Quite often, in any discussion of the Russian bath can be found any comments or questions, where users expressed bewilderment about the room warming mode.
Many are confused by the fact that the furnace firebox is surrounded by a large number of stones. This question arises from a misunderstanding of how the bath furnace is arranged.
It is no accident the firebox is surrounded by stones. This is not a tribute to tradition and a necessity that must be satisfied for the stove to work properly.
To begin, we note that we will talk about the stoves, which are intended for the Russian baths. Do not confuse it with a Finnish sauna or Turkish steam bath. According to the standards for a normal Russian baths take about a ton of stones that are heated to the desired temperature. One hundred kilograms - it is not so much, do not be alarmed. The stones have a large proportion of a sufficiently small size.
One hundred kilograms of stones placed in the steam room is difficult enough. The more difficult task - to place them so that they are properly heated.
If you take the most simple, as it seems at first glance, the way inside the oven and place the stones, then imagine how big should be the oven. In addition, it is worth considering that in this situation will heat up those stones, which will be close to the firebox. Therefore, the scale of such a bath, we will not do.
But if you impose a stove stones, laying out around the firebox, you can quite easily accommodate a large amount of stones in a small area. In addition, a layer of stones is even - because of this they will be evenly heated and warm up the room. Furthermore, when the stones are laid out around the inserts, they are able to collect the maximum amount of heat from the furnace. Thus, the efficiency of the furnace will be used maximally.
In such an embodiment, the minimal amount of heat will go into the tube, and based on the amount will space heating bath.
Another reason why obkladyvat furnace stones is that a red-hot stove will give all the hard radiation stone walls, and the air is soft and not overdried - which is important for those who plan to stay long in the steam room.
So let's at the end of the article will gather all the arguments in favor of what the oven obkladyvaetsya stones:
-In this way it is possible on a small area efficiently accommodate a large number of stones and heat them to a desired temperature.
The maximal amount of heat will be taken stonework, then to give it to the steam room.
-The air masonry in the steam room will not be overdried.
That is why any oven in the Russian bath is lined with stones.
