Instructions for using the gas column. The water unit of the gas column device, the differences between the devices and their design. How to light a column with electric ignition

Install instantaneous water heaters began in times of lack of hot water. Old-style models are still found in some "Stalinka" and "Khrushchev". However, residents of modern houses do not refuse to install heating equipment, which is associated with seasonal shutdowns.

It should only be taken into account that the models of the old and new samples differ somewhat in the type of control. How to use a gas column correctly? If you have any difficulties with this, then our article will help to solve them.

The principle of operation of technology

It is easier to remember the rules for using the device when you understand its device. Regardless of the manufacturer, all geysers - "Neva", "" and others - have the same design. Only the location of the nodes can change.

Main knots:

Heat exchanger;
Collector for removal of gases;
Ignition block;
Burner;
Water and gas fittings.

Facing the column is made in the form of a metal casing - in some models it has a viewing window. On the panel there are regulators of power and temperature. Electronic control is complemented by a display.

Ignition block. Depending on the type of ignition, the product has a piezo ignition button or an electronic battery activation button.

semi-automatic models. Piezo ignition can be started in different ways. In some cases, you need to hold the button and press the power regulator. The wick will burn until you turn off the device yourself. It is recommended to turn off the burner after use or when leaving the house. So you can save gas and extend the life of the device.
Automatic equipment is more expensive, but it is economical in operation. The wick does not burn constantly. The burner ignites only when the mixer is opened and goes out when it is closed. The electric charge is sent by batteries or a turbine. Batteries need to be changed periodically, and for the normal operation of the turbine, it is necessary to ensure stable pressure in the line.

Electronic devices can be equipped with a flame controller. With a reduced pressure, the modulator allows you to adjust the heating power so as to obtain the desired water heating temperature.

Outlet manifold. Situated at the top. Pipes are connected to the branch pipe for the removal of combustion products to the street. In devices with a closed combustion chamber, the collector is located below and is equipped with a fan for forced removal of burning. These are turbocharged models such as Neva Turbo, Neva Lux 8224, Bosch WTD.

Columns of the trademark "Astra" and "" are produced only with an open combustion chamber.

Heat exchanger (radiator) is the main part in the water heater. Water flows through its tubes, which is heated by a burner. A high-quality radiator is made of pure copper. If impurities are added to the alloy, then the knot quickly burns out and leaks. Read the article « » to learn more about his device.

Burner located under the radiator. A reliable body must be made of steel. The part distributes the flame through the nozzles for uniform heating of the heat exchanger.

gas node may be on top of the water (in older models) or to the right of it. Operation is controlled by turning the gas on and off.

water block located nearby, thanks to it fuel enters the system. When water is started, pressure is created in the system, which causes the rubber membrane to bend. She pushes the stem, which turns the fuel valve.

An ignition device is located near the burner. Also, the equipment is equipped with protection sensors:

The draft sensor monitors the presence of draft in the system;
Ionization sensor - control of the presence of a flame;
Thermostat - temperature measurement, protection against overheating over 90 degrees.

When one of the sensors is triggered, the device turns off.

Operation features

There are a number of regulations and rules according to which the use of gas equipment is allowed. Consider the basic requirements for open type columns:

It is impossible to start work in the absence of draft in the chimney or in the presence of reverse draft;
It is not allowed to turn on and carry out ignition without studying the operating instructions;
For normal operation, natural ventilation is necessary (window, window);
It is forbidden to change the design of the equipment by yourself.

Columns with an open combustion chamber are most at risk of gas leakage. If you smell, then:

Close the valve;
Open windows and ventilate the room;
Do not start a fire until the room is completely ventilated;
Contact the repair service.

Before starting the appliance, check for draft in the chimney.

How to properly check

There are two "popular" ways to check:

Take a piece of paper and bring it to the chimney or ventilation. If the sheet is tightening, then the mine is working properly. If it falls, then you need to clean the hole.
Light a match and bring it to the viewing window. Does the flame deflect to the side? Then you can start the column. If it burns steadily, check the chimney.

It also happens that everything is in order with the mine, but there is no traction. Perhaps the room is not ventilated, so there is no air flow for combustion.

How to turn on the water heater

Before turning on any equipment, there must be water in the heat exchanger. Therefore, the water valve must be opened first.

Electrical Models:

Insert the batteries into the battery compartment;
In some cases, you need to turn the power or temperature toggle switch;
Open the gas valve;
Turn on the mixer at the hot position, which will cause ignition.

