Stroy-Banya - Do-it-yourself Russian bathhouse or building a bathhouse in stages

From us you can order the construction of a bathhouse or sauna , as well as the construction of a sauna stove heated with wood, gas or electricity. First read this OUR ANTI-CRISIS PROGRAM WE ARE THE BEST DESIGN YOUR DREAM The main activity of the Parilka.Ru company is the construction of family Russian and Turkish baths, saunas and bath stoves . We have developed unique designs of stoves for Russian baths, summarized and comprehended the experience of building baths of various types. We build wood, gas and electric stoves for Russian baths. The stove is the main thing in the bathhouse; it largely determines whether there will be light steam in the bathhouse, and how long it will be possible to steam with a broom.

Parilka.Ru

- not a store of building materials and accessories for baths and saunas that decided to make extra money on construction. Among our achievements: Invention of a cold sauna stove for heated premises, Invention of a propane sauna stove, Invention of a real Russian electric sauna stove, Implementation of the first formulated conditions for steam formation and life of steam in a steam room, Development and implementation of the idea of a Russian sauna, And much more.

Fewer and fewer people confuse the Russian bath and sauna. More and more people are trying to figure out what they want to build before they build. However, the inertia of thinking is strong, fueled by many unscrupulous traders. The words Russian bathhouse have a magical effect. The sauna is resting. That's why they try to call everything a Russian bathhouse. A hut near a pond with a brick stove can be called a Russian bathhouse in the same sense in which bast shoes are called shoes, and a horse is called transport. No more and no less. Today, shoes are not so much comfortable as they are fashionable. Cars are more an element of taste and prestige than convenience and common sense. The bathhouse also acquired a different meaning. Now people go to the bathhouse not to wash, but to steam. An old rustic Russian bathhouse will wash you when there is no bath or shower. Steam in it is optional. Therefore, it is almost always damp and heavy. If you, spoiled by a bath and shower, go to the bathhouse, then certainly not to wash yourself. Your humble servant goes to the bathhouse without soap and a washcloth and advises you to do so. If you are able to feel the pleasure and benefits of good steam, the quality of the steam will be a decisive factor for you when choosing a sauna. First of all, the steam should be light, that is, easy to breathe. It should not fly in clouds, causing suffocation. In this case, the steam should be soft and rich enough to warm the internal organs well without burning the surface of the skin. And finally, the steam should be sufficient in quantity so that the steam room does not become “empty” and damp a minute after the steam is prepared. These are the signs of a good Russian bath. Now about the means to achieve happiness. Light steam is obtained at an evaporation temperature of at least 400 degrees, and preferably 600-700. Such steam does not fly in clouds and does not choke. The stones can only be heated to this temperature in a closed oven, which can provide sufficient thermal insulation of the stones from the steam room so as not to overheat the steam room. Brick can serve as such thermal insulation. Therefore, stoves for Russian baths are built exclusively from brick. Metal stoves of any type emit too much radiant heat into the steam room. When interacting with steam, the rays dry and burn the skin, although it may be cold in the steam room. Metal stoves can heat dry air well and quickly. A small portion of water on the stones creates the feeling of steam in the actual absence of steam itself. This is a sauna. Thus, with the help of a good brick oven we can fulfill the first two requirements for steam. The third requirement for the amount of steam is realized due to the volume of the steam room. If the steam room is less than 9 sq.m. and the height is less than 2.5 m, the quantity of steam will always be small, and instead of steam there will be dampness. It is better to make a sauna in any smaller steam room. “Opinions” regarding the size of the Russian steam room end when the question of steam room ventilation arises. There is completely different ventilation in a Russian bathhouse and a sauna. A decent family Russian sauna stove made of brick weighs from 2.5 to 6 tons. If the bathhouse does not have stationary heating, this entire mass cools down to -10 degrees. in winter. It is more difficult to warm up such a mass than a dozen “huts”. Therefore, a “quick steam bath” will not work. In addition, brick has a typical frost resistance of 40-70 cycles. If you spend 15-20 of them over the winter, you can imagine how long your stove will last. For centuries, stove heating was organized in houses with permanent residence. The stove was flooded in the fall before frost and did not cool down until spring. That's why the furnaces worked for decades. Now about fuel. A wood stove is the most capricious. When lighting a stove, soot always forms in the channels and on the stones. When the oven is heated, the soot should burn out (burn out). The soot will not burn out if the wood is rotten or damp or the design of the stove is not optimal. Firewood will become dry if it lies sawed and chopped for at least a year under a canopy. How many are ready to go to such troubles and can claim that they know how to light a stove? Naturally, gas and electric stoves are much easier to heat. In addition, many people are already complaining that it is becoming more and more difficult to buy firewood. Spontaneous collection of firewood is prohibited. People are increasingly asking to convert their wood stove to gas. Here are the difficulties you need to be prepared for in order to build a good Russian bathhouse. How to build a sauna so that steaming in it is pleasant and healthy? We are trying to answer this question on our website Parilka.Ru. This is the author's website of Alexey Razorenov. All texts on the site are written based on the author’s personal experience in the operation and construction of baths and saunas . We understand that when it comes to the construction of baths, there are so many specialists, so many opinions, and we do not pretend to have the ultimate truth.
