A huge selection of heating boilers is presented on the market, differing in price, means for the furnace and the area of heated rooms. Below is an overview and comparative characteristics of the most popular solid fuel boilers.
Lemax Forward-16 17 kW
This boiler model is used for heating residential premises, cottages, as well as office buildings in which water heating with forced or natural circulation.
The heat exchanger in the Lemax Forward-16 boiler is made of high-quality steel, the thickness of which is 4 mm, and the heat-resistant grate is made of high-quality gray cast iron. Thanks to this, a long service life of the device and the ability to withstand temperature changes are achieved.
Corrosion protection is carried out using heat-resistant coating of the heat exchanger and treatment of internal voids with an inhibitory composition.
Maximum power - 17 kW
Heated area - 170 m2
Type of fuel - firewood, coal, coke
Management - mechanical
- economical fuel consumption;
- environmental friendliness;
- low noise level;
- loading firewood in a vertical way;
- ease of use.
- non-standard diameter of the chimney (140 mm).
Teplodar Kupper Practitioner 8
For garages or country houses, this model is well suited, as it is designed for heating small (up to 80 m2) rooms.
The versatility of the boiler allows it to be installed not only in closed, but also in open heating systems, where forced circulation is present.
A feature of this boiler model is the ability to connect external control, as well as the presence of a thermometer to control the level of water heating. In addition, the firebox in the boiler is quite deep and tilted, which allows the use of long firewood in the heating process.
The only difference between the Kupper Praktik-8 model and other modifications of this line is the inability to replace the built-in 6 kW heater with a more powerful one.
Characteristics:
- Power - 8 kW;
- premises area - 40-80 m2;
- Fuel - coal, peat briquettes, firewood;
- Management - mechanical
- affordable price;
- compactness;
- ease in management.
- not suitable for two-story houses;
- the possibility of heating the case.
Teplodar Kupper Expert-15
Solid fuel boiler Kupper Expert 15 brand is a long-burning boiler. This model can be used to heat rooms with an area not exceeding 150 square meters. Firewood, coal, briquettes are used as fuel. The integrated 6 kW heater block can maintain the level of heat achieved. The duration of combustion is achieved due to the upper combustion of fuel in the boiler due to the three-zone air supply, as well as a sufficiently developed heat exchanger. Cooper Expert 15 can work in 4 modes: quick warm-up, classic, medium and maximum.
Characteristics:
- power - 15 kW;
- room area - 100-150 m2;
- type of fuel is coal, firewood, electricity.
- compactness;
- light weight;
- low cost;
- made of quality materials;
- roomy firebox for laying firewood;
- it warms up the room well.
- rapid burning of firewood;
- the need to put fuel before bedtime.
ZOTA Poplar-16VK 16 kW
A feature of this model of a solid fuel boiler is the duration of fuel combustion (one load provides a combustion cycle for 10-12 hours), as well as the presence of two sections for laying firewood or coal in vertical and horizontal planes.
The difference between the series “Topol-VK” from the previous “Topol-M” is in the water-filled grate and the change in the design of the heat exchanger.
Characteristics:
- power - 16 kW;
- room area - 160 m2;
- fuel - firewood, coal, briquettes (wood and coal);
- control - there is no control panel.
- fast heating;
- burning time;
- uniform heat transfer;
- ease of management;
- made of quality materials.
- lack of control panel;
- heavy weight;
- high cost
EVAN WARMOS TT-25K 25 kW
The Evan boiler is unpretentious to the type of fuel used - the presence of a grate system can even burn wood waste, in which the humidity reaches 70%. The efficiency is calculated just for the Russian winter, and not for the European one.
The depth of the loading chamber is 55 cm, which allows the use of fairly long firewood. In the presented model, the combustion time of the loaded fuel is increased, provided that the chamber is completely blocked. When using coal as fuel, the maximum burning time will be up to 15 hours, and when using firewood - up to 8 hours.
A feature of the model is the presence of a thermomanometer, which allows you to control temperature and pressure, as well as the presence of a protective shield that protects from flames. The installed draft regulator allows you to control the access of air to the combustion chamber in automatic mode, and the built-in 2 kW heater with a thermostat and thermal limiter allows you to maintain the water temperature reached.
Characteristics:
- power - 25 kW;
- area of the premises is 180 square meters;
- management - mechanical;
- fuel - peat, coal, firewood.
- suitable for any type of fuel;
- convenient combustion chamber with a metal thickness of 4 mm;
- firebox capacity 50 l;
- maximum length of firewood 55 cm;
- fuel burns without residue due to the round shape of the boiler.
- high price;
- a lot of weight.
