The dynamic development of construction technologies allows many of our citizens to acquire their own home outside the city. Owning a small cottage or cottage is becoming the norm. Living away from the noisy metropolis, enjoying clean air and peace - that's what attracts people.
In a country house, cottage or cottage, as a rule, there is no central heating and hot water. This makes impossible a permanent comfortable stay in such a house in the winter. Without proper heating in cold weather, the solution would be an autonomous heating system.
Independent heating system
Autonomous heating is independent of heating systems. And this is perhaps the main advantage. You can adjust the temperature in the room yourself, and if necessary, turn off the heating altogether. On average, over 5 years, equipment for autonomous heating is fully paid off.
Comfort, efficiency and reliability of home heating depend on the choice of the boiler. If your house is located in a gasified area, it makes sense to purchase a gas boiler.
Types of boilers
A flowing gas heater is called upon to provide hot water in the house. It was installed earlier in an apartment building. Now the models are improved and equipped with a gas control and ignition system.
A single-circuit gas boiler is used to heat a small area. It is simple, powerful, but its operation has its own characteristics:
- the need to connect to the chimney;
- use of indoor air for burning (open combustion chamber);
- the need for additional ventilation of the room.
A boiler with an open combustion chamber requires increased care and strict adherence to fire and sanitary requirements. Among single-circuit ones there are boilers with a closed combustion chamber, but they cost more.
A double-circuit gas boiler is capable of not only heating the room, but also heating the water. One circuit works for water heating, and the second - for heating.
Wall mounted gas boilers "Baksi"
The construction and design of Italian gas boilers meet the needs of modern heating. Gas boiler "Baksi Luna" can be placed on any free spot on the wall. He does not need a special room for accommodation - everything that he needs for work is already provided for by the internal structure.
All Baksi wall-mounted gas boilers pass mandatory certification for compliance with operational safety requirements. Customer reviews most often confirm the simplicity of controlling the boiler and its safety.
Units are equipped with a special control system, which is able to conduct diagnostics of the system itself and take into account weather conditions. If there is a drop in gas pressure at the main inlet, this will not affect the operation of the gas boiler.
Assortment of wall mounted gas boilers "Baksi"
- Gas single-circuit boiler - only for heating the house.
- Domestic wall-mounted gas boiler with two circuits; purpose - heating and hot water supply.
- Turbocharged boiler with two circuits. Special equipment increases the speed of internal processes - for heating and hot water supply.
- Gas wall condensing boiler, uses the released steam energy until it passes into the water.
Wall-mounted boilers with one circuit
Single-circuit gas heating boilers are designed for heating a house. Wall-mounted "Baksi" decided to make more functional and installed special bends for installing an additional boiler. It is possible to heat water for household needs.
Single-circuit boilers are arranged quite simply. A burner that ignites the gas is placed inside a safe thermal envelope. The heat that accumulates in the combustion chamber is transferred through the heat exchanger to the heating circuit.
The material for the manufacture of the heat exchanger is copper, cast iron or steel. This type of boiler is designed for low power - from 14 to 31 kW. Wall-mounted Baxi are small in size, are made with a camera of closed or open type.
Double-circuit wall gas boilers
The design of the boiler provides for a heat exchanger that is connected to the heating system. Water heating occurs once in a closed cycle. Further, the heat exchanger only needs to maintain the required temperature.
The heat exchanger, which is connected to the water heating system, is secondary, and a new portion of cold water periodically enters it, so it is forced to work constantly for heating.
Types of heat exchangers on boilers "Baksi":
- Lamellar. Copper plates are soldered to a long curved steel tube . To protect the structure from high temperature, a special protective layer was applied to it.
- Biometric Inside the pipe, another pipe of a smaller diameter is inserted. Water flows to the outside for heating, and water for domestic needs moves along the inside.
Gas boiler Baxi Luna 3 Comfort
Perhaps the most popular and perfect is the Baksi double-circuit gas wall-mounted boiler. Reviews, in any case, are just that. The model is considered successful and reliable. There are several reasons for this:
- Installed weather-dependent automatic system.
- Temperature conditions for heating radiators (30–85 ° C) and separately for a water heated floor (30–45 ° C).
- Self-diagnosis with the memory of the latest problems and malfunctions.
- The liquid crystal display reflects all the necessary operating parameters.
- An anti-corrosion coating is applied to the heat exchanger.
Wall-mounted double-circuit turbocharged boilers
The use of such boilers provides significant savings in blue fuel. Turbocharging is integrated in the system, and this allows you to get the required amount of heat with lower gas consumption. An additional fan is installed in the boiler, which pumps air from the street.
Cold air enters through a pipe built into another, larger diameter, which works to remove combustion products. The design is completely airtight and eliminates the ingress of harmful toxins and fumes into the room.
Condensing wall-mounted boilers
The principle of their work is based on the laws of physics. Typically, gas is burned in the boiler chamber, and the products of combustion are discharged to the outside. Condensation has a slightly different course of action.
When carbon is burned, its dioxide and water vapor are formed. The installed heat exchanger cools the steam, and uses the released energy to heat the circuits. Its efficiency significantly exceeds the performance of simple gas boilers.
Advantages of wall-mounted boilers according to customer reviews
- Baxi boilers with two circuits, for all their small size, are able to cope with space heating and water heating in uninterrupted mode.

Condensing gas boilers "Baksi"
The principle of operation is the same as that of wall-mounted boilers. The heat exchanger is undergoing a process of reverse transformation of the dispersed part into a liquid. During the transition, additional energy is released, which at times increases the energy intensity of the boiler.
Single circuit atmospheric floor boilers
The Baksi gas boiler has a separate source for igniting the burner. Units are used in various conditions. To increase the safety of using the unit, we made an atmospheric gas boiler "Baksi". The instruction prescribes to install it in a place where it is possible to connect a chimney, gas pipe, heating and water supply systems.
In atmospheric boilers, a thermocouple controls the uninterrupted operation of the product. The boiler’s dependence on energy is excluded, and if the burner flame goes out, the inlet valve closes. Such a device was able to increase the safety of operation of a gas boiler.
Atmospheric floor boilers with two circuits
Gas floor boilers "Baksi", having two independent circuits, will heat the house and prepare hot water. The thermal energy that is generated is spent on maintaining the heat transfer regime already obtained. Periodic intake of cold portions of water makes the boiler constantly work for heating.
