With the advent of colds, the owners of country houses are seriously necessary to think about heating their own dwellings. You can choose a traditional gas boiler that will be operated from natural gas. You can install a modern diesel heating system. But they all depend on the timely supply of organic fuel.
And when there is a need for completely autonomous heating, then gas boilers working from liquid liquefied fuel may turn out to be a worthy solution.
What are their advantages?
First of all – to a large degree of autonomy. It will be enough to season a gas cylinder that has a capacity of up to 4-6 cubic meters/m once or twice in winter, as a positive temperature will be observed in the house all the time.
Which gas is mainly used in systems of this kind?
As a rule, butane, t.To. at a price it costs an order of magnitude lower than liquid propane. It is quite easy to find a booth: it is worth contacting an ordinary vehicle company that operates liquefied fuel trucks, as a problem of finding inexpensive and calorie fuel is removed by itself.
How is the installation of the entire autonomous gas system?
A shallow foundation pit is dug up in the customer’s garden, into which a massive gas cylinder is lowered with a lifting crane. But you need to constantly remember that the gas cylinder must certainly be further from residential buildings, at least 10-12 m. This will allow you to protect the house in the case of force majeure manifestations, say in the case of a lightning or fuel leak.
As soon as the gas cylinder is installed in its landing place, the reducing gearbox Ukraine and protection against the vagus current are installed, gas heating steel pipes are carried out directly into the house, and then they are connected directly to the gas boiler and gas stove. And only now you can be sure that liquefied gas fuel will be enough not only for heating the whole house, but also for cooking.
But there is a lack of such a system – the cost of buying, installing and adjusting the entire gas equipment may be sufficient high. Sometimes prices may approach $ 8,000. But given that the cost of liquefied fuel is lower than natural gas by at least 25-35%, then it will be safe to assume that all equipment will pay off in just a few years of operation.