With a long break in the operation of the device, an air lock forms inside, due to which the burner does not ignite the first time. Way out: open and close the mixer several times until ignition occurs.

Semi-automatic devices:

Start the fuel supply;
Set the power and hold the piezo ignition button until the wick ignites;
When the water is turned on, the burner will light up.

Launching modern technology is easy. But what about the old product?

Column ignition obsolete type

A device with manual ignition is considered obsolete. The design provides for constant burning of the wick and manual shutdown. Ignition occurs from a burning match, less often with the help of a piezo ignition. These include: "Iskra KGI-56", series L, GVA, VPG. They are equipped with a turn signal or a lever to regulate the temperature.

The principle of operation is the same as that of modern models. The only difference is in the features of turning on the heating. If you are launching for the first time, then you should know that:

The room with the column must have a constant supply of air. This is essential to keep the flame burning. Therefore, a gap of 5 cm is provided in the kitchen doors from below. If plastic windows are installed, a ventilation valve is required;
Traction should be checked regularly;
Check the condition of the gas valve. Open it and anoint the joints with soapy water. If bubbles appear, then there is a leak.

For ignition, it is more convenient to use long matches that reach the igniter well.

Launch of KGI-56

Turn the fuel and water valves. Now turn the left knob all the way to the left. Hold the button of the solenoid valve, if provided in the product. Continuing to press the button, ignite the igniter with a match. Thereafter:

Open the hot water faucet;
Turn the other knob to the left to ignite the burner.

Done, you can go take a shower.

The use of flow geysers has certain features.

Therefore, for the trouble-free service of such a device, it is worth following the rules for its use. Safety also depends on this.

Basic Rules

First of all, you need to remember that any devices that use gas have an increased level of danger.

The same applies to operation. Therefore, they are subject to the same handling rules as other household gas appliances.

So, if you suddenly smell gas:

You must immediately turn off the gas supply.
In order to quickly reduce the concentration of gas, it is necessary to open the windows and ventilate the room.
Until the house / apartment is completely ventilated, you can not use any electrical appliances or light a fire.
After that, you need to call the gas service.

It's important to know: only certified specialists can carry out installation, as well as connection, in accordance with the design documentation approved by the gas industry.

Most often, the user manual comes with the device itself. So, if you have an open-type geyser installed, then:

Do not start a fire in the burner and use it in the event of a reverse draft in the chimney or no such at all.
Without having previously studied the instructions, it is forbidden to turn on the device or set fire to the gas using the “scientific poke” method.
In the room where such a unit was installed, there must be a constant flow of air.
It is strictly forbidden to make any changes to the design of the gas column.
To prevent burns, avoid touching the parts of the front panel located next to the viewing slot, as well as the elements of the chimney.

Note: it is better to turn on an open-type geyser at a low heating power and at the same time do not use mixers to produce hot water. The reason is that in the case of a strong heating of the heat exchanger, an intensive process of salt deposition occurs.

Traction test

In this case, we are talking about options for gas water heaters with an open combustion chamber.

It is also worth noting that modern versions of atmospheric speakers often already have automatic security systems (most Astra, Bosh and Vaillant models). They do not allow the launch of the column in the absence of traction, and also turn it off if it disappears during operation.

However, relying on the fact that automation will give you a 100% security guarantee is also not worth it. Therefore, it is necessary to be able to carry out a traction test yourself. For this, professionals use special measuring devices that evaluate the presence and strength of air movement (traction).

But an ordinary person is unlikely to find such devices at home. Therefore, the usual "grandfather" methods are used:

The first method involves removing the front of the device and, taking a small strip of paper, bring it to the chimney. If there is traction, then the paper will be pulled inward a little.
The second option is simpler and does not require any manipulations with the device itself. It will be enough to light a match, and then bring it directly to the viewing window, which is located on the front panel. In the event that the flame is drawn into it, this will mean the presence of thrust.

Good to know: fairly common situations when the chimney is working properly, but there is no draft. This may be due to the fact that there is no air flow into the room, which is why there is no draft (air movement). To check this, you can close the windows and doors during normal operation of the chimney and check the draft.

How to turn it on

First of all, it should be noted that device options that have a closed chamber or an automatic ignition system are very easy to start.

The situation is different with models that have an open camera. The reason is that in order to properly ignite the column, you must first turn on the igniter.

To do this, open the gas valve and press the manual piezo ignition button, after which the wick is ignited. Then, using the regulator, the required temperature level is set.

