A gas column is a technique used for water heating in private houses and apartments. For this, it uses natural gas, therefore is the cheapest (in terms of operation), and therefore a popular device in this category household appliances. When buying such devices, buyers are often wondering which gas column is better. To answer this question, you need to know possible options for choosing and their features, and then defined in priority parameters.

Varieties of gas water heaters

Some buyers are often confused by gas columns for heating boilers. These are different things. The first are used for water heating for the purpose of washing dishes or bathing, and the second - for the purpose of heating housing.

The principle of operation of the gas column is simple - the incoming gas burns and highlights the heat that is sent to the heat exchanger, heating it. This node is usually manufactured from copper or other materials with high thermal conductivity. And the coil is spinning around it, made of the same material to heat up from the temperature of the heat exchanger. Cold water enters the serpentine and, passing along it, gradually heats up, and then sent to the crane, being already hot. As for the resulting combustion products, they come into chimney and leave the room.

Modern gas columns are divided into species on the following signs:

• at the place of production - abroad or in Russia;
• by the type of ignition: manual, automatic or semi-automatic;
• power: low, medium and high;
• by type of management: Mechanical or with a flame modulation;
• according to the combustion chamber: open or closed;
• performance: Heating hot water from 5 to 25 l per minute;
• by the number of points of water intake: one or two.

Thus, there are many flow of domestic columns, so you should choose a reliable and high-quality device into the house, given a number of selection criteria.

Criteria for selecting speakers

Before buying a column for a private house or for Khrushchev, you need to decide how the technique will be involved. To do this, it is necessary to take into account for which the number of points you need to feed water, what kind of power is necessary, the ignition type and other factors.

Power

Gas columns are distinguished low, medium and high power. In the first case, the device (from 9 to 20 kW) is designed to heat water only for one point. The second type columns (from 20 to 24 kW) make it possible to use two points at once, but for one of them water pressure will be significantly weaker. While high power technique (over 25 kW) is able to supply hot water with the same intensity by 2 points, or by 3, but already with different pressure.

Tip! For one-bedroom apartment With one or two tenants have a sufficiently low-power device. For a family of 3 people, it is better to choose an average power device. If there are several cohabitants in the house (from 4) or bathrooms more than one, then you should stop the technique with high power.

Palsy

By type of hilt gas columns are manual, semi-automatic (with piezorozhig) or automatic. The first are considered obsolete and today is practically not issued. To ignite them, you need to light the stall, and then turn the handle to supply the gas and the ignition of the burner. In semi-automatic columns for inciting gas entering the stall, you need to press a button to generate a spark, and then open it to the burner.

Tip! Throughout the day, the semi-automatic column, you can not extinguish, which means that it will only be necessary to open the flow to the gas burner.

IN automatic speakers Batteries are used for ignition, and the burner is lit when the hot water crane knob turns. Manual and semi-automatic columns are cheaper, but they need to hang it like easy access to the device. In addition, the instruments with piezorozhig is constantly in a small amount of gas. Automatic gas water heaters work completely independently, they do not need access, and there is no need for constant burning of the fist.

When choosing a gas column, attention should be paid to such an important characteristic as the installation of water temperature, which depends on the intensity of flame burning and allows you to assign and maintain the selected temperature mode . There are three types of adjustment.

• step, at which three modes are available: low, medium and high temperature;
• smooth, in this case, the regulator gradually switches the installation from the minimum value to the maximum one;
• automatic, in which the device independently determines the temperature due to electronic sensors.

Water pressure

In addition to adjusting from outside, the water pressure also affects the final temperature. If it rises or decreases, the temperature will change. In cases where the power of the burner does not change, it is necessary to establish the degree of water heating, and this causes certain inconveniences.

Tip! When choosing it better to stop on the column, which has a burner has a modulating power. It is independently adjusted to the changing pressure and supports the installed water temperature.

Depending on the exhaust system and the method of outputting combustion products, water heaters are turbocharged or with exit to chimney. The first to take smoke and burnt particles out through the hole in the wall, and the second - in the general chimney. According to this criterion, each determines for itself a preferential way output, based on the planned column location.

