NEW VULCANO New generation thermo-fireplaces
Vulcano produces a single range of thermo-fireplaces with four different potentials, suitable for heating surfaces
from 0 to 320 m 2 . All models have the same aesthetics, but the overall dimensions, weight and water content change. Each model can be requested based on individual system needs: with only the primary exchanger, with the primary and a secondary, with the primary and two secondaries.
Since the exchangers are all inside the thermo-fireplaces, in order to identify them, the number of exchangers contained is added to each code.
The right choice
As for the model suitable for the size of the house, you can use the table below, taking care not to exceed the minimum or maximum limits. The thermo-fireplace must be chosen based on the size of the house and the needs of the system created or to be created
Heating
Vulcano was not created to only help with the main heating system. It was created instead to provide homes with all the heat they need.
The thermo-fireplaces heat homes up to 300m 2 completely autonomously, without any need for help from other generators. This even in very cold areas or in poorly insulated homes.
Heating is provided by the existing system, whatever it is. The new models are equipped with a special thermal flywheel that makes them particularly suitable for floor systems.
Domestic Hot Water
The Vulcano thermo-fireplace provides hot water in large quantities and at high temperatures, as much as and more than the best gas boilers. It is also equipped with an internal reserve that guarantees the supply for several hours, even in the absence of fire.
In practice: by loading wood in the morning you have hot water coverage for the entire day. By loading in the evening you have hot water for the next day too. All directly, without additional exchangers or boilers.
So we can certainly say that during the period of use of the Vulcano thermo-fireplace the gas boiler will almost always remain off and costs will drop dramatically and performance will increase.
It can also be turned on from above
Thermo-fireplaces have two distinct functions: that of a boiler and that of a fireplace. Vulcano is the only one that performs both without penalizing either of them. From the fireplace aspect, Vulcano works in a natural way like a classic fireplace. Its use is simple, pleasant and accessible to everyone. Vulcano can be loaded in any way. Even by placing the wood one on top of the other as if you wanted to stack it. Combustion will be excellent in any case. It can be loaded with both small and large loads of wood. A good load can guarantee 6 or 7 hours of heating autonomy and 12 to 24 hours of hot water
Vulcano burns at any point in the combustion chamber, both in the center and on the sides. Once the flame is ignited, the wood burns slowly and steadily until it is completely exhausted, without any need for manual intervention. During the entire phase from lighting to extinguishing the fire, the wood remains still. Therefore there is no risk of it falling or even crashing against the glass of the door. Once the load is exhausted, a layer of embers remains that covers the entire surface of the thermo-fireplace. This is the best time for barbecue lovers. In terms of boiler, Vulcano has the same performance as a gas boiler in both the heating and domestic hot water functions and its management is also extremely simple.
Consumption
Autonomy
The above data refers to an autonomy of approximately 6 hours and wood with humidity around 20%
The Electronic Control Units
The Vulcano thermo-fireplace control units automatically manage any system situation. To avoid incorrect settings, they are factory-calibrated to the best possible operating conditions. Each control unit is equipped with an explanatory sheet containing the electrical diagram, the connection points, the blocks it is equipped with and the relative functions. The connection points are also shown on the terminal board
The display lock allows you to view the temperature in the thermo-fireplace: up to 29° you see two lines, from 30° to 98° you see the degrees, at 99° they become intermittent. In the descending phase at 97° they become fixed again, at 29° the lines reappear
The pump block starts and stops the circulator in three ways. Automatically: between 55° and 59° intermittently, above 59° continuously; in the descending phase: up to 60° continuously, below intermittently, at 53° stopped
In the antifreeze function the control unit activates the circulator at 4° and stops it at 5°. Between 5° and 54° it can also be activated manually. Outside these temperatures it goes into automatic mode
The alarm block signals the boiling of the thermo fireplace by means of the acoustic alarm and by the intermittent degrees on the display. The heating block allows you to automatically alternate the thermo fireplace with other boilers between 55° and 53°
The summer- winter block allows you to select between hot water supply only and the simultaneous hot water - heating function
The hot water block allows you to control any solenoid valves to alternate the supply of hot water between the thermo-fireplace and other producers. The alternation occurs between 43° and 44°
