The Russian market of heating equipment is represented by a large number of various models, which are manufactured by manufacturers of different countries. Among them, a significant niche is occupied by Korean gas heating boilers. All models produced in this country are of high quality, safety and affordable price. And these characteristics allow the products to be competitive in a filled market.

Advantages of the equipment

Korean gas boilers are popular with buyers. And this is not surprising, given the fact that they have a number of advantages. Among them, consumers distinguish the following:

• A wide variety of models
• Attractive appearance.

• Moderate price (the price starts from 22 thousand rubles).
• High efficiency.
• The possibility of connecting the boiler to a source of liquefied gas (for this you need only replace the jets that are included in the delivery).
• Uninterrupted operation even with unstable pressure in the gas supply network.
• A high level of security will protect you from the occurrence of unpleasant situations, even if there are violations of the equipment of various kinds.

Korean boiler heating gas can additionally be equipped with a durable heat exchanger. This element has an increased ability to withstand the appearance of corrosion marks during operation.

Disadvantages of boilers

A Korean-made gas boiler can easily compete with other manufacturers' models. The quality of the equipment is given special attention. Therefore, it does not cause doubt among buyers.

But even Korean gas boilers have their shortcomings. The network of service centers in Russia is poorly developed. This can cause some inconvenience in the event of a breakdown. Difficulties can be in the purchase of failed parts. If such parts of the boilers of European manufacturers are interchangeable, then with the products from Korea this is not. Therefore, acquiring an Asian model, specify the terms of warranty (and post-warranty) service, as well as the addresses of the nearest service centers.
