Brands of gas heating boilers. The best gas boilers for the home according to customer reviews

Any dacha owner is faced with the question: how to improve the dacha heating complex. In any part of the Russian Federation it is necessary to winter period year to heat the home. It’s hard to imagine the life of a person living in the Russian Federation without a heating complex in their home. Everyone knows that oil, coal, and gas are always becoming more expensive. The site presents many summer cottage heating systems that use absolutely different ways heat production. Any heating system can be used independently or hybridly.

Year after year, the popularity of double-circuit gas boilers is only increasing. Every season producers heating equipment offer new modifications of boilers with increased power, improved design and modern electronic equipment. Let's carry out short review gas double-circuit heating boilers, which are found on Russian markets.

Double-circuit gas boilers appear year after year in every season in new modifications, and at the same time their design and electronic filling are only improving.

The main function of a gas boiler is to heat the building, so the choice of the most suitable option must be made based on its main characteristics.

An important function of a heating boiler is to heat water for various needs. Need in warm water depends on the number of people who can use it at the same time, and for each family this need may differ significantly.

For heating domestic water, double-circuit gas boilers can be classified into three options:

• double-circuit gas boilers with flow-through DHW coolant;
• double-circuit gas boilers with a built-in boiler with a volume of 40 to 60 liters. This option is optimal for cottages and apartments with no more than 3 bathrooms (family up to 5 people);
• boilers with a boiler up to 500 l.

The choice of boiler type for heating systems is mainly influenced by the need for hot water, the cost of equipment and its installation. Let's take a quick look various types gas double-circuit boilers.

Review of double-circuit mounted boilers with a flow-through DHW heat exchanger

Double-circuit mounted boilers with a flow-through DHW heat exchanger have high level reliability, allow their installation without extra costs, making them a good option for hot water supply and heating.

Dual-circuit mounted installations for heating - the most popular option for gas boilers, the main advantages of which are:

• performing two functions: providing warm water for various needs (no more than 2 water points) and heating of premises with an area of ​​no more than 300 sq.m;
• high level of reliability, which is achieved thanks to the presence various functions safety and constant internal condition monitoring heating system;
• low costs taking into account component materials and installation work;
• modern design and compact dimensions allow them to be installed on any wall without disturbing the interior of the room, and mounted in kitchen furniture;
• equipped with all the necessary equipment for heating the building and heating water, which allows their installation without extra costs;
• have all the functions for water supply and heating, and are also easy to operate.

Double-circuit mounted boilers are mainly produced with a power from 24 to 32 kW and are divided into units according to cost:

• economy class, which are quite cheap and allow you to have hot water supply and heating at low cost;
• standard class, which are equipped with all the necessary functions for comfortable heating of the building and warm water supply;
• elite class - equipped with a fast hot water supply function and other useful functions with which you can achieve increased comfort;
• condensing type, which are characterized by durability, high reliability, silent operation and high efficiency, however, such units are quite expensive.

As the review showed, double-circuit mounted boilers are a good option for hot water supply and heating of a house, apartment or small cottage. It is worth noting that such units are capable of providing a maximum of 2 water intake points, because increasing them will lead to a decrease in water temperature. It is advisable that these points be located close to the boiler itself.

Review of double-circuit mounted boilers with a built-in boiler for 40-60 l

A double-circuit gas boiler with a boiler has antibacterial protection and will provide an unhindered supply of hot water to a family of 3-5 people.

Such a gas unit is the best option for a cottage and apartment and has a number of advantages over boilers with a flow-through heat exchanger. A built-in boiler of up to 60 liters makes it possible to spend about 400 liters of water at a temperature of up to 30°C in 30 minutes, and reheating the water is carried out in no more than 20 minutes. This boiler allows you to easily use hot water family of 3-5 people. One of the functions of such a boiler is antibacterial protection, in which the water in the boiler is periodically heated to 80°C.