Note: when starting any model, there must be water in the heat exchanger. Therefore, you must not forget to turn on the water before starting the column.

In the case of a device with an automatic ignition system, the steps should be as follows:

First, you need to insert the batteries into the compartment.
Then open the gas cock.
Now the hot tap opens, due to which the burner will ignite itself. In this case, the igniter will act as an intermediary, which is turned on only for the time the gas burner is started.

There are cases when, after the first start-up or a long break in operation, a so-called air lock may form in the gas turbine. It can be eliminated without problems by carrying out the ignition procedure several times in a row.

Using modern gas water heaters is by and large not difficult. The most important thing is to constantly observe all the safety rules indicated here, as well as to prevent excessive heating of the heat exchanger.

Watch a detailed video instruction on how to properly ignite an open-type gas column:

The operation of instantaneous gas water heaters has its own characteristics. In order for the device to serve without fail in your home for as long as possible, during use, you must adhere to certain rules. Your safety also depends on this. The purpose of this material is to suggest how to properly use a gas water heater, depending on its type.

Terms of use

Any gas-using installation is a priori considered a source of increased danger, and flowing gas heaters are no exception. For this reason, they are subject to all rules for handling domestic gas equipment. So, if there is a smell of gas in the room, then:

immediately turn off the tap installed in front of the equipment;
open windows for ventilation;
do not use electrical appliances, do not turn on (or turn off) the light, do not smoke;
call the gas service.

Usually, the rules for using a gas column are set out in the operating instructions that are attached to it. We will cite them again, since compliance with these rules is the key to the safety of all people living in a house or apartment. This is especially true for those homeowners in whose homes chimney-type water heaters are installed:

only a specialized organization that has the appropriate permissions has the right to install and connect the device. The project documentation approved by the fuel supplier is considered the basis for the performance of work;
it is forbidden to start the heater when there is no draft in the chimney;
do not turn on or adjust the column without reading the operating instructions;
in the room where the unit is located, it is necessary to ensure the flow of fresh air;
changes to the design are not allowed;
during operation of the heater, avoid touching the front panel near the viewing slot and open parts of the chimney.

Now about how to extend the life of your water heater. The heat exchanger is one of the most expensive elements of the installation, on the surface of which scale forms when the hot surface comes into contact with running water. Based on this, using the column correctly means protecting the heat exchanger from scale by all available means.

You should not set the maximum heating temperature, in most devices it is 70 ºС, and the minimum is 30 ºС. For example, the instruction for the Russian-made NEVALUX unit states that the optimal operating temperature is 45-50 ºС. In this case, it is recommended to limit the flow through the column using a special control valve. The goal is simple: to reduce sudden pressure drops in the device when opening taps of various consumers.

It is risky to constantly use a geyser with water whose hardness is above average. The magnesium and calcium salts contained in such water will very quickly create scale in the heat exchanger. This will lead to at least a deterioration in its operation, and even to the failure of the element. Of course, it is easy to give advice to purify water, but the process of desalination is a very expensive pleasure. You will need to purchase the appropriate equipment and constantly purchase consumable reagents for it.

It is best to turn on the device at the minimum heating temperature and do not use mixers to get warm water from the tap. The bottom line is to prevent a strong heating of the heat exchanger, when salts are deposited very intensively.

How to check gas column draft

Since a chimney and good draft are needed for units with an open combustion chamber, we will talk about them. Turbocharged water heaters push out the products of combustion forcibly and do not need a classic chimney. I must say that all modern atmospheric columns are equipped with safety automatics that do not allow the device to be started in the absence of traction or turn off the gas supply when it disappears during operation.

In general, to check the draft, you need a special measuring device, which is used by professional stove-makers. They allow not only to determine the presence of air movement in the pipe, but also to calculate the traction force. It is clear that the average layman does not have any devices, the arsenal of verification is limited in two ways:

having removed the horizontal section of the chimney from the entrance to the mine, stick strips of paper to the wall above the opening. If the shaft works well, then the strips will be pulled inward;
to check the draft of the gas column without any disassembly, you need to light a match or stick and holding it in a vertical position, bring it to the viewing window on the front panel. The flame should noticeably deviate towards the gap;

Important. Very often the chimney is in perfect order, but there is no draft due to the fact that the supply air is blocked from entering the room. This can be easily verified by opening a window during the test. A positive result will indicate to you that the room needs to be ventilated.

