Stoves for a bath - Vesuvius

Inexpensive bath stoves Vesuvius bribes primarily in price. She is democratic. At the same time, the stoves are made of cast iron, quite thick - 8 - 12 mm in different places. Therefore, they are distinguished by reliability and durability (the manufacturer says about 30 years of real service ...) and at the same time they are extremely cheap.

Thick cast iron - the basis of the sauna stove

The housing of the Vesuvius bath stoves is often made of cast iron, which users like. But you can find options and completely steel ...

The furnace chamber of the iron consists of two main components: the lower part of the furnace, the upper part of the furnace, connected to the bottom by 4 bolts, and a heat-resistant cord is laid between them. Above, a cap is attached to the bolts to which the chimney is attached.

There are two removable cast iron elements:

  • above the combustion chamber is a figured flame chipper, which must be set to the position according to the instructions,
  • at the bottom of the firebox there is a grate.

The furnace door is also made of cast iron, it is possible to design with heat-resistant glass. Fencing lattices and an ash pan are made of steel.

For all the price is small - from 250 - 350 cu for smaller models in the line, and up to $ 500 for average sizes ...

What size…

Manufacturers of metal bath stoves are looking for a compromise between the size of the combustion chamber and the price. On the one hand, a large furnace stove for a bath is good, it will fit a lot of long logs, increasing the comfort of preparing firewood and servicing the stove and the energy efficiency from opening one door ...

On the other hand, the price and weight of the product is growing, consumers simply will not take too expensive a stove. Did Vesuvius manage to find a middle ground in this matter ...

As many have noted, firewood needs to be shortened, since 50 cm are already outside the chamber, although they are acceptable for use, but at the same time, the combustion chamber is sufficient in volume to heat the steam room in one tab ...

Overview of the model range and the choice of a sauna stove

Arriving at the store you can find a number of different models of the Vesuvius sauna stove.

  • First of all, it is necessary to distinguish between sizes. Each dimension is designed for its steam room volume from 6 - 14 cubic meters, and up to several tens. The highest demand is average, designed for 12 - 24 cubic meters.
  • Further - a fundamental question: a steel case or cast iron? Experts recommend cast iron for a sauna stove, which is purchased for decades, ... You can see that the company offers excellent casting, and cast iron is really thick, an average of 10 mm.
  • Door with or without glass ... Glass creates the effect of a fireplace, you can see the flame, and visually control combustion. But it will come in handy when they are often in the dressing room ...
  • With additional closed heater and steam generator or simplified design. An additional steam generator simplifies the saturation of the room with steam and the speedy conversion of the Finnish dry steam room to wet Russian ... This is in demand.

Characteristic "Rusich"

For example, the Rusich lineup incorporates the experience of many specialists in the field of heating technology, therefore it combines high performance and modern design.

Furnaces for a bath Vesuvius Rusich

The Vesuvius Rusich furnace, judging by the reviews, is the fastest in heating the bath. All models are equipped with a volumetric ventilated open-type heater - it is this feature that makes it possible to heat stones immediately from four sides in a very short period of time. The weight of the stones is 40kg. These furnaces are equipped with an external convection hood. It is he who helps to accelerate the process of heating the stones due to the formation of a sufficiently powerful convection stream in the steam room. The stoves for the Vesuvius Rusich bathhouse, according to reviews, are not only very fast, but also quite reliable, so they can easily last for several decades.

"Scythian" - slowly but surely

Furnaces for a bath "Vesuvius Skiff" according to reviews are quite reliable. A lot more stones are placed in the grid than even in Rusich. This is possible due to the fact that the engineers added one design feature - a special mesh is used instead of the casing. A large volume of stones reduces the dose of thermal radiation from the body. You can choose any stones depending on your preferences - raspberry or white quartz, jadeite, a coil and others.

