Install the boiler in a special cabinet
If we still stop at this option, then it should be noted that most often you will need to make this cabinet yourself, to the size of the boiler - it is not always easy.
About this and talk, how to do it?
We need to know the dimensions of our boiler. The walls of the future cabinet should be placed at a distance of at least 3-5 cm from the walls of the boiler.
The same applies to the bottom of the cabinet. Thus, we get a comfortable cabinet for installation and protect it from overheating.
We purchase a decorative (for your kitchen) door, taking into account these dimensions and it is desirable that there are holes for ventilation in this door.
It would be ideal if there is another door in this door for reading data from the boiler. It also applies to the floor boiler.
Also, take into account the depth of our cabinet. Add 3-5 cm in depth. In one of the walls of the cabinet, you must first make an outlet for communications.
It is very important to observe perpendicularity in the construction of the cabinet, for this use the building triangle. Pay special attention to the fasteners of the door and the cabinet itself to the wall - it must be reliable.
After the door is fixed, this cabinet will become almost invisible in your kitchen.
Covering the plasterboard boiler
This method is very similar to the above, only the cabinet itself is made from (convenient to use) construction plasterboard.
We perform the same operations above and attach a decorative door.
Do not forget - the walls of drywall has a relatively high thickness, remember this when assembling and installing your cabinet.
Paint the boiler in the colors of the kitchen
It should be remembered that such operations should be done with extreme caution. Use only those paints that can withstand high temperatures and are not toxic.
Also, it would not be superfluous to pre-clean the surface of the boiler and treat with soapy water, for better painting quality.
The disadvantage of this method is that such coverage will be short-lived.
Ways to hide communications
Of course, besides the main boiler, we should hide it from prying eyes and its communication. How to do it?
The easiest way is to make a decorative wardrobe for communications. Suitable as conventional materials, and drywall.
Another good solution is to visit the building supermarkets. In them you can find ready-made decorative covers for communication.
Also, you can choose the color and texture you need, depending on your kitchen.
You can always make an additional light or holder from your decorative casing for anything. This will also be an excellent decorative solution to hide communications. However, it should be borne in mind that you and gas producers should always have easy access to them.
