Keskuslämmityskattilan

Keskuslämmityskattila, often referred to as a central heating boiler, is a device designed to heat water or other fluids that are then circulated throughout a building to provide warmth. This system is a fundamental component of most modern heating infrastructures. The boiler typically burns a fuel source, such as natural gas, oil, propane, or solid fuels like wood or coal, to generate heat. This heat is transferred to the water within the boiler's heat exchanger. The heated water is then pumped through a network of pipes to radiators, baseboard heaters, or radiant floor systems located in different rooms. As the water circulates and releases its heat, it eventually returns to the boiler to be reheated, creating a continuous cycle. Modern central heating boilers are often highly efficient, with condensing boilers being a common example that recovers additional heat from the exhaust gases. They play a crucial role in maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures, particularly in colder climates, and can also be integrated with systems for domestic hot water production. The operation and maintenance of a keskukslämmityskattila require careful attention to safety and efficiency.
