The specifics of heating non-residential premises are lower requirements for the climate in these rooms. This may be a reduced amount of oxygen, unacceptable for residential premises and an increased amount of carbon dioxide and other exhaust gases. Owing to these requirements, the owners of such premises are trying to save on the cost of heating, which is quite expensive in today's world. Such premises may include garages, warehouses, repair shops and much more.
The principle of operation of the device
Standard or common types of fuel in such rooms are considered quite expensive and the owners are trying to use a cheaper option of fuel. One of these options is the development of technical oil. It can be motor, transmission or transformer oil.
Important. Which oil would not be selected in any case, it should be cleaned, not only from mechanical impurities, but also from chemical ones, and this can become a problem at home.
So, let's figure out what mining is. This is oil that has fulfilled its task when working inside the engine or other elements of a car or tractor. Mining in large industries is an unaccounted byproduct that can be donated for free or for a small fee.
In terms of chemical composition, it is a carbon compound obtained after processing oil to produce lighter fractions such as gasoline or solarium. And having a good ability not only to burn but also to generate heat.
DIY do-it-yourself oil furnaces have the following advantages:
- Simplicity of construction;
- Inexpensive fuel;
- Large reserves of this fuel, especially in large enterprises.
The disadvantages of furnaces include:
- The presence of open flame, which means a lack of oxygen in the room.
- Lack of combustion rate control systems or they are very expensive.
- Difficult setup of the system for complete combustion of fuel.
The mining furnace is designed in such a way that there are two combustion chambers in it. In the first chamber, the used oil is directly burned, emitting a lot of a wide variety of gases, heated to high temperatures. A portion of oxygen from the air is mixed into these gases and this mixture enters the chamber two, where this mixture is finally burned and a large amount of heat is released.
Drawing for creating a do-it-yourself kiln
On the Internet there is a large number of original developments of waste oil stoves. All these developments are on public display and their authors are not only ready to share the secrets of their developments, but are also ready to help readers who would like to assemble such a stove with their own hands. On sites on the Internet there are a lot of photos of existing stoves, and on many there is even a video of their work.
Most often, such stoves are made from auxiliary materials, which are quite a lot in garages and household plots. For the manufacture of furnaces, sheet metal with a thickness of more than 4 mm is often used. Or, as many craftsmen have noticed, a used gas bottle is suitable.
It is not difficult to get the remaining structural elements and a minimal set of locksmith tools is required.
Apparatus assembly
According to the reviews of the owners of existing stoves, the assembly of such a device is not difficult. This work does not require particularly precise details. Step-by-step instructions for assembling and setting up a waste oil furnace are also easy to find on the Internet.
Important to remember! Before starting commissioning, it is important to carefully check the quality of the furnace assembly and the absence of fuel leaks.
You can save on heating non-residential premises, while you should not invest heavily in this business. Using auxiliary materials, it is possible to manufacture and install a compact furnace with used oil and heat a non-residential premises.
