Gas burner Junkers miniMAXX WR 13G

Overall, it’s a good column; it served me for three years, after which its heat exchanger began to leak.
Disassembly showed that a crack had formed in it. This was the most serious malfunction, and for three years it worked properly. As it turned out, a flimsy heat exchanger is a disease of all geysers from this manufacturer. The fact is quite strange, considering that the trademark belongs to such a well-known company as Bosch. The verdict is this - if you are lucky with the heat exchanger, the geyser will last a long time. If you are unlucky, you will have to constantly solder the heat exchanger. Advantages:

• The absence of batteries allows you to get rid of unnecessary expenses, since ignition is carried out from a miniature generator rotating under water pressure;
• Solid appearance, no frills;
• Capacity up to 13 l/min, this is enough for a washbasin and shower.

Flaws:

• The heat exchanger is flimsy, leaks regularly and requires soldering. Moreover, soldering does not help for long;
• Sometimes it goes out for no apparent reason, which I have never been able to find.

How to clean a Junkers column with your own hands

Any repair work on gas consuming equipment must be carried out by a specialist who has the appropriate work permit.
Cleaning the pilot burner and heat exchanger is a job that you must not do yourself. Maintenance is carried out at your own risk. To clean your Junkers speaker at home you will need to do the following:

• turn off the gas and water supply;
• remove the casing;
• disconnect the smoke receiver and water unit;
• pull out the heat exchanger.

The water heater radiator is washed in warm water with the addition of any non-abrasive detergent using a stiff, long-bristled brush.
You can clean the wick and main burner using a special awl. Clean each nozzle, removing carbon deposits. Do-it-yourself repair of Junkers geysers results in the manufacturer’s refusal to provide warranty service for the equipment.

Geyser Junkers miniMAXX WR 10P

If the burner at the Junkers gas water heater does not light, it’s time to clean the igniter. I came to this conclusion after a year of fiddling with the miniMAXX WR 10P speaker. The device is not bad, but it is not without some shortcomings - and the burner is eloquent proof of this. I bought this speaker for reasons of economy, so I took the model with the minimum power, since I live alone, and usually either the faucet or the shower works for me. The column quickly heats the water and ignites without popping or roaring. I was pleased with the presence of overheating protection and a gas control system - this makes the speaker safer.

Advantages:

• Quick heating of water, no need to wait long for it to warm up;
• There are a minimum of controls, there are no unnecessary things, such as self-diagnosis systems;
• Extremely simple design, you can repair the device yourself, without calling a technician;
• No need to spend money on batteries.

Flaws:

• There are often problems with the operation of the igniter, but the burner itself almost never goes out;
• The manufacturer promised trouble-free starting with minimal pressure, but I would not say that it always starts - in the summer it starts after two or three attempts, when the water is barely flowing.

Information about the manufacturer Junkers

The German company produces several lines of water heating devices. The brand has been known since 1895, when Hugo Junkers opened a factory for the production of water heaters. The engineer was able to implement all the innovative solutions of the century before last, for example, in 1968, piezo ignition was introduced into the devices, and a little later, ignition from two elements.

Interesting! The German founder patented more than 200 different inventions, a record at that time.

Since the 19th century, it has been one of the leaders in the production of water heating devices for general purposes. At the end of the last century, the company introduced the first mounted combination boiler on the planet with a power regulator.

The Junkers geyser is one of the achievements in the field of the household industry, in which the company was able to implement all the innovative developments of our time. Today Bosch Thermotechnology is the largest manufacturer of heating and water heating systems.

How to light according to ignition type

Manual ignition

This method is already outdated and is used extremely rarely in modern speakers. Such devices are poorly protected both from changes in water pressure and from fire extinguishing.

It is currently not recommended to install such devices at home.

How to light a column with manual ignition:

• Unscrew the valve on the tap that supplies water to the column.
• Light the wick using a match or lighter.
• Open the valve on the tap supplying gas to the column.
• Sometimes, in order to ignite the burner, you need to wait a little until the air comes out of its channel. To speed up the process, first open and then close the hot water tap several times.

