Help on Tele2, tariffs, questions

Most apartments and houses in our country are traditional. It has many advantages, especially time-tested reliability. However, it has a drawback - unesthetic type of communications. As a result, no matter how beautiful the design of the interior may be, it can quite easily be spoiled by pipes that are located along the walls. Moreover, they will spoil the view if there is an intersection between them.

But there are ways to eliminate such shortcomings. Therefore, you should think about how best to hide heating pipes directly at the construction stage. Of course, this is the best option, but even when completing repairs, there are ways to hide heating pipes.

Options for masking heating pipes

• placement of pipes in floors and walls;
• placement in a plasterboard box;
• use of decorative screens.

Hidden pipes are convenient and beautiful

Each of the above options has its own advantages as well as disadvantages. Therefore, let's look at each of them in more detail.

Placing pipes in walls and floors

Before you start planning the installation of pipes in a wall or floor, you should keep in mind that it is advisable to replace old lines with new ones. Otherwise, you can expect significant problems in the form of leaks and the need for repeated repairs.

Sealing pipes in the wall

The option will do during . It will involve the following stages of work:

Sealing pipes in the floor

Important! The floor screed on top of the pipes must be of sufficient thickness so that it does not break during operation of the room, as a result of which the pipe is not subject to deformation.

However, this option has a drawback - if it leaks, the gate will need to be broken and repaired. In any case, efforts should be made to minimize or avoid joints, as the durability and strength of the joints will be inferior to that of a solid pipe.

This option is similar warm floor. Therefore, you can consider the option of creating a heated floor system.

Placement in a plasterboard box

This option is the most cheap way for concealed placement of pipes. Drywall is easy to process, and it can be used to create a frame of almost any shape. Having installed this box, you will only need to finish it. Modern finishing materials are suitable for this - lining, tiles, stucco, wallpaper, and so on.

With the help of such a box it will be possible to create unique design, which is suitable for hiding pipes, as well as for forming niches for radiators or batteries. To service them, hatches can be provided in this box, which will make it possible to carry out repairs or service them.

The plasterboard frame is made as follows

1. It is necessary to mark the contours of the future frame using a plumb line, level, ruler, or pencil.
2. Next, a guide metal profile is installed along the drawn lines. Fastening is carried out using shock-absorbing tape or dowels.
3. Then the elements of the racks are inserted into the profile, the profiles are fastened to each other using metal screws.
4. The formed frame should be covered with plasterboard. To attach it to the frame, screws are used. To prevent them from sticking out, they are embedded into the drywall no more than 1 mm.
5. The seams, as well as the fastening points, are sealed with putty.
6. For reliability, internal and external corners reinforced with corners metal profiles.
7. The finished structure should be primed and, if necessary, puttied.
8. Finally carry out finishing boxes

Advantages of placing pipes in a plasterboard box

• quick installation and comparatively low cost.
• If you need access to the pipes, you can get to them without problems. If technological openings are organized, the question will disappear by itself.
• aesthetic characteristics of the design, since heating radiators can be placed inside unified system. It may be necessary to install perforated screens.

Decorative screens

There are a wide variety decorative items, which allow you to hide the pipes. They can be classified according to their design features:

• side boxes;
• flat screens;
• hanging screens;

Boxes make it possible to hide the location of the radiator. Often in design projects this method may be the only acceptable one.

Use for heating radiators is acceptable if the heating devices are installed in a niche.

Application hanging structure justified for hiding old ones cast iron pipes. If heating appliances are located under the window sill, then the screen is installed without a cover. If the batteries protrude some distance from the wall, they can also be covered from above.

The next criterion for their classification of decorative screens can be the material of manufacture:

1. plastic;
2. metal;
3. tree;
4. glass;

The most environmentally friendly of these materials will naturally be wood.

Many people do not trust plastic, because when heated it will emit bad smell, which can cause deterioration in health.

MDF gratings are inexpensive option, besides, they will look quite aesthetically pleasing.

Decorative screen for the battery and MDF pipes

Will fully cope with the assigned functions, although will not have elegant design. But given its low price, this option can be a good economical option. To give this casing a style, you can use perforation and stainless steel. An additional advantage of this solution may be ease of installation. These decorative screens are simply hung on the mounts.

Metal grille for radiator

It also does not require special skills and can be done independently.