How to turn on the column

We will immediately make a reservation that it is not difficult to turn on a gas water heater with a closed chamber and automatic ignition. But there is a rule that is important for heaters of all types at the first start: the heat exchanger must be filled with water. Therefore, you need to open the water tap before and after the device, and then drain the water a little in the kitchen or elsewhere. After that, the gas valve opens and the turbocharged unit is connected to the power grid. Then she will do everything herself, you just need to adjust the temperature.

Another thing is a heater with an open chamber. In this case, in order to ignite the column, you must first turn on the igniter. To do this, open the gas supply valve and press the manual piezo ignition button, the wick is ignited by a spark. Further, the desired water temperature is set with the regulators or buttons, while the igniter remains lit. As soon as a hot water tap opens somewhere, the main burner will start from it.

If the automatic ignition system from batteries is enabled in the device, then the start-up algorithm is as follows:

insert the batteries into the compartment;
open the gas cock;
open the water valves;
unscrew the nearest hot water tap a few turns and thereby ignite the main burner. The intermediary is the igniter, which is switched on only during the start-up of the burner.

At the first start-up or after a long break, an air lock forms in the gas pipe at the inlet to the device. You can remove it by repeating the ignition operation several times.

Conclusion

Using a modern geyser, especially a turbocharged one, is not difficult at all. The main thing is to follow the safety rules and treat the device with care, avoiding overheating of the heat exchanger.

Gas consuming equipment is potentially dangerous. To avoid emergency situations, it is important to learn how to use gas water heating equipment. To properly turn on the gas column, you need to follow certain rules developed by the manufacturer and described in detail in the instruction manual.

When to include a column

It all depends on what type of gas water heater is installed. The instructions for use state:

Columns with a constantly burning wick- ignition is carried out at the beginning of the day. Most consumers light the fuse in the morning and leave it to work throughout the day. After ignition, the column is completely ready for operation. The first switching on occurs with the opening of the hot water tap.
Columns operating in automatic mode (without a wick)- turn on independently, after opening the DHW tap. Classic models refuse to work if there is no pressure in the pipeline. In modern water heaters, switching on occurs at a low water pressure (0.3 atm).

Flowing gas water heaters, regardless of type, have a common drawback: time passes from the moment the DHW tap is opened to the supply of hot water to the user. It takes several minutes to reach the set temperature.

If the column turns on poorly, the burner and wick go out during operation, and there is a smell of gas in the area of the piezoelectric element, this indicates a serious breakdown. You should turn off the water heater, turn off the gas and call the wizard to fix the problem.

Rules for turning on gas water heaters

When using the column, it is important to take precautions. Ignition of the wick or main burner is carried out in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Modern speakers have several levels of protection and work mostly in automatic mode, without requiring special precautions. Ignition and switching on occurs when a hot water tap is opened.
Problems and difficulties arise when using old speakers that need to be set on fire with matches or models with a built-in piezoelectric element.

How to turn on an old column with matches

There are two main types of water heaters that differ in the ignition device. All models, without exception, are equipped with an ignition wick that burns constantly. The first inhabitants of "Stalinka" and "Khrushchev" had to use a column with levers. Later, water heaters with a built-in piezoelectric igniter appeared.

Use the old-style geyser with caution. Failure to follow the rules described in the operating instructions can cause an explosion, gas leakage and equipment failure. When turning on a flow-type gas water heater, the following rules are observed:

It is not so difficult to light an old gas column. Switching off is carried out in the reverse order. First, the main burner is turned off, after which the water is shut off.

For convenience, when lighting an old gas column, it is better to use long fireplace matches.

How to light a column with a piezoelectric element

The classic speakers with lever control have been replaced by models with mechanical switches in the form of handles. The case provided for the piezo ignition of the wick, which allows you to light a gas column without matches. The firing order is as follows:

The solenoid valve is clamped - usually it takes 15-20 seconds for enough gas to accumulate on the wick to ignite.
It will take 2-3 times to press the piezoelectric element. With a properly set and working module, it is enough to “click” the piezoelectric element once to light the wick.

Further steps are the same as in the case of a column ignited by matches. In the event of a malfunction of the piezoelectric element, ignition is carried out from matches.

How to light a column with electric ignition

Those who have used automatic gas flow and storage water heaters know that the user does not need to carry out complex manipulations, as is the case with older models. In modern gas water heating equipment, automatic equipment is installed that gives a signal to turn on when a hot water tap is opened.

