How to save the thermal energy of a private house without reducing the comfort of living
Solving the problem of heat saving is a Klondike for owners of private houses. Any costs, in the future, will pay off even at current tariffs, and given the constant rise in price of fuel - you will return the invested funds very quickly.

Reduce heat loss at home
The main thing, during the construction or major alteration of an existing house is to produce high-quality insulation of the house, thereby reducing heat loss.
Modern construction methods offer a whole range of measures for the rational insulation of the building.
An important point is the correct installation of modern energy-saving windows and of doors.
Using modern building materials, it is necessary to carry out work on the insulation of walls and ceilings.
To determine the bridges of cold, it is necessary to do thermal monitoring, with which you can detect the most invisible cracks.
For such purposes, there are specialized companies that monitor heat loss with a thermal imager.
If the owner is expensive, he can purchase a personal simple remote thermometer (pyrometer) and use it to independently find all hidden slots and places for heat transmission.
Correctly select the heat boiler for power
If you want to make significant savings in heat energy, you must choose and purchase correctly boiler depending on the heating area with high efficiency.
This moment is especially important for a large house, since the larger the heated area, the more carefully you need to calculate the heat.
For example: you installed a boiler capable of providing a maximum temperature difference of 50 * C at maximum power (relative to the outside temperature).
Thus, if it is -25 * С on the street, it will be warm and comfortable in your house at a temperature of + 25 * С.
But if the temperature in the street dropped to -36 * C, then you can count on a temperature of no higher than + 14 * C in the room - and this is the best option.
So, we conclude that if you live in an extreme winter zone - your boiler must have a heat reserve of at least + 10 * С.
How to save heat in winter extreme conditions
Of course, severe frosts do not occur every year, but the possibility of such temperatures is quite acceptable in Russia.
In past times, when it was time for severe colds, all the inhabitants of the house gathered in one room.
And if this happened in the village, pets also wintered with people.
Thus, people and animals helped each other to keep warm, and sometimes life.
Nowadays, even in the village, a cow-nurse is a very rare guest, and the time is different and it is unlikely that many people will want to live in the same room with animals.
For such extreme winter cold weather, additional heaters are designed.
For living rooms are very convenient to use. electric heaters and electric heat guns.
But we must not forget that in such cold weather everyone is cold and everyone is starting to use such heaters - as a result, the load on the power grid is very much increased and the gas consumption is significantly increased.
Of course, if power allows, they increase the temperature due to the boiler. But if the boiler does not cope, it is necessary to reduce unnecessary heat loss inside the house.
If there are several rooms with separate temperature control, you can reduce the heating of several rooms.
As a result, the released energy goes to the heating of those rooms where the residents spend most of the time, and thereby the comfortable living of people increases.
If the boiler produces simultaneous heating of hot water for residents of the house, in extreme conditions, it makes sense to reduce hot water consumption.
Severe frosts usually last no more than a week and do not happen every year, so you can be patient.
Installing solar collectors - help save heat
Installing solar collectors is well involved in fuel economy.
In the summer, solar collectors can fully provide the family with hot water and gas is not required for heating the water.
In the fall and spring, solar collectors can also help reduce fuel consumption and help warm cold water to ambient temperature.
Well, in winter, at the peak of heat consumption, solar collectors are unlikely to work.
We set the optimum temperature in the house
By reducing the heating temperature by one degree, there is a saving of 6-7% of energy.
Those. If you set the optimum temperature in the house, you will significantly save gas consumption.
At the same time, it is not necessary to constantly change the temperature on the boiler, it is not necessary to constantly adjust its power and it is not at all necessary to impair living comfort, i.e. set a known low temperature on the boiler.
Any issue should be approached rationally.
A comfortable temperature in the house is needed in the morning and in the evening.
During the day, the owners are usually busy with business, move, release energy, and at night it is comfortable to sleep at a temperature of + 18 * С- + 19 * С.
Conclusion - day and night, the heating temperature can be reduced.
If the owners are not in the room - heating is also not necessary, i.e. the temperature can be reduced even more.
Modern sensors - active helpers in saving heat
Modern boilers have the ability to connect an outdoor temperature sensor, such a sensor is placed on the street.
Using an outdoor sensor, the boiler can change the heating power depending on the outdoor temperature.
Most boilers are equipped with several room temperature sensors.
The benefits of the sensors (they are inexpensive and are purchased separately) are pretty decent.
Sensors allow the boiler to regulate power not from the temperature of the coolant, but from the air temperature.
Modern boilers are equipped with sophisticated electronic control panels.
Using these panels, you can set several different heating programs: a heating program for a day, for a specific day of the week, a program for switching on or off for a specific time.
Often there is the possibility of connecting control via the Internet.
Of course, for many ordinary users, ordinary control panels with a minimum set of additional functions are enough, but for advanced users, a complex control panel is needed.
Even a simple thermostat is able to adjust the temperature in the room and significantly reduce energy consumption.
And if the boiler is provided with a correctly configured heating program, it is able to quickly change programs - it provides additional comfort and decently saves fuel.
Conclusion. When choosing a boiler, pay attention to the convenience of operating the unit. Even if a boiler with an electronic control panel is more expensive, it is worth buying, as it will quickly pay for itself.
