10 cheapest boilers

The harsh climatic conditions in Russia are forcing residents to take care of heating their homes. Modern homes are equipped with a water heating system, in which the boiler plays a key role. Choosing the cheapest option of heating, it is necessary to take into account many factors. On the one hand, a cheap boiler makes it possible to obtain immediate benefits, but in the long run, the cost of heating will be very significant. In order not to be mistaken with the choice, several important factors should be taken into account.

• If the settlement has a gas main, then natural gas is best used as a source of thermal energy. The price of this fuel is available for all categories of residents, therefore, the heating of the house during the cold period will not ruin the residents. Gas boilers can work the whole season without maintenance, and routine cleaning or repairs can be carried out from spring to autumn. The only drawback of the blue fuel will be the high cost of connecting the house to the gas main.
• The cheapest and simplest are electric boilers. They are ordinary heating elements that heat a certain volume of water. To install such a heater, it is important to clarify the technical capabilities of the power grid in a particular locality. Among the advantages of electric boilers, it is worth noting the silent operation, the possibility of full automation, minimal maintenance of the device. Unfortunately, during the heating season you will have to pay a large amount of money when the bill for the consumed electricity comes.
• The most popular type of heating appliances in Russia is a solid fuel boiler. This is explained by the fact that not all regions are gasified or they have a reliable and powerful power grid. And firewood and coal are common everywhere, and in most cases their cost is low. Recently, modern heating devices have appeared that can economically consume not only firewood and coal, but also pellets (pressed sawdust in the form of pellets).
• For the heating of residential buildings can be used and liquid boilers. Most often, diesel fuel is used as a fuel for them. Large volumes of diesel fuel will have to be stored in large tanks that are mounted on the site (usually underground). The boiler must be installed in a separate room, equipped with sound insulation and ventilation.
• Combined boilers allow homeowners to determine for themselves what fuel is more economical in a given season. Very popular models that allow the use of solid fuel and gas, solid fuel and diesel fuel. For example, in the offseason there will be enough armfuls of firewood to improve the microclimate in a damp house.

Our review includes the cheapest boilers used in home heating systems. The rating is based on feedback from domestic consumers.

TOP 10 cheapest boilers

10 Electromash EVPM-6

Russian plant "Electromash" (Miass) was engaged in the production of electric boilers in 2013 and positions them as the safest type of heating equipment. The line of EVPM is presented by 5 models with a rated power from 3 to 12 kW. The maximum benefit from the use of EVPM-6 can be obtained by installing a 2-rate counter and combining the device in an open heating system with a solid fuel or gas boiler.

Water heaters are manufactured according to GOST 15150-69 (version UHL4) and can be installed both horizontally and vertically. A control panel with a magnetic starter and a thermostat is integrated in the housing, which allows to fine-tune the required temperature in the room. In addition, a sensor is connected to the circuit to protect the system from boiling up the electron carrier. In general, Miass generators are characterized as simple, fairly reliable and, if necessary, fully maintainable.
