Today, quite often, residents of apartment buildings complain that the rooms are cold in winter: the central heating does not do its job well. By installing individual heating in the apartment, you will forever forget about your problems.
Choosing a boiler
Most suitable equipment with a closed combustion chamber. It must be provided with a circuit to provide hot water. You can do without this function, but on the condition that you do not have interruptions in hot water supply.
Choosing radiators
You can use any samples (except cast iron). Radiators can be steel or aluminum. All described equipment has approximately the same characteristics. The difference lies only in the price. Therefore, based on the cost of radiators, individual heating in an apartment can be expensive or budgetary. For a cheaper option, polypropylene pipes are used. In the second case, copperproducts.
What should be the valves
In addition to pipes and a boiler, you will need various shut-off equipment. Purchase a shut-off valve that is designed for the thermal head. In this case, the equipment should be mounted diagonally. It is important to know that you can not use the bottom connection. Otherwise, temperature control will not be carried out according to the rules. Cold air enters the thermal head at the bottom, as a result, the radiator works without interruption, constantly.
Which heating scheme to choose
If there are not so many radiators in your apartment, and you decide to use a budget solution, then you can install a one-pipe system. It is, of course, not as effective as a two-pipe, the installation of which is more expedient.
However, individual heating in an apartment using this technology has proven itself well - it is currently being successfully used both in residential and work premises.
How and where to get permission to install heating
I want to warn you right away that it is very difficult to get permission for installation. Despite all the obstacles of officials, individual gas heating in the apartment is worth a little pat and talk with our bureaucrats. First you need to collect the following documents:
- application for equipment installation;
- agreement on the transfer of real estate to the ownership of the owner;
- certificate of state registration of property;
- contractdonation (if any);
- copy of the certificate of inheritance (notarized).
The package of documents is submitted to the district administration. This is not a complete list of required documents. Each case is considered separately. Individual heating in an apartment will require collecting not just a lot of papers, but a lot. You will receive an answer to your request within one and a half months from the date of submission of documents (data for the Russian Federation). Upon completion of the installation work, an acceptance certificate is issued.
I want to say right away that this is not such a cheap pleasure - individual heating in an apartment. The installation price will depend on the size of the room, but on average it ranges from 10,000 to 15,000 rubles.
