Which heating radiators are better to install in an apartment, and which ones are better for a private house? Not everyone knows that the difference between a central water supply and an autonomous one is huge! That is why, in the last decade, many who recently replaced old batteries regretted it very much, since the new ones lasted some five to eight years and had to be thrown away. Agree, this is not a period for such devices. And the only problem was that people were not very knowledgeable and bought something that is categorically not suitable for apartments.
In this article, you will learn how to choose the right heating radiators so that they serve not for years, but for decades.
Why should radiators be chosen more carefully for centrally heated dwellings?
It would seem, what could be the threats in the central heating system, except for dirty water and old pipes on which rust settles? But, it’s not that simple. The biggest threat is water hammer. It occurs if the water supply tap in the boiler room is taken and abruptly shut off, whereas, according to the rules, it is supposed to be turned on slowly and gradually. But, you understand, there are no rules for a drunk public utility worker! And as a result of such negligence – bursting brand new and modern batteries in so many apartments.
It is interesting that before the advent of ball valves, boiler rooms were equipped with special smooth-running valves that exclude any human error. And then these convenient and safe valves were taken and replaced. What for? Not very clear. But you should know about this before you decide to buy new radiators.
In addition, air can enter the heating system, which can also provoke water hammer. And as a result: bursting pipes of cheap radiators, damaged property, floors flooded with boiling water and compensation for damage from the flood to neighbors …
Also, you must understand that centralized water is very oversaturated with chemicals, which over time can corrode the walls of too thin radiators to holes.
We think now you understand how important it is to choose the right radiator for your home. But, let’s take a closer look at what is what in today’s market.
What materials are radiators made of now and what are their features?
The consumer is now offered batteries from the following types of metal:
Cast iron
Steel
Aluminum
Bimetal
Copper
Now let’s go through each of them and consider their advantages and disadvantages.
Cast iron
We knowingly put this old and good metal in the first place. Cast iron batteries have been used to heat a private house and apartments for more than a century, and in some old houses you can still find old radiators that function perfectly. It’s not even about the well-known Soviet harmonicas, although they also can’t be demolished.
And they are often thrown away solely because of the outdated and rough appearance. But, to our happiness, today the buyer is presented with a large selection of various designs of cast-iron batteries, from modern to classic, with monograms, vintage faucets and valves. For example, devices from Demir Dokum, Konner and many others produce such beautiful batteries that they become an additional element of the interior in a classic or eclectic style.
So why is cast iron so good? And the fact, at least, that it is absolutely passive to the chemical reaction that is caused in other types of metals by centralized water, oversaturated with chemistry.
Then, such radiators do not rust from the inside in the summer, when water is drained from them. Also, a cast-iron radiator, due to its characteristics, with all the desire, cannot be cast as thin as steel or aluminum. And this means that the particles of sludge, constantly circulating in the pipes, will not wipe it to holes over time.
But, this is only one aspect regarding durability. What about functionality? Cast iron heats up slowly and this is a minus. But, it also cools down slowly, which is already a plus. If the heating was suddenly turned off in the apartment, which is not uncommon in our time, then the cast iron will give off heat for a long time, while the rest of the radiators will instantly become ice. Yes, and to the touch they are much hotter than the rest, at the same temperature of the water poured into the pipes, as they accumulate heat.
Also, cast iron is not afraid of surges in atmospheric pressure and water hammer, which in itself is a fat plus without any comments.
Well, the last advantage is the price. If you take domestic-made cast-iron batteries, then they will turn out to be much cheaper than bimetallic ones, for example, while the design will be quite modern. But for the retro style you will have to overpay, but they will please the eye all your life.
Steel
Many, giving preference to steel batteries of modern production, compare them with Soviet radiators, which were equipped with all the high-rise buildings of our vast country. They say that they stood for twenty years and nothing happened to them, which means that the metal is reliable.
But, do not rush to conclusions. Steel became different. And the Soviet quality and the current one are two big differences. Chinese manufacturers, for example, offer the consumer very nice radiators, only their thickness is slightly thicker than the thickness of a solid foil. You yourself understand that these are not batteries, but some kind of disposable props that will burst from the first water hammer. So, when choosing such a radiator, pay attention to the weight of the product.
But even thicker-walled models are not immune from water hammer, alas. And they are afraid of water with chemical impurities like fire. They rust, become thinner and wiped from sludge … In general, the option is unreliable for those who use centralized water.
Aluminum
Aluminum heating radiators are practically the same as steel heating radiators. All the disadvantages of the first are present here. The only thing is they don’t rust. But on the other hand, they are so soft that they are wiped much faster than the first. However, as a rule, things simply do not reach thinning, since they shamelessly burst from water hammer.
But aluminum has one undoubted plus: fast heating. But is this a plus, given that they also cool down quickly?
Yes, this is an inexpensive option. Yes, the design is modern. But taking such radiators into an apartment is the height of frivolity.
Bimetal
These radiators are made from two types of metals. They have an aluminum top, but the inside is made of copper or steel. Aluminum protects against external rust, so it is placed as a protective casing.