The main advantages of these units are:

• high level of reliability thanks to a unique monitoring system and the presence various systems security;
• equipped with everything necessary equipment in one housing, which makes them easy to install;
• simultaneously provide warm water to up to 4 water points, as well as heating rooms up to 350 sq.m.;
• easy to operate and maintain.

If we compare mounted boilers with a built-in boiler in cost and size with other types of heating systems, then they occupy an intermediate value between single-circuit units in combination with a boiler and double-circuit boilers with a heat exchanger.

Review of boilers with a boiler up to 300 l

Such units are divided into three groups:

1. Floor-standing boilers with a boiler up to 120 l.
2. “Combi” is a mounted single-circuit unit that is installed on a floor-standing boiler.
3. Single-circuit boiler and separate boiler up to 500 l.

The third option can provide warm water to a huge number of people, but when installing it you need to buy optional equipment. Such a unit takes up a lot of space and requires special skills when installing it.

When the question arises about installing a heating system in your home, you will be faced with a huge range of boilers: from solid fuel, coal and wood fired, to gas and electric. But still, in our country, gas boilers are the most popular, since, on the one hand, the stability of electricity supply to the regions sometimes leaves much to be desired, and the cost of natural gas as a fuel compared to the cost of electricity is significantly less, respectively its use is much more economical. On the other hand, unlike solid fuel boilers, gas boilers do not require regular attention several times a day (to add firewood).

But even if you decide to heat the room natural gas, the problem of choice before you will not narrow significantly. Gas boilers are also available:

• wall or floor;
• single-circuit (for heating only) or double-circuit (heating and hot water heating), and double-circuit, in turn, come with a combined boiler or flow-through;
• steel or cast iron;
• volatile (dependent on electricity) or not;
• with multifunctional automatic or simple mechanical.

To decide on the type of boiler to choose, you can read about their distinctive features in the relevant articles on our website, and in this article we will review the most common brands of gas boilers from luxury to economy class.

Executive class gas boilers

This class of gas boilers is represented by the following most famous brands: Buderus, Vaillant, Viessmann (all from Germany), De Dietrich (France), etc.

The market offers a huge variety of foreign-made boilers of different price ranges; there are also Russian gas heating boilers, the prices of which are more affordable. Let's take a closer look at them and try to understand the proposals of the domestic manufacturer.

A boiler is, first and foremost, a functional device, and it is not cheap to purchase. But the most important thing is that with the right choice, it is the boiler that can significantly reduce the costs of its owner, and solely from good choice depends on the number of repairs of the heating system, the frequency of visits to service centers and the participation of the residents of the house in the maintenance of heating equipment.

Will the boiler start at the beginning of the season, will it have to be lit manually and how often, will it provide the maximum possible savings on heating, will the boiler lead to air pollution and the room in which it is installed, will it lose its appearance over time and how long will it last - all this depends on the correct choice of boiler suitable for a particular room. Moreover, you can avoid all of the above inconveniences without overpaying, but simply by competently choosing heating equipment.

When choosing a gas boiler, you usually pay attention to the following characteristics:

Boilers are classified according to installation method, functionality and method of exhaust gas removal. According to the method of installation, boilers are wall-mounted and floor-mounted, according to the type of functionality they are single- and double-circuit, and according to the method of gas removal - with a closed and open combustion chamber.

Floor-standing boilers are in greatest demand: they allow heating a large area, are reliable and have a wide power range - 11–68 kW.

Russian manufacturers have learned to produce floor-standing boilers adapted to our operating conditions and capable of competing with imported models, therefore, by purchasing a Russian-made floor-standing gas boiler, you can reduce start-up costs and get a completely reliable heating device that is in no way inferior to foreign ones.

The storage unit can hold up to two hundred liters of water. Thus, if you buy a double-circuit floor-standing gas boiler made in Russia, two problems are solved at once - heating and hot water supply. Sometimes it makes sense to purchase single-circuit boiler boiler, then it will work on the double-circuit principle. However, double-circuit boilers are much more compact, so they are better suited for rooms with limited space. But they have a requirement: the flow of incoming water must be under high pressure. In addition, they are not suitable in cases where the bathroom is located at a great distance from the boiler itself.

