All people, coming to the dacha, first of all, want to feel here the opportunity to relax for the soul after a busy day at work. And therefore, their desire to create a comfortable, warm atmosphere for a complete, quality rest is understandable.
The arrangement of the house, its interior decoration, the interior of the summer cottage - this is the main thing that the powers of the mind and soul of people who come to relax and forget about everyday problems, unresolved issues and endless worries are aimed at.
Attribute for country coziness
A great idea would be to build a stove for a gazebo with your own hands. For many years, a stove has been considered a useful and even necessary attribute of a summer cottage. The presence of this structure allows you to have a wonderful family vacation in the fresh air.
The natural smell of a fire, on which barbecue is grilled, vegetables and potatoes are baked, creates the romance of the evening, making it unforgettable.
A gazebo with a stove with a beautiful design is a fairly convenient structure, the independent construction of which does not involve any overly complex actions and tasks. The stove in the gazebo will become a real decoration, a home in your area.
The first thing you should take care of is to correctly develop the project, calculate everything down to the smallest detail, so as not to encounter irreparable mistakes and serious problems with the implementation of the given plan in the future. Drawing up a project will help you clearly determine the dimensions and visually imagine what the future stove will look like in a particular location.
It is best to choose a place in the shade, away from wind gusts. Next, what needs to be done is to mark the foundation, the type of which can be determined by the weight of the structure.
The foundation usually hardens within five to seven days. It is recommended to lay metal tiles in the place where the gazebo with the stove will be located in the future.
However, gazebos with a stove are distinguished by a variety of options, each of which has something of its own. Construction of a stove requires an individual approach.
DIY construction of a wooden gazebo with barbecue and stove
Foundation
For a gazebo made of wood, a columnar foundation is sufficient, which can be built without any special construction skills. As for the stove, it needs a separate foundation, since it is made of stone or brick and has a lot of weight.
The foundation under the stove should be about 0.2 meters thick, and the perimeter of the base should be larger than the size of the stove. The equipment of the oven is determined depending on the size of the gazebo; if it is spacious, then you can place an oven, a brazier and a smokehouse, as well as a cutting surface here. After laying a solid concrete base, you need to cover it with roofing felt or coat it with bitumen mastic for reliable waterproofing.
Floor
The flooring in a wooden gazebo is usually presented as paving slabs or paving screed. These options are not only cost-effective, but also safe for working with open flames. If linoleum or wood is used as a floor covering, then a sheet of iron must be placed in front of the stove to prevent the possibility of fire.
It is also important that the floor covering of the open gazebo has a minimum angle of inclination to ensure natural flow of water in the direction opposite to the stove. Thanks to this, precipitation will quickly and easily drain from the floor covering without damaging it.
Walls
To construct a wooden frame, large rounded logs or beams with a cross-section of 150*150 millimeters are used. It is best to assemble the structure using the tongue-and-groove system, fastening the parts with anchor bolts. On top of the finished frame, you can attach cladding, which is used as wooden planed boards or logs. You can also use slats for grille equipment.
Wood is a relatively inexpensive building material, but with the right approach you can save additional money. For example, you can buy untreated second-grade boards and sand them yourself, cut them and treat them with antiseptics, as a result, costs will be reduced by 30-40%.
A laconic, but at the same time no less functional option is the arrangement of a pergola. A pergola is a gazebo in the form of an arch made of timber with a roof in the form of a lattice ceiling. The stove protrudes from one of the walls of the building and is equipped with a cupboard, sink and cutting surface. The remaining walls are decorated with trellises or climbing plants.
The sides of the fireplace must be covered with barriers that protect it from rain and strong gusts of wind. It is important that the protective partition does not come into contact with the hot stove. This possibility can be eliminated by placing asbestos, glass wool or any other fire-resistant material between them. Wooden parts located near the barbecue must be treated with a special impregnation (fire retardant), which creates a protective film that protects the wood for 5-7 years.