Safety

In addition to the criteria listed above, it is worth paying attention to the presence of safety sensors. These include:

• combustion and ionization sensors - if the flame goeshes, they overlap the gas supply;
• the thrust sensor - determines its presence, and if there is no traction, or the carbon monoxide goes back to the room, then the flow of gas is blocked;
• hydraulic valve - turns off overheat technique;
• the flow sensor - when opening the crane, turns on the column, and when closing it performs the opposite effect;
• the safety valve is responsible for protection of pipes from breaks when water pressure increases;
• pressure reduction sensor - in the absence of water or low pressure, this element blocks the start of the column;
• gas supply sensor - stops the operation of the water heater, if there is no gas.

Important! Choosing a gas column, you need to make sure that all the listed sensors are installed, otherwise it is very dangerous for a person.

Quality rating

When buying a gas column for a home or for an apartment, it is worth examining the reviews of specialists who, including those who can be in the form of video with models' reviews. You can find such information on specialized forums. According to the rating of reliability and quality in 2017 and 2018, the technique of production of NEVA, Electrolux, Mora, Zanussi, Vaillant, Bosch, Ariston, which can be purchased in Lerua or in any specialized stores is considered.

Conclusion

As can be seen, the variation of prices for flowing water heaters is very high. Usually cheap columns are less powerful, designed for small water consumption. If the family is big and in the apartment more than one water intake, then it is worth choosing a heater for more expensive. It is difficult to talk about the benefits of some brand, since much depends on the assembly. In addition, fakes or defective parties are often found on the market, it applies to well-known manufacturers.

The ignition type is also a matter of individual preference. Automatic is convenient to most consumers, but many believe that it fails faster. And if the power comes from the batteries, and not from the network, then there is a need for periodic replacement. But it is not necessary to connect the device to the network. So the final choice of the gas column will vary depending on the preferences and conditions of use, and the rating according to the brand portal. Buru will help determine and compare the best models for a combination of reliability and quality.

The Russian market of water heating devices is represented by various models from leading manufacturers. However, according to the indicators of economy, the individual source of hot water supply is unambiguously leading - a gas column. Owner reviews emphasize their aesthetic design, ease of operation, small dimensions, long consumer periods and economical fuel consumption. The choice of a gas column is a difficult process that requires the knowledge of the basic characteristics of water heating units. In large supermarkets, a huge range of water heaters, which differ in their properties and functionality is presented. In this review, let's try to figure out how to choose the right gas column.

Before we investigate how to choose a gas column for giving and apartments, consider the distinctive features of the flow water heater. These devices are distinguished by the fact that the water is directly warming up in a copper heat exchanger with a flame burner. The water temperature is maintained by changing the flame intensity.

The main modular elements include:

1. The power supply that coordinates the operation of all nodes and provides a multistage control system.
2. A gas separating device for the safe and optimal operation of the device in a wide range of power.
3. Modular burner.
4. Display to indicate the temperature of the heated fluid.
5. Heat exchanger designed to provide heat transfer from heated gases to running water.
6. Chimney with thrust sensor.

2 pipelines are summed up to the water heater housing: one serves cold water, other, respectively, gas. The lower part of the device is equipped with the main and reliens. When the tap with water is discovered through the valve comes gas. It causes fire from the ignition burner to the main. Water is thus heated by passing by spiral tubewhich is in the heat exchanger. At the same time, emissions of harmful substances disappear through the chimney, and the hot liquid enters the crane. Automation of processes in the column allows you to quickly get heated water.

Basic selection parameters

To consider what to choose a gas burner for the room, you will get acquainted with the main distinguishing features of the heating devices. They differ external species, type of combustion chamber, power, variation of ignition, gas pressure in the system, different taping of combustion products and additional functional characteristics.

Types of chambers of combustion

Gas column may have open and closed combustion chamber. In the first types of equipment, the flame burns with air, which comes from the room. For this purpose is provided for the bottom. Combustion products are removed through a special chimney that is in any apartment.

