Do -it -yourself fireplace equipment

The presence of a fireplace in your house will give not only the atmosphere of comfort, but also emphasizes the status of the owner of the house. What could be more beautiful than sitting in the winter with guests near the burning hearth!

In order to build a fireplace, it is not necessary to attract specialists, because it is quite possible to build it yourself.

If you decide to build this design element in your house, you need to decide on the place where it will be located. Often the fireplace is performed in the bedroom, guest room or hall. When choosing a place, it should be noted that fire does not like drafts, so try to choose a place away from windows and doors. Based on fire norms, the fireplace should only be placed near the stone or brick wall.

The choice of material that can be used in the construction of the fireplace is quite large: concrete, brick, artificial stone, granite, natural stone. You will also need a thermal insulation material for building.

The fireplace will be built on the foundation. The foundation is made of concrete screed (up to 15 cm to thickness). Two insulating layers from roofing material are placed under the screed.

The base for the fireplace is made of refractory brick. Before laying, put the bricks in the water so that they gain moisture, this will give a more strong adhesion of the solution with the surface of the brick (or iron).