The spark appears due to the operation of automatic ignition, powered by batteries or the mains. Provided that the water heater is working, a few seconds are enough for the burner to start and hot water to be supplied to the consumer.

Why does the column turn on by itself

In each water heater, regardless of the year of manufacture, there is an automation designed to prevent the device from self-igniting. For this reason, situations when the geyser itself turns on without water are excluded. The “frog” water regulator is responsible for this.

If spontaneous switching on of the geyser without water is observed, the problem may be that somewhere in the hot water pipeline, possibly passing through the wall, a leak has occurred. After the leak is fixed, the problem will disappear.

Much more often, users are faced not with the fact that the column turns on by itself without water, but with the fact that after the tap is turned off, it continues to work. The reason lies in the diaphragm, hardened from hard water, located inside the water regulator. After turning off the hot water, the membrane is in no hurry to return to its place, continuing to press on the stem that opens the gas supply. You can fix the problem by replacing the diaphragm.

Is it possible to turn on cold water when the column is running

This is strongly discouraged for several reasons:

At the same time, manufacturers prohibit turning on cold and hot water, which is directly stated in the operating instructions. It is necessary to initially set a comfortable temperature, allowing you to do without mixing. Opening the cold water tap affects the heating and causes a quick failure of the water heater.
The main reason why cold water should not be turned on when the gas water heater is running is that this violation of operation leads to a rapid build-up of scale in the heat exchanger.

For ease of use, modern automatic gas flow columns have a winter-summer mode. The function helps to quickly change the heating temperature and reduce gas consumption.

Do I need to turn off the column at night

It all depends on what kind of water heater is used. In columns with a constantly burning wick, such a measure is desirable. As a result of switching off at night, gas consumption is significantly saved.

CO leaks are not associated with the operation of the water heater, but with improper installation and violation of operating rules. You don't have to worry about accidents happening at night. The technique is safe.

The operating conditions of a gas instantaneous water heater with automatic ignition do not mention the need to turn it off at night. As a rule, the equipment has several degrees of protection against accidental ignition of the burner.

It is worth turning off the water heater only if there are obvious signs indicating a breakdown: the burner refuses to turn off when the DHW tap is closed, malfunctions that manifest themselves in a long turn on, and independent shutdown during water heating. In these cases, turn off the gas and call the emergency service.

Gas equipment is a convenient and economical attribute of a modern home. But it is also an object of increased danger, which requires increased attention and compliance with operating standards.

Those who have gas water heaters should first of all know how to turn on the gas column and what rules must be observed when using it.

The device and principle of operation of the water heater

Being an object of increased danger, gas water heaters are installed by specially trained personnel. They also connect and check the operability of the equipment. But in order to understand how to use a gas column, it is necessary to have at least a general idea of \u200b\u200bthe device and the principle of operation of such units. After all, here the responsibility lies directly with the user.

Despite the many models and the differences in their design features, the principle of the device will be almost the same for all. So, every column contains:

gas node;
Water node;
Hood;
Heat exchanger-radiator;
burner;
Automatic control of work.

For different manufacturers and different brands, each node may have its own characteristic differences and technical characteristics, but the very principle of operation of the unit itself will be the same. And he looks like this:

When supplied, water fills the system;
The pressure formed by it stretches the membrane, which opens the gas supply;
The burner is ignited, which warms up the water circulating throughout the radiator system with an open flame;
Residual products of gas combustion are removed through the hood.

Such a simple device and principle of operation allow you to effectively heat the water and maintain its constant, set temperature.

Modern models have in their design a number of automatic systems that help make the use of the unit the safest. These are different levels of protection that allow you to control and, if necessary, interrupt the operation of the device. The pressure of gas, water, the quality of the hood, the presence of a flame - all these parameters are fixed by the automatic water heater and, if necessary, are able to respond to any deviation from the working norm.

Terms of use

In operation, gas equipment is unpretentious and capable of performing its functions for a long time without maintenance. But in order for everything to work smoothly and safely, you need to know how to properly use the gas water heater and what precautions should be taken.

The rules of use are very simple, but extremely necessary to comply with safety standards:

Near the place of installation of the gas unit, the presence of ventilation is mandatory, where the combustion residues exit. And also free access of air should be provided.
Before igniting the gas column, it is imperative to make sure that there is draft.
The equipment is strictly forbidden to be used in the absence of traction.
It is forbidden to leave a lit gas burner unattended.
It is not allowed to leave the gas supply open when the column is not working.
If the gas supply suddenly stops, it is necessary to immediately close the supply valve.
And it is strictly forbidden to arbitrarily carry out repair work or installation of gas equipment.