As you understand, the concept of “bimetal” in itself does not guarantee high quality. The inner metal plays a decisive role. If there is steel inside, then be prepared for corrosion to corrode the radiator from the inside, and much faster than you think when it comes to central heating. But the copper filler is good, you can’t say anything. But the price bites…
And there is one more big minus in these radiators. Their heat dissipation is not as good as that of mono-batteries, since resistance is formed at the junction of metals, which significantly reduces heat transfer.
Frankly speaking, we do not share the enthusiasm for this particular type of radiators and it is not very clear why such a price.
Important:
In addition, it would be a sin not to mention the fact that when changing batteries, you do not change the boiler room itself! That is, the water supply there is designed for appliances, the section of which holds 3-5 liters of water. Project aisles are wide enough and there can be no problems with filling. But in the case of European radiators, which are designed for 1 glass of water per section (they save water and their boiler rooms supply water under high pressure), the situation is very bad. Often, very often, a stream of water tuned to other sources simply bypasses microscopic holes and quietly runs around the battery without getting into it. In general, nobody canceled physics, you understand.
Copper
Good batteries, durable. They are not afraid of water hammer, they are not subject to corrosion. But they are very expensive and the design of pure copper radiators leaves much to be desired. They do not look like batteries, but like some spare part from the factory, albeit a nice copper color. By the way, if salt or acid gets on copper. Then you are provided with a green spot that is very difficult to scrub off. And in general, it is inconvenient to wash them.
What radiators are suitable for apartments in high-rise buildings?
So what have we come to? Ideal for apartments
Cast iron
Copper
Bimetal with copper inside
Other radiators are a temporary pleasure. And not just temporary, but short-term.
Which radiators are suitable only for private houses?
But in the case of autonomous heating, things are much more fun. All types of batteries can be installed in a private house and they will last a very long time. Water hammer, sludge, sand, caustic chemicals in the water are excluded there. But, again… If brackish water comes out of your well, which is rare, but it happens, then you should not take steel radiators, as the salt will “eat” them in three years.
What parameters to pay attention to when buying in the first place?
The most important thing is metal. But that’s not all. You need to know what atmospheric pressure is provided for by your boiler room. For example, in Khrushchev and Stalinka buildings built in the 50s and 60s, the pressure is only 5-6 atmospheres, which means that modern batteries that can hold only 200 grams of water per section will definitely not fit there, a weak flow of water will simply ignore these holes . But in skyscrapers, the pressure is much higher, about 15-20 atmospheres, and you can easily install a bimetal (only with copper inside, remember?).
Also, when choosing batteries, count on the possibility of water hammer. This means that their resistance should be at least two times greater than the initial atmospheric pressure in the system. That is, if you have a supply of 15-20 atmospheres, then take batteries with a resistance of at least 40 atmospheres.
We will not talk about the appearance of the batteries. In this case, the most important thing is functionality. Therefore, it is better to take cast-iron batteries that are not of the most presentable appearance than to take a beauty, and then change it after some five years.
Conclusion
That, in general, is all that we wanted to tell you. We are sure that armed with this knowledge, you will be able to choose good batteries. And what are the best radiators for an apartment you already know for sure and will not repeat the sad experience of ignorant people.
There is a misconception that ultraviolet heaters and infrared heaters are one and the same. But this is not so – ultraviolet-based heaters are not used for space heating, but, for example, for the functioning of a solarium. Although exposure to the sun provides vitamin D to the skin, prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation causes burns or more serious consequences, which makes the tanning bed a dubious device. But devices using ultraviolet light were originally invented to eliminate bacteria, since ultraviolet rays have disinfectant properties. Nevertheless, there are still devices that use ultraviolet radiation for heating, which can partly be called heaters.
Advantages and disadvantages of ultraviolet
The main advantage of ultraviolet light is its disinfectant properties. It penetrates the bacterial DNA and destroys the reproductive cells, preventing them from multiplying. However, a person may not worry about his genetic code, his skin is reliably protected and ultraviolet rays will not reach him. And also, scientists and psychiatrists have proven that being under the sun helps in the treatment of depressive disorders, this also justifies such a phenomenon as “autumn depression”, which strikes people with a long absence of sunlight. Other benefits of UV rays include:
helps plants accumulate vitamin A, which they use in photosynthesis;
stimulates the production of healthy vitamin D, which helps maintain normal blood sugar levels.
The disadvantages of ultraviolet radiation are also significant:
prolonged exposure to the sun will lead to burns and more serious consequences up to cancer;
a severe burn of the cornea of the eye is possible (a person receives light burns almost every day when going outside, but the eye recovers from them on its own).
UV devices
The phrase “ultraviolet heaters” does not mean a heater in the traditional sense of the word. Such devices look like an ordinary lamp that performs various functions, usually disinfecting. They are made from special glass.
Such lamps can be seen in hospitals; either large ones in the wards (with their help they disinfect the room in the absence of patients), or small ones that help in the treatment of colds – ultraviolet rays are directed to the nose and their heat can cure a runny nose. They are also used according to the same principle, but for the treatment of ear infections – the lamp is directed to the ear.
