There are three enterprises in Russia, the largest of which is located in Izhevsk. There is also a representative office in Moscow.
Among the regular customers there are various firms known in Russia and abroad. Ballu produces millions of models of climate control devices every year, including infrared heaters.
Features of technology
Ballu heating devices are actively used to regulate the temperature in apartments, private houses and cottages. They can be used on any size of the area. Among the areas of application are agricultural buildings, offices, greenhouses, open areas.
Depending on the type of work, several types of Baloo heaters can be distinguished:
- oil;
- converter;
- infrared;
- gas;
- halogen.
The most popular are infrared models. Fast heating is achieved due to the principle of operation and technical characteristics of the products. The devices heat homes and significantly save money due to infrared radiation. Its principle is that objects are heated, not air. There are no costs for senseless heating of air masses and fuel is saved.
Infrared models are especially suitable for rooms with high ceilings.
Main advantages
Various well-known companies are engaged in the production of heaters. But it is the Ballou technique that has become widespread in various fields. This is due to the following positive features:
- Wide range of models. You can choose a device for any you need to work in any environment.
- The ability to work effectively both indoors and outdoors.
- High structural reliability. Models are made of stainless steel, thanks to which rust does not form.
- High heating efficiency. The heating element is used as a heat source. Many models are equipped with a reflective surface to distribute heat evenly.
- Temperature control. Some of the products are equipped with a thermostat that allows you to maintain the temperature at a given value. This translates into significant cost savings.
- Ease of installation. No professional tool required for installation. The housing can be mounted on a wall, ceiling or other surface with clamps.
The buyer can get all the listed advantages for a small cost.The products also have a stylish look.
Features of oil coolers
The devices have a metal case, inside the second there is a tank with oil. It is heated with a heating element, after which it begins to circulate inside the radiator. Heat enters the environment through the housing.
The advantages of the models include:
- Mobility. The device is convenient to put in any place due to its size.
- Safety. The case does not heat up above 60 ° C.
- Quiet work.
- Lack of unpleasant odors.
- Does not dry the air. The user does not need to purchase an additional humidification system.
- Low price.
The disadvantages include the duration of heating and a small heating area.
Ballu produces three series of oil heaters. These include:
- Classic is the simplest heater with the number of sections from 5 to 11.
- Comfort is a classic radiator with a control panel.
- Modern - with increased heat transfer, thermostat, power consumption up to 2.4 kW.
The more complex the model, the more expensive it is.
Features of converter models
Such devices operate on the principle of heat exchange by air masses. Inside the radiator, air is heated, which goes outside and is sent to the upper part of the room. Warm air masses have a lower density, therefore they are located at a height above floor level. Then cold air enters the radiator, which is then heated and forced out.
The main advantages of Ballu home heaters:
- minimum of consumed electricity;
- high efficiency of the convector;
- uniformity of heat distribution.
Ballou produces the following series of converter heaters:
- Evolution - the simplest heaters with a power of 2000 W and a mechanical or electronic thermostat.
- Plaza - devices with LCD control panel, power up to 1500-2000 W.
- Camino Eco - budget devices with a mechanical temperature controller.
- Enzo is a heater with an air ionizer. There is parental control, as well as a system for the uniform distribution of warm air. An example is the Bec Ezer model.
- Red Evolution is a model with infrared and converter heating. Used in high humidity.
- Camino - appliances with the latest Double-U-Force components. They are distinguished by their economy. Additionally, different sensors can be built in.
The total cost of the product depends on the number of additional functions.
Infrared heaters
IR models have appeared on sale recently, but have already gained great popularity. They work from thermal energy of infrared radiation. This type allows you to heat only objects and surfaces, without wasting energy residues on heating the air. Ballu IR heater can be installed in ceilings, floors, walls.
The main advantages of Ballou Home heaters:
- heating rate;
- silent work;
- individual areas can be heated;
- wall and ceiling installation options;
- duration of operation;
- can be used in rooms with high ceilings.
The main disadvantages include fast cooling when turned off, limiting the time a person spends next to the radiator, and high price.
Ballu manufactures several series of IR heaters:
- Bali. They are mounted on walls, ceilings and special stands. Maximum power - 3 kW. Suitable for work in everyday life, garages, open areas.
- BIH. A dustproof housing is used. Due to its compact size, several devices can be used to create a single system.
- Infrared New, Red Evolution are the latest developments. They have a number of improvements that improve their performance.
It is better not to put an infrared heater Ballu in children's rooms. All recommendations for the place of installation are given in the instructions for the device. Popular models include bih lw, bih ap, bih l, bih lm.
Ballu gas appliances
Ballou gas fired heaters are considered to be high heat output equipment. They are distinguished by their efficiency, economy and safety.Also, the installation does not depend on the power supply, so it is convenient to use them in country houses and on the streets.
There are three series of gas models:
- Galaxy is a combined model with a converter air diffusion and a radiating ceramic panel.
- Universal is a long wave infrared gas device. It has a miniature size, so it is often used by fishermen and tourists. Includes adapters for connecting to a trunk system or a cylinder.
- BOGH - outdoor heat sources, are an innovative development of the company. They have a gas afterburner, arranged in the form of a glass flask with a height of 1 meter, thereby increasing heat transfer. An example of a model is an outdoor gas infrared fireplace ballu bogh 15.
The main application is summer cottages, cottages without constant access to electricity.
Halogen heaters
Such devices are used quite rarely and are presented in one Halogen series. The positive aspects include a low weight of about 1 kg, mechanical temperature control. They are used for heating an area of 5-15 sq.m. In industry, they can be found in drying wood and surfaces with paint or varnish.
The HALOGEN BHH / M-09 model is the cheapest compact modification of halogen heaters. Air humidification is not necessary due to the use of O2 SAFETY FYSTEM technology. There are two modes of operation, as well as overheating protection.