Installing a gas stove

Traction test

Due to the fact that gas water heaters have an open combustion chamber, special attention is paid to draft in order to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning or not create a dangerous emergency. To do this, it is important to correctly install the chimney and regularly check the presence and quality of draft.

Modern models of gas water heaters are equipped with sensors that, in the absence or low thrust indicators, simply will not allow the equipment to start. But to turn on the old gas water heater, you will have to make sure that there is traction, since such sensors have not yet been provided for in it.

To correctly measure the presence of air flow, it is necessary to use special devices. But can be done without special tools:

1. At the point where the hood enters the ventilation shaft, it is necessary to remove the section of the exhaust pipe. The paper cut into strips is fixed at the hole. And according to their movement, the quality of traction is checked.
2. A lit match is placed in the viewing window of the column. If the flame deflects, then this indicates the presence of air flow.

If the gas equipment is already working, but there is no draft, it is recommended to open the window for air flow.

Gas column setting.

Ways to start gas water heaters

Depending on the design features, you can start the gas column in different ways. But it is mandatory for any type and brand of equipment to first turn on water and gas supply. Further actions can be divided into manual, piezo and automatic ignition. For units of different designs, different types of start-up are also used.

Manual start. Old models of gas water heaters are started only in manual mode, since such structures do not contain any automation, and if they do, then for minimal protection. The very principle of ignition is to ignite the wick with any source of open fire: matches or kitchen lighters.

Manual ignition technology implies the discovery of water and gas, after which the control knob is set to the ignition position and after ignition of the wick it opens to operating modes. Depending on the pressure of the water, its temperature may also change. However, if the water is completely turned off, then the old units do not extinguish the flame, so they must also be turned off manually.

Although the whole procedure does not look complicated, it is not completely safe. With a deterioration in traction, especially in wet weather, flames may slam into the room, which already looks menacing. Therefore, if there are children or elderly people in the family, then it is not recommended to use such systems.

Piezo ignition system

Gas equipment with piezo ignition looks a little better. Such units are easier to manage and maintain. Here, in order to ignite the column, it is necessary to put the gas supply regulator in the ignition position and ignite the wick with a special button. When a spark appears, it ignites.

Gas water heaters with piezo ignition can not be turned off completely, and when the water is turned off, only the wick will burn. But this also leads to increased gas consumption. Therefore, it is worth turning off the equipment completely.

Auto power on

Among the huge selection of water heating equipment, fully automatic models of columns (Beretta, Ariston, Bosch and others) are in special demand, which are able not only to maintain and regulate the work process, but also ignite the wick and fuse completely independently.

But the inclusion of water heating equipment, depending on the manufacturer and model, may differ to varying degrees.:

Bosch units. Equipment from the German company Bosch is characterized by intuitive operation. Models equipped with electric ignition are identified by the letter "B". In order to turn on the Bosch geyser, it is necessary to open the gas valve and supply water. You should also check the batteries for 1.5 volts and type "R". On the front panel of the unit there is a button, thanks to which you can light the Bosch geyser.
Neva. Apparatuses from the domestic company "Neva" are produced already fully tuned to a certain gas pressure and type of fuel. And if in order to light the Bosch column, you just need to press a button, then here the situation is different. To begin with, you will have to install LR20 batteries in a special compartment. Further, all available toggle switches are turned on at a minimum. And also opens the water and gas valve. The control knob on the front panel is moved to the ignition position, after which it is sunk to the maximum. And after that, the start button is turned on.
Models from Astra. The equipment from this company is not very convenient, because before using the column, you will have to move the special handle to the left, press and hold the start button for 5 seconds, and light the igniter. But the main inconvenience is that here the burner is located under the central fitting.
Systems from Junkers. The launch of systems from this company may differ depending on the marking. So, if the column is equipped with piezo ignition, it will be denoted by the letter "P". Automatic models are ignited by batteries and are marked "B". If “G” is found in the model, then such heaters have a fully automatic Hydro Power system, that is, a built-in hydrodynamic generator.

Gas water heaters are an excellent alternative if the house does not have a central hot water supply. Modern models are quite safe and reliable in operation.

The instructions supplied with such equipment may not always answer your questions. Therefore, when purchasing a column, it is preferable to ask the seller about everything, as well as to consult what and in what cases the equipment will be most effective and useful.