Aquarium Ultraviolet Sterilizer
The device used for cleaning aquariums is assembled from a small cylinder with two tubes inside for water inlet and outlet. Inside this cylinder is an ultraviolet lamp. The principle of operation of the device is that dirty water enters through one tube, undergoes disinfection from ultraviolet rays, and exits through another tube, already purified. However, cleaning the aquarium with this device is not always effective because, for example, in large aquariums, the device will not be able to collect water that is closer to the bottom of the aquarium, and it will remain partially dirty. And in salt water, due to the density, the device is generally useless.
This device is not recommended for permanent use, as ultraviolet rays destroy not only harmful bacteria, but also those that are beneficial to fish, snails and other aquarium inhabitants.
UV Mosquito Repellent Lamp
It is a device that looks like a cage through which a current passes with ultraviolet LEDs inside. The principle of operation of the device is that ultraviolet radiation attracts insects, they sit on the grate and a current discharge eliminates them. The advantages of the device are obvious, but the disadvantages include the inability to work during daylight hours and in rainy weather.
Where are ultraviolet heaters used?
In addition to repelling insects and disinfecting medical facilities, ultraviolet heaters are used for other purposes:
Beauty salons use ultraviolet devices for processing manicure tools; those that cannot be succumbed to another type of disinfection.
In spas, you can find towel dryers, cabinet-like devices that contain a heating element and ultraviolet lamps that dry and disinfect towels.
There are ultraviolet dryers for shoes – these are two small devices with a heating element inside and an ultraviolet lamp.
In dental centers, light fillings are installed with their help.
Prevention of bacterial growth in swimming pools.
Conclusion
When choosing a heater, you do not need to opt for an ultraviolet device – it is simply unsafe to keep such devices in the house, since, as already mentioned, even in medical institutions disinfection is carried out with ultraviolet heaters only when there are no people in the room. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays harms the eyes and skin. To warm up the house, it is worth considering infrared gas heaters or electric convectors.
In this ranking, I have collected the 10 best washing machines from Samsung in 2022. Samsung is recognized as the world leader in the range of washing machines of the middle price category from 19 to 50 thousand rubles. The characteristic features of the equipment are a clear interface, the South Korean brand’s own know-how for more efficient washing with conventional powders, the safety of clothes, a stylish classic design and high reliability.
It was the huge assortment that prompted me to decide to rank the best Samsung washing machines from models that seem to be the same in terms of parameters and characteristics, but strikingly different in price. Let’s see why one costs 19 thousand rubles, and another with the same characteristics is already 22 or even 50 thousand rubles.
Samsung WF8590NLW8
The rating opens, the most inexpensive model is 19,500 rubles. Loading characteristics, dimensions, control, drum technology and display type are absolutely the same with 3 more TOP models: WF60F1R0H0W, WF8590NLW9, WF60F1R0E2WD.

Due to the DiamondDrum technology, the linen is not washed “to the holes”. Recessed holes are molded in the walls of the drum, their diameter is reduced by 43% – all this allows you to keep linen, clothes in their original integrity 50% longer than when washing in conventional drums.
Pros:
Low cost of 19,500 rubles for multifunctional modern equipment.
DiamondDrum technology for saving linen and clothes when washing.
Large door diameter with an inlet of 330 mm – makes it easier to put in and take out large items.
The buttons on the display panel are ergonomically designed with LED backlighting. Easier control of the program switch handle.
High energy saving class A+ 0.17 kWh/kg.
8 standard programs and 2 special programs, including the ability to set the end of the wash.

Minuses:
Greater water consumption for washing than in WF60F1R0E2WD (48/39 l).
There is no program for washing delicate fabrics and from creasing.
There is no proprietary brand protection against power surges.
Small things get stuck between the rubber band and the glass.
When fully loaded, the detergent is poorly rinsed out, an additional rinse is needed.
There are 32 positive reviews for this model on Yandex.Market. Users noted the full compliance with price / functionality, the quality of washing, the presence of protection for the case and from children. Normal washing machine for a family of 1-4 people. Performs 8 types of basic washing modes and 2 special ones. If you have problems with power surges in the city, then it is better to pay 1,500 rubles extra and take the Samsung WF8590NLW9.
Samsung WF60F1R0H0W
A model with 2-stage AquaStop leakage protection, with DiamondDrum technology and Silver Wash brand fungus and bacteria removal technology (silver ions are added to the detergent solution). Lower energy class than WF8590NLW8 – class A. Only 7 standard programs, but they cover all types of fabrics and processing methods.
Pros:
Modern functional equipment at a low price of 20,000 rubles.
Consumes less water per cycle compared to WF8590NLW8 39/48L.
Added anti-crease program.
There is a control for foaming and imbalance (as with all models of the brand).
Diamond Drum Technology.
Minuses:
As in the WF8590NLW8, there is no proprietary protection against voltage surges in the network.
Higher power consumption than WF8590NLW8 (A/A+).
There is no function to set the end of the wash.
A good modern machine with programs for baby clothes, with unbalance and anti-crease control. The difference in price with the WF8590NLW8 is only 500 rubles. If you choose the best, I would choose the first model (WF8590NLW9), it is more functional, there are more popular washing modes, and it has less power consumption.