A screen made of tempered and stained glass will look very elegant, at the same time it will not be inferior to other materials in terms of functionality, even outperforming steel and wood in some ways. To make glass have additional aesthetics, a pattern is often applied to it. In this way, even a nondescript protective structure can turn into an exclusive decorative element. However, this material has a significant disadvantage - its fragility. Therefore, such screens must be treated with care.

Naturally, in each case a person has to make a choice independently. And here aesthetics, functionality and financial capabilities will come into account.

In most cases, decorative screens are a successful way to cover old pipes that are spoiling the view and provide a unified design to the room.

In any room, after the renovation is completed, the pipes will look somewhat foreign. Therefore, many prefer to disguise them during repair work. The use of drywall and other modern finishing materials greatly simplifies this work.

This solution will allow you to improve appearance premises and successfully close the unpresentable heating system.

Modern construction market brings to our attention big variety materials. Almost all of them can help you disguise heating pipes and make the room more attractive.
Today, the following materials are most often used to close the heating system:

• drywall. Today they are most often used interior spaces, which allows you to create unique design rooms and complex designs. You can cover pipes with plasterboard very easily and quickly, and the appearance of the camouflage can be adjusted to any interior;
• laminate or MDF. Allows you to give the structure a similar look to wood and will be an excellent addition to any design;
• Chipboard. It is used somewhat less frequently than the two previous options, but at the same time the material is slightly cheaper;
• plywood. Its lightness and strength also make it possible to successfully close heating communications;
• wood. It will blend harmoniously with the furniture present in the room. Allows you to disguise pipes even in the most inaccessible places;
• plastic. Popularity of this material is almost on the same level with drywall. Makes it possible to give the camouflage structure any shape and appearance.

Note! When choosing a material, be guided by the interior of the room so that the camouflage is most successful.
All these materials will help you quickly and effectively sew up heating pipes and give your room completeness and beauty.

Camouflage options

Today, there are several ways to close the heating system in a room.
Methods for hiding heating pipes are as follows:

• special decoration of pipes. Allows you to disguise pipes as decorative elements with minimal effort. Here the hiding option depends on your imagination. The pipe can be painted in an original way, wrapped with twine, etc.;
• hiding in the floor or wall. Allows you to recess heating pipes into the floor or wall, as a result of which they become almost invisible;
• design of a special box. It makes it possible to practically and functionally hide the heating system and disguise it as an extension of shelves and/or niches.

The choice of method depends on the size of the pipes, your capabilities and desire to create more complex and labor-intensive structures.

Making a drawing

When choosing a masking method using a box or recess, it is necessary to draw up a work plan. Otherwise, you risk not getting the desired result.
We draw up the drawing as follows:

Box drawing

• We draw on paper the perimeter of the wall near which we will build a box or where we will sew up pipes;
• determine the dimensions (depth, height and width) of the niche;

Note! Metal carcass should not come close to pipes. Leave about 3 cm between the heating system and the profiles.

• indicate all places where the profiles are attached.

With such a drawing, it will be much easier for you to understand how much materials you will need, as well as assess the scale of the work.

Necessary tools

In order to close the heating pipes in a room using a plasterboard box, you will need the following tools:

• perforator;
• drill with a set of drills;
• level;
• pencil and tape measure;
• metal scissors and a drywall knife.

Having such a set of tools, you will be able to carry out all the necessary actions efficiently and be satisfied with the result.

Getting ready for work

Preparation in this matter is almost a fundamental factor for the successful outcome of the entire work. Let's consider what preparation should be made when forming the box. This stage includes the following operations:

Preparing for work

• inspection pipes for leakage. If this is not done, then in the foreseeable future it is quite possible to get a small “waterfall” in the room. If possible, it is generally advisable to replace old pipes with new ones;
• It is recommended to put special casings on pipes (especially metal-plastic ones). They will help avoid heat losses;
• delete all old finishing from the walls and floor in the place of planned work;
• prime the walls. It is best to use solutions that prevent the development of mold and mildew;
• We apply markings to the floor and wall according to the drawing.

After completing the preparation, all that remains is to pick up the tool and begin the actual installation.

Installation of the intended design

Here we will not consider decorating heating pipes, as this is a separate topic for discussion. Let's look at two ways to hide heating.
Any option for hiding in a wall or floor requires the following actions:

Hiding pipes in the wall

• cut grooves in the wall or floor. Their size must accommodate both pipes and mortar;
• we place the pipes there, which were previously wrapped in casings;
• make holes in certain areas walls/floors and attach the brackets to the dowels. This will allow the pipes to be securely fastened;
• We lay all communications with mortar.

