Installing a geyser in an apartment with your own hands: requirements and technical standards for installation

Algorithm of actions when replacing a gas column

There are no devices and devices that would last forever. Therefore, sooner or later they need to be replaced. And the gas stove is no exception. You cannot change it yourself. This is punishable by law and large monetary fines. According to building regulations, there are norms that must be observed when dismantling an old column and replacing it with a new one.

Required Documentation

The package of documents also depends on which column the old one will be replaced with. If the replacement is made for a column of the same brand, then the following certificates will be required:

• An application for the replacement of old equipment with a new one while maintaining the same location.
• Permission to carry out work on the highway.
• A copy of the house project with water and gas supply systems.
• Passport for a new column indicating in it all its characteristics.
• Document on the condition of the chimney.

If the column is being replaced with the same brand, but with a different capacity, it is necessary to order a recalculation of the project. They also do when replacing the column with another brand.

Factors affecting the cost of work

Replacing a gas column will cost you from 3000 rubles. up to 5000 rub. if we consider the dismantling of old equipment, it is necessary to add 300-800 rubles. the cost may be higher in the following cases:

• The chimney or gas valve needs to be replaced.
• Carry out any plumbing work.
• Buy the missing elements for mounting the column.

Replacing a gas column costs from 3000 rubles. up to 5000 rub

Even the cost may additionally include calling a team to replace the column and the connection of the column itself.

Dismantling the old column

Before installing new equipment, it is necessary to get rid of the old one.

• Shut off the gas supply to the column. This can be done with a wrench.
• Shut off the water supply. They do this in order to avoid excess water that can pour out of the pipe.
• The next step is to disconnect the chimney. To do this, just loosen the clamps on the pipe.
• And the final step is to dismantle the column itself. In some cases, it is necessary to remove the front cover of the speaker in order to unscrew the screws and remove the box.

The next steps are to install a new column.

Installing a new column

To install a new column and comply with all the rules, you must follow all building codes. Only in this case it will serve a good and long service.

You can install the column yourself. But only a specialist can connect it to gas. Otherwise, you may face a fine.

• First of all, before installation, it is necessary to process the wall, close up the holes formed from the previous column. It is possible to let the wall dry during the day.
• The next step is to make new mounts so that they can hold the column.
• Putting the gas column on the wall, attaching the chimney. You can call a specialist to connect the gas itself.
• The specialist, having done his job, checks the reliability of the connection and the absence of water and gas leaks.
• Next, an act of registration of the introduction of new equipment into use is drawn up. You can use the gas column with peace of mind.

Installing a new geyser

The main characteristics of gas water heaters

Geysers are distinguished by rapid heating of water, small dimensions and ergonomics. In addition, they are equipped with various sensors and automatic systems that exclude fuel leakage.

Geysers are supplied with various sensors.

The power of water heaters varies from 15 to 30 kW, taking into account the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room.

What characteristics should the equipment have?

The equipment used must ensure the safety and durability of operation during the service life specified by the manufacturer.

It is allowed to install only those units that exactly comply with regional regulations and are certified by the Gosgortekhnadzor of Russia.

Is it allowed to make hidden installation of gas equipment

Each device is equipped with an autonomous gas pipeline with a shut-off valve, which is made of a metal pipe. Given this feature, it is impossible to hide the structure through flush mounting.

2 What are the requirements for installing gas water heaters in a private house

A prerequisite for any potential user of a water heater is to know what are the requirements for a gas colony in a private house.

First of all, you need to know the snip gas water heaters for a private house, which sets the requirements for the room in which the water heater is planned to be installed: the minimum area is 15 square meters, the ceiling height is at least 2 meters, the presence of a window is at least 0.5 m 2, the presence of ventilation (or a hood for a gas water heater is installed in a private house), the water pressure is from 0.1 atm., the wall under the gas water heater must be made of brick or concrete, otherwise insulation with a special basalt cardboard is necessary.

In addition, the standards for installing a geyser in a private house are required to comply with the following parameters:

1. There should be a margin of 60 cm in front of the front panel of the gas column;
2. The distance from the water heater to the gas stove is at least 20 cm;
3. The stopcock is mounted before the column is installed.

