Stoves for the bath "Varvara": features and varieties

Russian manufacturers offer a wide range of models of equipment for heating baths. For this purpose, perfectly suitable domestic stove for bath "Varvara".

This product has advantages in use over foreign brands of furnaces.

The company “Varvara”, which is located in the city of Tver, began manufacturing its furnace products about 10 years ago, and this brand is still in great demand and positive feedback from the owners.

Thanks to the complete structures, they can be installed in the smallest rooms of the steam rooms.. Various models of stoves allow you to create a unique image in the bath.

Power of the Varvara furnaces varies from 8 to 12 kW. The thickness of the metal used for the manufacture of the combustion chamber of the fuel does not exceed 6 mm. Due to such use of the material, the construction will serve for a long time.

Only one type of fuel is used - it is firewood. The heating time of the steam room is 1-1.5 hours. After the firewood has completely burned down, the room cools down rather quickly. But the manufacturer has made models with two stoves that retain heat indoors much longer. This is due to the lining of the structure with natural stones.

Model stoves "Barbara" is very simple in the device. The design is made of elements:

• furnace firebox, which is designed to load fuel (wood);
• the final chamber, where the final decomposition of the flue gases occurs;
• ashpit and grate,necessary to adjust the process of burning fuel and collecting solid fuel residues;
• chimney construction;
• the furnace lining providing heat transfer from the furnace to the environment;

Each model of the furnace can be equipped with additional elements that allow the furnace to function more efficiently and comfortably:

• fireboxwhich can be made in different variations: short, standardized, elongated;
• tank mounted. Such a device is a water tank, which is fixed to the left or right of the furnace in a special recess. The tank is made of stainless steel with a thickness of not more than 1 mm;
• wide door, which is mostly an element of decor;
• water tank. It is installed on the chimney pipe in the event that the bath is equipped with running water. In this case, you can take a shower;
• heat exchanger. This device is necessary to heat the liquid in a container located at a remote distance from the stove. You must constantly monitor the amount of water in the heat exchanger. With a lack of water, a depressurization mechanism may occur.

Consider the basic models of wood stoves "Barbara".

These are fast-heating stoves that keep heat indoors for quite a while. The walls and the upper part of the stove are lined with natural stone (talkative). The screen is made of heat-resistant glass, thus, it is possible to admire the fire.

The difference between these furnaces is the capacity for stones. In the "Fairy Tale" it is presented in the open, and "Terma Fairy Tale" has a closed tank with a lid. Such types of furnaces heat a room of no more than 24 m². Construction weight up to 200 kg. Mini-stoves of these models heat up rooms of no more than 12 m².

There are several varieties of mini-ovens:

• mini-stove without contour;

To create the climate of a real Russian bath, the Varvara stove is faced with bricks.

Here is the most economical variation of the foundation for the Varvara stove made of logs and the correct lining:

• Only one side of the foundation is brought under the wall in such a way that the stove screen comes out into the rest room. It is necessary to overlay with waterproofing material, and the walls start to be cut with 2 crowns. As a result, the foundation will be as close to the wall as possible. A brick screen combines with the other side of the stove, which is located in the steam room.
• Before proceeding with the installation of the furnace, it must be heated in the street. This is necessary in order to get rid of the unpleasant smell of the factory. The first row of bricks is laid on the mortar in accordance with the construction level.

• In the area next to the chamber of the firebox, fire brick is used. In other areas it is allowed to use facing bricks.His sinuses are filled with ordinary sand.
• The brick screen is made of fireproof clay mass. It withstands temperatures up to +1500 degrees. You can buy in any hardware store.
• A piece suitable for a screen is cut out of a metal sheet, with which you can later cover the heater area.

Creating a brick screen has its advantages:

• accumulates the resulting heat, and will give energy gradually as it cools;
• appearance - for the modern style, you can use natural stone;
• dry heat appears in the brickwork, which is characteristic only of Russian steam rooms.

• Slow heating of the liquid in the tank.To solve this problem, you need to install a heat exchanger on the chimney, which allows rapid heating of water. The main thing is that the liquid does not boil, you need to constantly monitor this.