Note! Avoid bricking up fittings.

The result is a completely hidden heating system.
When creating an external box or false wall, you should first make a frame from metal profiles:

• We apply a guide profile to the markings on the floor and drill a hole in it;
• Next, we attach it to dowels;

Note! First, we draw out the structure around the perimeter, and then insert transverse jumpers into it.

• install the profile to the wall;
• when the perimeter is mounted, we attach rack profiles to the guides, which will act as jumpers and give the structure additional rigidity;
• We fasten the profiles to each other using metal screws.

Box frame

After the entire frame has been eaten away, we begin to sheathe it. Here we will dwell in detail on drywall.
Proper covering of the frame with plasterboard sheets involves the following procedures:

• We apply markings to the sheets. This way you can cut pieces of the size you need;
• Using a drywall knife, we cut the sheets and obtain the required size pieces;
• We fasten them to the frame with self-tapping screws. Remember, the edges of the sheet should fall in the middle of the profile.

After completing the installation of the structure, you can begin the final finishing.

Final stage

At this stage, in order to give the box an aesthetic and beautiful view, you need to do the following:

• we cover all joints of plasterboard sheets with sickle;
• we cover with rough putty all the joints and areas of the drywall into which the self-tapping screws were screwed;
• after the putty has dried, we smooth out all the irregularities with sandpaper;
• Apply the final layer of putty.

After this, the box can be painted, covered with wallpaper or decorated with decorative stucco. Remember that the external design of the box must match the overall interior of the room.
As you can see, you can close the pipes different ways. The main thing is that everything looks extremely appropriate and harmonious.

During the construction of a house and when renovating an apartment, the question arises of how to hide heating pipes so that they do not burden the interior with their appearance. This can be done in several ways: using hidden pipes (under the floor and inside the wall), hiding it with a plasterboard box or false wall. The heating radiator can be covered with a decorative shield. There are many ways to hide heating pipes in the kitchen, toilet or living room. Remember that the materials used should not highlight harmful substances, and corrosion resistance and light weight are also important.

How to hide heating pipes in a private house

In the wall or in the floor

Even at the construction stage, it is worth thinking about how to hide heating pipes.

• First, they draw a diagram of the location of the pipes, mark the contours of the recesses on the wall, and then use a hammer drill to punch them according to the markings.
• Then the required depth is created with a grinder.
• Now pipes are laid in the resulting grooves.
• Be sure to check the system at a pressure exceeding operating pressure. There should be no leaks at the joints.
• If the pipes are installed correctly, there are no leaks at the fastening points, they create thermal insulation. Suitable for winding mineral wool or polystyrene foam. Installation of the insulating layer is not difficult and necessary; without it, some of the heat will be lost. The seams are covered with construction tape.
• The pipes are walled up with a mixture of sand and glue-cement, taken in a 1:1 ratio.

Installation of pipes embedded in the wall requires high professionalism from repairmen

To run a coolant pipe under the floor or in the wall, you need a heating system with forced circulation. The floor heating pipe is connected parallel to the main heating system. The zigzag arrangement of pipes over the entire floor area and the presence of a control valve ensure optimal temperature.

The screed on the floor must be thick, otherwise the pipes may become deformed during operation. Gravity pipes are placed with a slope (below heating devices).

A significant disadvantage of this method: in the event of a leak, you will need to break up the floor, and after eliminating the problem with the pipe, resolve the issue of repairing the entire damaged surface.

You can hide the pipe quite simply: just wrap it with decorative cord

Using a plasterboard box

A frame is installed along the entire pipeline line, which is subsequently covered with plasterboard. During the work you will need: metal profiles or wooden slats, plasterboard, self-tapping screws, dowels, screwdriver, knife, scissors, cutter (for convenient fastening of metal profiles), drill.

• After all necessary measurements cut profiles or bars.
• The frame is installed and secured with dowels. A separate frame is created for the window near the tap or valve.
• If the box has a height from floor to ceiling, its frame must have increased rigidity. To do this, the design needs to provide jumper ribs.
• The bars are connected to each other with self-tapping screws, metal profiles are connected with a cutter (or self-tapping screws).

Ribs cast iron batteries will not spoil the appearance of the room, a wooden screen will make the radiator attractive

Decorative screen for radiators

Metal, wood, MDF are materials that are used to make decorative screens.