Piezo ignition

This option of igniting the column is more modern and widespread. It is very simple to use, but it has the disadvantage of increased gas consumption. While the column is not working, the wick is still smoldering inside it, so the gas, although in small quantities, is constantly burned.

How to light a column with piezo ignition:

• To start, you need to press a button that acts on the piezoelectric element. This will provide a spark to ignite the pilot wick.
• Open the tap supplying gas to the device.

The following video demonstrates this clearly.

Automatic ignition

This is the most modern and profitable option for igniting geysers. It is also called electric because it is based on the transmission of an electric spark. Its appearance is provided either by batteries or a hydraulic turbine. The combustion will be controlled by different sensors, and as soon as the user turns off the hot water tap, the ignition wick will go out.

How to light a column with electric ignition:

• Make sure that gas and cold water are supplied to the column.
• Open the hot water tap.

Watch a short video review.

The Junkers company existed until 1932. From that moment on, the company was purchased by Bosch Gruppe, which, however, did not affect the name of the water heaters produced by the division of the main office.

Junkers flow-through geysers are available in several modifications, differing in the principle of ignition, as well as the type of combustion chamber. Flow-through boilers operating using a pilot burner are popular among domestic consumers. The average service life of a Junkers column exceeds 15 years.

Junkers speakers - malfunctions and methods for eliminating them

German water heaters rarely fail. With regular maintenance, the likelihood of a breakdown is reduced to zero. The main malfunctions of the column are the attenuation of the wick and main burner, failure of the membrane, and the water unit. The described breakdowns are associated with low quality water and gas.

Descriptions of breakdowns and methods for troubleshooting Junkers geysers are given in the table:

Why one article at once about speakers from two different brands, Junkers and Bosch? At their core, the Junkers WR-11 and Bosch WR-10 speakers are the same speaker. They have slight differences in the body and handles. For example, on Junkers dispensers you can find a tap that is attached to a water block and is sold together with the dispenser. This is where the differences, in general, end. Inside the case there is the same filling. Both speakers are semi-automatic and have proven themselves well for their simplicity, maintainability, and the price of new products. They have been very popular in Russia for a long time. You can do the repair of these geysers yourself, using my step-by-step disassembly instructions.

How does this column work? In order to light it, you need to set the slider on the front panel to the middle position and press on it. Thus, we forcibly open the electromagnetic gas valve and supply gas to the igniter (wick) of the gas water heater. In order for the gas to ignite, it must be ignited with a piezoelectric element, which is located in the lower left corner of the gas column. After the spark has ignited the gas coming out of the wick (igniter), you must continue to hold the slider button pressed for 10 to 40 seconds. At this time, the column thermocouple is heated.

What happens when you open the hot water tap of the mixer? Everything else is simple. The membrane of the water block presses on the rod, which in turn opens the mechanical gas valve, and gas is supplied to the main burner of the Bosch (Junkers) column. The gas mixture is ignited by the burning igniter wick and heats the water, which flows through the radiator of the gas water heater.

Next, we will consider the procedure for disassembling Junkers and Bosch geysers for DIY repair, cleaning or maintenance. They are very easy to understand:

1.Remove the handle from the water block, set the gas regulator slider to the middle position, unscrew the two self-tapping screws from the bottom of the speaker body (on Junkers there may just be snap-clips) and remove the body.

2. Unscrew the two self-tapping screws securing the cap of the gas exhaust device to the body of the column and two self-tapping screws on the strip attached to the cap, which secures the radiator (heat exchanger) of the gas column.

The purpose of this article is to teach us to understand the operation of speakers. But articles are different. Moreover, it is not clear where they came from. Hence the Question: Why can the article be trusted?

