Gas boilers from the Russian manufacturer Conord are distinguished by optimal technical characteristics and are suitable for any heating system. All brand devices have a long service life, they are reliable, do not cause problems during operation and during installation. Before choosing a suitable boiler, it is worthwhile to study the current range of devices and their main advantages. It is also useful to find out the rules for using brand boilers and familiarize yourself with safety precautions.
Manufacturer information
The KONORD plant is considered one of the largest enterprises in the production of heating and boiler devices in Russia. The manufacturer has been on the market since 1979 and currently has a reputation for manufacturing high quality products. This includes boilers for domestic use, including universal, gas and solid fuel, water heaters, AOGV, as well as burners and pellet boilers.
The brand's equipment meets European quality standards and is presented in a wide range, the model range of which includes more than 50 items. It is produced in Rostov-on-Don from galvanized metal and other materials, using high-quality polymer coatings. Products of the brand retain their ideal appearance for many years and are able to work without interruptions, subject to the instructions for use and safety regulations.
Model range of boilers Conord
The Conord heating boiler is considered one of the most demanded devices in comparison with gas equipment from other brands. The line includes devices of four series, among which there are practically no wall-mounted models of boilers, since for home consumers most often purchase floor-standing options. Boilers of each series have their own characteristics that should be studied before buying.
- KSC-G-S. This series includes single-circuit boilers with a functional regulator for gas supply. They are equipped with a built-in automatic system made in Italy, which guarantees the safety of the devices and a long service life. Boilers of this type are suitable for areas from 80 to 300 square meters, have an operating pressure in the range of 0.2-1.9 bar, and a heating temperature from 60 to 90 degrees.
- KSC-G-N. Devices with this marking or KS t R are more functional and operate on a heat exchanger made of cold rolled steel. The series includes single-circuit boilers designed for heating areas with an area of 100 to 300 sq. M. The devices can withstand pressures up to 5 bar and are equipped with thermohydraulic automatics.
- KSC-GV-S. This series includes the most popular double-circuit floor-standing gas boiler Conord. All models with this marking have an additional circuit for hot water, are equipped with the Italian SIT automatics and allow heating rooms with an area of 120-300 sq. M. Such boilers not only warm up the house, but also allow you to always have a supply of hot water available, unlike parapet boilers of level 11.6 or 16.
- KSC-GV-N. Devices with this marking are considered the safest and most reliable. Among them are two-circuit boilers with specially shaped smoke collectors and thermo-hydraulic automation. In such boilers there are special detectors capable of stopping the gas supply if there is a threat of explosion.These devices are able to independently stabilize work in the presence of short-term reverse thrust. Their power does not exceed 12-30 kW.
Prices for brand boilers start at 15 thousand rubles and reach 48 thousand. For this price, consumers get easy-to-use devices with excellent build quality.
Specifications
All Conord boilers have standard characteristics that vary slightly depending on the specific model. The term of their operation under the guarantee does not exceed three years, the total service life is at least 10-15 years. Devices with cast iron heat exchangers can serve for at least 25 years. In most of the brand's boilers, heat exchangers are made of cold-rolled metal, so the devices are resistant to thermal deformation.
Each solid fuel or gas boiler of the brand operates on the same coolant - tap water. This is a convenient option for those who need household equipment that can heat the room and simultaneously heat the water. When operating all boilers, the manufacturer does not recommend using antifreeze, and also advises using equipment with a circular pump if necessary.
The main advantages of Konord boilers
Conord gas boilers have many advantages. Most of the models are of the floor type, which allows them to be placed at home in various conditions. Each device is made of steel with a thickness of at least 3 mm and covered with protective enamel. All units have an efficiency of at least 90% and have a long service life. Buyers also note the good energy independence of the devices and their affordable cost. All gas-type boilers are presented in several modifications, they can be supplemented with the option of preparing hot water or not.
Models are equipped with thermohydraulic automation or SIT functionality. Devices of the first category are non-volatile, fuel is supplied to and switched off by a thermostat. The boilers are suitable for any climate, including cold or mild winters, the temperature in them can be maintained at the required level if the power is calculated correctly. The efficiency of the boilers remains high thanks to a high-quality burner, which creates good thermal insulation and an optimal level of gas and air mixture.
Each device has several protection functions
- flue gas sensor, which is triggered in the event of a lack of traction or other malfunction and turns off the gas supply;
- control of the presence of a flame on the main burner;
- temperature control in the heating circuit.
Conord devices can operate on low pressure fuel and have different power levels. When choosing a suitable unit, the area of the room for heating is taken into account and the power is calculated by the number of square meters.
User's manual
To avoid loss of warranty, the manufacturer does not recommend installing and repairing boilers on their own. This can only be done by specialists with special qualifications for working with gas equipment. Service workers will be able to qualitatively install and configure the boiler, turn it on and test it, check its performance. After installation, they must make an entry in the passport, after which the boiler operation is prevented once a year. After each prophylaxis, a corresponding mark is made in the technical passport. In the absence of entries in the document, the manufacturer has the right to void the warranty.
Possible malfunctions
Gas boilers with a valid expiration date rarely cause problems, but sometimes malfunctions may occur during their operation. It should be borne in mind that it is advisable to use the devices in the cold season with the maximum duration of operation. For the summer period, it is better to turn off the heating circuit, for this it is enough to turn off the tap at the inlet of the heat carrier.
With only one working burner, the water will heat up to 60 degrees in one hour. In the event of a further lack of water consumption, it will only last for a few hours for small household and private needs. Sometimes boilers can go out for no apparent reason, this can happen for the following reasons:
- The burner is dirty and cannot be started - in this case, the nozzles must be cleaned with a special vacuum cleaner or brush.
- The pilot burner is short of air and needs to be fired - to eliminate the problem, the supply nozzles are cleaned to improve ventilation.
- The thermostat contacts have oxidized and need to be cleaned.
- Flame and draft detectors do not work, they cannot be ignited.
Sometimes the temperature of the heat carrier inside the system drops dramatically. To solve this problem, it is necessary to move the thermostat switch to the maximum value or increase the gas supply to the burner.
In general, buyers leave positive reviews about Conord boilers and note their high quality. The brand's products continue to be one of the most popular on the Russian market due to their optimal characteristics and long-term operation.
