The fireplace
It 's a simple machine that can transform wood into heat, so this simplistic definition makes us overlook a very important part of the same, it is expected to mount it there is a guarantee of comfort, a security of savings, and a no maintenance, this is not true, because if we have previously evaluated the location, floor area of \u200b\u200bCuba to be heated, the air intake and we do not have a good chimney to expel fumes all our work goes up in smoke.
The location is very important to allow the same to heat in less time possible, our home, consuming less wood. The length
door to install a machine with more capacity of more amount of water and firewood.
The air intake and chimney are critical for good combustion, in fact the first is the "engine" of combustion, the second allows the evacuation of the combustion fumes to a height above the ground sufficient to facilitate the dispersion and make harmless.
monitoring combustion fireplace, consider three steps:
1) High temperature
2) The combustion
3) The air
The high temperature makes it possible to burn even with a reduced amount of oxygen and can also burn the gas ignition difficult.
combustion, the wood is the only source of energy in in nature and truly renewable if properly burned emits the same amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by the plant to live and grow, blending into the cycle of nature.
provides good combustion air in the chimney and it takes two elements, smoke and high temperature.
To conclude we can say that to have a good yield of the fireplace, a good comfort must have made some careful thought, he had previously followed the advice of a qualified technician, and after installing a minimum of maintenance.
Excess flue draft, when present, can be effectively combated with the application to the chimney of a moderator draft. The moderator of the draw has the advantage of making reasonably constant value of depression in the chimney.
Poor draft, when present, involves two conditions: the first
if a chimney is too small and this leads to an immediate replacement with a larger model in stainless steel.
The second effect of the winds, in this case we must consider installation of a good chimney cap that lowers the action of the winds (see photo)
a fire Light the fire in a fireplace even though apparently easy, in reality it is not. Do not mess with fire and you must be very careful. First
not recommend in any way, to light a fire with gasoline or alcohol because they are very dangerous and you run the risk of serious burns.
It is expected to soak in alcohol or gasoline card you can not turn the wood with much more ease. It is not true, it's a big mistake. Remember that alcohol or gasoline vapors can easily ignite and burn your face or arms.
recommended to keep a fire extinguisher at hand efficiently.
remember that for the ignition of wood, there are many other ways, perhaps longer, but certainly much safer for your safety.
A little advice for the ignition still not suppressed the flame with excessive burning, because fire needs oxygen to ignite, ie air. As the wood burns
Wood is essentially a storehouse of energy, to make it burn we need two components:
1) oxygen
2) altatemperatura
When wood burns through three stages:
A) Release of moisture (it is always advisable to use dry wood and dry to get more calories and less pollution
B) Increase of temperature (the gaseous pollutants are emitted at temperatures between 260 ° C and 315 ° C)
C) coal begin to burn between 540 ° C and 705 ° C are reduced to ash, at this stage to produce the maximum heat while for the gases emitted comes the fade around 600 ° C and 650 ° C as long as there is enough oxygen.
produces much heat the wood?
The calorific value of domestic wood is generally expressed in Kcal / kg and represents the amount of heat released by complete combustion of one kilogram of wood. The calorific value depends on the quality of the wood and the moisture content.
On average we get the following values \u200b\u200bper kilogram of wood Frondoso: 4300Kcal/Kg, while the softwood 4600Kcal/Kg.
Materials
To cover a brick fireplace we can use various kinds of shape, color, texture, size. We can then use
Ceramic tiles are also an excellent coating material of any kind. With me
tiles can be made, beyond the front coating, and even the homes interior, including the stone is shaped in many sizes and colors, in Italy there are many varieties of marble. Finally, if
conventional building materials may not be used for their weight, or for some other reason, you can use instead of synthetic materials much lighter. The choice may seem to go from thin walls of brick or stone, until similpietre volcanic weighing less than one fourth of the original stones.
