The flow device can be:
- Pressure type. The force of pressure depends on the pressure in the line. Can provide multiple points.
- Non-pressure. The equipment is installed near the fence point on a hill. Can be used without plumbing.
You can pre-select the volume of the storage boiler depending on your needs. For example, for installation near the washbasin, 15 liters will be enough. For a family of three to four people, take a shower, choose a volume of 100-150 liters. Tanks of 200-300 liters are suitable for country houses or catering establishments.
The assortment of the Buderus trademark is divided into two groups according to the type of food:
- Boiler in combination with double-circuit boiler. Heating in the tank is carried out by connecting to an autonomous boiler. This is how the DHW heating system and household needs are provided. Read in a separate article how to make a boiler piping.
- Electronic type heater. It is connected to cold and hot water, electricity. The work is carried out at the expense of the heating element. The magnesium anode protects the tank from corrosion.
The choice of technique depends on several factors. The main one is the presence or absence of a gas pipeline. If the main line is not installed, then it will not be possible to install a gas boiler, it is better to choose indirect heating.