Columns with closed cameras to support fire use oxygen from the street. Coaxial chimney is mounted with a water heater. As a result, combustion products are displayed using a built-in fan. The devices are characterized by complex design and high cost.

Note! For the columns of the closed type, power supply for fan operation is used. In case of disconnection of electricity, there will be no light and hot water supply.

Power of water heater

The next important parameter to which the user is worth paying attention to when choosing a gas water heater - power. It is from it that the performance of the device is depends. This characteristic shows the amount of water that the device can heat over a certain period of time.

• low - 17-17 kW;
• middle - 22-24 kW;
• high - 28-31 kW.

Depending on the tasks that the device must solve, choose the technical characteristics of the water heating device. Powerful gas column will need to work several water points, Low power models, as a rule, provide hot water washing in the kitchen or shower room.

Attention! When choosing a water heater with a burner, remember that the performance is indicated taking into account water heating to a temperature of 25 degrees. If it is necessary to increase the heating temperature at a small pressure, then the performance will be different than the device stated in the passport.

View of ignition

Depending on the method of incorporating the gas column, there is an electronic, manual ignition and piezorozhig. The times when the wick was lit with the help of matches, passed. Now the burners can now be automatically or using the buttons. Consider each of the options.

1. Rizhag from bataree. It turns on automatically after the crane opens. The source of energy is the batteries. Their resource is enough for 3-4 months.
2. Rizhag from hydro turbines. This type of stobnant is used in expensive models. Energy source - electric generator. This option is suitable for those who have a water pressure of more than 0.35-0.5 bars.
3. Piezorozig. With the help of a special button with a piezoelectric, the wick is lit. Since the location of the button is inconvenient, it is difficult to use Pierozhig.

Gas Column with Razjign from Battery

Device control

The gas water heater should be not only functional, but also convenient for use. It can be adjusted, in addition to the level of gas supply, its pressure. In this case, the column will operate at a reduced water pressure in the crane. Availability liquid crystal display It will give the opportunity to see the main parameters of the device:

• water temperature at the outlet;
• flame modulation;
• error codes for malfunction of the device and other parameters.

Safety of work column

Despite the technological progress, this parameter should be taken into account when buying a gas column. How to choose a gas column safe in operation? Some mandatory requirements apply to the device:

• in the case of interruptions in the supply of gas or water, the unit must automatically turn off;
• if the gas supply resumed, his leaks should not be;
• in the case of weak thrust, the unit automatically turns off.

To make these requirements, manufacturers are equipped with special sensors.

1. Ionization sensor. If the flame goes out, the system itself turns off the gas supply.
2. Sensor combustion. It performs the same functions as the previous device, if the ionization sensor does not respond.
3. Upset safety valve Designed to control water pressure on pipes.
4. Sensor flow. The task of this function is to automatically turn off the machine if the crane is closed and vice versa.
5. Sensor traction. Prevents people from poisoning carnant gas In the absence of traction.
6. Low pressure sensor. Thanks to this protection system, the column will not be turned on if the water pressure is low.
7. Sensor overheating. The main task is to control the temperature of the water: if it boosts, the equipment is turned off. This additional protective function prevents the pipe break.

When buying, consider the presence of all these sensors. If some of the listed devices are not, then the column cannot be called safe.

As can be seen from the table, the choice for the private house is huge. If there is little space for installation, you can choose a compact model. For a cottage house, you can choose less powerful devices. If you are planning to use water in several water points, choose models with l / min over 10.

Analysis of the information showed that the acquisition of an optimal model for the home depends on the individual characteristics of the operation of the unit: the specifics of engineering communications, financial capabilities, family composition, preferences and habits.

Advise what gas column is better to choose? This question is often asked by those who need the supply of hot water, for example, in the country or in a private house, or even in the apartment, but it does not want to fully overpay. What aspects should be paid attention to the acquisition of a gas column? How to choose this device and how does it work at all? We will try to figure out in detail.

You should contact the reviews of experts, look at the rating best models For 2016-2017 and then it is not difficult to choose optimal option The apparatus is for a certain budget and interior.