The Vesuvius Skif stove-heater is distinguished by the fact that the grate is separated from the firebox by the grate, and the grate serves to constantly supply air for active combustion. This solution provides a fairly good and uniform combustion process throughout the furnace. With the help of this ash pan, it is possible to regulate the intensity of the flame. It is possible to equip the “Skiff” with an external tank, which is rare for such a design.

The furnace for a bath Vesuvius Skiff

Reviews from these stoves are not bad. For example, the Vesuvius Skif 16 Panorama stove (the so-called complete set with a wide panoramic door in the figure on the left) is specifically designed for large companies who like to sit in a bathhouse for a long time. Although it is not the fastest heating time, it retains heat the longest. Stones in this modification fit 130kg.

It is best to install the "Vesuvius" in the wall between the steam room and the relaxation room - it is possible to equip with a special elongated combustion chamber. Then it warms up not only the twin room itself, but also another room rather quickly and evenly.

The sauna stove "Vesuvius 22" also proved to be quite good among buyers, because it has an all-welded design, so it can create a special atmosphere in the steam room itself. It is not heated very quickly, but it retains heat for a long time. The mass of stones can reach up to 150 kg.

The chimney of this "Vesuvius" is standard - 115 mm. Reviews indicate that using such a furnace is quite comfortable.

"Legend" - its main characteristics

The cast-iron furnace "Vesuvius Legend" guarantees its users a coefficient of performance that is close to 80%. For a cast iron stove, it quickly warms up the room. At the same time, the material from which the furnace itself is made is difficult to deform from exposure to very high temperatures, which is extremely important to maintain its presentable appearance and preserve the integrity of the seams. Up to 160 kg of stones are placed in a large grid, which covers the entire furnace, which with the mass of the furnace (160 kg) is significant weight. Therefore, either take care of the foundation (preferably) or strengthen the logs at the installation site. "Legend" will be able to perfectly heat a room from 10 to 28 cubic meters. m

Vesuvius Premium stoves - what to expect from them

Bath stoves of the Premium line include two modifications: Vesuvius Elite (22 and 26) and Russian Steam with a similar finish. According to reviews, it is ideally suited for heating air up to approximately 140 ° C in paired rooms with a scale of up to 22 cubic meters. They have a stylish design, as well as a cladding made of a coil, which damps hard thermal radiation from the metal. It is equally important that the doors are equipped with large heat-resistant glass. The main feature is that it can also be heated from an adjacent room, because it has an external firebox. The best fuel in this case will be considered wood briquettes, or dry wood.

Premium class Vesuvius bath stoves

“Lava” - a fireplace-type sauna stove

The manufacturer promises that 40 kg of stones in the heater will heat up to 350 ° C, will maintain the temperature in the steam room for a long time even after you have already stopped throwing firewood. The furnace of this model was developed for quick heating. It is made of structural steel, in places up to 12mm thick. The intensity of burning wood, and hence the temperature in the steam room, is regulated by an ash pan - put it out, and the wood burns intensely, pushes in - they smolder more than they burn. You can put such an oven in steam rooms from 8 to 28 m 3, depending on the modification.

"Vesuvius Russian steam" - a stove for a bath

This furnace was developed to create the air conditions inherent in the Russian steam room: high humidity with "light" dry steam and a relatively low temperature (50-70 ° C). In addition to the stove-net around the case, there is a closed stove in the upper part of the combustion chamber. Access to it is organized through a cast-iron door on the rear side of the furnace. The temperature of the stones in the closed heater rises to 400 ° C, which allows steam to make it drier and lighter.

Bath stoves Vesuvius Russian steam - adapted for the Russian steam room

By supplying water to this closed heater, the steam is really lighter. But most of the fans of the Russian steam room say that they get real steam only at temperatures from 500 ° C. Although, when compared with other models, this one is more suitable for a Russian bath. The option is not perfect, but worthy. In fairness, it must be said that the ideal steam can be "extracted" only from a brick sauna stove, and then it was built by a master and expertly melted.

