Boilers "Galan": reviews. Boilers "Galan": characteristics, wiring diagram

Currently, there is a large number of manufacturers of heating equipment. Most boilers are installed by specialists, in addition, before mounting you will need to get a lot of permits. But there are alternative solutions that simplify the whole procedure. It's about electric heating. Let's look at useful reviews. Boilers "Galan" - that's what we'll talk about in this article.

General information and description

Today the company produces two types of heating equipment: TEN and electrode boilers. The latter are in high demand. It is due to the fact that it is not necessary to get the coordination of the relevant bodies, and this, as practice shows, speeds up the installation process at times.

Quite interesting is the process of heating such devices. The principle is the ionization of the coolant. It turns out that its ions are divided into positive and negative, respectively, they move to positive and negative electrodes. Oscillations of ions lead to the fact that energy is released, and the coolant heats up.

The ionization chamber is relatively small, which positively affects the heating rate. However, not always among consumers such a decision receives unequivocal feedback. Boilers "Galan" someone simply does not cause trust. Due to the fact that most buyers are disappointed in the domestic manufacturer. But if you look more closely, you can see that this company has a fairly high rating. What speaks about worthy quality of production. Well, now let's go further and understand the main points.

Features of installation of electrical equipment brand "Galan"

It is noteworthy that you can perform the installation manually. This will not only save on installation, but also get a precious experience. As noted above, the installation is not so complicated, but it requires elementary knowledge of electricians.

We have already decided that you do not need permission to receive, however, you will need to make a ground connection that meets the GOST. This is due to the fact that the boiler "Galan", the connection scheme of which must necessarily include grounding, is powered by a 220/380 V voltage. For a person, such a power stroke will surely become fatal. In addition to grounding, it is recommended to do zeroing.

By itself, the installation process is not much different from installing other heating equipment. To note is that it is very difficult to put the temperature regulator on its own. It must be calibrated by specialists. If you buy Galan (a heating boiler with the presence of a climate control sensor), it is better to entrust the installation to professionals. The reason is that if the controller is calibrated incorrectly, then the room will either be hot or cold.

Do not forget that the boiler "Galan", the connection diagram of which is shown below (in the photo), works exclusively on water or antifreeze. Due to the use of another liquid, the equipment will quickly fail, and the case will not be guaranteed. Well, now consider a few more interesting points.

Customer Reviews

It is necessary to mention such an important point as the feedback of buyers of electronic boilers. For the most part, users are happy with them. Many write about real savings. In addition, the network can be found a large number of positive reviews, which relate to the service. In addition to the fast delivery, the goodwill of the company's employees pleases. But on this all the most interesting things are just beginning. Many reviews of real savings with boilers "Galan" lines "Geyser", "Hearth", etc. Users can achieve a significant reduction in electricity costs. A device with a capacity of 15 kW is enough to heat a two-story house. Agree, this is the best solution, for example, for a dacha where there is no possibility to connect the gas main.

And gas does not always look good against the background of the electrode equipment of the company "Galan". The heating boiler has a high heating rate. Many people also write about the fact that it always makes sense to connect the electrode boiler as a backup boiler. If there are problems with gas, then it can become the main source of heat. However, there are other reviews.

The Galan boilers are very sensitive to voltage drops, so you will need a powerful rectifier or an additional generator, which in the event of a light outage will support the operation of the boiler. Many users pay attention to this moment, because it is quite important.

Electronic boiler "Galan": features

As has been repeatedly noted in this article, you do not need to get permission to install, which is the main feature of the Galan equipment. It is worthwhile to draw your attention to the fact that a boiler of this type, be it Vulkan or Ochag, is not only a kind of heater, but also a circulation pump. For the user this is a significant cost savings. Electrode heating equipment is extremely accurate and operates in an automatic mode. The power consumption will depend on which coolant temperature you have set. In addition, the equipment adapts itself to the required operating mode. For example, most boilers work around the clock, but about 14 hours stand in standby mode. In simple words, the device has a sensor that removes the air temperature and sends it to the control element. If it drops to a certain limit, the boiler starts.

In addition, if you want for an additional fee you can get a climate control. So you can adjust the temperature of the air in the room according to the programmed cycle, which will contain weeks, days and even hours. If it is necessary that the electronic boiler "Galan" in the evening work at a reduced power, then it can be set without any problems to the "smart" technique. All this makes the boilers from this manufacturer unique in its kind.

The smallest and largest

"Hearth-03" is considered the most miniature heating equipment from the manufacturer in question. Its weight to you may seem ridiculous - only five hundred grams. But despite this, the unit develops a power of 3 kW, and this is enough to heat seventy liters of coolant or a room of 25 square meters. Specific resistance begins to increase with increasing carrier temperature, over time, the electrode electrode "Galan" "Hearth" develops its maximum power. For a month of constant operation this equipment consumes about 500 kW.

The company currently offers its customers two complete sets: "Standard" and "Lux". The latter in addition to the boiler itself and the control unit includes a weekly regulated climate control program.

As for the most powerful model of heating equipment of the company "Galan", it is "Vulcan-25". Such equipment is suitable not only for use in an apartment or a house, but also for a small boiler house. Unlike the previous version, the rated voltage is 380 V, so you will need a separate power source. In fact, the boiler electric heating "Galan" "Vulcan-25" can heat the room in 850 cubic meters with a monthly cost of 3 000 kW. The volume of heat carrier for such a boiler should be not less than 150 liters and not more than 300 liters.