1. Metal screen 1 mm thick – a budget option, but some of the heat will be lost in this case. If desired, the structure can be painted in any color that will match the interior of the room. The screen can be with or without side edges. It is best if its surface is carved or mesh; heat transfer will be more efficient.
2. Wooden screen made from high-quality wood, which lasts a long time and is a good heat conductor. Its shape can be very diverse, the tree provides for this ample opportunities. You can order not just a shield covering sections of the radiator, but a whole cabinet with doors. Perforated front panels ensure free flow of warm air.

The main condition is to choose the “right” fabric: durable but breathable

Fabric screen - fashionable design solution. Plain or painted, it will look great in almost any room. Durable, breathable fabric hangs on hooks wooden frame, mounted on the radiator. You can also secure a piece of fabric with nails or a stapler. In a children's room, you can put a cover on the battery in the shape of a funny lamb. The most important thing: the fabric must allow air to pass through, otherwise it will not be the room that is heated, but the cover.

DIY making

You will need: a sheet of chipboard, adhesive-based furniture edge, metal corners, furniture stapler, knife, iron, sandpaper.

Decorative radiator screen for a high-tech room

Sequence of work

1. Perform screen drawing with all required sizes. Mark its location on the wall.
2. Create frame walls from chipboard, which then need to be connected with corners and screws.
3. Create a lattice from furniture edge. To ensure that the holes in it are the same, cut out a blank template from cardboard. Fasten its components with a stapler.
4. Lightly heat the grille with a hot iron from the front side (for better adhesion of the adhesive layer). Finish the end parts with furniture edge too.

Two in one: a box for a radiator and a cabinet for all sorts of things

• When there are a lot of pipes on the wall, optimal solution There will be a false wall made. The technology for its construction is similar to creating a box.
• Pipes can also be hidden behind roller shutters. In this way, access to communications is maintained, and the appearance of the masked area is neat.
• In the kitchen, heating pipes can be placed in floor (wall) cabinets kitchen set.
• The box must have windows in order to have access to the valve if necessary.
• When installing, leave a distance of 2-3 cm between the box and the pipes.

Where to hide or how to cover the heating pipe in a room is a question that requires a thoughtful approach. The choice will depend on the financial capabilities of the apartment owners and on the layout of communications. That is, for each specific case there will be its own optimal disguise option.

Every householder, when making renovations in his apartment or in a private house, often thinks about how to hide the heating pipes in the room, because for aesthetic purposes, this would be a justified decision.

We will try to answer this question in detail, offering you several effective and effective ways, namely, three options for how to hide heating pipes are to disguise them in the wall or under the floor, using a box or false wall made of plasterboard and the method of how to decorate the heating pipes in the room.

But we must take into account that each option has its own advantages and disadvantages, where the use of any method depends not only on the material, but also on design features the premises themselves. Attached to the article are photo materials that will help you take correct solution on masking pipes.

Let's look at all the nuances and advantages of each option in more detail.

Option for hiding heating pipes in the wall

Pipes located along the wall can damage not only appearance walls, but also the interior design of the entire room. But first of all, we would like to inform you that it is strictly prohibited to completely close the heating pipes in the apartment by hiding them in the wall or under the floor.

• Firstly, there is a law prohibiting “reconstruction of residential premises that involves the installation, replacement or transfer of utility networks...", and getting permission there is not so easy.
• Secondly, this case can be risky in apartment buildings residential buildings, since if a thoroughly walled riser breaks, it is possible, because not all plumbers are experienced, and some may cheat, as a result of which all the troubles will eventually fall on you.
• And thirdly, if the system central heating, is fairly worn out and leaves much to be desired, then even more so, the method of hiding heating pipes in the wall of a room can lead to a decrease in heat transfer in the apartment and formation of heat in the apartment.

The option of how to disguise heating pipes in the wall or under the floor is perfect in a private house, since in such houses an individual boiler is usually installed, where temperature regime, is regulated by the owners and in case of an emergency, you can easily stop the boiler system and drain the water.

How to close heating pipes in an apartment photo on the wall

First of all, if the heating system in a private house has already been installed, you should carefully inspect the pipes and the system as a whole. It is strictly not recommended to hide metal pipes, especially old ones, it will be better if you replace them with plastic ones. For those who are just building a house and installing a wiring system in a room from scratch, it is much easier for them.