"Vertical" - only up

A powerful bath stove, stretched up - its height is 1050 mm, the mass of stones - up to 140 kg. An enlarged combustion chamber, a long furnace tunnel - all the developments of "Vesuvius" for the most rapid heating of the steam room. These stoves are designed for steam rooms 8-18m 3. The grate for stones is forged, which gives the model a certain charm. It can be equipped with a remote fire chamber or a door with glass.

Furnaces for a bath Vesuvius Vertical - high and narrow

Vesuvius Optimum - rationality and no frills

The budget option of the Optimum sauna stove is nothing more. Everything is thought out and rational. A welded (and not forged like most models) stone basket, a cast-iron door with or without an external firebox - these are all the modifications. The furnace is made of metal 5 mm thick, the furnace tunnel is 200 cm, stones are placed 65 kg quite good characteristics. These furnaces are designed for rooms up to 14m 3.

Kamenka stove Vesuvius Optimum - rationally and nothing more

Installation diagram of the Vesuvius furnace

In any case, the installation of any equipment requires a lot of effort and most often only an experienced specialist can handle it. During installation, the furnace itself must be installed on a stand of non-combustible material with a thickness of at least 20 cm or on a refractory foundation. The distance from an unprotected wooden wall must be at least 50 cm. If you decide to protect the wall with a special metal sheet, and it will be made of non-combustible material, the distance can be reduced to a maximum of 38 cm. What screens are there and how to mount them in the article “ The protective screen for the bath stove. What are and how to do it yourself ”

Another no less important recommendation is to cover the wall to which the stove is closest with special protective plates made of pharmacy stone. When heated, they will release therapeutic substances, and from the bath you will receive a full-fledged healing effect. Many experts propose to trim most of the wire frame during installation. After that, the wall is laid out in the so-called half-brick and can be equipped with two doors that are made of cast iron. The result of this improvement will be that the stones are laid only on top. True, the question arises: why then buy a stove-net, then to trim it?

A spoon of tar

Recently, a video caught my eye in which an indignant Vesuvius customer saws a stove. How is he outraged? The fact is that the manufacturer claims that the furnace is made of 8mm steel. And the top of the firebox really has that thickness. BUT. All other walls are much thinner. To demonstrate this and see for himself, a man saws a stove. It did not seem to us that this was a montage or a “setup”. And the oven is new, with Skiff stickers. And the installation is not visible, but in the evaluation of the video we are not experts ... Why not upload the video? There is a lot of profanity there. It’s very difficult to restrain a person’s emotions - it’s unpleasant when they deceive. You can find and evaluate a video, make your own opinion yourself. This is the rare case when we send you to search for information on the Internet, but we can neither publish nor provide a link. By listening, you yourself will understand why. And the video is called symbolically "Cut Vesuvius." Watch and draw conclusions.

I must say that the reviews about "Vesuvius" are really about the stoves in the vast majority of positive. But you can’t argue against video fact.

Vesuvius furnace range

Actually, there are two model lines: steel and cast-iron furnaces. The first includes 7 items:

The entire model range covers a wide range of sizes of steam rooms - from a volume of 6 m3 to 40 m3. Details on the characteristics of each series will be discussed below, and now we will present a list of the names of cast-iron bath stoves:

Here, the paired range is a bit narrower: from 8 to 30 m3, as well as the number of modifications. The fact is that cast iron products are significantly more expensive than steel, therefore the demand for them is less. That does not mean the poor quality of the products, at the moment the reviews on the Vesuvius trademark are overwhelmingly good.

Steel Furnace Overview

The Optimum series opens the lineup, which is designed for heating with a small steam volume from 6 to 14 m3 and includes 2 modifications. The difference between them is that one stove is heated directly from the steam room, and the second from the adjacent room. The length of the external firebox is 25 cm. The design of the heaters can be seen in the figure:

Despite its small size (650 x 560 x 490), the Vesuvius Optimum furnace is quite massive - 53 kg. The reason is the thickness of the metal from which the combustion chamber is welded, the diagram shows that it is 5 mm. In addition, a metal partition is installed inside the firebox, which prevents the direct passage of combustion products into the chimney. This increases the heat dissipation of the chamber, which is surrounded on all sides by a ventilated open heater.

