Sometimes you really want something “native”, “homemade”. For example, choose a normal boiler: so that it does not make noise, constantly heats water and does not complain about breakdowns. Just for this occasion, we have an option - take a closer look at the design of Astra geysers. We will talk about their advantages and operation in our article. Make yourself comfortable, we're starting!

Features of Astra brand boilers

The Heat Exchanger company launched production 50 years ago, which allowed it to firmly strengthen its position, think through the quality and characteristics of Astra geysers, and compete for a place among competitors in the niche. The company's boiler systems are a personal and easy-to-use water heating system. It is intended for use in residential buildings or third-party premises.

Today, Astra has a whole model range, each item of which has its own unique technical characteristics and capabilities. But it’s nowhere without a “zest.” The company has come up with its own style, which immediately catches the eye - each device has a control unit.It is always located on the front side - this is still possible to distinguish a fake from the original.

Another function is a sensor that automatically turns off the device after finishing work, but no one talks about it, since it is a big secret.

The plant produces geysers that run only on natural gas. This fuel shows the highest heat transfer rates and economical resource consumption for heating a liter of water.

Modern models do not harm the environment at all, and at the same time have high efficiency, which simply cannot be compared with competing models. The devices have long replaced standard boiler systems, as they simply lost out in the competition. The latter are expensive and consume much more fuel than is required for a gas car.

The column completely solves the problem of supplying hot water throughout the house. Even a low-power device from the company calmly solves the issue of supplying water to a couple of faucets or a bathroom. More advanced devices (with an output of 12 liters per minute) can easily heat a family of 3-4 people, around the clock.

The company has become famous for producing fairly budget models. With all this, the devices have equipment at the level of devices in the middle and high price segment.

Excellent technical indicators brought “Heat Exchanger” to the top niche in the production of heating equipment. We will get acquainted with the operating instructions for Astra geysers just below.

Which models are included in the category of the best and best-selling

It's time to forget about utility companies who are constantly “modernizing”, but in fact do not provide anything except a long check.Therefore, the problem began to be solved by installing a boiler or geyser. But most buyers are not familiar with the design of heating systems. Especially for you, we will tell you about the technical characteristics of the HSV Astra and what they are buying now.

The plant provides a huge line of devices in both flow-through and storage formats. Instantaneous water heaters are distinguished by the fact that they are relatively small in size. Perfect for a room with a small square footage. The latter specialize in heating and storing large quantities of warm water (from 50 liters to half a ton). The design of the housing allows the temperature inside the boiler to be maintained for an extremely long time.

Among the Astra speakers, it is worth considering the main models of the segment, because they have become the most popular, best-selling and easiest to maintain:

• Geyser Astra 8910. It does not need instructions for operation at all - the design is extremely clear and primitive;
• JSD20-10A is a very inexpensive device with an electric igniter (you won’t even see this in premium speakers);
• Astra 10, 16 and other numbers always stand out for their ease of setup and maintenance.

Consumers liked not only the availability of the company's products. Installing a gas water heater is now absolutely safe - you should not be afraid of an accidental fire or pop from the gas. The system has a lot of sensors that are triggered in a critical situation: they turn off the water, close all valves, prohibit gas from flowing into the system, and much more.

How to use the Astra gas water heater correctly

Before moving on to the instructions for the Astra gas water heater, let’s say right away that independent installation of a boiler system of this type is prohibited by law! For installation, you need to call the local gas inspection staff.

Before connecting the device for full operation, always check the traction. To do this, light a match and place it near the ventilation hole. If the flame deviates to the side, there is draft. If the match is straight, you need to check the pipes for possible blockages. Work without traction is impossible, so it must be constantly monitored.

After successfully checking the draft in the system, open the gas tap, and then the water supply. Next, the burner is ignited using one of the methods provided by the device. This could be a mechanical button, a turbine lever or an electronic element. How to properly ignite the burner is always indicated in the operating instructions for the Astra column.

How to adjust the water temperature

First, assess the temperature state of the water. It’s worth saying right away that don’t expect quick results - the burner heats the water for a certain time, and only then it flows through the hot water tap. If you are not satisfied with the indicator, turn the boiler lever.

It is not recommended to increase the temperature to more than 55 degrees, especially in hard water. This affects the life of the column and the activity of scale deposits in the system.

After changing the settings, you need to wait a little. For a normal temperature increase, drain the old water and wait until the new one heats up in the boiler. Remember that the efficiency of the device may decrease under different pressures in the system.

If you have problems with blood pressure, you can do the following:

• remove the metal body of the boiler;
• loosen the locking bolt, then measure the indicator with a pressure gauge;
• remove the seal from the adjuster nut;
• turn on the boiler;
• unscrew all the mixers and set the column to maximum;
• adjust the pressure to the desired parameter.

Some devices in the Astra line have an additional “Winter-Summer” mode. In it, the heating power depends on the temperature of the water flow from the water supply. In winter, you need to set the “maximum” mark - maximum heating of the liquid is performed. Since in summer the water temperature is already sufficient, you need to set it to the minimum position. This will save resources and money on utilities.
