6 best geysers Mora

Geyser “Mora” – a product of Czech production from the company MORA-TOP, which has been producing heating and hot water equipment for almost two hundred years. In the review, we propose to consider the most popular speaker lines of this brand, learn about their key characteristics and read the opinions of users. So you can conclude whether it is worth buying the Mora column or continue looking for products from another brand.

A little about the company

MORA-TOP began its 185-year history as a subsidiary of AS MORA MORAVIA. And only since 2003, Mora-Top has become independent. In the spring of the following year, the construction of the plant began in the Czech town of Uničov. The facilities occupied 5 “squares” and were built in less than a year, so that in the spring of 000 the world saw the first instantaneous gas water heater Mora, released at the new factory.

Today, the company has a fully established technological chain for the manufacture of equipment, including:

• Copper processing and heat exchanger technology, as well as stamping, degreasing, soldering and painting.
• Production of thermoelements for construction.
• Assembly of finished products within the assembly line.
• Mandatory testing of devices.

The main ranges of Mora speakers

Gas water heaters are represented by a number of lines, consider the most popular of them, dwelling on the characteristics of individual models.

VEGA MAX

VEGA MAX wall-mounted speakers have replaced the old Mora 370, 371, 5502 and 5502 devices. What is their main advantage: the connecting dimensions have not changed, so for those who have an old column that has already served its time, it will not be difficult to replace it with a new heater .

Suitable for both residential and non-residential premises with a heat output of 17,3 kW. The consumption in this case is 10 liters per 1 minute.

The heaters are equipped with high quality parts:

• Water-gas fittings Mertik – German production.
• Gas and pilot burners, Czech copper heat exchanger.

On a note! The copper pipes of the water heater are distinguished by a large diameter of 18 mm and a thick wall of 1 mm.

These devices are equipped with automatic support for the temperature regime of water, without reference to its volume. There are options both with piezo ignition and with electric ignition (from two accumulators / batteries of the R20 type at 1,5 V).

All gas appliances are highly safe, so if there is no water flow, the gas valve does not work and combustion products do not enter the room.

VEGA

The wall-mounted heater Mora Vega 10 and its “brothers” from the Vega line are positioned by the manufacturer as a completely new “star product”.

Interesting! The manufacturer’s website mysteriously states that Vega 10 is one of three bright stars (most likely, we are talking about three versions – 10, 13 and 16) that make up the summer-autumn triangle, and its brightness is many times greater than that of the Sun .

The minimum dimensions, combined with the ultra-modern design solution of the body, complemented by impeccable heater parameters, make these boilers one of the best among analogues that are on the market today.

Line advantages

• modest dimensions;
• ease of technical and user maintenance;
• full automation of work;
• resource saving up to 10%;
• Efficiency up to 92%;
• the most economical way to provide DHW (hot water supply);
• smooth regulation of power modes;
• maintenance of the water temperature selected by the user.

Device dimensions

• Height: for VEGA 10 – 59,2 cm, for 12 and 16 – 65,9 cm.
• Width: for VEGA 10 – 32 cm, for 13 and 16 – 40 cm.
• Depth: for VEGA 10 – 26,1 cm, in versions 13 and 16 – the same.

These are one of the most compact water heaters on the market, and also feature the smallest flue diameter of just 11 cm.

Level of comfort

• Gas-fired Vega 10 flow heaters are equipped with German fittings, thanks to which the equipment starts up already with a water flow of only 2,5 liters in 1 minute.
• This fitting provides for automatic maintenance of the set water temperature marks, which is especially important when the head (pressure) in the water supply network is unstable.

Economy parameters

Speakers such as Vega 10 have some of the highest efficiency rates in the world – almost 92%. A small but efficient heat exchanger heats the incoming water 15% faster than any similar device from another brand.

Reliability

Design solutions and innovations ensure maximum reliability of all MORA TOP units:

• The moving parts of the device are fenced off from the water environment, so leaks in not the most dense joints are excluded. In other devices, leaks are possible, which makes it necessary to replace the entire gas-water unit, and this costs a lot of money – sometimes up to half the cost of the entire device.
• Inside the heat exchanger in the tubes there are turbulators that repel scale from the walls of the unit, thereby accelerating heating and extending the duration of the device.
• The diameter of the heat exchanger tubes, equal to 18 mm, not only prevents salts from settling on the walls, but also helps to cool the walls of the entire assembly, eliminating overheating of the casing.

Security options

For safety reasons, the following points and design features are provided:

• Water overheating limiter in the heat exchanger.
• Combustion products reverse draft fuse – it will prevent mining from entering the room if the chimney is clogged.
• A special flame fuse that ensures the health of both burners (main and pilot).
• If there is no water flow, the device will not start the burner.

Additionally

Also, the units of the series are equipped with some technical solutions to facilitate operation:

• Piezoelectric ignition.
• The removal of waste combustion products through a chimney, which has a minimum neck diameter (gas) of only 11,5 cm.
• The possibility of using natural gas.

On a note! Units with an “E” prefix in their name, for example 10 E, are equipped with electric ignition.

See YandexMarket for more details.

As you can see, the manufacturer’s promises are big, and user reviews are mixed. But remember that the serviceability and durability of such a device is primarily affected by compliance with the rules of installation and operation.

If the installation was done incorrectly, and gross violations are allowed during use, not a single technique in the world, even the most high-quality and expensive one, can stand it. Whether it is worth making a decision to buy MORA TOP products based on user reviews is up to you. Good luck – read our other reviews.