Advantages and disadvantages of boilers "Galan"

We emphasize that it is necessary to buy heating equipment only after acquaintance with the full list of pros and cons of such devices. Speaking specifically about Galan's products, first of all it is worth noting significant energy savings. The fact is that the electrode equipment allows you to set the minimum temperature during the absence of people in the house. This approach solves two problems at once: first, energy is saved, and secondly, a normal temperature is maintained in the dwelling. This can be achieved with the help of thermostats, which are located in each heated room. Periodically, the sensors take measurements and analyze the information. Another important point - do not need to install a chimney and store fuel, as in the case of coal. Among other things, the connection of the Galan boiler can be performed without the participation of specialists, and even in such a device dirt and dust do not accumulate.

As for the shortcomings, then, of course, they are also available. The main disadvantage is that the equipment is extremely sensitive to voltage drop, in particular, to power surges, which can damage both the protection and stuffing of equipment. This problem is solved by installing a stabilizer.

Another drawback is that some models require a high-quality coolant. It can be distilled water or antifreeze. And now let's take a closer look at how to properly install such boilers.

About the installation in detail

To date, there are four types of connections that are actively used:

• Parallel;
• Standard;
• Floor heating;
• Modular.

The most popular are parallel and standard connections. Let's look at how to connect the boiler in this way.

The first thing you need to decide on a suitable place. Next, using a comb, connect the main device, which is necessary to distribute water or antifreeze on the radiators. On the latter there are special cranes with which it is possible to regulate the amount of the passing coolant.

Please note that the layout of the Galan boiler of any model implies the installation of a system for bleeding excess air from the system. This will help keep the equipment in good condition and prevent it from premature failure. At the final stage, the boiler is connected to the network.

Do you want to connect the boiler to the underfloor heating system? Do the following. Connect the air outlet to the warm floor. Mount the sensors that control temperature and pressure. Then in the niche, install the controllers and connect the device to the network. Remember that you need to perform the installation only when you have experience in carrying out similar work, otherwise it is better to involve specialists, since you are dealing with electricity. Failure to observe basic safety rules can result in injuries and even death due to electric shock.

A little about the price of equipment

As noted above, there are various heating boilers "Galan". Today the company sells units of model lines "Hearth", "Geyser" and "Vulkan" with a capacity of 3, 5, 9, 15 and 25 kW.

Small-sized models are suitable for premises with a small area, and the most powerful boilers can heat huge spaces. The price of aggregates varies depending on their effectiveness. Electrode models will cost at least three and a half thousand rubles, and a maximum of fifteen thousand. Take into account the fact that there are different configurations. For example, in the base only the boiler and automation are supplied, in more expensive there is also climate control.

Particular attention should be paid to the fact that fraud has become more frequent today. For this reason, it is worthwhile to check the quality of the product very carefully. By the way, in addition to the ideal technical condition of the device, its passport must also be in perfect order. If the company has a license and positive feedback, which is important, you can safely make a purchase. In conclusion, do not forget to clarify the specifics of the procedure for returning the boiler, if it turns out to be defective or defective. And do not be tempted by the low price. Purchase only original electric heating boilers "Galan". Feedback from owners of such equipment will tell you where to look for a quality product.

A very important point

Despite the fact that the boiler itself is relatively small, it needs to be installed correctly. Prepare a niche in advance and provide easy access to the network. Do not forget that the equipment is powered by a three-phase network. As noted above, antifreeze or drinking water can be used as a coolant. Specific resistance of the liquid should not be less than three and more than thirty two thousand Ohm / cm at a maximum temperature of 150 degrees. By the way, the quality of the media can be improved. In this way, you extend the life of the boiler. It is quite easy to do this. It is possible to install a purification filter from mechanical impurities, which is desirable to be mounted on a pipeline. A significant amount of insoluble compounds will be retained, which will have a beneficial effect on the longevity of the equipment.

Above, boilers "Galan" were discussed in detail. The characteristics of the equipment depend on the model. But if we talk in general, then similar devices can heat a room measuring 75 to 550 cubic meters. In this case, the power varies from 3 to 25 kW. But how much you will save depends only on the insulation of the room. Some users say about savings of 45% compared to gas equipment. This is impressive figures, but this can not be achieved by all. But to reduce the costs by 5-20% under everyone's power, the main thing is to properly perform the installation and calibrate the electronic equipment.

Conclusion

As you can see, it is important to read reviews. Boilers "Galan", without a doubt, are profitable heating technology. From which side you look, almost everywhere there are some advantages - small dimensions, energy saving and ease of installation. All these qualities are inherent in heating equipment, which is produced by the domestic company.

We have considered all the most common questions and will make a completely logical conclusion that with the proper quality of the electric main it is possible to install such a boiler. Of course, such a solution will not work if you live in a place where a large load on the network or voltage does not reach the required 220 V. In this case, the stabilizer can help out. By the way, the best solution as an alternative source of heat will be the boiler "Galan" "Ochag-3". The owners' feedback indicates that it will be very helpful in a difficult moment. Even a high-power heater will not replace a three-kilowatt "Hearth".

On this we finish the story about electrode boilers from this manufacturer. The equipment of such a plan becomes more and more popular every year, especially for country houses and dachas, where there are no gas mains. Moreover, it is possible to combine electrode boilers with each other and create a full-fledged boiler house.
