First, the American fireplace overview
1. The so-called fireplace is a decorative item that is reflected in the decoration of European style for many owners. In fact, it is only decorative, and has no practical significance. When watching TV, I personally think that Chinese families in the early years did not have a wall or a fireplace.
2. The fireplace was originally used in western countries and has decorative effects and practical value. According to the culture of different countries, it is divided into: American fireplace, English fireplace, French fireplace and so on. The basic structure of the fireplace includes: mantelpiece and fireplace core. The mantelpiece serves as a decoration. The fireplace core serves a practical role. Mantels are classified according to their materials: marble mantels, wooden mantels, marble mantels (resin), and stacked mantels. Fireplace cores are classified according to fuel: electric fireplaces, real fire fireplaces (carbon burning, wood burning), gas fireplaces (natural gas). There is also a magical effect of the fireplace. People sitting next to the fireplace watching the changes in the flames can predict the change of the weather. If the flames are pale, or there are a lot of abnormal Mars or ash, or suddenly there is coal ash falling, It all indicates that it is raining.
Second, the American fireplace size
1. The wood burning fireplace needs to install the flue on the roof, while the gas fireplace does not need an extra chimney. It only needs to cut a hole of about 20 cm on the side outer wall, before and after the decoration. Both high-rise buildings and villas can be constructed. The gas fireplace is a balanced exhaust. 100% of the combustion air is drawn in from the outside through a coaxial duct. Small pipes are embedded in the large pipes to ensure complete isolation of the combustible gas, thus ensuring the quality of the indoor air. The ventilation ducts can pass horizontally through the outer wall or vertically through the roof to meet the heating needs of 80-200 square meters or as an auxiliary heating device.
2, the installation of the fireplace does not require the type of the house, mainly the matching with the space, and the match with the big environment. For example, the height of 2.6 meters, you can not be too high in the fireplace, must be around 1.2 meters. There is also space size. If the space is 40-50 square meters and the height is 2.8 meters, then you can install a fireplace of about 1.7*1.3, which should be matched according to the overall structure.
