Owner reviews:
Let's find out what the owners of Bourgeois K boilers say about the experience of using them:
I would like to share my experience of using Bourgeois-K boilers. We use two T-100s to heat two two-storey houses. Each building has 12 apartments. The total load according to the calculation turned out to be about 180 kW for an area of 1000 m2, taking into account the heating main 160 meters long. We use wood as fuel. Loading every 6-10 hours approximately, per season firewood consumption is about 120 m3. We connect the second boiler only in winter, the rest of the time one is enough.
– Valery Nikolaevich, Omsk
For my country house with a veranda, I use the Bourgeois-K T-10A-2K solid fuel boiler. For an hour of work, it heats the heating system up to 60-70 degrees. You load a full furnace and half a day is free - very convenient. The boiler is used without a chimney sandwich, which was advised to be purchased in a store, the power was not affected. I even loaded freshly cut firewood - everything works fine.
– Igor Svetlov, Kostroma
I use "Bourgeois K" T-10A for heating wooden house area of 80m2. The insulation of the house is very good. Installed 6 radiators + heat accumulator for 200 liters. You have to heat only 2 times a day on average, and after the boiler goes out, the heat stays on for another 3-4 hours.

Back to indexI hasten to share the first experience of using the pyrolysis boiler Trayan T-20. There were no problems with connecting to the heating system, at the first start I used 10 kg of fuel briquettes + a little construction debris. The boiler worked on this tab for 7 hours, while the house warmed up well. You have to throw up about 2 times a day. Separately, I was pleased with the hot water supply circuit, when using it, the coolant temperature dropped by about 10%, but there is hot water for sanitary needs with a temperature of about 50 C.
– Igor Krylov, Moscow
Pyrolysis boilers of Russian production "Geyser"
The next place in our rating is occupied by the Kostroma manufacturer KZKO LLC. This company has been on the market for 7 years and has established itself in the production of solid fuel boilers of exceptional quality. Also, the plant produces various related products, stoves, barbecues, as well as utilizers.
Photo 3: Domestic pyrolysis combustion boiler "Geyser" The range includes both household and industrial pyrolysis boilers. Low-power models are also available as single-circuit, and with the presence of an additional DHW circuit (double-circuit):
For a long time I thought about which pyrolysis boiler to choose, re-read a bunch of forums, and finally decided to stop at the Geyser PK-10 10 kW brand. For my small country house, 70 m2 will do. My choice was dictated for the most part by the low price compared to other Russian-made analogues. While I am quite satisfied with the purchase, I have to throw firewood only twice a day. I'm thinking of installing a buffer tank to bookmark even less often.

On the this moment solid fuel boilers are very popular among the population. They are economical and practical. In addition, there is a large selection of Russian-made boilers, which allows you to save a little more. Our, far from being the easiest natural conditions, not all boilers can withstand. Russian options are designed specifically for this, and installation is a little easier.
domestic producers
Whatever the manufacturer, the principle of operation, design and operation of Russian and imported boilers are almost identical. The difference is only in the debugged process of burning fuel.
The best solid fuel boilers are made from cast iron. And for the manufacture of the heat exchanger, as a rule, stainless steel is used.
All Russian-made solid fuel boilers of long burning should be divided according to these indicators:
- Combustion - in Russian Federation solid fuel boilers are usually produced in the classic and pyrolysis style.
- Automation - the product functions autonomously. New products of many companies, for example, Teplodar or Termofor, are equipped with automation.
Combustion chamber - you can choose boilers with top or bottom loading. One of the most interesting solutions is a shaft-type boiler. They are quite unpretentious about the state of the fuel; firewood with a high moisture content (up to forty-two percent) can be used. - Fuel - many companies produce products on one fuel and also universal options. For example, Phantom boilers can consume any fuel during their operation. With the help of the automation system, the optimal method of operation is selected, suitable for a particular type of fuel. You can use wood, coal and similar fuels. Trayan boilers have the same indicators "on board".
- What the heat exchanger is made of - cast iron is practically not used in domestic appliances. This is due to the fact that companies are trying to use cheaper materials in production, such as stainless steel. As a result, we get cheaper options for our homes. However, there are models with cast iron inserts.
- Power - There are many examples to choose from. Representatives of high power are Geyser and Gasgen. BUT low power represented by the Bourgeois-K and Teplov series.
Complete set - this includes automation systems, comfortable handles, grilles, dampers and other sensors. You should find out in advance what is included in the package of a particular boiler. - The presence of a heating element - a set of modern new boilers has a built-in tubular electric heater. As soon as the mine runs out of fuel, the automation system gives a signal and the heater turns on. Since the fuel has run out, electricity is connected to the process of heating the house. Manufacturers Bastion, Termofor, etc. have such a function.
The domestic manufacturer almost completely removed cast iron from the design of heat exchangers.
The most popular models sold in the Russian Federation
Solid fuel boilers for long burning are produced by about a dozen companies. What indicators and factors influence their popularity:
- Price factor.
- Reliability and simplicity.
- Automation system.
