Individual gas heating in the apartment reviews. Autonomous heating: gas convector. Features of the gas heating system

Not every public utility can boast of good or even sufficient heating quality. There are many reasons for this, both objective and subjective, but the result is the same - heating an apartment becomes a personal matter for its owner. You can solve this problem using additional sources heat - oil radiators, convectors and so on, or major: install autonomous system heating your own home.

Victor is a great host and very good man. The apartment itself has a very high standard, and the location is great - right in the center. We were a little unlucky that the entire building was undergoing maintenance, which meant no hot water or heating. Even though it was not his fault, Victor provided us with another apartment and actually upgraded us - another very high standard and large apartment. I definitely recommend both Victor and his apartments.

Very beautiful, well furnished apartment in the center of Kyiv. Everything is just a few steps away. Amazing place, nice and clean apartment. This is a very neat apartment in a very secure neighborhood right in the middle of the city. There is a bedroom upstairs and a bedroom downstairs if you prefer not to climb stairs all the time. Excellent location, comfortable, clean, modern, bright apartment.

Autonomous heating: pros and cons

The independence of the system is its main advantage. All advantages and disadvantages are consequences of autonomy.

The disadvantages of autonomous heating are associated with the fact of its installation and the need to independently take care of its normal functioning.

This place is located in the perfect location if you want to experience the local atmosphere! Awakening to almost anyone! Fantastic place in the center of Kyiv. At night you can enjoy the musical fountain from your balcony! Valentina was very interested in us, the location of the house is amazing, the furniture is modern.

Amazing place next to the main Maidan square. Beautiful apartment with 3 TVs, a sauna and 2 large beds. Easy to walk to nearby cafes and shops. Very modern and clean apartment in a great location for all activities. Close to the busiest streets but still quiet.

Installation - all elements of the system are purchased independently, installed with your own hands or with the help of specialists. The initial expenses are quite significant. The photo shows the working moment.
Installation of a heating system involves partial destruction of wall partitions, integrity of floors, and so on. Most likely, after this the home will have to undergo at least cosmetic repairs.
Device repair and maintenance is carried out by representatives of service centers at different conditions. But in any case, paying for them is only the owner’s problem. Deciding whether this is a disadvantage or an advantage is sometimes difficult.
Installation of autonomous heating requires permission. Of the above, this circumstance is perhaps the most difficult and tedious, judging by the reviews. However, these requirements are not only a product of bureaucratic activity, but also help prevent the installation of illegal, uncertified equipment, which poses a serious danger to all residents of an apartment building.

The convenience and efficiency of any version of an independent system so much exceeds the cost of effort, time and money for its installation that there can be no two opinions: if the installation is fundamentally possible, then it is worth implementing it without putting it on the back burner.

The apartment is after a modern renovation, fully equipped with everything necessary for living. The bedroom has a double bed and the living room has a large double sofa. The apartment is located in the center of Kyiv, 4 minutes walk to the Gulliver shopping center. Bessarabian market, Arena City, Gulliver shopping center.

Clean and comfortable apartment located in a beautiful building in the city center between the main street of Kyiv - Khreshchatyk and the Golden Gate. Natural unusual and rare historical and educational. If you want to come to Kyiv and stay in the center of the historical city, welcome to my apartment. This best place for walking distance to all the main attractions of the city. Near the house there are many grocery stores, cafes, pubs, clubs, theaters and museums. The apartment has everything you might need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday.

Autonomous heating: water

The most common option for housing in an apartment building is water heating with a gas boiler as a heat source. There are several reasons for this.

As an option, an electric boiler can and is used. Its advantage is expressed in much simpler installation, significantly less permitting documentation, and it practically does not require preventive maintenance. The boiler takes up less space, the double-circuit version provides hot water. However, paying for electricity costs often nullifies all of the above advantages.

The apartment is located in the very center of the capital of Ukraine, on the famous street, and this is the best place for relaxation and walking. Well, I really have nothing to say. When our plane landed, we called Michael and he pulled us out of the airport as we had previously agreed. Nice chat on our trip to the apartment with Irina pointing out the sights as she drove past. The location of the apartment is excellent. The apartment itself is described in the same way. Everything was neat and clean. We had 0 problems with our stay.

Michael is very friendly, the apartment was very clean and comfortable. 2 minutes from the city center. everything was great. Unfortunately, we didn't spend much time with him, but we hope that this might change in the future. Michael's apartment is an excellent value for its location, which is almost unbeatable. Close to several metro stops, many shops and cafes in the neighborhood. At one point, the water also went out for almost the entire day, so there was water in the entire apartment. Michael seems very good guy, and he offered to pick me up from the airport.

Water is an accessible coolant with high performance heat capacity. When the system is turned off, the heat is retained for some time, providing time to organize alternative heating methods. The photo shows a water radiator.