In fact, to choose a gas water heater, due to the lack of information necessary to make a decision, we all start doing the same idiotic Internet thing, looking for reviews about gas water heaters.
The reviews we come across are quite varied, but for some reason they are very, very subjective. Sometimes they are just funny and written at a kindergarten level, like “Don’t mess with Natasha, she bites.” In general, we decided to take a risk and leave our reviews here. It is clear that reviews from spare parts sellers can be highly contaminated by the interests of any speaker seller. Which speaker is the best? Of course, which I sell - and there is no doubt about it. But we have found one option where the basis for achieving our mutual trust will be based on only one thing - knowledge
.
Nothing else. Knowledge on this issue is purely technical
. Now we will look inside the column and try to prove to you that we really know what we are talking about. And at this moment you will simply be nearby. The other way is simply false. Therefore, this article is a kind of result of research. Today there may be the only and best objective version for consultation in our store. Although, it may very well be in six months, we will gain additional knowledge and will tell the story a little differently. Knowing the modern technical level of the average buyer, we consider it our duty to warn that the article is uninteresting and difficult.

Replacement of jets for gas stoves for Hephaestus bottled gas. Instructions.

In order to bring you and me as close as possible to the sensations of an installer who replaces jets for bottled gas on a gas stove, we chose a Brest 300 gas stove that has been in use for many years. And in practical life, quite often it’s mostly old ones that are converted to liquefied gas gas stoves that are delivered to the country or to country houses. When replacing jets, several important discoveries await us, which can only be discussed when we clearly begin to approach the intended goal. A number of necessary photographs will help with this, which had to be taken in order to fully illuminate the implementation of the task.

A Junkers geyser installed in your home will provide quick preparation of hot water and will delight you with its excellent appearance. This is modern water heating equipment manufactured using advanced technologies. However, the use of advanced developments did not deprive Junkers geysers of certain disadvantages. However, they are found in many houses and apartments. Here are the main advantages of these speakers:

• Excellent appearance – Junkers speakers have an excellent, strict design;
• Wide range of performance options;
• Convenient control – a minimum of control elements.

Buyers have a large selection of columns to choose from, differing in their performance, thermal power and type of ignition system. Unfortunately, there are no design solutions. Their main advantage is their affordable price. Flow-through geysers from this manufacturer are offered in many stores selling water heating equipment and gas equipment. What do reviews say about Junkers geysers? Our review will tell you about this.

Junkers geysers have received many positive and negative reviews. After reading them, you will be able to make the right choice and choose the most reliable gas water heater.

How to set up and adjust a Junkers geyser

Can anyone explain what is the reason if the spark is lost when starting the WR 13 gas water heater?

The wiring of the ignition element has broken. Connect the wires correctly. Igniter failure. We recommend inspecting this element and adjusting it. The spark electrode has failed. Replace it with a new one.

There is a problem with this gas water heater. I'm trying to start it, there is a spark, but the igniter does not ignite. How to fix?

The igniter nozzle is clogged with dirt. Needs to be blown out. The ignition electrode is in the wrong position. Set it up. Presence of air in the gas network. Remove air.

I am using a Junkers WR 275 dispenser. For what reason may the pilot burner go out at the moment of ignition. What problem is this?

The thermocouple is inoperative. Should be replaced. The coil is damaged. Need to replace.

We installed a Junkers WR 350 geyser. When working in winter, a problem arises. She doesn’t have enough gas, and besides, very often we are supplied with low-quality gas. And since it is made in Europe, it does not have a mode of operation on red gas instead of blue.

Junkers speaker design

• The company began producing semi-automatic speakers back in 1968. During operation, a pilot burner is used. Ignition is carried out using a piezoelectric element. The main burner turns on when the DHW tap is opened.
• Automatic - powered by batteries or a hydrogen generator. The series includes simple Junkers geysers with an open combustion chamber, as well as multifunctional models with modulated power. The performance of the burner varies depending on the water pressure.

Only high-quality materials are used in the internal structure of Junkers gas flow columns. All water heaters undergo mandatory testing and are subject to certification.

More information about the technical characteristics of Junkers speakers can be found in the following table:

The marking of the water heater provides detailed information regarding the operating principle and internal structure. A table with explanations of the symbols will help you understand the abbreviations:

• W - Geyser
• R - Power regulator
• 10 — Max. water consumption (l/min)
• –2 — Version 2
• P - Piezoelectric ignition
• B — Electronic ignition system with batteries (1.5 V)
• G - Electronic ignition system from a hydrogenerator
• 23 — Designation number for working on natural gas N
• 31 — Number of designation of operation on liquefied gas
• S…. - Code of the country

How to light a Junkers gas water heater

The vast majority of Junkers water heaters offered to domestic buyers operate in semi-automatic mode. Ignition of a semi-automatic gas boiler is carried out as follows:

• on the front panel of the water heater there is a valve that opens the gas supply;
• the button is pressed and the wick is lit using a piezoelectric element;
• the gas valve is left clamped for another 20-30 seconds;
• Now the button is released, the flame on the burner should continue to burn.