The rules for installing a geyser in a private house also regulate the procedure for legalizing the installation of a geyser.To obtain permission to install a water heater, you must obtain a project for your house and check the condition of the chimney (after which you receive an act), then the owner of a private house draws up an application for the conversion of his home.

You will also need those column passport, or its model (if the latter has not yet been purchased). After that, you can contact GORGAZ to carry out the tie-in.

You should know the subtleties at each stage of installing a geyser in a private house. This will be needed both for partial installation with your own hands, and for calculating all the nuances of the work. Experienced professionals share the following tips:

• If you decide to disguise the geyser in a snag cabinet, this is possible. But you should be aware that such a cabinet should not have a bottom, and the side walls should have high-quality insulation;
• If you hesitate in choosing between installing a chimney pipe, opt for corrugations made of laminated aluminum. Such a pipe is perfect for a private house, as it is easy to install, quite reliable and inexpensive, and inside it has steel pipes that prevent sagging;
• If you plan to mount a geyser instead of an old one that has become unusable, then it is best not to change the installation site. So you save time and some money;
• Remember that in case of unauthorized insertion into the gas pipeline and connection of the gas column, you will face administrative responsibility, in the form of a fine.

Paying attention to customer reviews, there is often a problem when the geyser freezes in a private house

Masters advise first of all to pay attention to the draft in the chimney

Most often, a malfunction in the form of reverse thrust is the cause of the failure of the water heater. The collection of gas column condensate in a private house may appear if an ash pan is not installed in the system, and condensate is already drained from it. Otherwise, this problem will occur every winter season.

The presence of such an installation in a residential area is a reliable, popular, economical option for obtaining hot water of the required volume with a centralized gas supply or from a cylinder.

In addition to the specific information on the site, you can also study specific problems for other people on this topic who have already bought a gas water heater or instantaneous water heater and thus avoid them. You will find a regularly updated list of such problems and their solutions.

This is the least expensive and time consuming option. When replacing, there is no need to obtain a project. Before starting work on replacing an old water heater, it is necessary to obtain certified copies of the schemes, a plan for installing gas, water, and smoke systems from the Housing Office. The gas supply plan must indicate the location, technical parameters of the device.

After receiving the documents, you must write an application to Gorgaz with a request for permission to replace the old equipment with a new one, while maintaining its previous location, an application for permission to work on gas and water communications in your home.

What do the rules and regulations say?

We emphasize that any work in relation to the organization of gas supply, including the supply of a gas pipeline, the installation of tees, the installation of valves, should be carried out only by specially trained specialists. If you decide to do such work yourself, then at least you will “earn” a hefty fine and damaged nerves. But this does not mean that it is impossible to install a geyser with your own hands.

But this does not mean that it is impossible to install a geyser with your own hands.

If there is no self-confidence, it is better to invite specialists

From a technical point of view, the gas column installation standards state that two types of work can be performed:

1. Installation from scratch.
2. Replacing old water heaters with new ones.

If the column is mounted for the first time, then first it is necessary to develop an appropriate project, which will regulate the work of supplying a gas pipe to the place where the column will be fixed. This is also a function of the gas industry or a specialized company licensed for such activities. And when such a project is issued “in hand”, and in addition, you receive permission to install a geyser, then you can already carry out subsequent activities yourself. This is just the working stage at which you can save a tidy sum.

In the event that the old gas water heater will simply be replaced with a new one, no additional projects are needed. The main thing is to carry out all activities as indicated by the existing project for installing a geyser

If we talk about how to properly install a gas water heater in simple words, then for our part, based on the above regulatory documents, we want to note the following:

• the room must be at least 7.5 sq.m in area;
• adequate ventilation must be provided;
• half-ceiling distance (ceiling height) cannot be less than 2 m;
• the room must have a chimney - a diameter of 120 mm (in this case, we do not mean air vents that are in any apartment);
• in the plumbing system, the pressure should not be less than 0.1 atm;
• the installation of the column must be carried out on a wall made of non-combustible materials;
• the column is strictly forbidden to be placed above the gas stove - the minimum distance is 10 cm.

Requirements for the installation of geysers do not prohibit their installation in the bathroom. Today, this water heating equipment is installed only in the kitchen of a city apartment. But, if, according to the old project, the column is placed in the bathroom, then the law does not require transferring it at the expense of the consumer.