- Reviews of ordinary users.
Given these factors and looking at the actual number of sales of such heating systems, we can draw the following conclusions:
- Equipment manufactured by Termofor and Bourgeois-K is the most popular equipment in the Russian segment. Teplov and the FBI are catching up with them.
- Manufacturers from Russia are constantly working on their models, releasing something new and modifying the old, which means that the rating can change quickly.
- You can choose models of the premium and economy series. The main thing is to decide on the choice, as well as the conditions of use.
- The popularity rating of domestic solid fuel appliances is changing very quickly and constantly. The main positions are currently divided - Termofor, Teplodar, Bourgeois-K.
How to make the right choice?
The choice is best based not on any brand and manufacturer (although this is also not an unimportant factor), but on the performance of the boiler:
For ordinary cottages and country houses, it is best to choose products that have a hob. We advise you to take a closer look at the models Kupper OK and Tashkent.
If you need to heat and heat a sufficiently large area of \u200b\u200bthe room, then it is better to choose Gasgen or Geyser equipment.
If you want to save money and are looking for anti-crisis equipment options with good technical performance, you should look at Special offers from the Thermofor company. The stainless steel in them has been replaced with a structural one, which allows to slightly reduce the price of the device.
When looking for a device with an automation system and increased security, models from Lavoro will fit perfectly. You should also consider options Bourgeois-K and Pragmatic.
Domestic companies have become more attentive to the quality of their products, safety and comfort. Prices are reduced without loss of quality and service life, which cannot but please ordinary buyers.
Equipment manufactured in the Russian Federation is subject to certification.
The main difference between Russian boilers and foreign analogues
Simple comparisons of indicators will help to understand the main difference between domestic and imported solid fuel boilers for long burning.
Modern companies from Europe have half a century of history behind them; over the years, production and technology have been brought to perfection. Twenty - twenty-five years is the usual service life for a simple Buderus boiler and thirty - fifty years for a cast iron product.
Domestic analogues have a shorter service life. But, the advantage of Russian equipment is unpretentiousness to fuel. Yes, and the price is almost 2 times lower.
On the market today you can find many models of solid fuel boilers. They can be pyrolysis or traditional, the latter running on sawdust, pellets, wood or coal.
Reviews about the boiler device
Any Russian-made solid fuel boiler has a furnace, which is a hopper; ash chamber, ash pan for collecting ash, water jacket, dampers, chimney, as well as outlet and inlet pipes. According to users, the boiler device may include automatic block control and fan. With the help of automation, you can control the circulation pump of the system, adjust the quality of the air supply to change the intensity of the combustion process, which will depend on a certain temperature regime. If you need a Russian-made solid fuel boiler, then, as buyers emphasize, maximum efficiency can be achieved with a slight excess of air and the smallest heat loss with flue gas exhaust. To do this, the chimney must have a regulator that is designed to mix cold air into it, this allows you to save the greatest amount of heat inside the equipment furnace. It is worth listening to the opinion of experienced users who emphasize that a cold chimney indicates a high-quality solid fuel boiler, the efficiency of which is quite high.
Availability of additional functionality
Pyrolysis boilers most often have an automatic circuit with a chain connected to the lower air supply window. The required volume of air enters under the grate to ensure fuel combustion. As soon as the firewood catches fire, the chain regulator will help close the lower window, eliminating excessive air supply to the combustion chamber. A Russian-made solid fuel boiler can also have manual adjustment, with its help you can reduce or increase traction by selecting a certain temperature regime.
If you decide to purchase a pyrolysis boiler, then first of all you should pay attention to the secondary air supply regulator with a combustion chamber. If such a regulator is present, it will allow ignition of the CO 2 generated during the combustion of the solid fuel. This can improve the efficiency of the equipment.
Steel boilers
If you want to buy a Russian-made solid fuel boiler, then it is important to consider that it is higher in steel equipment. Steel is a less brittle material compared to cast iron, for this reason steel heating units have the advantage of being able to give the combustion chamber a more complex geometric shape. According to buyers, this allows you to increase heat transfer, improve the efficiency of the boiler. It should be taken into account, however, that the cost of a solid fuel steel unit with a complex configuration of the combustion chamber will be higher.
Feedback on the method of loading fuel and the location of the boiler room
Before purchasing Russian-made, you should consider that not every model is suitable for specific conditions. The consumer should pay attention to how the fuel is loaded into the compartment. Most often, in cast-iron boilers, coal and firewood are loaded from the side. However, on the market you can find models that are characterized by top loading. For many consumers, the boiler room is located inside the house, in their opinion, this can create certain inconveniences. After all, you must take into account that when the heater door is open, smoke will enter the house. In order to eliminate this unpleasant factor, consumers recommend placing boilers with top loading in a separately built boiler room.
Reviews on the main characteristics of solid fuel boilers
On sale today in a large assortment you can find Russian-made, photos of which will help to get acquainted with them visually. When choosing this equipment, you need to take into account the area of \u200b\u200bthe room. According to reviews, for 10 square meters you need to choose equipment that will be able to generate 1 kilowatt of thermal energy. This indicator can be considered the norm if the following conditions are met. The ceiling height should not be more than 3 meters, the quality and quantity of windows should comply with existing standards. The residential building should be well insulated, which will help reduce heat loss.
