Despite all the disadvantages of diesel boilers, such as noise, the need for fuel reserves and the release of a separate room in the house for the installation of such a boiler, they are still preferable to their electrical counterparts. Liquid fuel boiler requires constant control and control.
Diesel boilers for home
Modern models of diesel boilers have an external protective coating to prevent a burn from touching the outer surface. The reason for the popularity and preferences of the diesel boiler instead of an electric boiler, banal and simple. Everything rests on energy. At the moment, electricity is more expensive. Another of the reasons for the popularity of diesel is an opportunity in the case of gasification of the room with minimal alterations to switch to gas.
A diesel boiler allows you to feel the comfort of a city apartment, with its water heating while in a country house.
However, control and maintenance, moreover, daily is something that cannot be dispensed with the owner of the boiler. Also, the advantage of the liquid -fuel boiler is that its installation does not require any permits.
Since in a private house the need for heating is more important and more often used than the presence of hot water, it is preferable to acquire a non -diesel boiler, but a single -circuit with a built -in boiler, which will supply hot water. Most modern models of liquid -fuel boilers also have the opportunity to work on liquefied gas from cylinders, kerosene, fuel oil.
Diesel boiler consumption
An example of the flow of liquid fuel of a diesel boiler with a capacity of 10 kW in a suburban country house with an area of 100 m2. Our boiler produces a power of 10 kW of heat with a consumption of diesel fuel equal to 1 kg per 1 hour. You can find out the flow rate of liquid fuel, which is necessary to heat our room if you use a coefficient of 0.1, which must be multiplied by the maximum power of the burner. But the numbers are so well added that you can do without any formulas.
About a hundred days, during the most severe frosts and in the winter months, the boiler will have to work at full power. And for about the same amount of days the boiler will work at half the power – this is in the fall and spring. Accordingly, we receive fuel consumption in the first hundred days of intensive heating of 2.4 tons and 1.2 tons during the rest of the time. The total number is 3.6 tons of diesel fuel for the heating season.
