Varieties of Lemax boilers
Most of the products are floor boilers. They are in great demand among consumers and are bought for private homes because of their high power and reliability.
It is more convenient to install wall-mounted devices in the apartment. Their operating principle is based on the operation of the burner, which is built into the housing. She heats the heat exchanger. Circulation is natural or forced.
Gas floor heaters are available with the following types of heat exchangers:
- Of steel. The thickness is 2 mm.
- Made of cast iron with a thickness of 4 mm. It is considered the best heat exchanger for a single-circuit Lemax heating boiler.
Devices differ in power, functionality and control method.
Boiler installation and adjustment
In order for the Lemax boiler to function without problems and breakdowns, it is important to install and connect it correctly. The installation should be entrusted to professional workers, especially if the user does not have the skill to connect heating equipment.
The main installation requirement is the provision of intensive removal of combustion products. The manufacturer recommends connecting a draft device made of sandwich pipes to the chimney.
Launching and connecting is quick and easy. The factory settings are suitable for operation; they can be adjusted mechanically.
The gas valve plays an important role in the automation unit.This is a device that controls sensors or controllers that receive information from sensors. The product may consist of two valves - a conventional and an electromagnetic one. When you start the second opens by pressing the button to ignite the wick. Then the user can release the button. When the igniter is blown, the thermocouple cools down and the valve closes. The other spring valve closes after a signal from the draft and temperature sensor.
Common problems
When working with equipment, malfunctions can occur. The main types of malfunctions include:
- Problems with heating water. The device cannot dispense the required amount of liquid. To prevent this situation from happening, it is recommended to buy a single-circuit boiler and connect an indirect heating boiler to it separately.
- Spontaneous shutdown of a torch. Caused by problems with traction or damage to the temperature controller.
- The smell of gas. Leaks can occur due to poor gaskets in the joints. Their replacement is required.
- The appearance of a long red flame. Caused by insufficient draft or clogging of the burner.
- Cooling the battery when the boiler is hot. Little coolant or incorrect installation.
The main problems associated with the equipment are listed. You can fix them yourself. Complex failures need to be trusted only by specialists.
In case of problems with the traction sensor, you need to replace it with a new one. The item can be bought at any specialized store. If the problem is with the pilot light, you need to reconfigure it. Information on adjustment can be found in the instructions.