Closed and open combustion chamber

Regarding the type of combustion chamber - open camera uses the room air, and exhausts the exhaust gas through the chimney; the closed one (turbo) contains fans that take air from the outside and send combustion products there. Open combustion boilers operate on the principle gas burners, they heat up themselves, warm up the air around them (hence the lower efficiency), and require some distance from flammable objects. Turbo models are considered more economical and safe.

Among domestic models you can find all the listed types of floor-standing boilers, choosing according to the necessary parameters. Experts believe modern boilers gas floor-standing ones made in Russia, even if they do not have highly competitive technical and performance characteristics, perform their basic functions properly.

Popular Russian manufacturers of heating equipment

Choosing heating equipment according to affordable price, it is reasonable to proceed from considerations of individual needs, focusing not only on the brand. In general, reviews of floor heating are increasingly positive, perhaps this is due to a decrease in purchasing power, or maybe our compatriots have begun to trust local manufacturers more and have given themselves the opportunity to evaluate Russian equipment.

Domestic gas boilers have a number of advantages for Russian buyers:

• reasonable price;
• good service base;
• optimal efficiency.

Among the disadvantages of Russian boilers are:

1. large weight and dimensions;
2. inability to regulate temperatures;
3. often outdated design.

Zhukovsky Machine-Building Plant

The plant has been producing heating equipment for more than 40 years. The company presents boilers of three series (types) on the market: Economy, Universal and Comfort. Depending on the type, Zhukovsky gas boilers are equipped with imported automation or the development of our own engineers. The automation disconnects/connects the burner, monitoring the temperature in the heating system, monitors the readings of safety sensors and turns off the gas supply to the boiler if a potentially dangerous situation occurs. All ZhMZ models do not require connection to the electrical network. Among them there are both double-circuit (AKGV) and single-circuit models (AOGV).

Floor-standing gas boilers ZHMZ of the Economy series are equipped with an atmospheric burner, equipped with emergency draft sensors, are easy to set up, and have high efficiency. However, these models do not provide protection against overheating, which requires a more accurate calculation of power when purchasing a boiler, as well as periodic manual ignition of the igniter in cases where the protection is triggered. In addition, economy-type devices require a mandatory annual maintenance procedure before the start of the season.

But the price for Zhukovsky gas floor heating boilers is so attractive that these minor inconveniences can be ignored. In addition, the listed service features apply only to Economy series boilers. The automation of the Universal and Comfort models is more advanced (made in Italy and Germany, respectively). These models do not require maintenance, are reliable and unpretentious.

Price is one of the main advantages of Zhukovsky heating devices, but not the only one. In addition to their low cost, they have high efficiency (80 - 92%), a high degree of reliability and have a long service life. The standards of the plant, which, by the way, also produces special aviation equipment, inspire confidence in the strength and long service heating equipment produced here. If you need a Russian-made floor-standing gas boiler whose price is minimal and whose operation is stable, perhaps you should take a closer look at Zhukov’s models.

Borinskoe

Like Zhukovsky, this plant has been producing heating equipment for quite a long time - more than 20 years. The company produces single-circuit and double-circuit boilers with the usual markings AOGV and AKGV, as well as boilers of its own design of the ISHMA series. All of them are equipped with imported automatic equipment, almost all models are non-volatile, differ relatively modern design and low price.

The reviews for Borino gas boilers are quite good, they speak especially warmly about the ISHMA series models - they are additionally equipped with gas pressure sensors, providing the devices with an increased level of equipment automation and helping to reduce specific gas consumption by about 15-20%. An important advantage of Borin heating devices is the durability of the budget AOGV and AKGV series due to a reliable cast iron heat exchanger. True, this affects the cost.

For comparison, heat exchangers of ZhMZ boilers are made of steel, so they are cheaper. Due to the cast iron elements, some models of Borin boilers are also heavy.