Samsung WF8590NLW9
It differs in design, the hatch is beautifully highlighted in silver. Unlike the first two models, this one has proprietary surge protection. The manufacturer guarantees uninterrupted operation at jumps of +/- 25%. The second important difference is the removable top cover, the machine can be installed under the countertop.
Model with simple intuitive control, with flexible settings. If there is no desired mode, it is selected independently from the basic settings. You can even change the speed of rotation of the drum.
Pros:
Low price 21 000 for functional equipment.
Possibility of installation under a table-top.
Voltage surge protection.
Energy saving class A +.
The end of washing is accompanied by a sound signal.
As in WF8590NLW8, there is a time for setting the end of the wash.
Diamond Drum Technology.
Minuses:
Increased water consumption per cycle compared to WF60F1R0H0W 48/39 l.
There is no program for washing delicate fabrics.
There is no anti-crease program.
With other equal characteristics with the two previous models, this one has protection against voltage surges. For cities and towns remote from electrical substations, where there are often interruptions and instability with power supplies, the WF8590NLW9 is just a godsend. And for big cities, enhanced protection of equipment will not be superfluous. In terms of functionality, the device is excellent, a lot of program modes, the ability to adjust and correct standard programs, the capacity is average, for a small family of 3-4 people. Well, if you want a larger load and a complete upgrade, for example, with a drying mode, then the surcharge will be 29,000 rubles, which is how much the WD70J5410AW costs.
Samsung WF60F1R0E2WD
The centrifuge in this model spins 200 revolutions faster than in the previous three (1200/1000 rpm). It is very economical in energy consumption according to class A ++, respectively, the spin class is higher than that of the first three – class B. There is surge protection.
Pros:
An excellent combination of the price of 21,500 rubles and a set of technological functions.
A bubble wash has been added to the main programs.
Economical in energy consumption.
Very good spin class – B.
Diamond Drum Technology.
Voltage surge protection.
8 standard washing modes and 5 special ones.
Minuses:
There is no wrinkle and stain removal program.
No signal at the end of the wash.
You cannot set the end time of the wash or delay the start, as in WF60F1R0H0W, WF8590NLW9, WF60F1R0E2WD.
Very noisy when spinning 77 dB.
An excellent model for apartments where there is soft water to use the bubble wash. Surge protection is also a useful technology that extends the life of the equipment. Many operating program modes – room for choice, and enhanced spin with reduced energy consumption, although it does not replace the drying function, it will reduce the drying time of the laundry. The lack of an anti-crease program and setting the end of the wash can be a minus, if this is important, return to the WF8590NLW9 model.
Samsung WF60F1R2E2WD
Beautiful contrasting design, on a white background of the case, a black hatch with tinted glass with a pattern. Unlike the first four, the control is not electronic, but touch. Text display with LED backlight. Maximum centrifuge speed, energy consumption and spin class as in WF60F1R0E2WD (1200 rpm, A ++, B).
Pros:
Beautiful design.
Added special modes compared to WF60F1R0E2WD and WF8590NLW9 – now available washing outerwear, economy program, delayed start, super rinse.
As in the WF8590NLW8, there is a wool wash, setting the end time, delaying the start by 19h.
Diamond Drum Technology.
Surge protection.
Minuses:
It does not remember the previous mode, you need to set the parameters again each time.
Poor short wash. Of the 15 minutes, the wash itself lasts 2 minutes.
The child protection mode is very short, only 2-3 seconds.
If the centrifuge is not fully loaded, then it does not start up to 1200 rpm, only at 800 rpm.
As a result, a normal washing machine with the quality of washing and spinning by 4.7 points according to the number of positive reviews on Yandex.Market and E-Catalog. Performs washing of outerwear, protected from power surges, economical in terms of water and electricity consumption, interesting design. The difference in cost with the WF60F1R0E2WD is only 500 rubles (22,000 rubles), but more than the established modes.
Samsung WW65K42E00S
Model with a beautiful silver body and a crystal black hatch, with a load capacity of 6.5 kg. The price is an order of magnitude higher than the first five copies of 34,500 rubles. New technologies have been added to the previously described DiamondDrum, AquaStop, Silver Wash technologies.
Pros:
Eco Bubble technology effectively removes detergent residue from laundry and clothes. This is a super fast rinse with increased water consumption and maximum spin speed.
AddWash function – allows you to add things to an already started cycle of work, add pre-washed clothes for rinsing only.
Additional hatch on the door.
There is a Smart Check function for a smartphone, you can find faults and get recommendations on how to fix them.
Bubble washing system in soft water, as in WF60F1R0E2WD.
Steam for deep cleaning of fabrics from the bottom up.
Added intensive soak mode.
9 programs including ECO drum cleaning.
Minuses:
Difficult to apply powder.
There is no program for creasing, washing outerwear, downy items and mixed fabrics – for a price of 34,500 rubles, they could have done more functionality.
No surge protection.
A machine with a modern upgrade, with a lot of branded technologies. According to users, it erases on the score 4.8 points. Quiet when washing, but roars at maximum speed. 3 points for energy saving. According to 40% of users, the price of the model is too high, they believe that the WF60F1R0E2WD is much more functional and useful in the household, and costs 12,500 rubles less (22,000).