The rest of the design is classic, a grate is built into the bottom of the firebox, and an ash pan drawer is located under it. With its help, the combustion air is controlled. These furnaces for the Vesuvius bathhouse are equipped only with a blank loading door and are considered a budget option.

Series "Skiff"

The difference from the "Optimum" here is expressed in the configuration of the partition, which makes the flue gases more efficiently transfer heat around it. In addition, the upper and rear walls of the combustion chamber are reinforced, where the metal thickness reaches 8 mm. At the same time, as conceived by the designers, the side walls “lost weight” up to 4 mm. By the way, in the manufacture of Vesuvius furnaces, stainless steel is not used, hence the reasonable price of the products. The device of the Skif furnace is shown in the diagram:

From the diagram it is noticeable that the device of the ash pan and the heater remained the same: accordingly, a drawer and a cylindrical mesh for holding stones. The series includes 5 ranges of furnaces, each of which is designed for a certain steam room, starting from 6 m3 and ending with a volume of 40 m3.

Bath heaters Vesuvius "Skif" cover the widest range of thermal capacities, the series includes the largest number of furnaces - 36.

Skiff wood-burning stoves are equipped with an extended package of options. This includes a hinged tank for heating water with a capacity of 30 liters or more, heat-resistant and panoramic glass instead of a blank loading door.Thanks to the combustion chamber advanced forward, it is possible to heat both directly from the steam room and in an adjacent room.

Series "Typhoon"

Under this name, 9 units are produced, adapted for heating rooms from 6 to 30 m3. The design of the fuel chamber and the Typhoon gas duct system does not shine with originality and almost completely repeats the Skif model. The difference lies in the shape of the heater, which from a cylindrical has turned into a rectangular one. The heater is ventilated and also open on all sides.

The manufacturer declares that some elements of the furnace that are most exposed to fire are made of carbon steel 12 mm thick. True, he does not indicate what these elements are. Otherwise, the metal remained the same - on the side walls of 4 mm, the back and top - 8 mm. In all furnaces a firebox with a remote channel is provided. The offset is standard, 25 cm.

If we talk about options, then the Vesuvius Typhoon furnace boasts 2 types of sight glasses:

  • heat resistant, built into a standard door for filling fuel.
  • panoramic, with dimensions 41 x 41 cm.

In versions with sight glasses, it is possible to regulate the air supply to the furnace using a special damper. There is also the option of installing a hinged tank for heating water.

Series "Rusich", "Lava"

These 2 series include 24 and 27 modifications, respectively, installed in steam rooms from 6 to 30 m3. The inner working part again remained unchanged, as did the thickness of the metal walls. But the rectangular or cylindrical heater is open only from above, on the sides it is fenced with a convection casing with grooves made for the passage of air.

"Rusich" or "Lava" is well suited for those people who can not tolerate direct heat coming from the stove in the form of infrared radiation. The barrier on its way is a convection casing, and through it there is ventilation of the heater.

In fact, all furnaces have the same body (Rusich - rectangular, Lava - round). A variety of modifications is achieved through various configuration options, which includes:

  • remote channel for the furnace from an adjacent room,
  • refractory and panoramic glass.

According to the company’s representatives, the purchase and installation of one of these series ovens will give the steam room the fastest heating, while the heater temperature can reach 350 ° С. So the presence in the design of the outer casing is very useful here.

Most common models

Among those who like to take a steam bath, the Vesuvius bath stove, which has successfully established itself in the Russian and other markets, is in great demand. For many buyers, the choice of this brand becomes obvious after they become familiar with the features and advantages of the product.

The Vesuvi company made sure that the designs were efficient, productive, operated correctly and predictably, and met all safety requirements.

