Rules for choosing a sauna stove

“Gorynych-2” and “Gorynych-3” are created from the same materials using modern technology. Therefore, when determining which one is better to buy for your own bathhouse, it is better to focus on your needs .

If the building is large and divided into 3 compartments (washing room, steam room and relaxation room), which need to be heated efficiently, “Gorynych-3” is perfect.

Peculiarities

Buyers can choose from two model options – with a tank on the right and left side. The model can only be used on the basis of baths with an individual washing compartment. Thick material ensures long service life. The thickness of the firebox is 8 millimeters. The volume of the water tank is 100 liters.

After delivery of the product, it should be stored closed in a dry room until installation.

For high reliability, manufacturers used organosilicate enamel. During the first use, a polymerization process occurs, which gives the coating its final strength.

Why choose Gorynych stoves?

Gorynych stoves are in great demand among buyers, and for good reason. They are excellent in quality and affordable. They are cheaper than structures made to order from brick by a craftsman, and they warm up the necessary rooms almost as well, if not better.

Other advantages of the models include:

• production from thick material that can withstand heavy loads;

• a simple cleaning system that allows you to cope with the process almost in the blink of an eye.

Gorynych-3

The sauna stove is intended only for saunas in which the steam room and washing compartment are separated by a partition.

One of the most important points with this layout is heating the washing compartment. This stove model allows you to heat the entire bathhouse without installing an additional boiler and heating radiators, both in spring and autumn, and in winter. The stove is heated from the dressing room (rest room), the sink and steam room are separated by a wall.

A special feature of this stove is that the partition between the sink and the steam room runs along the surface of the stove, thereby dividing it into two parts. The leader, which has no analogues, in heating baths with a separate washing compartment.

The stove perfectly warms up the rooms, both in winter and in summer: Steam room and stones - due to the pipe with exhaust combustion gases located in the heater. The washing compartment and floors are due to the heating of the tank and the protruding lower part of the firebox under the tank. The floors are heated by radiation from the firebox (you cannot lay bricks under the tank in the washing compartment). The rest room - the stove is heated from the rest room and warms it up due to the front metal part. Significantly more convenient compared to the version of the firebox made from a washing machine. To fully heat the rest room, it is advisable to install an air heating system on the stove (air from the rest room is forced into the system of air channels of the furnace, heated from the walls of the heated furnace firebox and returned to the rest room). The rest room in winter warms up very quickly in 30-40 minutes. The compact location of the stove, which is very important when dividing it into a steam room and a washing compartment. In the steam room, the heater is located along the wall and protrudes 45*70 cm (when the stove is located in the steam room, the minimum space occupied by the stove is 80*60 cm). In the washing machine, the water tank is located on the wall and occupies 30*70 cm Drawing of the stove and installation diagram of Gorynych-3 tank, right.

The stove uses the grateless principle of longitudinal combustion. The service life of the stove is more than 15 years.

Advantages and disadvantages of washing in a steam room

The biggest advantage and the main reason why a washroom is installed with a steam room in the same room is that this solution allows you to build a bathhouse with minimal dimensions of 4x4 or even 3x3. Once upon a time, the main purpose of a bathhouse in villages was the ability to wash in it. That is, even if the family was not rich, a small bathhouse was still necessary for regular bathing procedures for hygiene purposes.

Therefore, at least small but fully functional bathhouses were built, where one could wash and steam. Since the space inside such a structure is minimal, it was impossible to separate the washroom and steam room.

A bathhouse with compact dimensions makes it possible not only to save significantly on building materials, but also to install a building even in a small area. It is not always possible to allocate 25-35 square meters of space for a bathhouse, but the desire to wash and steam remains. A small-sized bathhouse requires two or even three times less space on the site, and performs the same tasks as a full-size structure.

Combining a washroom with a steam room also has its drawbacks. First of all, we need to talk about the inconvenience of taking bath procedures in a large company. Obviously, a small bathhouse is usually built either for one or two people, or for a small family. But, if you plan to use it for several people, then you must immediately take into account that you can wash only after everyone has steamed.

If you wash after steaming, the air in the steam room will become quite damp and further steaming will not be of such quality. In addition, after taking a shower, the smells of soap and shampoo remain in the room, which also adds unpleasant sensations to those who will be steaming next. So here you will have to choose: either everyone will steam and wash together, or those who will steam after someone else has already washed will have to put up with a lower-quality atmosphere in the steam room.

Another drawback is that it’s still a bit hot to wash in a heated steam room. Of course, you can get used to this, but it is better to keep this inconvenience in mind before planning the construction of a bathhouse with a combined steam room and washing room.

It has also long been noticed that when one room is used together for both steaming and showering, the floor in it requires replacement noticeably faster. And since the design of such a bathhouse is usually budget-friendly, the floor here is made from wooden planks. It is better to place all the elements in it in such a way that it is possible to replace the floorboards without much difficulty.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with: Bath complex at the dacha
The company provides a minimum guarantee of three years of service under conditions of intensive use. If you use the oven twice a week, this period will be about 15 years. The firebox is made in a spherical shape. This plays an important role in service life. The structure of the chimney consists of two elbows that go around the heater, thanks to which the efficiency increases. Their total length is 0.9 meters. The cleaning hatch is located at the end of the chimney.

Due to the spacious and open heater, a large volume of stones can be placed inside without any problems. They will maintain the required temperature in the bath for a long time.

The oxygen supply regulator is located under the door. There is no need for grates thanks to the longitudinal combustion system.

“Gorynych 3” is mounted on a concrete base prepared in advance. It is strictly forbidden to install the model on a sheet of metal for safety reasons. Be sure to check the slope of the stove towards the back wall and firebox using a building level. Minor deviation may be present. At the end, it is necessary to carefully seal the junction of the furnace with the concrete base, and it is recommended to use a special fire-resistant compound.

Facing bricks cannot be used for masonry. This material does not have sufficient resistance to high temperatures and will quickly become unusable.

Experts recommend using solid red or yellow brick (it is not necessary to lay only bricks for open fire).

In the work it is worth using a special heat-resistant composition.
