Reviews the gas water heater Neva Lux 5514

Virtues

  • - maintainability
  • - compactness
  • - good work with proper operation
  • - automatic ignition, ignites from the floor
  • - relative noiselessness (purely by itself)

disadvantages

  • price (could be cheaper)
  • installation (cold water inlet is very far from the back wall of the column)
  • the absence of a water temperature regulator (everything that does not contain a temperature regulator, i.e. a controller where it can be set, but contains only a gas supply adjustment knob, does not contain any support for a certain temperature regardless of pressure, this is deception)
  • I thought it was too thin copper plating on the heat exchanger, save

Comment
And now about the interesting. Everyone denounced this column that the imported ones are better and all that. I hasten to disagree, the main part prone to failure is a heat exchanger, and on a foreign car it will last a year or two more, but on the same foreign car the replacement of the heat exchanger is comparable to the price of the column and the delivery time starts from 2 weeks.
As for the problems arising during operation - the trouble is that no one reads the instructions and does not listen to the advice of a gasman who puts it all.
Basic principles:
- The chimney must be cleaned and there must be good traction. Let me explain: my column is in the bath, everyone naturally closes the door to the bath when washing, so that there is a draft in the door there should be a gap below, or there should be another ventilation well in the room that is not connected to the main chimney. This is not the case - accordingly, this leads to a poor load, or the column goes dead periodically or simply overheats, which leads to a rapid deterioration of the heat exchanger;
- water inlet pressure and the absence of overpressure at the outlet. Let me explain: when the old column was dismantled to me, I noticed that the pipes at the outlet (hot water) have a diameter of half an inch and inside on the floor of the pipe there is a deposit of scale, we get the pipes at the exit at 1/4 inch (the pipes were changed 11 years ago). total excess pressure at the outlet, poor transmittance, overheating of the heat exchanger;
- the gasman said it is better not to include cold water or limit its use, but to regulate it only with a hot water faucet, and moreover, that everything should serve for a long time, the pressure should be about 3/4 of the full opening of the faucet;
- one more nuance, everyone thinks that the more the hot water tap is opened, the hotter the water becomes. Wrong. Here, the opposite is true: the more you open the tap, the pressure becomes stronger, the water warms less, and vice versa - it decreases, the pressure drops, the water warms more strongly.
I think these rules will help many and there will be no such thing as the type of this guano nichrome does not work, it is impossible to adjust, you add hot pours cold

Virtues

  • Excellent worked the first 2 years

disadvantages

  • Very sensitive to battery voltage.

Comment
Bought in December 2010go. 2 years the column worked like a clock. Last year, it works very strange. Bad turns on. Sometimes it does not light up at all. Apparently it's time to repair.

Update: I replaced the battery and everything worked as before. I could not think of it at all, because changed a month ago.The new battery turned out to be half dead ((Apparently the batteries are no longer the same now ... Check with a voltmeter, do not trust brands.

Virtues

  • Works more than 3 years.

disadvantages

  • There is no automatic adjustment of the gas when the pressure changes. Those. if you take a shower, and someone will wash the water in the toilet or open a faucet in the kitchen, boiling water will shower you. But this is not a problem in a family of 2-3 people.

Comment
There were 2 problems.

1. Column turns off gas itself after 1-3 minutes.

2. The water has become barely warm - it is impossible to wash, but the water pressure has not decreased.

I changed the battery - it all worked. Ie 1 battery has worked for more than 3 years.

I recommend ANY REPAIR of gas dispensers with battery ignition - start with BATTERY REPLACEMENT !!!

Virtues

  • usability, durability, price

disadvantages

  • not

Comment
In my opinion, the column is very good, if it does not burn, then it depends on the pressure, but it is sometimes bad, and it is bought at a convenient price, we rarely change batteries, many people take it as an example, use it for 5 years and do not have any problems even at low heat the water is warm

Virtues

  • In comparison with import - the price. The rest of the charms are similar.

disadvantages

  • For 2 months was not. Noisy, but the price kills this flaw.

Comment
Used hitherto imported Bosh and Electrolux. 3-4 years and flies heat exchanger. Neva too. But the price of the Neva is half that. Also for parts. The only negative is louder than imported ones. For a month you get used to it.

Virtues

  • The price, the water is warm, not noisy, it looks not scary. Operated since January 2009.

disadvantages

  • Does not maintain the set temperature when changing the flow of water.

Comment
The battery, GP Super alkaline, is changed every two years. The water temperature is regulated only by the adjustment knob on the column, i.e. I do not open the cold water tap. Recently, there was a problem - a burner-based light up after 3-5 seconds after turning on the water, here in the reviews I found out that I need to replace the battery, I only changed the battery before when the igniter stopped lighting.