Samsung WW65K42E08W
The price difference with WW65K42E00S is only 500 rubles – 35,000 rubles. But another design is coming: a white hull and a crystal white hatch. The washing modes have been expanded compared to the previous model and there are more programs to choose from – 12. Otherwise, the technical extensions and parameters are the same.
Pros:
Added wool washing mode, washing black clothes, removing stains.
Maximum delay start 24 hours.
No vibration at high speeds.
Large selection of program modes – 12.
Users like the end of wash signal.
On the hatch there is a small door for reloading, it is very convenient to add things and as a window for ventilation of the centrifuge.
Fault alerts – timely prevention and quick minor repairs, noted by 75% of users.
Minuses:
Defective models come across, after 2 weeks the centrifuge cuff falls off, the repair is complex and long in service.
The powder in the container does not dissolve well, it gets lumpy.
Does not correspond to the specified load of 6.5 kg. Holds up to 6 kg.
In general, from the reviews, I can conclude that this model is voluminous, quiet in operation and in the spin cycle, does not vibrate at maximum speed, and is very easy to level during installation. You can add things to a running machine without stopping and ending programs. With the right choice of mode, it removes all stains and dirt. For a machine with such a “reinforced” technology equipment, there is only one drawback – there is no protection against voltage surges. If you pay 35,000, then for this model, and not for WW65K42E00S for 34,500.
Samsung WW65K52E69S
The design of the model is very bright and original, on a silver body there is a crystal blue hatch. Full touch touch display with simple interface. Otherwise
functional extensions as in WW65K42E00S and WW65K42E08W. What justifies the “extra” 2 thousand in price (37,000)? High A+++ energy saving class and power surge protection.
Pros:
Fully justifies 37,000 rubles: modern technological programs to improve the quality of washing with a high energy-saving characteristic.
There is surge protection.
12 wash programs as in WW65K42E08W.
Special programs for bed linen.
Sensitive control sensor.
Five rinse modes.
Additional hatch, as in WW65K42E08W and WW65K42E00S.
Minuses:
The additional door is difficult to block.
A sensitive sensor is not always “ok”, you can accidentally press and knock down all programs, but not a word in the instructions how to block it.
Excellent “fancy” washing machine, the dream of the hostess. 12 programs, 5 rinses, protected from drops, the drum is processed and cleaned according to a special program, steam supply removes old stains from work clothes and kitchen towels, you can even save children’s things. I am for 37,000 rubles and for this model. Overpayment with WW65K42E00S is minimal 2 thousand, but the reliability in this model is higher.
Samsung WW70K62E00S
The beautiful design of the model draws attention to the silvery body of the crystal shine sunroof – a feeling of cleanliness. Model with a large drum load up to 7 kg. The type of drum is different from all the previous ones discussed earlier. Swirl soft-curl drum – a special design prevents the laundry from curling and reduces damage to it. The most important point in this washing machine is the presence of the Samsung ecobubble inverter motor. There are technologies like in WW65K52E69S, WW65K42E00S – these are AddWash, Eco Bubble and Smart Check.
Pros:
An excellent unit for 41,000 rubles, high functionality and washing quality.
Quiet at work.
10 year inverter motor warranty.
Swirl soft-curl drum – increased laundry savings, better than DiamondDrum drums in models WW65K42E08W or WW65K52E69S.
15 program modes including drum cleaning.
Minuses:
Some indicators for options are not labeled but have icons.
Short drain hose. You will not find its length in the descriptions, and then you have to suffer with the installation. Ask for size when buying.
No spin at 600 rpm.
The energy class is not A +++, as many sites indicate, but A. This is indicated by the manufacturer.
Great laundry helper. Multifunctional, with a large load and a huge number of program modes. There are quick wash cycles, steam treatment, drum cleaning. Quiet thanks to the inverter motor, stain removal efficiency. I think that 41,000 rubles is a reasonable price. One “disadvantage” of the model, it is without drying. If this is important, then an additional payment of 9 thousand rubles will make you the owner of a WD70J5410AW with drying.
Samsung WD70J5410AW
The most expensive 50,000 rubles and the most “fancy” rating model. It comes with drying up to 5 kg of laundry. And the spin of the wet goes up to 1400 rpm. In depth, our hero is larger than the rest 55 cm, while all the previous ones have this parameter of 45 cm. The machine does not have a reload function, so you will have to immediately determine the portion for washing. Other technologies are similar to WW70K62E00S.
Pros:
Two in one drying / washing for only 50,000 rubles.
Two drying programs for cotton and synthetics.
Original design: white hull with blue hatch.
The maximum extraction in the centrifuge is 1400 rpm.
Drum Diamond Drum, as in WW65K52E69S.
There is a mode of removal of smells and disinfection.
Minuses:
High water consumption of 77 liters per cycle.
Consumes a lot of energy in class A 4.76 kWh per cycle.
When drying, the laundry knocks on the drum, it is better not to use it at night.
Excellent washing machine for only 50 thousand rubles. For urban dusty air, it is very important to dry not on the street, with this model the problems are solved. What can be offered instead of this technique? Just buy any model from the rating and buy a separate dryer.
My rating of the best gas boilers in 2022 is dedicated to an overview of floor and wall models with different operating parameters from mains and liquefied gas.

