The comfort in our home largely depends on how the heating in the house is regulated. This applies more to private households or to apartments with an individual heating system.
Inside each boiler , a thermostat is placed, which protects the system from overheating. That is, as soon as the temperature of the heat transfer fluid inside the unit (boiler) rises to the maximum permissible limit, the contacts close and the equipment switches off automatically.
The same happens when the heating medium in the heating system cools down and at a critical temperature decrease the boiler is switched on again and starts to pump the water temperature in the system.
Such devices are called built-in bellows thermostats of gas boilers and they are a simple system consisting of a copper tube-bulb filled with a special solution, which reacts sensitively to the temperature change. As soon as overheating or cooling of the substance occurs, the bellows descends or rises, closing or opening the contacts mechanically.
Thermostat for a solid fuel boiler
It is not correct to think that wood and coal boilers are a relic of the past. After all, now in times of total economy such equipment again takes a firm position in the market. Modern solid fuel boilers can work on pellets (bracketed waste of sunflower, straw, etc.), as well as on wood and any solid fuel.
An important component for such a heating boiler is a thermostat, which can be automatic or mechanical. Automation will require wiring in the house, in order for the pump, fan and temperature sensor to work. For mechanics, light is not required, and this simple, at first glance, system, wins in many respects.
Wireless and wire thermostat for gas boiler
In order to maintain a comfortable temperature in a residential building, it will be necessary to constantly be on call and when it is too hot in the home to reduce the flame in the burner. Or on the contrary - as soon as it became colder on the street, it is necessary to increase the fire in the boiler in order to avoid cooling the living quarters.
This, sometimes tedious running to the boiler can be avoided by installing an outdoor thermostat. The principle of its action is to replace the person without which the automatic adjustment of the flame force in the boiler is performed, depending on changes in the ambient temperature in the rooms.
There are two types of such thermostats. One of them is wired, which means that the installation of such a climatic equipment is made at the repair stage, because otherwise, after strobing the walls into which all kinds of wires will be walled up, there will be no trace left of the decor . Therefore, the best option will be a wireless thermostat that works by radio signal from the transmitter to the receiver, which can be bundled in several - by the number of rooms in the house or one.
Internal filling, consisting of electronics, requires careful treatment.
One receiver unit is attached directly to the boiler in order to regulate the switching on and off of the unit. Second - the transmitter is fixed in the living room, the temperature in which it is necessary to measure.
The advantage of wireless electronic temperature controllers is that they can be programmed for any temperature that is comfortable for this room, as well as on days of the week and time, which is very convenient, for example, for people who are not at home for a long time and do not need to heat an empty room.
