Which Baxi gas boiler to choose for a private home?

Like all gas boilers, the brand’s products are available in different installation options, with one or two circuits and different capacities.

When choosing a unit, you should pay attention to the different series:

• Slim – a series of floor structures with a cast iron heat exchanger, available in various power variations;
• Main - a basic wall-mounted line with a bithermal heat exchanger - the heating circuit and hot water supply go through one heat exchanger, but the water does not mix with each other;
• Eco - are distinguished by the presence of a secondary heat exchanger for the DHW circuit, made of stainless steel, due to which the load is reduced and the service life of the structure is increased. The models also have small dimensions and the latest electronic boards;
• Nuvola are dual-circuit models from the “always available hot water” category. They differ in the speed of heating water in the hot water system;
• Luna is a heating equipment with a removable digital panel.

Types of wall-mounted boilers "Baksi"

Based on the name, it becomes clear that these units are mounted on the wall. There are no strict requirements for the equipment installation process. The boilers are easy to operate and have a large power reserve. Available in several types.

Condensation

A certain part of the generated energy from such boilers is lost along with water vapor. But here you need to take into account the fact that the formed steam condenses. For this process to start, the combustion products must be cooled to a temperature of + 55 °C. This function is performed by the water inside the boiler. It cools the combustion products and then enters the system. For condensing boilers, there are certain requirements for the amount of temperature heating of the coolant.

Compared to traditional units, condensing units allow savings of approximately 11%. The products are not only economical, but also environmentally friendly - they can be installed even in residential premises. They work almost silently.

With one circuit

This type of boiler heats only the water that circulates through the heating system. If desired, the unit can also be connected to DHW, but this will require an indirect heating boiler.

When purchasing such a boiler, you need to take into account the volume of the chamber, based on the number of people living in the house. Units from Baksi with one circuit have a power rating from 14 to 31 kW, which is quite enough to efficiently warm up a country house with an area of ​​no more than 400 m2.

With two circuits

Double-circuit installations are in demand if you need to prepare hot water in a short time. Heating the liquid does not affect the operation of the heating system in any way. The key feature of boilers with two circuits is the presence of two heat exchangers. One is copper, which transfers heat from the unit to the radiator. The second prepares domestic hot water and is created from plates.

The heat exchanger that heats the water is a secondary element. Water is supplied to it as needed. Models with different types of heat exchange elements are produced.

Specifications

Let's look at the table of technical characteristics of boilers:

Only the most general characteristics characteristic of all models of a particular series are given.

Briefly about Vaillant and Baxi companies

Vaillant Group (Germany) is a family-owned company with 145 years of tradition, producing equipment for heating, water supply, ventilation and air conditioning. Vaillant equipment is distinguished by excellent German build quality. Vaillant is a pioneer in the development of energy-efficient technology based on renewable energy sources (energy from the sun, earth and water). The company is focused on the development and implementation of innovations and respect for the environment. Vailant boilers are full-fledged intelligent mini-boiler rooms with a stylish design and an abundance of additional functions, including remote control from a smartphone, integration into the smart home system and other promising solutions. Particularly noteworthy is the advanced self-diagnosis, which performs a number of tests that are not available for budget models (for example, monitoring the start of a circulation pump based on the level of discharge pressure).

The Italian manufacturer of heating and water supply equipment Baxi is known not only in Russia, but throughout the world. In the vastness of the Russian Federation, boilers appeared relatively recently, but in many houses and apartments of our compatriots today Baksi boilers and columns are installed. Baxi equipment replaced boilers produced in the USSR and in the post-Soviet space; it introduced Russians to new technologies and increased comfort when using heating and hot water supply. They are compact, have self-diagnosis functions, a full-fledged protection system, LCD display, modern design, etc. At the same time, prices for Baxi are significantly lower than premium quality brands such as Vaillant, Buderus and De Dietrich.

Prices for Baxi boilers are lower than for Vaillant, but the difference in cost is compensated by the quality of components and the presence of additional useful functions in Vaillant.

Both manufacturers have developed instructions and information brochures for the main range, so you can read the documentation in advance, even before purchasing. Many instructions for Vailant and Baksi are presented in our Heat-Comfort online store.
