If you have a country house and gas communications are connected to it, then it will be quite simple to solve the problem of heating water and heating your home. The main requirement is the correct choice of the boiler, which will occupy one of the main places in the heating system.
Almost all modern boilers are reliable, easy to use and safe. However, many factors must be taken into account when choosing them. A huge number of heating boilers are sold all over the world, but gas boilers account for more than half of them. In order to make a choice towards a certain model, it is necessary to narrow the range of searches. First of all, you should decide whether the gas boiler will be single-circuit or double-circuit, floor or wall-mounted, with or without a chimney, as well as volatile or operating without the use of electricity.
In order to decide, it is necessary to consider several models. They can be from one or more manufacturers. You can make the task easier by considering boilers from one supplier. Among other proposals, one should especially highlight heating equipment, which will be discussed in the article.
Selection Tips
Gas boilers "Buderus" can be wall-mounted or floor-standing. The former are optimal for areas up to 350 m2. Such devices are distinguished by attractive design, compactness and ease of installation. Depending on the model, the exhaust gases can be discharged through a chimney or a small coaxial pipe. The latter option is safer and cheaper, because the combustion products will be removed outside the house using a simple fan. When installing such a unit, there are no additional requirements for the ventilation system.
Wall-mounted gas boilers "Buderus" can have piezo ignition, which is activated by a special button. You can choose a model with automatic electronic ignition. The latter is convenient, because in case of power outages, the boiler turns on itself as soon as the electricity comes through the wires. But with piezo ignition, the owner must turn on the unit.
In large rooms, floor-standing boilers are usually installed. They are distinguished by an impressive mass, so they cannot be hung on the wall. A foundation is often mounted under them. Choosing a floor-standing boiler, you will have to tilt your choice towards devices with a forced or atmospheric burner. The latter is cheaper, simpler and quiet. The first is characterized by a higher efficiency, but also an impressive cost. The atmospheric burner is included, but the pressurized burner will have to be purchased separately.
When considering gas boilers "Buderus", you should pay attention to details that increase the safety of operation, but entail an increase in price. Among these options are:
- thermostat to turn off the boiler;
- flame sensor;
- traction control sensor;
- blocking the boiler.
As for the flame detector, the element is necessary to shut off the fuel supply if the flame goes out. When you turn off the gas, you need a blocker, so it is better to purchase a model with this function. Pay attention also to the thermostat, it is designed to turn off the unit when the water temperature rises to the emergency level.

The device and principle of operation of the solid fuel boiler Buderus
The technical characteristics of Buderus solid fuel water heating units are significantly higher than those of analogues produced by other manufacturers. High heat efficiency rates are directly dependent on the design features of the equipment.
Consider what is the functionality of Buderus solid fuel boilers:
- The manufacturer from Germany has designed a system that greatly simplifies the installation work. There are several different outlets in the casing of the units, which are required for connection to the heating system and to the indirect heating boiler.
You can read more about the indirect heating boiler here - The principle of functioning of household solid fuel boilers of long burning Buderus is that in the process of heating they use the gas generation mode. The specificity of such work lies in the ability of any type of solid fuel to emit gas. Under certain conditions (when the supply of oxygen is limited and the temperature regime exceeds 200 ° C). CO is burned in a separate chamber to provide additional heat.
- Steel pyrolysis boilers for solid fuels are constructed from two combustion chambers. In one - the process of fuel combustion is carried out, in the other, the gases produced in the process are afterburned.
Manufacturers and features of pyrolysis boilers are described in this article. - Buderus boilers are absolutely universal, they can operate on: coal, wood, pellets, woodworking waste. In other words, they are absolutely unpretentious to the type of fuel.
- Buderus units are safe in operation. The coal-wood pyrolysis boiler is equipped with multilevel protection against overheating of the coolant. Automation is responsible for regulating the combustion process. Also, the design provides a safety valve that protects the device from overheating. Auxiliary safety can be achieved through a safety group that is mounted on the hot water supply.
- The Buderus solid fuel boiler made of steel and cast iron is used to connect to heating systems with natural and forced circulation of the coolant. The performance of household models is quite enough to supply heat to rooms with an area of up to 500 m². Water heating using boilers of this brand is suitable for industrial premises, shopping centers, warehouses.
- The set of units includes steel or cast iron heat exchangers, each type has its own pros and cons. Cast iron models have high thermal performance and a long service life. Models made of steel - weigh less and their cost is lower.
TT boiler Buderus is designed for heating with permanent residence. At subzero temperatures, the water coolant freezes, which is fraught with rupture of the circuit and failure of the water heating equipment.
