Bath oven.
An integral attribute of any bath is an oven. Actually, there will be no bath without it, because it is the stove that creates steam and serves as a water heater. Over time, the design of the furnaces has undergone significant changes, but their design, consisting of a furnace, blown, cameras for stones and chimney, remained the same. When making a choice, it remains only to evaluate the size, power and reliability of the presented furnaces models.
The bath stove should be proportional to the area and volume of the steam room – this information is contained in the leadership. It is desirable that the stove takes up a little space, is quite economical, but performs various functions. Give preference to stoves with an average power supply. It is important that the furnace is safe and eliminates the slightest possibility of fire, obtaining burns or poisoning with carbon monoxide.
Foreign and domestic manufacturers offer customers a wide selection of various furnaces made of steel and cast iron. Cast iron bath stoves are most durable, reliable and perfectly maintain heat in the steam room. Models lined with brick give a smooth soft heat. Compared to cast iron, steel furnaces are significantly inferior in price, which is an indisputable advantage. Some stoves are equipped with a protective casing that protects against infrared radiation. All furnaces are offered complete with a tank containing up to 250 kg of stones.
The duration of heat retention directly depends on the number of stones: the larger there are, the longer the warmth is in the bath. For the heater, a wild stone is well suited, which comes with a stove or is purchased separately.
Wooden stoves are of particular interest. Firewood is a natural product, and the air in a bath stolen by wood will be more aromatic and even useful. In addition, opening the furnace, you can admire the dancing flames and, like living, smoldering coals.
Electric stoves are in great demand. They are convenient in that there is no need to arrange a chimney, and the time of operation and the desired temperature easily program.
Another variety of bath furnaces works on gas. They are made of metal, and the heater is closed. If such a design is covered with bricks, then a real Russian stove will get from it.