For those who are looking for floor-mounted Russian gas heating boilers, which are particularly durable, it is worth considering models from Borinskoye OJSC.

In general, if you compare boilers by heat exchanger material, you should take into account some comparative characteristics of cast iron and steel models.

Steel heat exchangers:

• cheaper than cast iron;
• easier to transport and install;
• They last a little less than cast iron.

Modern steel grades at correct operation provide a service life of up to 30 years.

Cast iron heat exchangers:

It should be borne in mind that prices for floor-standing gas boilers made in Russia partly depend on the material of the heat exchanger.

If you need to buy a single-circuit floor-standing gas boiler that would look attractive, you should also consider Borinsky’s proposals. The boilers are coated with polymer enamel, which gives them an attractive appearance: they will fit well into a modern interior and will look quite impressive. But there are also disadvantages: increased sensitivity to fuel quality and susceptibility to corrosion.

In general, Borinsky’s heating equipment is perhaps even the most reliable domestic gas floor heating boilers, the prices of which are significantly lower than similar offers on the foreign market. All models of Borinsky boilers are ideally suited for operation in Russia and are characterized by high efficiency, up to 90%.

"Signal"

The Engel heating equipment plant “Signal” has recently been gaining popularity. His gas boiler Signal KOV-10ST and other models are collecting good reviews, given the optimal price/quality ratio, however, installation of Signal boilers can be difficult due to divergent connector standards. Reviews for this Signal gas boiler are generally positive, as for other models of the manufacturer. They attract mainly due to their low price.

The market offers single and dual-circuit models, the automation is imported, and is moderately capricious in operation.

For many who decide to buy a floor-standing gas boiler, price often becomes the main selection criterion, but the Russian market offers such a variety of heating equipment made in Russia and the CIS at a relatively equal and affordable price that it is possible to choose a model that matches requirements for all key parameters.

Many became interested in the small-sized and attractively designed Pechkin boilers (Taganrog), choosing as the main argument that, for example, the Pechkin KSG-10 gas boiler is small in size and equipped with an autonomous water heating system continuous action. And someone chooses a Hephaestus floor-standing gas boiler, which has an original water-tube heat exchanger design based on the “Russian stove” principle, which ensures quick and efficient heating of the entire heating system.

You can buy a ThermoBar gas boiler (Ukraine) with a multi-section atmospheric burner, which ensures clean combustion products, silent operation and avoids the accumulation of soot in the combustion chamber even during long-term operation of the device. You can read about other popular Ukrainian-made gas boilers. In addition to the manufacturers mentioned above, the Lemax and Rostovgazapparat enterprises have steadily occupied their niches.

Lemax

The offers of the Taganrog enterprise Lemax will be of interest to those who cannot decide on the type of boiler heating: Lemax offers solid fuel heating devices that can be easily converted to gas. The company offers gas boilers in three types, both single-circuit and double-circuit, distinctive features most of which include a special coating of the steel heat exchanger that protects the boiler from corrosion. There are models with cast iron heat exchangers. All boilers are equipped with imported components, have high efficiency, and are energy independent.

Rostovgazapparat

Rostov equipment is valued for its design feature, which allows complete combustion of fuel. Heat exchangers at this enterprise are made of steel, cast iron and copper. The boilers are equipped with high-quality imported automation.

Quietness, environmental friendliness, design, dimensions - any of these parameters can become a decisive argument when choosing. The main thing is that domestic manufacturers have learned to create heating equipment that is affordable and capable of competing with the foreign market.

Hot water supply and high indoor air temperature are the key to a comfortable stay. Providing such amenities at the expense of city services has long been unprofitable, and even inconvenient - the temperature is sometimes low, sometimes high, and perhaps even a complete shutdown in cold weather. In this case, it will be important to buy the best gas boiler for your home, which can replace both a solid fuel boiler and a boiler in one “person”. Choose suitable option for big and small room Our rating of the most effective equipment will help.