The disadvantages of the system are the same as those of a conventional centralized water system: it takes time to warm up the premises, over time the pipes become clogged, which reduces the efficiency of the system, the material of the pipeline, radiators and boiler wears out, and the like.

Overall my stay at Michael's place was great. I had a very good stay at Michael's apartment. Large room, kitchen and bathroom, all very clean, high ceilings, very quiet since the window is in the courtyard and not on the street, very central 8 minutes walk from Maidan Square and 5 minutes from Underground Khreshchatyk. Michael is very reliable and easy to work with. Helps with all the information. Be careful: the entrance is not on Privozna Street No. 18, but in the same building on the side street No. 18, through the arch. Perhaps the name of this side street is Privozna.

The apartment is central, spacious and offers a lot for the price. Kyiv, Kyiv city, Shevchenkovsky district, Center, Ukraine. This lovely studio apartment is part of a new mini-hotel complex with three suites. The apartments have everything luxurious. Nice place, good for cables, good security but no smoking.

The second important drawback is that permission is required to use a gas boiler. The installation of the latter cannot under any circumstances be done by hand. Installation by non-specialists - “local craftsmen”, acting without the permission of the relevant organizations is not allowed. The fine for such arbitrariness is the least possible consequences, since improper functioning of the boiler poses a serious danger to others.
Very understandable regarding my delayed flight. Transfer to the airport was perfect and on time. Arnold met me very quickly and was very helpful. He gave me a brief introduction to the place and was positive when I needed to extend my stay in Kyiv. Very hospitable, polite and just very nice! You are also very close to the Maidan, many of the big cathedrals and great places to eat, drink coffee. I highly recommend Arnold and a great apartment.

Great apartment in a great location. There is a professional company that rents 50 apartments, and they are excellent at communication and are always ready to help. The place was beautiful, but some things were inconvenient, e.g. It is on the 5th floor with an elevator that may or may not be working. The lights above the bed didn't work and the shower in the bathroom didn't work.

Autonomous heating: gas convector

This option is more common in country houses, judging by the reviews, while it can also be used in apartments. It is based on the use of natural gas, but the heating scheme is somewhat different.

Great place to stay, close to the city center and apartments. Great stay at Arnold's apartment. The place is really nice and comfortable. Located in the center, near the metro station. The main room is magnificent and has two balconies. Location: this is the best place in Kyiv. You are just steps away from everything.

Wonderful apartment, perfect central location and a great host. Anna was very easy and efficient to deal with. It was a great place in a great location! A private room with all the amenities of an apartment. Breakfast and Internet are included in the price. Convenient and comfortable area of Kyiv, next to the Minskaya metro station. Near the house there is a beautiful beach and many places such as cafes, restaurants, shops, entertainment centers.

A gas convector or heater is placed directly in the room and heats the room “directly”: cold air is taken through the slots in the lower part of the device, heated in the heat exchanger and supplied to the room.

Advantages.

Since the room air itself is heated, that is, there is no intermediate link in the form of heated water, the room is heated much faster.
Again, due to the absence of an intermediate coolant, heating costs are lower: the air heats up faster and circulates faster.
Installation of devices is simpler - there is no need to lay a water pipeline and calculate the mutual influence of supply and return pipes.
The efficiency is quite large quantity models are higher than those of gas boilers.

In Anapa, houses are being built with both individual gas heating and central heating from the city boiler house.

There is an opinion that individual gas heating is more profitable for residents, more convenient in terms of the fact that the heating can be turned on when suddenly cold comes in the spring or vice versa, when in winter in Anapa the temperature rises to 20 degrees Celsius.

But besides the obvious advantages, individual gas heating, there are also some disadvantages that those who are interested in an apartment in Anapa need to know about.

Anastasia's place is in a great location and is a home away from home. If you're going to stay here, you'll feel right at home. Anastasia and her parents are very modest people. Anastasia speaks English well and understands. But if you know a little Russian, then you can also have a good time with your parents.

Ideal for those trying to learn a language. Great family and great location. Obolon is one of the most beautiful places with a beautiful view of the river. They helped me find out the place.