Oven "Vesuvius Legend"

  1. "Legend" - a heavyweight cast-iron construction made of a special alloy,
  2. "Skiff" - made of structural steel,
  3. "Hurricane" is a cast-iron model,
  4. "Vesuvius vertical" - furnace material: steel,
  5. "Russian steam" - from structural steel,
  6. Vesuvius Elite - steel structure.
      The family of furnaces of this manufacturer has its own characteristics and differences.

    The main advantages of models

    Vesuvius Hurricane furnace

    • Efficiency reaches 80%,
    • Moderate fuel consumption is noted,
    • Products are compact and ergonomic,
    • Some models operate in self-cleaning door glass from soot and soot,
    • Convenient use of dampers is noted,

    • Accurate assembly and attractive appearance of devices.

    For all furnace options, a sufficiently large stone tank is provided. The stones heat up to 400 ° C, and with the help of water they guarantee excellent steam. Open-type models do not create a special load, so they can be installed without arranging the foundation with the floor.

    Design features of Vesuvius furnaces

    Technical and operational specifications

    A common characteristic for all models is the same chimney diameter - 115 mm. For all other parameters, each individual version of the furnace has its own operational and technical differences:

      The constructions welded from cast iron, the manufacturer guarantees a long working life of at least 30 years. This operating period corresponds to an open-type furnace for the Vesuvius Legend bath. Kamenka "Legend" weighing 92 kg with a wall thickness of 12 mm is designed in two parts, has cast elements, is characterized by high strength and tightness.

    The material of the product withstands the highest thermal stresses, red-hot walls are able to withstand the effects of cold water. The furnace has a top connection to the chimney, the furnace tunnel is 25 cm. The steam room volume ranges from 12 - 28 m3. A large model range is characterized by the design of the furnace for use in the Vesuvius Skif bath. Low-power steel models of the open type are designed for small steam rooms - from 6 to 12 m3. More productive options provide heat to a steam room up to 22 m3.

    The lightest design weighs 61 kg, the heaviest - 70 kg. From 100 kg to 160 kg of stones are respectively placed in the compartment. Models are made of steel 8 mm thick. The weighty floor design "Hurricane", like other lines, has analogues that differ in power and size. Some parameters of the model are identical to "Legend".

    This is the thickness of the walls of cast iron, a structural feature of the door. A distinctive feature of this heater is a closed casing that holds up to 80 kg of filler and an open mesh. The furnace for a home bath Vesuvius "Hurricane" adapted for laying 220 kg of stones. The volume of the steam room is from 8 to 28 m3, the furnace tunnel is 25 cm.

In total, all types of bath stoves meet quality standards, which correspond to the declared characteristics. Product quality is confirmed by certificates and a guarantee from the manufacturer.

Which model to choose

The issue of purchasing a heating furnace becomes relevant at the end of the construction of the bathhouse or when it is necessary to replace an outdated structure. Having decided that Vesuvius is the most win-win option, the buyer can only choose the right model for your taste and budget.

Vesuvius Elite stove

For a Russian steam room, where not dry, but humid air should be present, it is advisable to choose a model of a closed sample having a shielded furnace body. This will provide a gentle supply of heat, without overheating the bath.

It is reasonable for those who are interested in heating a room adjacent to the bathhouse to choose a sauna stove with an external firebox. The arrangement of the fuel door in the dressing room protects the steam room itself from excessive burning of oxygen.

Requires careful attention and the selection of a steam generator. Some stones used as a filler can emit carbon monoxide into the steam room. Stones for the stove are best chosen in specialized stores where only certified products will be offered to the buyer.

Based on operational characteristics, each model is marked according to a number of signs. For example, the abbreviation "VK" means that the furnace furnace refers to a remote design. The digital combination indicates the volume of the steam room for one or another modification.