In the differential relay, the pipes accumulate condensate, the boiler is turned off.
Verdict. A good inexpensive boiler, heats up a large area, can be installed in any room for private, residential, domestic needs. Quickly warms up the system, heats the water for use. Compact. Can be used for batteries and underfloor heating at the same time. Works from the main and liquefied gas, as BAXI ECO-4s 24F.
Buderus Logamax U072-24K
Model for heating and hot water supply for use with a built-in plate heat exchanger, with automatic control to adjust the operation to different conditions and systems. The price is 30400 rubles.
Pros:
Resistant to voltage drops, operating range – 165–240 V.
Designed to work with hard water (up to 16 dGH).

Minuses:
As in the Bosch Gaz 6000 W WBN 6000-24 C, it starts to give an error due to a voltage drop and improper grounding.
The model has a problem node – a completely plastic (even a ball inside) make-up tap. When it breaks down after 1–3 years, they will replace it with the same relative for 3–4 thousand, while others do not fit.
Verdict. According to reviews, the model has the same problems as in the Bosch Gaz 6000 W WBN 6000-24 C. Power surges or grounding lead to a stable error on the monitor. Half of the users believe that the boiler is not worth the money, they advise buying Vaillant turboFIT VUW 242/5-2, in which such problems are solved in a civilized manner by the service department, and errors themselves rarely happen.
BAXI ECO-4s 24F
Compact dimensions, full adaptation of the model to the specifics of Russian production lines, climatic conditions. Stable operation at low gas pressure, during power surges, enhanced coolant circulation at low temperatures. The price is 34 thousand rubles.
Pros:

Simple, affordable work management.
Fully automated mode of operation.
Minuses:
High price of spare parts.
You need a voltage stabilizer.
Filters are needed to soften hard water.
Verdict. The model is designed for residential, industrial and office premises. According to reviews, the manufacturer did not fully adapt the model to Russian conditions. Many people buy additional stabilizers, complain about the need to “pierce the heat exchanger pipes” from hardness salts. The same Bosch Gaz 6000 W WBN 6000-24 C runs on hard water without problems.
Vaillant turboFIT VUW 242/5-2
The German brand supplies a model with a turbocharged dual-circuit functionality, forced exhaust removal, with a built-in three-stage circulation pump, with manual stage switching. The price is 36900 rubles.

As in Buderus Logamax U072-24K, weather control.
Two diameters of the coaxial chimney.
Minuses:
Very expensive to maintain. Spare parts – from 5 thousand rubles.
Setting the room temperature sensor – only through service workers, you can’t set it up yourself, complete insanity (according to reviews), which is not in either the BAXI ECO-4s 24F or the Buderus Logamax U072-24K.
Verdict. An excellent boiler in terms of build quality and adaptation to changes in technological lines. Quickly heats rooms, hot water instantly heats water. Can be installed in “green” areas, according to the type of environmental friendliness, it belongs to the highest class due to the smoke extraction and retention system. The downside, as in the previous BAXI ECO-4s 24F model, is expensive maintenance, the high price of consumables and spare parts.
Viessmann Vitopend 100-W A1JB010
Boiler with built-in weather-dependent automatics, with programming of work by days of the week, improved design of the chimney. The price is 41300 rubles.
Pros:
White backlit digital display.
Weather automatic.
Electronic control with programmer.
Easy access to all nodes and parts.
Minuses:
Long delay (5-7 seconds) until hot water is dispensed.
Incorrect DHW algorithm, draft in the chimney supplies gas for 2-3 seconds, so water is supplied with a temperature of 25 to 500unpleasant to take a shower, but you can not reconfigure.
Verdict. The model, judging by the majority of reviews, is not worth “their” money. The filling is outdated gas valves and three-way assemblies. Unreliable Deshman control board, terrible operation algorithm. If you choose a “German”, then it is better to take the most reliable and proven Bosch Gaz 6000 W WBN 6000-24 C.

In this article, I will tell you how to choose an air ionizer in 2022. You have probably noticed how easy and pleasant it is to breathe in the mountains, in a coniferous forest, near the sea or a waterfall. The reason is a large concentration of negatively charged particles – ions of natural origin. At the same time, in poorly ventilated rooms, with a large number of functioning office equipment and household appliances, performance drops sharply over time. The reason is an excess of positively charged particles in the air – cations. Installing an ionizer will optimize the ratio of negatively and positively charged particles in the room.
What is the use of an ionizer
The presence of a large number of negative ions can significantly improve the processes of gas exchange occurring in the human lungs. This causes an improvement in metabolism and strengthens the immune system, accelerates tissue regeneration (wounds heal faster), improves sleep, the condition of the skin and, in general, the well-being of a person. But the main effect is associated with the respiratory system – the risk of ARVI and asthma decreases, as well as the manifestation of allergic reactions.
How an ionizer works
Regardless of the design, the very principle of operation of the ionizer remains the same – it is based on a corona discharge. A high voltage with a negative charge is applied to an electrode with a large surface curvature (for example, a plate with needle-like spires). A corona discharge occurs at the tip of the electrodes, as a result of which ions are formed. The resulting flow of ions flowing down from the electrode spreads throughout the room. At the same time, particles of pollution and dust particles contained in the air, being charged, settle on the plates of the ionizer. As a result, purified ionized air comes out of the device.