Experts believe that you need to choose a gas column for several characteristics:

• Power;
• Brand;
• Ignition type;
• The presence of chimney;
• Price.

Expert reviews say it is better to choose an automatic gas column from proven manufacturers. Be sure to pay attention to the material that is separated by the gas column from the inside and outside, as well as the presence of chimney. This factor will indicate whether it is possible to place a column inside the apartment.

To buy an ideal home and budget boiler, you should familiarize yourself with the following characteristics that will help navigate during the choice. The most important factor in the operation of the gas column is the capacity of the equipment. It is this that determines the volume of water that can warm the column for a certain period of time.

Modern gas-heating columns with a modulating burner are divided into types, and there are different power:

• Low-power (up to 20 kilowatt);
• Medium-road (from 21 to 24 kilowatt);
• High-power (25-30 kilowatt).

If you do not plan to warm a large amount of water, then it will be enough one low-power column. Otherwise, pay attention to the medium-freighteous and high-power units to allow water fence from several points at the same time.

Another important criterion during the choice of the water heater is the type of ignition. Now there are few models, which require ignition with matches or lighters. Such heaters are already outdated, it is necessary to pay attention to new and modern columns that have an automatic ignition system. It is produced at the expense of batteries or turbines, directly wick is set up while using hot water. That is, that the system began to work, you just need to start using water, that is, to open a crane. Such a column is safe during operation, as well as much more convenient for old samples.

There is also such a type of ignition as a piezorozhig. It is currently gaining popularity, however, it can be noted that this is not the most convenient way. In this case, the ignition is carried out by pressing the button, but it is not always possible to successfully install so that the button is in a convenient location.

Also the gas column due to this type of ignition consumes more gas.

Type of burner will help choose the best way. For example, if the burner is constant power, then it will require manual adjustment. This is not the best solution, because the pressure is uneven and often changes. It is much better if the device has a modulating power of the burner, then the jet will be pressed independently under the pressure, and the water temperature will always be optimal.

Safety - important factor, now almost all high-quality water heaters have three-stage protection, as well as overheating fuses. Be sure to be blocking if the flame was extinct. You should also know about the presence of chimney. If the column is turbated, then everything that burned down is thrown into the street, but if there is a chimney, then all waste is removed through it.

Instruction: How to choose a gas column for an apartment

Currently, there are a variety of flow columns. All types of Turkish production and Belarusian with automatic modulation, the Chinese manufacturer is very popular due to prices.

Pick up good household water heating brands of instruments will help the rating of specialists and users:

1. Vector JSD-20W - Chinese Water Heating Device, has an electric shock. In Russia, this high-quality water heating machine costs 8000 rubles. There is a temperature sensor, this small compact water was perfect for small apartments with a weak pressure.
2. Termaxi JSD 20-W - the functionality of it is much more modern, has a piezo-ignition, a well-quality display, a copper nozzle. It is also convenient to regulate the temperature of the water. Price 6500 rub.
3. Zanussi GWH 10 fonte - This column uses electronic ignition, display, copper heat exchanger, temperature controller. According to reviews, this is the best value and quality ratio, the price of such an unit is only 5300 rubles.
4. Domestic, but not old Soviet manufacturers, for example, Neva or Spark, also make high-quality heaters using gas. NEVA 4510-M costs 7000 rubles, has a two-stage flame modulation, good security control. It can be noted that this is a good heater at an affordable price.
5. Mora Vega 10 - completes the top of the best gas columns. This is an expensive device, the price of it reaches 18,000 rubles, but also the service life is high. During operation, no Chinese element is used, the assembly is exclusively European. This model has high strength, safety, maximum efficiency with a copper heat exchanger.

It can be noted that in the top there are both the already well-known brands of water heaters and newcomers. Do not be afraid of Chinese manufacturers, now they are not inferior to the "old men" of the market and do really high-quality equipment.

At the same time, they cost enough cheaply, and in quality are almost equal to European companies.

If you choose German, Italian models, as well as from the Russian manufacturer, then they all differ in quality and reliability. Each groaning kalon of Chinese manufacture or Turkish options has different performance and sizes.

