Boiler equipment as one of the most important components of life support

During the construction of any building, half of the success depends on the competent design of its engineering systems, which is divided into two parts: external and internal design.

In this article we will pay attention to internal design, which implies the design of heating, water supply, sewerage, lighting and other aspects. In this vein, boiler equipment is one of the key components for the life support of buildings, and building an effective heating system is the most important task.

Making the right choice in favor of one or another boiler equipment is half the battle. Selecting a boiler equipment plant is the second half. If you choose a plant as a manufacturer that can offer a large range of boilers of various capacities, you can confidently say that all the practical experience of its specialists using modern mechanical engineering technologies will be aimed at satisfying the customer’s requests. Other advantages of working directly with the manufacturer include close interaction with the customer, which ensures fruitful cooperation for the entire life of the equipment, and also includes instructions on installation, maintenance, operating instructions, personnel training and commissioning. The boiler equipment itself, in turn, differs by type of fuel into the following types:

Gas boiler equipment.

This is the most common type of boiler equipment in our country. Choosing heating using gas equipment is considered the most economically feasible solution. This popularity of gas equipment is due directly to gas itself - the cheapest type of fuel. The high cost of installing this equipment is guaranteed to pay off due to the maximum effect at low cost. By connecting a boiler to a gas boiler, the issue of uninterrupted hot water supply is resolved. These boilers are safe, equipped with silent atmospheric burners and adapted to low pressure. Gas boiler equipment is an excellent solution for both residential and industrial premises.

Electric boiler equipment.

The construction of boiler houses based on electric boilers is popular due to the low cost of this equipment, ease of installation and environmental friendliness. The design is simple, safe and harmless. Efficiency is more than 93%. But the operating cost of this type of boiler equipment is ten times higher than the cost of heat when using gas.

Diesel boiler equipment.

Diesel or liquid fuel boiler equipment is a very successful alternative to heating equipment running on gas, where there is no gas pipeline or there is no constant supply of gas. Among the advantages are the low cost of fuel (compared to other types of boiler equipment, except gas), complete autonomy, high efficiency and the possibility of further conversion from diesel fuel to natural gas.

Water heating, steam or condensing boiler equipment.

This type of boiler equipment is quite economical and highly productive. It is based on the use of the effect of condensation of cooled steam and, in addition to heat, can also provide such an air parameter as humidity.

Solid fuel boiler equipment.

A boiler running on this fuel (peat, wood, coal) is classified as a reserve boiler (in case of malfunctions). The advantages of this type of boiler equipment: relatively low cost, autonomy from gas and electrical systems. Modern boilers have high efficiency (exceeds 85%), they are fully automated, and there is no need to solve smoke exhaust issues. But their operation requires a lot of time and attention from the user, as well as space for storing solid fuel.

Mixed and industrial boiler equipment.

A mixed or combined heating system is the right choice to avoid the risk of interruptions in the supply of the main consumable fuel. They are used, as a rule, for vital facilities - schools, kindergartens, medical institutions.

It is worth noting that today the determining factors are the timing, quality and cost of a project such as the construction of boiler houses. This implies the following set of works: obtaining permits for boiler installations, technical conditions for water supply, sewerage, gasification, and electrical supply of the facility; in fact, the project itself, the selection and supply of boiler equipment from the manufacturer, installation of modules and the boilers themselves, preparation of documentation for interaction with supervisory authorities and delivery of completed work. At the same time, installation includes both installation and commissioning work - and this is the adjustment of all mechanisms of the boiler installation, guaranteeing uninterrupted supply and prevention of emergency situations.

If time is running out, and it is necessary to hand over the object by the beginning of the heating season, then in this case various standard solutions are possible. This reduces the time required for approval and design of a boiler room and allows, in parallel with the development of individual parts, to purchase basic equipment. For a comprehensive solution to such a problem as the construction of boiler houses, the participation of a professional company is necessary.