Varieties of ionizers
Some models of air ionizers may contain additional features. For example, an ionizer-purifier has a built-in filter that purifies the air – this combination can significantly improve indoor air quality. If the room is very dusty, then you should purchase a device with a built-in HEPA filter. If the dust level is relatively low and you want to save on filter replacement, then you should opt for ionizers with an electrostatic filter. It is reusable, easy to clean and has a good air filtration rate.
Another example is an ionizer-humidifier, such a device will provide an ideal microclimate in the room. Such a combination of devices will save space, which is very important for an apartment, while maintaining the quality of work. The air humidifier itself can be of a very different type – air washer, ultrasonic, etc.
However, there are monofunctional air ionizer models that are optimized to work in specific conditions. For example, an air ionizer for a car that is powered by a cigarette lighter is recommended for drivers who spend a lot of time behind the wheel. Another model is suitable for those who work for a long time at the computer, which is a fairly powerful source of positively charged particles. To neutralize their effect and increase the concentration of ions, you can use a small USB air ionizer. It is very compact, comparable in size to a USB drive, the so-called flash drive, and is powered by a standard USB port.
Another option for an ionizer is a salt lamp. It is a low-power incandescent lamp, on which a layer of natural salt crystals is applied. When heated, the salt begins to emit negatively charged ions. It can be a spherical lamp or a lamp set in raw stone. Despite the decorative appeal, such salt ionizers have one significant drawback – low power and, as a result, create a low concentration of ions.
Important:
The most famous ionizer is the Chizhevsky lamp, but you should not buy it for a house / apartment. After all, this is a medical, not a household appliance, its use must be strictly dosed.
How to choose an air ionizer for an apartment
First of all, before choosing an air ionizer for an apartment, it should be noted that its use has a number of limitations. First of all, doctors do not recommend installing it in rooms where there is a child who is not yet one year old. In addition, the installation of ionizers for people with cancer is contraindicated – as mentioned above, ions improve metabolism, which can cause accelerated growth and reproduction of cancer cells. Some people have individual intolerance to aerons.
Before proceeding to the assessment of the main parameters of the ionizer, one should deal with one fairly common misconception: an ionizer cannot replace a humidifier. Just like an air humidifier performs completely different functions than an air ionizer, maintaining an optimal level of humidity.
Bipolar or unipolar
Depending on the type of ions produced, ionizers are bipolar (produce positive – cations and negative – anions) and unipolar (generate only anions). There is no consensus among experts as to how justified the choice of a bipolar ionizer is. It is believed that the natural, most harmonious ratio of negative and positive ions in the air should be 3:2. But at the same time, a large number of household appliances are a source of a large number of positively charged particles. Therefore, for office premises it is optimal to choose a unipolar ionizer, moreover, it is much cheaper. But for a children’s room with a minimum of household appliances, a bipolar ionizer is better suited, even though such models are quite expensive.
Performance
It can be specified in two ways. The first is the created concentration of ions per cubic meter of the room, optimally this value is from 10 thousand to 20 thousand ions per cubic centimeter. The second option – indicates the area for which the ionizer is designed, while the calculation of performance is performed for rooms with a ceiling height of 2.5 meters.
Emitter voltage
It should be between 20 kV and 30 kV. An indicator below the recommended level cannot provide continuous production of ions. Voltage over 30 kV is not recommended according to electrical safety rules. In addition, at this voltage, active generation of ozone begins, whose high concentration can be dangerous.
Noise level
Depends on which ion propagation method is used. With active, a fan is used, which becomes a source of noise, with passive, ions propagate on their own. Passive air ionizers are quieter and cheaper, but they have a significant drawback – the uneven distribution of ions throughout the volume of the room. A negatively charged particle is unstable, it tends to recombine by adding a positively charged particle. Therefore, in the immediate vicinity of the ionizer, the concentration of ions will be high, but they may simply not “get” to the far corners of the room (especially if it is large). An air ionizer with a built-in fan has a higher noise level, but at the same time provides a more uniform distribution of ions throughout the entire volume of the room.

Electrolux has been on the Russian market for a long time and has established itself as a high-quality and reliable manufacturer. The Swedish company produces a huge number of household appliances, and dishwashers are no exception. The article presents the TOP-5 Electrolux brand dishwashers that are popular among buyers in 2022.
Electrolux ESL 94200LO
Budget model with limited functionality, but performs important actions perfectly. Large pots, pans and baking sheets can be placed in the hopper. There is also a separate compartment for cutlery. At the bottom of the hopper there are shelves for plates, and in the upper container there are special rubber holders for attaching cups and glasses. There is no “beam on the floor” function that allows you to monitor the washing process and know the remaining time. Equipped with a condensing drying mode.
On the door is a container with two cells that are designed for detergent and rinse aid. There is also a salt compartment, but it is located at the bottom of the dishwasher.
High level of security. In case of any depressurization, a special sensor will automatically detect a malfunction and block the water supply. However, the dishwasher does not have such a function as a “child lock”.