The procedure for processing documents

If the installation of a new geyser is planned in the same place and it does not exceed the old one in terms of power, then such a replacement is carried out according to the sketch, within the framework of the existing project.

This will require the following list of documents and their copies:

1. Gas supply project.
2. Certificate confirming the ownership of the apartment or house. For the private sector - an act on the right to use a land plot.
3. Registration certificate of an apartment or house.
4. The act of checking the condition of smoke and ventilation ducts. To obtain it, an application is first submitted to the service authorized in your region (housing and communal services, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, firefighters).
5. Technical passport of the new water heater.
6. Application for the replacement of a geyser without changing its location and capacity.

Requirements may vary by region.

An example of an application form provided to the gas service to replace the column. In some regions, additional requirements may be put forward for the installation of a gas alarm, the prohibition of turbocharged ventilation systems and others.

In all other cases, for example, when you need to move the column to another location or install a more powerful water heater, a new project is required.

The required documents are collected in the following order:

1. Obtaining a chimney inspection certificate.
2. Submission of an application to the Gorgaz (or other specialized organization with which an agreement has been concluded) for obtaining technical conditions for the replacement of a gas water heater.
3. After their manufacture, it is necessary to find a design organization to create a project.
4. Then the received documentation is coordinated in the metrological and technical department of the gas economy.
5. 5 days before the start of work on replacing the column, it is necessary to submit an application for technical supervision. At this stage, you will need to present an act on the condition of the chimney.
6. Installation work to replace the water heater is carried out by a licensed organization.
7. Connection to the gas system and commissioning of a new column is carried out by a Gorgas representative.

At the final stage, the following list of documents will be on hand: a project, an act of acceptance into operation of a gas appliance, an act of checking the chimney.

Violating the registration procedure, ignoring it, or trying to somehow get around it is a bad idea. As soon as illegal replacement / installation of equipment is revealed, the violator will be fined

Going through the paperwork can seem like a rather lengthy and costly procedure. But the competition that has appeared in recent years in the market for the provision of maintenance services for VDGO and VKGO contributes to its acceleration and simplification. In addition, all attempts to circumvent it, in most cases, are even more expensive.

Equipment installation algorithm

So, it is understood that the plumbing and chimney are already prepared for the installation of the column. Now on the surface of the wall, in the place where it will be located, points for fastening are marked. It should be noted that the vertical chimney must be at least 50 cm - for rooms with a ceiling height of 2.0 meters, and 25 cm - for rooms with a ceiling height of 2.7 meters. Further, holes are made in the wall and hooks are installed - the entire column can be hung in a permanent place.

At the next stage, using connecting hoses and PVC pipes, the water supply is connected to the inlet and outlet of the unit. Note that when working with hoses, you will not need to use FUM tape or tow. Upon completion of the installation of the pipeline, you need to open the cold and hot water taps to the column and inspect the system for leaks and tightness of the system

If a leak is detected, carefully tighten the fixing nuts of the hose. Do not be too zealous - there is a risk of damaging the seals. If the connections are made using FUM (tow), then in places of leakage, the seals must be repacked

If the connections are made with the help of FUM (tow), then in places of leaks, the seals must be repacked.

Scheme for connecting a geyser to utilities: 1 - gas pipe; 2 - gas valve; 3 - water valve; 4 - pipe with cold water; 5 - a pipe with hot water; 6 – column controls; 7 – column body; 8 - chimney pipe

Now it remains to bring gas to the column. We take a special flexible hose and fasten one end to the gas valve, and the other to the gas inlet in the column. We crimp the connections, and then treat them with soapy water. Now we open the gas, if there are no bubbles, then all the work has been done correctly. The work on installing the gas column can be considered completed.

When buying a new speaker, ask the store if they provide installation services for the equipment purchased from them. It often happens that this service is provided absolutely free of charge, as a bonus for the buyer. If so, then you are lucky - a qualified specialist will deal with the problem.

How to install a geyser

Self-installation is prohibited by the law of the Russian Federation, but since representatives of the gas service often remain elusive, we recommend that you mount the device yourself. Specialists should only be invited to connect the hose to the gas pipe and check all connections for leaks.

