button for one minute. So gas will have time to go through the pipes and get into the combustion chamber. Press the piezoslice, the spark will have to light gas. A blue flame breaks up in the furnace.
Adjust the work of the convector, setting a comfortable temperature. In the first few hours of work you can feel nasty smell burning oil. This is normal, since the convector is new and burning the combustion chamber. If the smell delays for a long time, it is necessary to turn off the gas and again check all the joints and threaded connections.
It is desirable that all the work on the installation of gas convectors perform a professional who has sufficient experience of performing such work. This is due to the fact that the independent installation of the convector can deprive you guarantees on the device. The gas convector must be accepted on the balance of Gores.You should have a documentary resolution in your hands. In addition, all decisions on the installation, as well as the conclusion of the commissioning commission, must be documented and signed by the appropriate way.