Roof
As a roofing covering for a wooden gazebo, you need to use lightweight material, for example, polycarbonate, sheet or profiled metal, slate or flexible tiles. Soft roofing materials can only be installed overlapping on a solid wooden sheathing made of OSB boards or moisture-resistant plywood. In addition, it is necessary to use layers of vapor barrier and waterproofing; if the gazebo is used year-round, then a layer of insulation is also provided.
In the rafter system, sheathing and roofing, it is necessary to provide an opening for the barbecue chimney, and it is important that the walls of the chimney do not touch the structure; this can be prevented by using a non-combustible protective layer. On top you need to install protection for the chimney from precipitation. A wooden gazebo with barbecue and stove is an attractive, environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution for enjoying food in the fresh air.
Various types of stoves for gazebos
Several options for constructing stoves for summer cottages are presented to people:
- stove-barbecue . This design is small in size. A columnar foundation should be laid under it;
- barbecue oven . This option is very compact and convenient. This type of stove is covered with tiles, which makes it suitable for a summer kitchen;
- smokehouse _ This type is universal and very convenient. It is typical for large furnace complexes and requires large material costs.
Natural warmth of a Russian stove
Of particular interest is the Russian stove in the gazebo. Naturally, it is impossible to place a real stove in a gazebo with limited space, no matter how much you want. In addition, against the general background it will look too bulky, massive and heavy. A profitable and reasonable alternative would be a mini Russian stove for a gazebo.
The undeniable advantage of this type of structure is its versatility. This version of the oven involves not only frying meat. Its functions are by no means limited to this. You can cook hot dishes, porridge, stew vegetables, and bake pancakes in it. The Russian stove is quite difficult to construct, since it only fits the Russian gazebo.
However, despite all the difficulties, the stove is convenient for any type of recreation. The ability to cook various foods besides barbecue will diversify your stay at the dacha and turn it into a real holiday.
Brick gazebo stoves are efficient and colorful in appearance. Even with a small amount of experience, you can create this type of stove for gazebos with your own hands. To build it, you need red refractory brick, the laying of which is carried out with ligation. The connection of bricks is carried out using mortars, which include sand, clay, and cement.
It is best to place a brick stove in the center of the gazebo, as well as against the back wall, since with this arrangement you will protect the fire from windy, rainy weather. To build a brick oven, the following materials are required: oven fittings, concrete, fireclay brick, cement and clay mortar, solid brick.
Construction of a gazebo
The first thing to do is to choose a favorable location for the future gazebo. It should not be located very far from the main building, but it must be taken into account that smoke from the fireplace does not enter it. The best option is a cleared area, near large trees or a small pond.
Next you need to decide on the size of the building. This depends primarily on the number of people in the family. In practice, the most common gazebo sizes are:
- Width - 2 meters.
- Length - 3 meters.
But all sizes are purely individual, you can either reduce them or increase them.
An excellent replacement option for an oven, barbecue and barbecue
A stove complex for a gazebo is a universal and multifunctional structure, which includes a countertop, oven, and roaster. To create additional convenience, it will be possible to install water supply into the gazebo.
It is better to install the firebox on the opposite side of the tabletop in order to avoid inconvenience when working on the work surface. It is recommended to place the fryer next to the chamber for cooking food from the front part. If you decide to install a damper, you will be able to use the remaining heat for baking and simmering various dishes.
This design is a kind of small kitchen, which provides a place for cooking and storing dishes.
Types of gazebos
The recreation area at the dacha or on the territory of a country house can be equipped with several options for gazebos.
There are three types of construction projects according to the degree of closure:
- Open gazebo.
- Partially closed.
- Capital closed.
Outdoor gazebo with fireplace
The choice of type of building should be balanced, depending on the weather conditions of your region. If your climate is hot enough, then it makes more sense to build an open-air gazebo. If climatic conditions suggest frequent winds or unexpected precipitation, then a partially closed type option will come in handy.
For climates with cold conditions, it is recommended to erect permanent structures that are not only intended for cooking, but will also serve as protection from the cold.