A Russian-made solid fuel boiler for a home must have a power equivalent to 20 kilowatts, which is true if the area of \u200b\u200bthe house is 200 square meters. At first glance, it may seem that all the requirements of the above conditions are met, but there is one factor that should not be forgotten. According to users, if the equipment is chosen correctly, and heat losses and buildings meet all the norms and requirements, then in the cold season, in order to maintain the desired temperature, it will be necessary to throw firewood into the firebox, doing it all the time, you can’t call it convenient.
In order not to encounter such difficulties, it is recommended to purchase a boiler with a certain power reserve. For example, for a power of 20 kilowatts, it is best to choose a boiler that will be able to produce 40 kilowatts of thermal energy. The intensity of combustion is controlled by a manual regulator or automatic, which provides oxygen to the combustion chamber. When choosing Russian-made, which are supposed to be installed in a large boiler room, in some cases it is necessary to use it mounted between the heating system and the boiler. As users emphasize, during operation, the equipment will heat the water that accumulates in the heat accumulator, and after the end of work, it will be supplied to the heating system.
Not everyone settlements are supplied with natural gas, so you have to look for alternative heating options.
Today there are quite a lot of them, but at the same time electricity or diesel fuel are quite expensive, so most often consumers choose solid fuels.
A large number of devices work on it, but not all foreign models correspond to our climatic conditions, so domestic products are in greatest demand. It is represented by various enterprises producing solid fuel heating boilers of our own, Russian production. And each of them has its own characteristics, which will be discussed below.

Imported solid fuel boilers are better than domestic analogues! Recently, this statement is no longer indisputable. Modern Russian models, in addition to meeting the standards in force in the EU countries, they are also adapted to domestic operating conditions, unpretentious in terms of fuel quality.
Before choosing a Russian-made solid fuel boiler, you will need to answer several important questions:
- Which of the Russian manufacturers manufactures solid fuel heating units.
- Which boilers are most popular with domestic consumers, and how this can affect the choice.
- The main differences between solid fuel boilers of domestic and foreign production.
Domestic manufacturers of solid fuel boilers
The principle of operation and design of domestic and foreign boilers are almost identical. Regardless of the manufacturer, the scheme of operation of solid fuel units is the same. The difference lies in the thoughtfulness and smoothness of the combustion process.The highest quality Russian-made solid fuel boilers are made of cast iron. But, in most cases, for the production of a heat exchanger, high-quality stainless steel is used.
The entire range of products of domestic manufacturers can be divided according to the following criteria:
Domestic companies have almost completely abandoned the use of cast-iron heat exchangers, therefore, the buyer is mainly offered Russian-made steel pyrolysis solid fuel boilers.
What solid fuel boilers are the best-selling in Russia
Single-circuit household Russian solid fuel boilers for long burning are produced by more than ten different manufacturers. The popularity of products is influenced by several factors:- Price.
- Reliability.
- Automation of the combustion process.
- Consumer reviews.
- One of the best-selling models among the range of domestic pyrolysis solid fuel heating boilers is the Bourgeois-K and Termofor equipment. The models Teplov and F.B.R.Zh. are practically catching up with them in popularity.
- The main Russian manufacturers of solid fuel boilers are constantly releasing new modifications with an improved design, so the popularity rating is constantly changing.
- In addition to the "premium" series, Russian companies offer "budget" models of heating equipment suitable for country houses.
What brand of domestic solid fuel boiler is better to choose
The choice of a solid fuel heating boiler from a domestic manufacturer is best based not on a specific manufacturer (although this factor also matters), but on operating parameters and technical specifications equipment:
There are positive trends associated with the production of solid fuel boilers in Russia. The domestic manufacturer began to pay more and more attention to the quality of manufactured equipment, comfort and safety of operation. Leading companies focus on reducing the cost of their products, without a significant loss in quality and service life.
All equipment manufactured in Russia undergoes mandatory certification and receives a permit for operation in Rostekhnadzor.
What is the difference between imported solid fuel boilers and Russian ones
Comparative characteristics of domestic and imported solid fuel boilers help to understand the main difference between the products of Western and Russian manufacturers.Thanks to more than half a century of history, some European companies, the production process has been worked out almost to perfection. The life of the boilers Buderus, Wiesmann, OPOP and Atmos is approximately 20-25 years (for models with a steel heat exchanger) and 35-50 years (with a cast-iron structure).
Russian boilers will work less. The advantage of domestic equipment is unpretentiousness to the quality of the fuel used. Gas-generating models are able to use firewood and wood waste with a moisture content of up to 41%. There are Russian boilers, almost two times cheaper.
As statistics show, the share of solid fuel units of Russian manufacturers is only 30-40% of the total number of purchased products. The main number of sales falls on boilers of well-known German and Czech brands.
