Heating

Heating is a system that allows you to heat the air and enclosures of enclosed spaces in order to maintain a given temperature of the air or water inside the building. This system is necessary for people's comfort and safety during the cold season. Heating also plays an important role in industry and energy, helping to produce the goods and services that economies need to thrive.

The technical aspect of heating is the use of various heat sources such as electricity, gas, oil and coal. As a result, consumers can choose from many different heating systems, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Most heating systems also require regular maintenance and repair to ensure their efficiency and longevity.

The equipment used in a heating system can be quite complex and includes many functions and components. Some major components include heating elements such as gas and electric burners, heat exchangers, condensing units, pumps and manifolds. Safety is very important when working with this system, and many heating components have special valves, safety devices and even automatic shut-off systems that reduce the risk of fire or other accidents.

It is important to note that improper use of the heating system can lead to dangerous situations such as depressurization of the heating system and leakage of gases. Such situations can cause poisoning of people in the building. Therefore, it is always necessary to follow safety rules when working with heating systems and other devices.

Water is supplied to the heating system either from the city water supply or from a storage tank. Based on the volume of the system, a pump of appropriate power is selected. The heating of the coolant is monitored by the operation of the heat exchanger and its transfer. Next, radiators or heated towel rails are distributed throughout the system, where hot water or already heated coolant is supplied.

Heating is one of the main factors of comfort and coziness in any living or working space. It allows you to maintain the desired air temperature and prevent glass from freezing and fogging.

Heating systems vary in the method of transferring heat from the coolant (source of thermal energy) to the air in the room: centralized, individual (apartment). In centralized systems (hot water supply, boiler houses), the coolant is delivered to buildings through pipelines. The individual method is used in buildings with individual heating.

Based on the source of thermal energy, heating systems are divided into water and steam. In the first, the heat-transfer liquid is water, in the second, steam. Water systems are used in most cases; This is due to the fact that water vapor is the most common heat source and is safer and cheaper than steam. Based on the type of coolant (coolant and heat exchanger), these systems are divided into two groups: water and mixed heat exchange systems.

There are several main ways to heat the coolant in heating systems: a water boiler or stove, a gas burner. In addition, there is a thermometric system using a heat pump - electropod
