Russian market of gas boilers

The modern market for such equipment is represented by different companies, domestic and foreign, which compete with each other, which gives the consumer the opportunity to choose the best. There is only one caveat - the cost of imported equipment is quite high, not all boilers can operate normally in our conditions, when there are 4-fold pressure fluctuations on the gas main, the absence or frequent power outages.

Although domestic companies offer the best-priced and non-volatile models, they have significant shortcomings, which it is difficult for them to compete with others. The case concerns a significant mass of aggregates and their dimensions, as well as not the most attractive appearance.

Tip: an alternative between our and European models can be devices from the "Country of Morning Freshness" - South Korea.

Virtues and negative

Korean developers of autonomous gas equipment took their work seriously, so for a number of reasons it is quite popular among buyers for today.

You can highlight the main advantages of devices:

  1. Affordable price - Korean boilers are much cheaper than European counterparts.
  2. Reliability of equipment with significant fluctuations in gas pressure in the supply system.

Attractive appearance of the equipment

Like any technological equipment, Korean autonomous heating boilers are not without flaws. For example, the essential disadvantage of equipment is the complexity of service and repair.

So far, we have few certified centers of Korean companies, so there are difficulties in servicing boilers. In addition, when it is necessary to replace components, a lot of time is spent searching for an analog.

Correct installation is a guarantee of quality.

Since the cost of Korean-made boilers is low, sometimes it is possible to hear that buyers make great demands on their quality. In this case, it is absolutely nothing to do with it, since according to statistics, more than half of all faults were caused by violation of the manufacturer's recommendations during installation and commissioning.

Tip: when choosing heating equipment, it is necessary to take into account not only its appearance, but also the proximity of service.

For example, even the most inexpensive model of the boiler will function an order of magnitude longer than the elite one, during the installation of which mistakes were made. Therefore, we recommend that when choosing a boiler, to focus not only on its cost, albeit one of the main parameters, but also on the possibility of quick maintenance of the device.

Equipment installation must be carried out strictly according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

The instruction recommends ordering such a service only from official organizations. In the meantime, it is more common to involve in the process of artisanal craftsmen. We need to get away from this, as the boilers of heating are quite serious equipment, the incorrect operation of which can lead to bad consequences.
