Homemade heaters for home, garden and garage

For a holiday at the cottage in the winter you need a reliable heat source( heater).It can be purchased in specialized stores. But there are gardeners who can easily design homemade heaters for the home, cottage and garage.

Not all gardeners and landlords come to this decision, but only those who have special skills and abilities. Among them are true self-taught engineers. They are able to calculate everything to the smallest detail, to carefully process every detail, having mounted the original safe heater.

The material costs for a home-made device for heating a room are minimal, since it can be found on the farm. Even if you buy material for money, it will cost much less than the device from the store, and the effect of the work is the same. Why then spend money on the purchase of finished equipment when it can be mounted independently? How to make a home heater for yourself?

Homemade gas heater for garage, home, garden

Creating a heater with your own hands, you need to follow several recommendations:

• The device should have a simple design without complicated elements and parts.
• Special attention should be paid to safety, because the devices that overlap and supply gas are best purchased from factory or removed from old cylinders.
• When creating a gas heater should also take into account its efficiency.
• The heater should not be cumbersome, and the ways of its activation are complex.
• The cost of materials for the heater should be no more than a third of the real price of the factory heater from the store counter, otherwise there is no point in doing it, it is easier to buy ready-made.

As practice shows, the most effective way to heat at home is infrared radiation.

To make such a gas home-made heater for a garage, home, cottage with your own hands, you need a minimum of parts and material costs( sheet metal, metal scissors, rake, rivets, metal mesh, reptile, ordinary household sieve, torsovy barrel with gas capacity 0,5 liters and a special burner with a valve).

The first thing to do is to fix the heater to the burner. It is necessary to take an economic sieve, lean against the galvanized sheet and circle around the marker. Then, perpendicular and in parallel, it is necessary to draw rectangular ears to the circle( one of them should be twice as long).Scissors for metal need to cut the picture. It should be as even as possible.

The second stage of installation of the heater contains the fastening of parts together. To do this, take the torch and fasten it with bolts to the tin circle. Then, with the aid of ears, which are wrapped in the opposite direction, a strainer is attached. It helps dissipate heat around. It turned out part of the design of the heater.

The third stage of mounting a homemade heater will be mounting a metal grid. To do this, you need to cut an identical circle out of the tin. It is also cut with scissors for metal. The ears are bent, and holes are drilled in the plane of the circle( about 10).Then the grid is taken and attached to the ears of both circles. First you need to mount the lower part, then the upper. Fastening is carried out with the help of a klepochnik and rivets. As a result of these operations should get a mesh cylinder.

The final stage is the launch of an infrared homemade gas heater. Although it is not great, the heat emanates from it sufficiently to warm a garage, a room in a house, or a small country house.

DIY oil heater DIY

Due to its impeccable functionality, performance and efficiency, oil heaters have become very popular among summer residents. They are safe and compact, have a high level of efficiency.

A self-made oil heater device is very simple: a hermetic casing with oil( any gas can or any other sealed container may fit) around which electric tubular heaters are wrapped.

To make an oil heater, the following materials and tools are needed:

• Hermetic capacity( radiator from the car, metal or aluminum battery).
• Transformer or technical oil.
• 4 tena.
• Electric motor or pump of small power( up to 2-2.5 kW).
• A set of drills, drill, welding machine, electrodes, switches.

The process of installing an oil heater at home follows the following scenario:

• Mounting the frame. It is necessary to make a frame such that it is transportable and convenient in operation. It is also worth considering the way it is stored in the warm part of the year. Corners are welded together using a welding machine.
• Holes for installation of heating elements. Holes can be made grinder or welding, and best of all autogenous( if you can get it).
• Mounting pump or motor. You can install the motor or pump directly on the body of the heater or on the frame. It must be ensured that the pump does not touch the tenam.
• Tenen fixing. Tena are established on in advance prepared place by means of bolted connections.
• Tightness. To achieve tightness, you need to brew all the holes. For more convenient use of the heater and emergency drainage of fluid, you can mount a cover that would be screwed to the body.
• Connection of heating elements. They must be connected in parallel( this is how the heater will work efficiently).You can select the desired temperature regulators.
• Oil heater almost ready. It remains to collect everything on the frame and ground the entire device.

DIY oil cooler will be an excellent and effective heater for the home and garden. Its only drawback is its dependence on electricity and its large consumption.

Do-it-yourself Electric Heater

If you do an electric heater with your own hands, the basis of his work must be infrared rays, which heat not the air, but the objects in the room. Due to this principle, even a homemade electric heater will be effective. In addition, the consumption of electricity is minimal.

To make an electric heater, you can use two plastic plates and graphite chips. The owner will get an aesthetic, flat device that harmoniously fits into any interior.

A graphite heater is made in the presence of graphite chips( old, used tram brushes can be used), two sheets of plastic( 1 m2 each), epoxy glue, a piece of wire with a plug at the end.

1. First stage. It is necessary to grind graphite, if there is no ready graphite powder. The amount of powder affects the efficiency of the heater, so it should be enough.
2. The second stage. Graphite powder is mixed with epoxy glue. As a result of this action is obtained excellent graphite conductor, which has great resistance.
3. The third stage. The resulting composition of graphite powder and epoxy glue zigzag wide lines applied to one of the plastic plates.
4. The fourth stage. Using the same epoxy glue, attach the second plate on top. You can get the resulting structure, after drying, placed in a wooden frame. This will give the heater greater strength.
5. Fifth stage. Copper terminals are attached on both sides of the heater. Connect the wires to them with a plug.
6. The final stage. The device is ready for use. You need to plug it in and check the performance.

Homemade electric heater is the most effective and convenient means of heating a room. Many gardeners are often interested in the question of how to make a garage heater with your own hands? For a garage, you can make a heater on the same principle, only plastic plates need to be taken smaller, about two times. This will be enough to warm a small garage.