Before starting work, you should draw up a diagram of the future location of the pipe system. Next, in the wall or on the floor, recesses are made with strobes of the appropriate size, using a grinder with a diamond wheel to cut the markings and to deepen the recess itself; if you do not have the proper power tools at hand, you can use old-fashioned method, that is, a chisel and a hammer.

After the recess in the wall or floor is prepared, all that remains is to drown the pipes. This process is quite simple, but remember, do it wisely, that is, pay special attention to the connection points of fittings, elbows and tees. After laying and installing the pipes, you need to check the reliability of their fastening and the absence of leaks, in order to avoid further troubles.

To check the heating system of pipes in a room, follow these instructions, connect the heating system to the pump, then fill it with water and create a pressure that exceeds the working pressure, and then visually inspect all pipe connections for leaks.

In order to reduce heat loss in the system, it is recommended to insulate the pipes with polystyrene foam insulation. To do this, you need to make a side slit in the covers and put it on the pipes; the seams can be taped with special tape. After all the work done, the wall should be given a uniform appearance by covering the openings with mortar and removing all accumulated construction debris.

At the end of the process of completing all the work, a pipe route diagram is drawn up, so that during further repair and construction work, the integrity of the hidden structure will not be accidentally damaged.

How to hide heating pipes under drywall

Hiding heating pipes under drywall is considered simple and the best option, both for an apartment and a private house. There are two ways to cover heating pipes under plasterboard, this is to make a box along the wall or create a false wall from plasterboard. Which method is most suitable is up to you to choose based on the situation.

How to close pipes under a plasterboard structure photo

Before erecting plasterboard structures, you should carefully inspect the surface of the heating pipes for defects; if found, they must be eliminated. The frame for the box can be made either from slats and blocks of wood, or from metal profiles, using self-tapping screws as fasteners, and tanning screws to strengthen the structure to the wall.

The finished frame is trimmed to size plasterboard sheet, the fastening step between the screws should be within 25-30 cm. After all the steps taken, the surface of the drywall can be covered with wallpaper, whitewashed or painted.

In addition, in those places where couplings, tees, and turns are installed, it is recommended to install technological door openings in the event of an accident for emergency opening of the structure.

Mostly, the method of covering heating pipes under drywall is very simple, affordable and quickly erected. A similar option for decorating pipes can be used. In addition, the cost of such work in comparison with laying heating pipes into the wall is much lower.

The second method of erecting a structure from plasterboard, a false wall, is practically no different from previous method, the only difference is in the amount of work and the amount of materials used. In addition, the design of a false wall can create a little space in your apartment.

As an option to hide heating pipes, you can use a special decorative lattice-type screen with large slits or cells, which is typical for this design to already have a ready-made attractive appearance and do not create an obstacle to air exchange.

I think after studying the material, as well as viewing the photos, you will not have any questions about how to close heating pipes. If you have any questions or additions, leave your feedback, we are always happy to respond.

Very often when construction work hide heating pipes in the wall, advantages and disadvantages This method of hiding pipes needs to be studied thoroughly to determine whether this method is suitable for you or not. Otherwise, not only the functioning of the heating, but also the design of the room may suffer.

It is better to carry out hidden pipe laying at the construction stage. In an already functioning house, this issue is much more difficult to resolve. If previously communications were left attached to the walls, then a significant advantage of high-quality repairs modern level is that these options are not acceptable.

Is it possible to hide heating in the walls?

Many people are interested in whether it is possible to hide heating pipes in the wall. There are quite a lot of supporters and people with opposing opinions of the described method. Some argue that this cannot be done, others say that it is possible to hide the heating in the wall.

So, is it still possible or not? Which opinion is correct, and what are the pros and cons of such decisions? And, in order not to keep the intrigue for long, you need to answer that you can use this method. And they use it very often.

This effective option, with which you can hide unsightly pipes in the house. There is no technical need for such actions, and in terms of operation it is quite possible to do without it.

Consensus on this issue, as well as on the only correct version of the gasket, has not yet been found. Therefore, everyone will make their own decisions, after carefully weighing all the pros and cons.

Hidden broach

Laying heating pipes in the wall is a fairly popular practice. This is justified by the fact that heating communications greatly spoil the interior space. This is their big disadvantage. They stretch along the walls, catch the eye, and are attractive in overall design do not add. For these reasons, many people want to hide them.