The pilot burner remains on throughout the day. When you open the hot water tap, the boiler will turn on automatically. Adjustment of the gas water heater is carried out on your own, using two knob regulators: changing the gas and water pressure.

Device cost

Each device is equipped with detailed instructions, which describe the technical components of the device, instructions for installation, configuration and care of it. The manufacturer recommends not to install the device yourself, but to trust specialists from the gas service. After all, incorrect installation can not only break the device, but also cause significant harm to an inept installer.

Now the time has come to write an article not about computers and 1Ski, but about repairing a Bosch/Junkers WR13 gas water heater. Who would have thought that an IT specialist would get into it. It’s a tradition that such things are best left unchecked in the departments of gas companies and without special knowledge. In fact, there is nothing terrible there, and with more or less straight hands, you can do it yourself. Moreover, there is a crisis in the country and I want to save money. It all started when the water heater stopped going off when the hot water was turned off, I had to run and turn off the gas manually. Googling suggested that two main blocks are responsible for this: the hydraulic fittings (water unit) and the gas fittings. They are connected together in such a way that when water is supplied, the water unit, using a membrane pressing on the pin, presses on the gas valve, thereby opening the gas supply. When the water is turned off, the gas valve closes. In general, the problem is somewhere here! (number 14 in the picture)

So, let's get started...Here is our patient:

Operating and connection instructions

Before you turn on the Junkers model gas water heater, as is the case with other water heating devices that run on gas, you must check the draft. After this, you can turn on the gas and light the burner - using a special button or manually, using a lighter or matches.

Important! Installation and connection of any gas-powered water heating devices is prohibited without the participation of a specialist. This work must be carried out exclusively by employees of the local gas service.

As with other HSVs, a user manual or instruction manual is supplied with the device itself. Therefore, after purchasing, you should be sure to read the information in this document. Experts advise regularly cleaning the igniter, radiator and other elements of the system to prevent breakdowns, which occur very often with these water heaters. It is also necessary to find out what kind of hardness the water flows in the water supply - if it is high, then you will definitely need to purchase an additional special device to prevent the formation of scale.

Common breakdowns

Often the device breaks down due to improper use. It happens that this happens due to corrosion, poor water quality and electrical surges. If a defect is discovered after purchase, it will be repaired free of charge at the service center.

Paid repairs will cost approximately 1,500 rubles. The price depends on the complexity of the breakdown. It is recommended to take the device to the service yourself in order to save on delivery or calling a private technician. The most common malfunctions are:

• water leak;
• overheat;
• the occurrence of loud sounds emanating from the device;
• the water does not heat up;
• The sensor stopped working.

Basically, these breakdowns occur due to the formation of a large layer of scale. In order to repair the device yourself, you need to determine the cause, purchase original spare parts, follow the recommendations of specialists and study the basic rules for repairing this type of boiler.

After repairs, you must make sure that all fastenings of the device are correctly secured and that no gas leaks occur during operation. Repairing the device yourself is only permitted if you have such experience. Only original spare parts purchased from Bosch should be used.