For clarity, we present the pros and cons of individual heating in the table

Pros	Cons	Solutions
The ability to regulate the heat supply at any time of the year at will Breakfast was very good. Anastasia knows a lot about the city and can be a great help. The place is close to the river and very close to a long "passage" along the river filled with beautiful buildings, cafes and restaurants. The apartment is clean and comfortable. Recommend this place to everyone. Nice owner, the apartment looked better than in the photo, necessary amenities, located in a beautiful and convenient location. A magical room in a two-story residential building on top of a historical building in Kyiv. Things that describe our home: clean, lots of plants, full of light. Creating a magical home has been our dream and we are excited to share our energy and creativity. Great area. Old city center. 2 floors. roof entrances. 2 bathrooms. Open kitchen. balcony. 4 rooms. He is now creating a public park and exploring furniture restoration.	The boiler takes up a lot of space on the wall and hardly fits into modern interiors.	You can try to insulate the balcony and move the boiler there.
There is no problem of turning off hot water for maintenance, etc.	Periodic inspection and maintenance of the boiler is required. This is usually done by Gorgaz or licensed companies. We love to treat our friends with different delicious things. We live in a great area where everyone can find inspiring things. All the experienced berries are here. From museums and parks to restaurants and supermarkets. District of the Kyiv artist Boge. Or maybe you are an architecture enthusiast? What a wonderful place with such kind and useful people. A short walk from the train station and metro. The apartment is simply gorgeous, comfortable and convenient for its location. This is truly an ideal place to relax in Kyiv. Vladislava and Jan are truly relaxed, charming and helpful. For solo travelers like myself it was great to have such a comfortable and relaxed place to come back to and they were always up for a chat. Very nice, large and bright room in a pleasant apartment. The metro is also a 15 minute walk away once you cross the botanical garden. Life in Kyiv is fun, lively and the people are very nice. Great place and value for money!
Receipts for apartment payments do not include expenses such as payment for hot water and heat.	Consumption increases cold water and gas, but financially it is more profitable than central heating
Heating system all year round filled with water, i.e. there is no problem of oxidation and corrosion of the internal surfaces of the pipeline and radiators. This increases the durability of the system. This is a great place to stay in Kyiv. It's beautifully laid out and has everything you could need. The atmosphere in the apartments is charming.

It is believed that any boiler equipment is sensitive to water quality and too hard water reduces the service life of the equipment	The issue with hardness can be solved by installing a softening system
Environmental friendliness. Boilers use a closed combustion chamber. The release of combustion products into the atmosphere complies with European standards; the vast majority of them exit into the ventilation, which is connected to the boiler's air conditioning system.	Gas boilers operate on natural gas. Since gas is considered an explosive fuel, there is a theoretical possibility that it will explode someday.	Gorgaz imposes increased security measures. The developer is given technical specifications for the installation of a specific model of boilers that have highest level safety and reliability.
Possibility of installing heating radiators anywhere in your apartment and in any quantity

But all this is a preamble. Let's look at how all these advantages and disadvantages apply to Anapa

In Anapa, many houses have been built with both individual gas and central heating. Therefore, it is enough to look at the reviews of the residents of a particular house in order to draw certain conclusions for yourself.

The main advantage that 90% of buyers of apartments with individual heating are chasing is savings on heating costs. In second place is convenience due to independence from city heating networks.

These two advantages often outweigh all the disadvantages listed above in the table. But there is one more disadvantage, which occurs only in resort towns. From 50 to 70 percent of apartments in new buildings in Anapa are bought up by people who do not plan to live here permanently.

What does this mean for those who move to Anapa for permanent residence? A permanent resident who buys an apartment in a building with gas heating will have to deal with the fact that neighboring apartments will be cold.

Moreover, cold is putting it mildly. Concrete cools down much faster than it heats up, and having frozen once, at the beginning of winter, it will become warm no earlier than the street temperature is stable at +20°C.

Not only is this in itself not very pleasant, it threatens that dampness and mold will appear in apartments without heating, which, in ways only known to it, can crawl into your apartment.

But for an enterprising person, this same disadvantage can also become an opportunity to earn money. All you need to do is get to know the owners of the empty apartments. In the summer, when they come on vacation, offer them to look after their apartments, keep them in order, and maybe rent them out for a small share for themselves.

It’s difficult to trust this to a stranger, but to a neighbor! The neighbor will probably be entrusted with the keys, at least I would be.

When you have 2–5 such apartments in your inventory, you will begin to think about scaling your business. With recommendations from your neighbors, it will not be difficult for you to do this.

Another significant disadvantage of individual heating in Anapa is the time it takes to connect it. The headache of shareholders who bought an apartment in a building with IGO (individual gas heating) can last for years.

Houses with IGOs that were connected to the gas mains in a timely manner can be counted on the fingers of one hand.

An important question that worries many who choose between individual and central heating is how much it costs to connect gas. It is difficult to name a specific amount; on average, for a boiler, its connection, installation of equipment, connection of radiators, it costs from 50 thousand rubles and more.

If we talk about the pros and cons of central heating, then among the advantages, I would include the complete removal of responsibility for whether you will be warm or not. When you have central heating this headache falls entirely on the operating organization.

And if suddenly the heating is delayed even for a day, you can go in righteous anger to destroy the office of the management company and the Anapa administration building along with it.

Residents of houses with central heating are not familiar with problems with boiler breakdowns and their expensive repairs. All equipment is heating radiators, which in the fall need to be vented to remove air pockets. That's all the preparation for the winter season.
