Model comparison
Let’s summarize. We discussed the model lines of such brands:
- ATON;
- Conord;
- Lemax.
You will find a more flexible and advanced offer in the third position. This will be especially beneficial for those who are willing to spend a cost that exceeds the average for the market. This will play a role in durability and efficiency.
The first and second options are major players in the middle price segment. They are similar in terms of safety, the choice should be made primarily based on the allocated budget.
Leading Models
We chose three models that, in our opinion, broke into favorites:
- Leader-16 with GGU-19h from Lemax — score 5, estimated cost 33,500 rubles;
- Premium-10N from Lemax — score 4, estimated cost 19,500 rubles;
- KSts-G-25S from Conord — rating 3+, estimated cost 21,000 rubles.
The obvious leader is the first option, if the budget allocated for the purchase allows you to use this product — we recommend paying attention to this model range. The second representative of Lemax refers to a more budget option, but it is also effective. KSts-G-25S is a representative of a confident middle peasant, while being safe and reliable.
Brand rating
Calculating the average scores by adding 0.5 points per plus, we have the following rating:
Brand | Model 1 | Model 2 | Model 3 | Model 4 | Model 5 | Total |
Lemax | 3+ | four | 5 | — | — | 4.2 |
Conord | 3 | 3 | 3+ | 3+ | — | 3.2 |
ATON | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3+ | 3 |
Despite the results, we do not recommend writing off ATON from accounts. The brand’s lineup has consistently received confident triples, having an excellent combination of low cost, reliability and power. If you are looking for the most flexible offer — pay attention to Lemax.
Subtleties of choice
First of all, focus on power indicators. On average, there are 10 m2 of space per 1 kW of power. When the recommended area is less than the actual one, the heating will not be effective, otherwise the device will overheat, and reliability will decrease.
When choosing between steel and cast iron, keep in mind that cast iron can last longer. Its design implies a minimum possibility of damage during operation (at the same time, it is easy to damage it during transportation and installation if you are not careful). Ask your dealer what fuses are needed. Using them, you can protect yourself from breakdowns as much as possible.
Steel is more flexible and not easily damaged. At the same time, they are subject to the critical influence of corrosion processes and are marked by a lower level of reliability, which affects the service life.