Furnace installation

Regardless of the specific modification of the furnace, it is necessary to adhere to the general rules and installation requirements. When installing any model of the Vesuvius furnace, fire safety is a priority. It is necessary to purchase a special metal sheet and fence in advance to equip the place where the unit will be installed.

The surface of the wooden wall must be protected from the stove with basalt wool and a protective plate. Even at the design stage of the bath room, it is important to determine the need for additional ventilation. As a rule, factory purchased furnaces do not require insulating material. However, a makeshift brickwork barrier will prevent the unit from cooling quickly.

Special skills require the installation of the furnace in a bath with a remote firebox. Installation of the unit with an external firebox presents some difficulties. Before installing such structures, it is necessary to pay attention to the dimensions and configuration of sizes, and also carefully study the structural features of the steam generating device.

The heat output of the unit must be taken into account. The main thing that needs to be provided is the ability to fully open the furnace door. In some cases, you have to consider the option when the firebox is taken out into the street.

For efficient steam movement, experienced bath attendants recommend laying stones only on top of the structure.

An example of the design and characteristics of a bath furnace for 450 cu

For example, you can consider the size and design of the bath furnace designed for an average steam room with a volume of 12 - 24 meters cubic. The model is called LEGEND22, made of cast iron.

  • It is drowned from the adjacent room
  • Height, mm 680
  • Width, mm 560
  • Depth 750 mm
  • Weight of stones, kg 180
  • Diameter of the chimney, mm 115
  • The volume of the steam room, m3 12-24

How to equip a steam room with a sauna stove Vesuvius

When installing the furnace, it is imperative to comply with the requirements of the fire department and the manufacturer's instructions in this regard. The instruction is attached to the oven.

In particular, it is necessary to create fireproof non-combustible sections of the enclosing surfaces — the floor, the ceiling, and the walls, with the indicated dimensions, at the installation site of the furnace. There are also a number of rules for arranging a chimney passing through the roof.

But all this does not make much sense if you do not create a reliable and environmentally friendly thermal insulation of the steam room. How to insulate a steam room

In the video - an example of the design of the steam room with a bathing stove VESUVIY.

Series "Russian steam" and "Premium"

A somewhat elongated round shape of the Russian Steam heaters is due to changes in the internal structure. Here, directly above the combustion chamber and the secondary gas duct, an additional completely closed heater is arranged, which takes away heat from hot flue gases.

Due to this, its maximum temperature can reach 400 ° C. Outside there is a second heater, limited by a powerful cylindrical mesh, that surrounds the furnace body on all sides. To fill the internal cavity with stones, a separate opening is provided in the upper part of the furnace.

The range includes only 5 modifications, providing heat rooms with volumes from 14 to 30 m3. The package includes the same accessories as in the previous series. They also became the basis for the development of premium stoves "Elite".

This means that the Vesuvius Skif sauna stove was taken and finished with decorative stone (talc magnesite or green coil). For another modification, the “Russian steam” unit served as the basis, all in all, under the name “Elite”, there are 5 heaters for steam rooms of 12-30 m3.

Cast iron stoves

Structurally, these units are almost identical to their steel "brothers." A similar combustion chamber with an ash box, two-way smoke circulation and the presence of an open-type heater enclosed by a mesh. The difference is that the firebox is a cast iron 12 mm thick with outer ribs. They perform 2 functions: give the body rigidity and provide intense heat transfer.

The cast-iron stove Vesuvius is produced in two types - “Legend” and “Hurricane”. Accordingly, 11 and 3 modifications are intended to serve a steam room of 8-30 m3 of volume. The design is as varied as that of steel heaters - different types of glass, an external tunnel and a tank for washing water.

Rational choice

For the post-warranty period of operation of the heater, the availability of spare components is of no small importance. Vesuvius today produces enough spare parts to provide people with spare parts if necessary. There are no problems in order to pick up additional equipment and accessories: heat exchangers, tanks, steam-generating stones, firewood baskets and other necessary and useful things for the bath.