What to bring with you

First of all, prepare all the necessary materials and tools. You will need:

• new geyser;
• PVC pipes for water supply and metal-plastic pipes for gas;
• fitting;
• taps - gas and water (it is better to use ball valves);
• salt and magnetic filters;
• corrugation or galvanized pipe (if it comes with a column);
• Mayevsky's crane;
• a ring to make an entrance to the chimney;
• gas hose (its length depends on the distance between the pipe and the column);
• water hoses (also select the length depending on the distance);
• dowels and screws;
• gas key;
• pipe cutter;
• set of wrenches;
• drill;
• level;
• sealant, FUM tape and tow;
• soldering station for pipes.

In the case of a private house, you may also need a metal (asbestos) pipe to remove smoke. Its diameter should not be less than 120 mm, and its height should be two meters or more.

We remove the old

This is an old geyser, the use of which is not safe. It is best to replace it with a modern analogue.

If you already had a water heater, then, first of all, you need to dismantle it. For this:

1. Close all gas valves.
2. Using a spanner, unscrew the fixing nut on the hose.
3. Then remove the hose from the column. In the event that the hose is new and has no damage, then it can be used further. Otherwise, buy a new one.
4. Now you can proceed to disconnect the device from the water supply. Turn off the water (if there is a faucet near the column, then it is enough to turn it off, otherwise you will have to block access to the water for the entire apartment).
5. Remove the connecting pipe located at the outlet of the column and pull it out of the chimney.
6. Dismantle the water heater by removing it from the mountings.

Direct installation

Installation of a gas water heater takes place in several stages. After choosing a place, you need to prepare all communications: plumbing, chimney and gas pipeline. All this should be in close proximity to the future column, so that after installing the latter, you only have to connect the hoses to the pipes.

To connect the gas to the geyser, be sure to call the specialists of the special service.

1. So, the first step is to mark the place for the water heater. I hang it on a special bar that comes with the device. This is where you will need a drill, dowels and self-tapping screws. It is better to mark up with a level.
2. We drill holes, drive in dowels, apply a bar and fasten it to the wall with self-tapping screws.
3. The next step is to connect the water heater to the chimney. This is done using a corrugation or a metal pipe. Installing the latter is easy. The pipe must be put on the pipe (and the sleeve must also be tightened with a clamp) of the column. The other end is inserted into the chimney and covered with cement (possibly with asbestos). But do not forget that the horizontal section of the pipe cannot exceed 6 m and you cannot make more than 3 corrugation bends.
4. Now you can proceed to connect the column to the water supply. As mentioned earlier, the installation of pipes and branching is best done in advance. In this case, it is not always a good option to tie into the nearest line (if the pressure in it is weak, cut directly into the main pipe going to the apartment). Be sure to install a tap on the new branch that goes to the water heater so that you can repair the column or replace it without turning off the water in the entire apartment or house. To carry out the pipeline, you will need metal-plastic pipes and a soldering iron, as well as a faucet, couplings.
5. After finishing work with the hot and cold line piping, you just have to connect the hoses to the appropriate outlet and inlet to the column and to the pipes.

It looks like a chimney made of corrugations. The ring has a purely aesthetic value.

This completes your work.Connection to the gas pipe is carried out by specialists of the relevant service. A ball valve is also placed at the column inlet, all connections are sealed and then checked for leaks.

Requirements for installing a gas water heater

You understand that any gas equipment cannot be mounted anyhow without observing clearly established rules, because it is unsafe. What do you need to know first?

This is what we will leave to the respective services. However, there is work for you, because we want to do everything with high quality and save a decent amount (several thousand rubles) on calling the master.

So, we have 2 ways of development:

1. You put the column again - that is, it has never been in your apartment / house.

This is the most difficult and time-consuming option, because you will have to visit the gas service, whose employees will have to draw up a project for you to connect a gas water heater. Let's repeat again! Do not try to do it yourself - it is very dangerous for you, your family and neighbors!

Having received and agreed on the project, you can already install a water heater. And then you can roam, doing this part of the work yourself. By the way, you will save quite a decent amount - about 10 tr. (+-, it all depends on individual situations).

1. You dismantle the old column and install a new one.

This option is much easier: you do not need any projects, because you already have this equipment. All you need is to find an existing project and do all the work in accordance with it.