The model has a useful “water softening” function, with which you can adjust the level of hardness. There are no functions such as double rinse, disinfection and delayed start.
Advantages:
low cost;
good washing quality;
durability;
high level of security;
availability of functions for economical consumption of resources.
location and layout of elements in the bunker.
Flaws:
lack of additional functions;
noisy work;
inconvenient location of the basket for plates.
Electrolux ESF 9453 LMW
The main difference is a sink for 9 sets. The hopper is designed for washing large dishes, such as a frying pan, a saucepan or a baking sheet. There is a special compartment for glasses, respectively, there is a function of washing fragile glass. All shelves in the hopper can be adjusted, which is convenient when loading non-standard dishes
Built-in 6 functions for different degrees of washing. Depending on the mode, the consumption of water and electricity will vary. You can also set a default program so that it starts as standard when you turn on the dishwasher. Drying takes place with the help of condensation, but unlike the ESL 94200 LO, on this model, after washing, the door of the hopper automatically opens by 10 cm. This reduces the drying time of the dishes. The dishwasher belongs to the freestanding class.
In addition to safety sensors, sensors are installed to adjust the water supply, depending on the contamination of cutlery. There is also a pre-soak. The function is very useful in case of stagnant dirty dishes.
On the body there is a display where you can customize the sink as desired. This model already has a “delayed start” function, in which you can set the required time for the automatic start of the dishwasher up to 24 hours.
The disadvantages of ESF 9453 LMW include the absence of a child lock, as well as the recommended detergent. According to customer reviews, PM washes dishes most effectively with the help of special tablets that cost a lot of money. When using conventional detergents, traces and smudges will often remain.
Advantages:
6 washing programs;
security sensors;
convenient bunker;
class of separately installed PM;
the presence of special shelves for glasses;
built-in function for washing fragile glass;
sensors for saving water and electricity when calculating the contamination of dishes;
automatic opening of the bunker door after washing;
the possibility of pre-soaking dishes;
delayed start function up to 24 hours;
presence of a display.
Flaws:
traces after washing with conventional detergents;
no child lock function.
If we compare this model with the ESL 94200 LO, then the difference will be in the number of functions, which affects the small difference in price. The build quality and security level are identical.
Electrolux ESF2400OH
The car is very popular, primarily because of its bright red color. It has a rather ergonomic appearance, and it is worth noting that this is not a PM built into kitchen furniture, so it can be installed anywhere. In keeping with the price, the ESF2400OH lacks some features, but for a budget model, the dishwasher is more than great.
On the case there is a display where you can set one of six dishwashing programs. In addition to standard programs, the dishwasher can independently recognize the degree of soiling of dishes and start the recommended wash. However, as standard for a budget model, there is no child lock on the buttons.
The level of security is at the highest level, so any water leakage will trigger a sensor and automatically block the water supply. What is the great privilege of the display is in the image of the error code, with which it will be possible to know the specific breakdown zone. The function will be very useful when starting a delayed start. The disadvantages include a small hopper, in which only 6 sets of dishes can be placed. Despite the small dimensions, plates with a diameter of up to 25 cm can be placed in the hopper. There are also special rubberized mounts for washing glasses. There is a special compartment for cutlery.
The dishwasher stands out for its small dimensions and can be placed on the table, but at the same time it loses in the number of simultaneous washing of dishes. Despite its small size, it costs like a standard model. For a small family of up to 3 people, this is a very convenient option, since the ESF2400OH does not take up much space and can be removed when not in use. Multifunctionality surpasses many budget models.
Advantages:
ergonomic appearance;
the presence of a display;
automatic determination of the degree of contamination of dishes;
delayed start function;
the presence of security sensors;
6 standard washing programs;
the possibility of washing fragile glass;
saving water;
the possibility of transportation around the house.
Flaws:
simultaneous washing of up to 6 sets of dishes;
high cost relative to capacity.
The dimensions of the Electrolux ESF2400OH dishwasher will be both an advantage and a disadvantage, depending on the requirements of the buyer.

In addition to 6 washing programs, there are 5 temperature modes. With the help of delayed start, you can set the sink up to 24 hours. Safety sensors will automatically block the water supply. Dish drying takes place in condensation mode, and after washing, the door of the hopper automatically opens, which significantly speeds up the process of drying dishes. Also on the ESL 98345 RO there is a water hardness sensor that will indicate the recommended settings to improve washing. Compared to budget models, there is already a beam on the floor, with which you can know about the duration of the washing cycle.
Also in the expensive model there is a salt indicator indicating its level. It is worth noting that here the car is quite economical.
In the bunker, almost all shelves stand out for their convenience, however, when reviewing the model, some buyers spoke negatively about the cutlery tray due to the inconvenience of their fence. Also, the dishwasher is demanding on the quality of the detergent. It is recommended to use special chemical tablets, which indicates additional expenses. When washing dishes in express mode, after ordinary detergents (especially powders), traces of smudges and small lumps often remain.
The Electrolux ESL 98345 RO model is built-in and has dimensions of 59.6x55x81.8 cm. Before buying, be sure to look at the dimensions, otherwise there may be installation problems.