When choosing the right model, you need to think through all the details. The heated area is taken into account, from which you first need to build on when buying a product. The choice of the furnace also depends on how actively the use of the unit is expected. With intensive use, it is rational to choose models of cast iron, as the most resistant to long-term temperature effects of the material.

Going to the store for such an important purchase, it makes sense to bring along an all-knowing and experienced attendant who is well-versed in this matter. If you want to buy a quality stove without overpaying, the Vesuvius stoves fully meet the basic requirements.

Hardware Specifications

The stove from the Vesuvius brand is distinguished by a system of pipes relating to sections of the furnace. They are placed so that when sucked from the floor, the cold air masses rise up and heat up. The manufacturer produces products with the following characteristics:

  • wall thickness depending on the zone of the furnace - from 8 to 12 mm,
  • air heating - from 60 to 150 degrees,
  • long burning - from 7 to 8 hours after heating,
  • productivity - a small unit is able to pass 4.5 m3 of air per minute,
  • different volume of the steam room - from 6 to 50 m3,
  • the volume of the combustion chamber is from 14 to 30 m2,
  • the maximum heating temperature of the product is 1200 degrees,
  • standard chimney diameter - 115 mm,
  • the depth of the furnace tunnel is 290 mm.

Models have a rounded shape, which contributes to an even distribution of heat throughout the room. The all-welded outer casing of the plates is bolted together. For high-quality heating of stones, an external mesh or door is used. The manufacturer's warranty on the entire range of furnaces is 35 years.

Using the Vesuvius stove, you can heat the room up to 350 m2.

Benefits of Vesuvius Furnaces

The Vesuvius furnace is safe due to bolt or welding fastening of parts. The joints of the elements of the furnaces are processed using a ceramic seam, which allows you to withstand high temperatures without damage. Universal equipment, which has many advantages, is equipped with a Russian bath or Finnish sauna.

Durability

Cast iron is a material that does not deform at high temperature, which is why the equipment has been in operation for more than 30 years. Solid rectangular grates are nearby and do not crack when heated. The stove is not subject to corrosion, therefore, does not require heat-resistant staining or anti-corrosion treatment.

Versatility

The owner of the bath, sauna, greenhouse or workshop can install a stove with good heat dissipation. The equipment is easy to operate, capacious firebox for firewood. For baths, a closed type of heater is suitable, which allows generating wet steam.

A water tank is not supplied with the furnace, but the manufacturer proposes to purchase a 55-125 liter Vesuvius boiler.

Cooking Ability

For a summer residence or a country house of temporary residence, you can not purchase cooking equipment. For cooking, the upper horizontal surface of the unit is suitable. The only condition is to use the right utensils.Pig-iron utensils are compatible with stoves, which evenly warms up, preserves the taste of the products and keeps them warm for several hours.

For equipment with a small volume of the furnace during cooking, it is necessary to reduce traction.

Efficiency & Cost Efficiency

The technology of forced convection provides quick heating of rooms. Due to the system of channels, air exchange is accelerated - the heater is able to work in rooms with a volume of 100-150 cubic meters.

The stone container can hold up to 60 kg. The material fits into the compartment between the casing and the furnace, heats up to 400 degrees and gives good steam. The blower and the working area have a special configuration - the device works for 2-3 hours after one fuel tab.

The blower is made as a pipe embedded in the loading hatch, due to which a single-door system is realized. This allows you to quickly light the furnace and clean the ash.

The organosilicon protection of the case excludes its deformation and rusting under the influence of moisture, high temperature.

Only firewood, bark, wood chips and shavings can be laid in the firebox. When using coal, the body overheats, welded joints crack.

Easy installation

A cast-iron stove for a Vesuvius bath is sold in a complete assembly, it is simply placed indoors. To organize a fireplace in a workshop or a country house, the products are bricked up, leaving holes on the side to remove warm air. Before installing the device, a chimney is equipped.

If the stove is used as a heating unit, it is necessary to completely change the piping system in the house.