SNiP rules you need to know:

• The geyser can only be installed in a room with a volume of 7.5 cubic meters. AND MORE.
• The wall must be made of brick, concrete or any other non-combustible material.
• Be sure to have a window - the room should be well ventilated.
• Ceiling height - NOT LESS than 2 meters.
• The room requires a chimney with a diameter of 12 cm or more. At the same time, the so-called vents in the room will not pass for the chimney.
• The water pressure in the system must be 0.1 atm or more.
• It is strictly forbidden to install equipment in bathrooms, as well as above a gas stove and at a distance of less than 10 cm.

Important! If your old water heater was installed in a bathroom, then the rules do not oblige the owner to move it to another place. That is, you can easily replace the old column with a new one, placing it all in the same bathroom.

3 How to install a column and who should do this work?

It is better to leave the connection of the column to the gas distribution system to the gas service, but the preliminary installation of the device (connection to the water supply and installation on the supporting surface) can be done with your own hands.

To do this, do the following:

• Drill a hole in the wall.
• Insert a coaxial chimney into it and fill the voids with non-combustible insulation (mineral wool).
• Line the wall under the hole with tiles.
• Fix the column on the lined area (over the tiles) using brackets on its body and dowels.
• Insert a tee into a cold water supply, screw a valve and a check valve onto the free end.
• Connect the non-return valve to the cold water inlet / connection on the dispenser body.
• Mark a collector with shut-off valves above the cold branch of the water supply - it will distribute the hot flow along the lines leading to the sources of consumption (faucets and mixers).
• Connect the manifold and the hot water connection/fitting on the dispenser body.
• Arrange lines from the manifold to taps and mixers.

After that, you can contact the gas service - the completion of work on connecting the column, which includes the first start-up of gas and water, is carried out by gas specialists.

Connection and first start-up of gas must be carried out by a gas specialist

Well, if you are not going to do something with your own hands, find a company with permission to install gas-consuming appliances and order the services of experienced specialists.

Important nuances

The installation of a gas heater should be carried out by professionals who know how to work with gas equipment.
If the water heater is located in the bathroom, and this is often the case in old houses built in the 50s and 60s, it is not necessary to transfer it, although the installation of new speakers in such a room is not recommended due to insufficient volume (it should be at least 15 m3) and no window.
It is important to make sure that the ventilation of the room is sufficient.
If you want to hide a new column behind decorative panels, you should make sure that they are non-flammable and can be easily removed.

Liability for unauthorized installation

If the tie-in into the pipe to connect the column is made bypassing the meter, then such an act falls under Art. 7.19 of the AC RF. For this, administrative liability in the form of penalties is provided.

For individuals, fines range from one and a half to two thousand rubles. This is the least possible measure for illegally connected to the gas system.How the official connection to the gas centralized main is made is detailed in the following article, which we recommend that you familiarize yourself with.

In addition to the administrative code, unauthorized tapping and installation gas equipment falls under the action of the Federal Law No. 69 "On fire safety". According to the text of the document, the owner of the property bears administrative or criminal liability, depending on the severity of the consequences.

If the actions cause property damage to third parties, the owner will be obliged to compensate it in full. In addition, a fine of 80,000 rubles may be imposed for violation. If significant harm was caused to the health of neighbors, the owner may be taken under arrest and imprisoned for up to two years.

Requirements for the premises

There are certain requirements related both to the room as a whole and to the arrangement of channels for drawing out combustion products. Let's deal with the first category first. The premises must:

• have a cubic capacity of at least 7.5 cubic meters. meters, while the ceiling height should be at least two meters;
• have glazed windows that can be opened. This is necessary for emergency ventilation in case of force majeure;
• have a door. It is also necessary for quick ventilation. If the room is separated from others by an arch or just an open passage, then in any case, you will have to take care of installing a closing door.

Ventilation

In apartment buildings, ventilation shafts and ducts are laid, the exit of which is usually located in the kitchen. Thus, natural air exchange is ensured.

But you should not calm down with the mere presence of a ventilation outlet - it is important to make sure that everything works properly.

It often happens that the channels are clogged with debris. It may be several layers of ancient fat, which is pulled out of the kitchen along with the air during cooking. It can be bird nests - perhaps the most common problem. For some reason, birds are very fond of equipping a dwelling on a pipe that goes to the roof. As a result, it often falls inside. And sometimes the birds themselves get there, also clogging the passage with their bodies.