Heating installation can be carried out different ways, but the most common of them is installation in the wall. At first glance, this is very good decision, the pipe is completely hidden, general form The rooms have improved a lot, but is everything really that simple, and what are the advantages of this solution?

Often, when laying a heating network in the walls, the joints lose their sealing. As a result, leaks form. It is impossible to see such places on a hidden pipeline, and defects can only be identified using a water pressure sensor.

All modern heating devices are equipped with such a device. When determining a leak, you need to determine the location of the accident and make repairs.

If, after weighing all the pros and cons, and it is decided to lay a heating line in the wall, then the surface covering must be designed in such a way that access to possible emergency zones is free.

For these reasons, the cladding is made from plastic panels, lining, drywall, etc. The disadvantages of various decorative plastering is that in the event of an accident the wall will have to be dismantled, and this is not only physical, but also financial costs.

Advice! When laying a polypropylene system hidden method, it is necessary to first carry out strength testing. In this case, the test load must exceed the normal operating mode by no less than 1.5 times. For metal systems It is not recommended to use this method of laying, due to their significant disadvantage - poor resistance to corrosive formations.

One more nuance should also be taken into account. Minus plastic system– . During installation, this minus must be taken into account.

How to hide a heating system in an apartment - let's look at the methods

IN panel walls Heating pipes can be hidden in several ways. And for this room there are not so many of them. The first option in panel houses is the use of grooves, and the second way is the construction of false walls. Each of the options has pros and cons, and you need to make a decision for yourself after studying these methods in detail.

A heating pipe can be hidden in the wall of a panel house when a new circuit is being assembled, or repair work is being carried out in an already functioning structure. As a rule, the wall of a panel house and the heating main are placed in different planes.

And when it is necessary to bring them into one plane, recesses are cut in the panel walls and the heating line is placed there. When doing this, you need to pay attention to the following points:

1. Before starting work in panel house block the riser. There is no need to rush when performing these actions. And you should definitely make sure that the work is planned on the right riser.
2. If the depth of the canal exceeds half the septal thickness, then the best option there will be a refusal of planned actions. So, for example, a bathroom in a panel house is a separate concrete block system. And the thickness of such panel walls will not be enough for this task.
3. The dimensions of the grooves in panel walls should not run end to end, and they should not infringe on the contour. The recesses must be made taking into account the system fasteners, its volume and the insulating layer.
4. Before covering the system in the wall of a panel house, otherwise condensation will form on the surface of the pipe.
5. Before fastening the structure to the wall of a panel house, you need to determine its main locations. These include joints and zones of change in direction of the coolant.

To facilitate the work of chiselling a wall in a panel house, it is recommended to use a grinder. First, markings should be made, and then along the corresponding lines, indentations are made to a certain level of depth.

ADVICE! When working with an angle grinder, not only a lot of noise arises, but also dust. Modern instruments have a big plus - the function of connecting to construction vacuum cleaner, and this prevents the appearance of dust.

By existing rules the communication network in the wall of a panel house should be located in an area of ​​unobstructed access. Only those areas where the possibility of an accident is zero are left directly closed.

Heating pipes under a false wall

Watch the video

If a decision is made to hide the heating pipes in a false wall, then in this case special difficulties does not arise. First, a base is built from guides, and finally it is decorated with any of the selected materials: clapboard, plasterboard, blockhouse.

There is an opinion that if you hide the heating in a false wall, the usable space of the home is significantly reduced. Fortunately, this minus is only a myth. For example, if you need to hide a heating pipeline under a window, in reality this space is practically not used.

The only thing that is lost in this situation is less than fifteen centimeters under the window sill, but it itself becomes wider by the same distance. This addition is much more useful than the unused area under the window.

If you need to hide unaesthetic designs of a heating system, then experts recommend a false wall. They just call her ideal solution. Very an important advantage This building is that it can be constructed without the participation of professional craftsmen. And this is a big advantage of this building.

In many situations, when it is necessary to hide the intersection of a horizontal and vertical line, or to mount a large system unit, the box may not always help out. But a false wall can handle such situations perfectly.

Another big advantage of this method is the excellent combination of construction with the overall design. When deciding to hide heating pipes under a false wall, you can also reconsider the placement of other systems; this method can also be effective for decorating them.

Box

Performing modern high-quality repairs, we hide the heating pipes in the wall. This installation option requires careful calculation and preparation detailed diagram. If the heating network is hidden at the stage of building a house, then the task is not difficult to complete.