Gas column selection

During the choice, pay attention to the above factors, and the column will last long and without interruptions. But you need to choose the gas column for the apartment, based on whether there is a chimney. After all, almost all gas columns are easily installed in the apartment. The chimney goes to the roof of the house, that is, all waste formed during the combustion process is removed through the pipe. In apartments, the chimney installation is impossible, so such columns are not suitable for installation in modern homes. Popular speakers with a turbine remove waste by means of fan pressure. The exhausts fall into the pipe, which is attached to the column and are removed on the street through a special hole in the wall.

The speakers with the turbine are more expensive, depend on electricity.

It is such gas columns that can be installed in apartments. To choose the gas column to provide difficulties, you should first figure out how this device works. So, the water heater (boiler) on the gas is a wall heater, which performs the function of rapid water heating by burning gas. Currently, there is a huge range of a variety of heaters with various functions. They practically do not differ from Soviet models, except that the design has become more modern, and the functional is easier and more convenient.

Design modern model as follows:

• Pipes that provide gas and water supply;
• Burners;
• Heat exchanger.

When a hot water crane opens, the gas valve works. Gas enters the burner, it provides heat generation and heat heating, as well as feeding it through pipes. Air enters through a special hole. When the flow of water stops, the gas is stopped.

Semi-automatic gas column and automatic

Currently, different gas columns are presented on the water heaters market, they differ in their way of heating water. An automatic version works from batteries, in fact, you only need to open the water and the heater will earn itself.

Nuances:

1. On the display, such models can adjust the gas supply, as well as water pressure.
2. If the semiautomatic model, you need to approach the wick every time, the automatic model does not require this, which greatly facilitates operation.
3. The automatic machine does not have a button to go gas to warm up, but the semi-automatic implies it.

In principle, after the ignition of the phytile, the semi-automatic machine does not differ from the machine. Therefore, it is not necessary to be afraid of semi-automatic models, they cost a little cheaper, and in operation practically do not differ from automatic.

Modern gas columns: Benefits

Gas speakers are popular for several years, many of them were used in Soviet times to ensure the house of hot water. They have various advantages as easy to operate.

The devices of the old sample are quite complex in operation, because:

• It is necessary to approach the phytyl every time;
• Tune the temperature;
• Adjust the pressure, in general, the process is long and complex.

Modern models are much more convenient, automatic heaters work immediately after opening the crane with water. Heat the water with the help of the gas column is much more profitable in the budget plan. Gas is consumed only when hot water is required, while the boiler spends extra energy to support hot water.

The gas column works much faster and can provide hot water not one, but many points. It also differs in small sizes, which allows you to place it in any room.

With proper operation, the gas column will last at least 10 years. On average, the models are operated 15-17 years.

Modern columns are provided with reliable overheating control systems. Based on the above factors, the gas column is optimal decision For those who need to give a large number of hot water.

How to choose a gas column for a private house: Overview

Choose a gas column for a private house is quite simple, because you can purchase how models with chimney and without. So, to choose the right gas column for home, based on certain factors.

Namely:

1. There is enough protection against overheating or gas supply without flame. In a private house, it is necessary to especially pay attention to the safety factor.
2. Protection against model overheating, must be a fuse, which turns off the column in the case of a heat exchanger approximation to the boiling point.
3. Pay attention to the presence of a chimney, which will help dispose of waste from water heating. In a private house, you can purchase models involving the chimney on the roof.
4. Be sure to look at the power of the apparatus, as well as on the material from which the heat exchanger is made.

It is necessary to look at the water heater passport to evaluate the safety of the device and its power.

Types of gas columns (video)

In conclusion, it can be noted that the gas column is the optimal version of the water heater for those who have a small room, but there is a need for hot water. Modern speakers are very simple and easy to operate, but at the same time more reliable than old boilers, several decades can be served. The cost of water heaters is available, taking into account the long life of their work, and due to the compact size, even the smallest room will allow you to establish this unit. Isolation makes these models silent, their design, the display for some models, makes the columns are excellent for any interior of the bathroom or kitchen.