In general, there are quite a few probable factors, especially if the house does not belong to new buildings. Therefore, before installing and starting the column, it is necessary to check the condition of the ventilation system. It is quite possible to deal with this on your own.

Open the window, take a sheet of newspaper and bring it to the opening of the ventilation duct. If the sheet is stuck and held without your help, then the air is drawn out quite well. If not, call a specialist from the organization that serves the house. The master will diagnose and, if the channels are clogged, will properly clean them.

Chimney

Some apartment buildings are initially equipped with a channel for the removal of combustion products. This option is the easiest, because in this case you do not need to bother with laying - just connect the pipe to the existing outlet. But if there is no chimney in the house, then it will have to be done.

It is important to take into account several requirements:

the maximum allowable length of the chimney channel is 3 meters;
the number of bends is limited to two, while each of them must be located strictly at right angles;
the section of the chimney, supplied directly to the gas column, must be strictly vertical, while its length must be at least half a meter;
pipes used must be made of non-combustible materials

The combustion products have a high temperature, so it is important to exclude even the slightest chance of fire .. However, even with a high-quality exhaust device, the gas service may prohibit the use of such equipment

As a rule, it is installed in private houses, where a separate room is allocated for such equipment - a boiler room. It is usually located away from living rooms, so if the concentration of carbon monoxide is too high, people may not be affected. And in apartments, this is usually not possible. Therefore, it is better not to take risks and purchase a closed type of equipment.

As mentioned above, you cannot install gas equipment yourself. But you can control the work of specialists

To understand what exactly you should pay attention to, watch the video:

Subject to all connection rules, you will receive high-quality working equipment, uninterrupted supply of hot water, and all this without risk to health and life. Good luck!

If a gas water heater is not provided

In a house where the installation of gas equipment, such as a stove, is allowed, installation of a column may be prohibited. This restriction applies to houses with more than 11 floors. Not a single regulatory authority will issue a permit for installing a column in such an apartment, as this is dangerous for residents.

In addition to the number of storeys, redevelopment may become a reason for refusal. Studio apartments are not suitable for the installation of gas equipment, as the devices must be installed in non-residential premises.

If the kitchen is combined with the living room, then this makes the use of gas appliances illegal. Before redevelopment, these restrictions must be taken into account. The same can be attributed to apartments where the kitchen is missing or is shared.

Gallery of imagesPhoto from Gas water heaters with a flowing principle of operation in apartments are mainly used to prepare hot water, in old two-story buildings they can serve as a unit to maintain the temperature of the coolant. Installation of a gas water heater is allowed in houses no higher than five floors that are not connected to a centralized hot water system.In high-rise buildings connected to a central hot water supply, gas equipment is not installed. Small private houses with an area of ​​\u200b\u200bnot exceeding 150 m² are also equipped with gas flowers. The instantaneous water heater processes the water passing through it in the amount necessary for immediate use. and maintaining its temperature, which explains its small, easy-to-use dimensions. Gas instantaneous water heaters for apartments are produced in wall-mounted versions. They should be positioned so that free access is guaranteed for servicing the column and its connection points. More than two gas water heaters are not allowed in one room. It is allowed to use both flow and storage equipment in the amount of 1 pc. Exception - multi-level apartments Gas heating equipment is allowed to be installed only in private apartments and houses; where different people can be allowed to use Instantaneous gas water heaterProductive small-sized deviceOperation of the column in private homesAdvantages of the gas water heaterCompact dimensions of the flow equipmentFeatures of the heater placementTwo gas water heaters in one roomInstallation of the heater only in residential buildings and apartments

If the house does not fall under these restrictions, then it is necessary to collect a package of documents for registering the device.

The procedure is as follows:

1. Write an application to the gas distribution company.
2. Get a plan from BTI or Rosreestr.
3. Provide an extract from Rosreestr confirming ownership.
4. Contact the relevant organization to draw up a project.
5. Find certified specialists from an organization that has access to gas work.

After that, specialists will make a tie-in into the gas pipe, connect the device and put the water heater into operation.

It is highly not recommended to do the installation of a geyser with your own hands, bypassing the legal order. These actions not only lead to penalties, but also endanger people's lives.