But, with an already existing pipeline stretched along the walls, they do this. In addition to false walls, it can be sewn up with a box. At the same time, from wooden planks, or a frame is assembled from the profile, which is subsequently sheathed with various materials suitable for the design. Neither the construction nor the covering of the frame present any particular difficulties.

And not into the wall, then the advantages of this option speak for themselves. The structure is not difficult to build with little financial investment. Another clear advantage of such a building is the ability to quickly get to units for repair work.

If they hide the highway under a box without openings, then this also does not amount to big problems, so, this building can be easily dismantled, and then returned to its original place. And one more important nuance cannot be ignored. When the heating line is hidden under a box, such a building acts as a decorative detail that can be decorated to your liking.

Isolate or do without it

Transferring heating pipes into the wall involves the use of insulation. Many people ask a completely justified question: “Why is this insulation needed when transferring pipes under plaster?” The answer is simple, otherwise the heat will go into the walls to warm up.

Mostly heat is lost in the walls that are in contact with the street. In interior walls The problem of heat loss is not big, since heat will still transfer into the room, but its amount will be slightly less.

When transferring the heating pipeline into the wall, not only thermal insulation is carried out. This creates an obstacle to the formation of condensation. After all, any moisture is favorable soil for the development of fungus.

It is also important to note that insulation when moving heating pipes performs another important function. It protects the highway from mechanical influence.

When choosing an insulation option when moving a pipeline, it is important to take into account that each of the proposed materials has its own pros and cons. For example, polyurethane foam it is necessary to take the one with the smallest thermal increase; in the case of foamed polyurethane, you need to take a material that exactly matches the size of the system, etc.

How to secure a pipeline

Laying heating pipes into the wall is done using various devices. Let's consider several options:

• sliding;
• hard.

An immovable support for the pipeline holds the structure tightly. With this installation, the contour cannot move. And when installed with sliding fasteners, it can move a little. When pulling the line, it is recommended to alternate these two types of fasteners.

Types of fasteners that are used when laying networks under plaster:

• . This is enough simple devices, in which fixation is carried out by tightening the bolt.
• Clip. These devices also have a simple design. The advantage of this device is that fixation is performed with one click.
• Plastic tightening clamps. Unlike metal analogues, such pipeline laying devices are equipped with only one fastening point.
• Dowel - hook. These options are recommended for laying the system according to flat surface. Such a screw is tightened or carefully hammered into the prepared place.
• Crab - systems. These mechanisms are used when fixing the pipeline to the walls, and for fastening lines to each other.

Pros and cons of this type of gasket

Professionals are inclined to believe that installing heating pipes into a wall is a difficult and expensive procedure.

It is difficult to name the objective advantages of such actions, not counting the aesthetic design. But the disadvantages in this situation are obvious.

1. The most important thing is the complexity of installation. Before starting work, it is important to consider that joining the parts is difficult. It is especially difficult to perform high-quality welding in grooves.
2. High probability of leakage. With this installation, in case of an accident you will have to break the wall.
3. The whole spectrum installation work in this case is associated with large physical and financial costs. And this is a very significant disadvantage of this installation option.

To bury heating pipes in the wall, you should adhere to the requirements that apply to plasterboard structures. And it’s best to listen to the advice of professionals, but they say that walling up pipes made of “black” steel into the walls is a bad decision.

Likewise, it is not allowed to install polypropylene and metal-plastic heating pipes with compression fittings into the wall. The reason for this ban is such a disadvantage of these structures as their tendency to leak.

You can wall it up under plaster following systems:

• metal-plastic on press couplings;
• “stainless steel” and copper;
• their cross-linked polyethylene system.

Before putting used brass fittings into a wall, you need to make sure that as few joints as possible are walled up. You can make grooves not only with a hammer drill; an angle grinder is also well suited for this work.

When the recess is prepared, you need to lay the pipeline in it and cover it with insulation. It is most convenient to remove the system into the wall during the construction phase. There is a significant drawback to working with a finished surface - it will have to be destroyed.

There are many options for work. Therefore, after weighing all the pros and cons, everyone, based on their own situation, will decide how to remove the heating system into the wall.

Modern heating pipes in the wall, the pros and cons of which have been discussed, make it possible to implement hidden installation options at a high professional level. And there are enough ways to do this. All that remains is to choose suitable option and give him life.
