When outside the window of cold, there is a need to heat not only residential premises, but also garages, as well as workshops.
Need to use
If you are a car enthusiast, then you are familiar with the fact that the battery does not like cold weather. And it will be difficult to start the car when the temperature outside the garage drops below the maximum possible mark. If you like to do something in the garage, then you probably came across the need to use a stove.
As practice shows, a diesel fuel stove is the most optimal and economical device that you can make yourself.
Use of gas cylinders
Of course, in stores you can buy a unit designed for heating small rooms. However, such devices are designed for certain operating conditions. If the device of the described type is manufactured independently, then you can count on your needs by making the furnace such that it will ideally meet the expected operating conditions. It will be not only economical, but also effective.
Quite often, gas cylinders that were used for oxygen or carbon are used to make such devices. The fuel will flow by gravity, and the forced supply of oxygen must be discarded, since it is not required for the design. In order not to create a fire hazardous situation, heating of the cylinder should be excluded by setting the height of the circuit according to the height of the combustion source.
Preparatory work
If you are going to make a stove in diesel fuel, then you have to prepare pipes for the chimney, the length of which should be 4 meters or more. In this case, the wall thickness should not be more than 2 millimeters. The inner diameter of the pipes should be 10 centimeters. A silent cylinder, the volume of which is 50 liters, will act as the main element. Its walls should not be more than 1.5 centimeters. The fuel tank must have a volume ranging from 8 to 15 liters, and the pipes for the burner must be made of copper.
You will need a file and a grinder, steel 20-cm corners, a welding machine, electrodes, tape measure, level, drill and drill.
Balloon preparation
If you will be working on a diesel fuel stove, it is important to pay attention to the thickness of the walls of the product. The principle of operation is that combustible fuel vapors must form. If the walls are thicker than the above parameter, the boiling point will not be reached. It is necessary to drain the condensate from the cylinder on the street, and then rinse the tank twice to rid it of odorant. After the tank is filled to the top with water, it is buried in the ground for stability. A grinder comes into play, with the help of which it will be necessary to rid the tank of the upper part with the valve.
When the stove is made in diesel fuel, the first cut will cause a decrease in water. You need to wait until it drains, only after that you can continue to separate the upper part from the bottom. Using a welding machine, legs that are made of metal corners should be welded to the bottom of the tank. The cylinder is installed, and then you can proceed to the assembly of the structure. The chimney must be vertical, devoid of slopes and angles. The length of this element should not be less than 4 meters. Mining can also be filled into the structure, however, it must first be cleaned. If you use unprepared oil, it may contain alcohol and water. When heated, such a mixture can cause a fire or explosion, which is especially critical in a garage.
Production of a drip-based furnace
Miracle stove in diesel fuel may have a drip design. This option is considered quite simple and quick to manufacture. To carry out the process, a medical heating pad should be prepared, the volume of which is approximately 2 liters. To the rubber hose, which is provided in the heating pad, it is necessary to attach a copper pipe, which is bent at an angle of 90 degrees. The rubber hose bends in half, a tin clamp with a screw is installed in place of the bend. This design will allow you to effectively control the flow of fuel from the burner, which must drip.
The device is suspended on the wall, for this you can use the hole intended by the factory. When such a wonderful stove is made on diesel fuel, the next step is to prepare a rag that will act as a wick. The rags are impregnated with diesel fuel, and red brick is laid under the rags in the oven. The furnace itself will be a metal container, for this it is recommended to use 1/2 of the barrel. The door should be small, its size should be sufficient to load fuel. Often, homemade craftsmen make a stove in a diesel engine with their own hands. When the door is made, cracks are formed that will play the role of a blower. The pipe should be made of tin and resemble a samovar. Thus, it should consist of several tribes.
The hole for the pipe should be located as far as possible from the door. In the central part of the furnace, you need to make a hole that will correspond to the diameter of the tube. If you place this element on the side, and not on top, then you will have the opportunity to get a surface for heating and cooking. Such a stove in diesel fuel, the price of which is 7000 rubles in stores, can be done by you yourself. You do not need to use firewood as fuel, and you can adjust the intensity of combustion as you wish. Among the shortcomings can be identified fire hazard and unpleasant odors.
Making a furnace from metal sheets
The most common are devices that are made of steel sheets. This design is compact, and you can use the following sizes: 70x50x35 centimeters. This is true, except for the chimney. Such a device will weigh only 27 kilograms, with it you can cook food or connect water heating to it.
Considering the positive features, we can also highlight the fact that the device is completely not afraid of frost.
Preparation of materials and tools
You can make a furnace for a garage in diesel fuel if you prepare 4 steel 20-cm corners, steel sheets 6 and 4 millimeters thick, and also a chimney. You will need a hammer, tape measure, level, file, grinder, welding machine, bending machine and electrodes.
Methodology
ZAZ stove in diesel fuel you can be purchased at the store, however, you are able to make it yourself. For the tank, the material should be cut with a grinder, and then connect the workpieces to each other by welding. Further, holes are made in the body for installing a chimney, as well as for mounting a door. At the final stage, the legs are strengthened for structural stability.
The ZAZ stove in diesel fuel is sold in the departments of the corresponding goods, but it costs much more than the one that you can do yourself. That is why garage owners often resort to such a decision.