Now about malfunctions of Junkers and Bosh speakers

1. As I wrote above, the column is assembled on rubber O-rings. With old speakers they become woody and the seals begin to leak. It’s good if the master has them. You often come across different collective farm options from windings to sealants.
2. The membrane of the water block, unlike the membranes of Chinese speakers, lasts a very long time. I encountered a torn membrane once. The price of the original membrane is about 1800 rubles, the Chinese equivalent costs around 400 rubles. Who will find it? There is no point in the original, because the prices are astronomical.
3. The assembled geyser water block costs around 4500-5000 rubles. The price is high. Seal repair kits for sale. You can sort out the water block yourself. Often the flow regulator leaks at the block. This can be treated by replacing the O-ring.
4. It is rare, but leakage of the water block rod seal occurs. Unfortunately, the oil seal cannot be replaced separately. Replaces with water block cover. The price of the cap with a rod is 2700 rubles. Very expensive!
5. On Junkers (Junkers) the traction sensor and overheating sensor are often tormented. Sometimes it’s so painful that I change the entire set of thermocouple and sensors. If changing the automation was not part of the plan, then you can painlessly short-circuit the temperature sensor (many imported gas water heaters do not have one at all). I don’t recommend short-circuiting the traction sensor, something that is clearly needed and has saved more than one life. It stops the gas supply to the column if there is no draft in the chimney. You can short-circuit it for a while, so as not to sit without hot water, and only in order to quickly find a replacement for it.

If you decide to buy such a speaker, then read the reviews on the useful website “Otzovik”. There, everyone described their column and gave ratings. My review is quite old. https://otzovik.com/review_1713020.html

Now I would give this column a solid B+. I recommend buying. Usually everything can be repaired without spare parts. Among the “disadvantages” of the speaker, I would like to note the high price of spare parts. Luckily they don't break often.

If anyone is interested, I’m posting instructions here for Bosch and Junkers gas water heaters

Instructions for the Bosch gas water heater /upload/file/quickdir/201104111631310. instructions for the therm 4000 o type p.pdf

Instructions for the Junkers gas water heater /upload/file/quickdir/gazovaya_kolonka_bosch_junkers_wr10_13_15p_1.pdf

That's all for me in a nutshell. It’s up to you to climb into the column yourself, or call me.

I hope the article was useful to you in some way.

Gas water heaters are a very popular type of water heater. Having selected a suitable model and installed it in an apartment or house, all that remains is to learn how to turn on the speaker. Among the mandatory manipulations is the opening of the gas tap that supplies gas to the device, as well as the opening of the water tap through which cold water will flow into the device. In this case, your actions will depend on the type of ignition used in your column model.

A simple ignition method: how to turn on a Bosch gas water heater

Using modern geysers usually does not cause difficulties

When purchasing speakers, you should pay attention to the presence of a passport and warranty for the product

It is also very important that the seller provides instructions for its use along with the speaker.

How to light up a Bosch speaker:

Move the control to the right if it is in the “Off” position. The regulator should move to the “Piezo ignition” position. This means the spark icon and vertical buttons will connect. The start button should be pressed down with your finger while pressing the piezo power button

The fact that the piezoelectric element has triggered will be indicated by characteristic clicks.

It is important to ensure that the flame does not go out for the first ten seconds. Then you can transfer the power to the desired level

After the power is switched to the desired value, the flame constantly burns in the mode that was set. But when you turn on the hot water, the column starts automatically heating the water. It’s easy to turn off the column – you just need to move the slider all the way.

Peculiarities

The characteristics of Junkers indicate that the device is ideally suited to Russian conditions. It is adapted to the pressure maintained in Russian gas pipelines and is equal to 13 millibars. In addition, the system is able to work with the low water pressure inherent in Russian water supply systems. For Junkers, 0.1 atmospheres is enough to perform the intended functions.

Such a gas burner is capable of heating from 11 to 16 liters of water per minute, which is considered a very high figure. In addition, the flame power automatically changes depending on the strength and size of the water flow. The structures are safe and can serve for a decent time. The devices are able to provide fast water heating and look great, which explains their popularity around the world.

Strict design, a variety of models differing in performance, design and ignition system, affordable price and simple controls are among their main advantages.

Geyser Junkers miniMAXX WR 15P

Behind the strict appearance and good performance lies a poor filling, not much different from the filling of domestic gas water heaters Oasis. Let's start with the heat exchanger - it is incredibly thin, it leaked six months after purchasing the column. Then the gaskets began to leak, they had to be constantly changed, otherwise the neighbors could be flooded. Sometimes the igniter goes out because the gas control is triggered - and it is impossible to understand why it suddenly triggers. It is impossible to repair its “guts”, since everything is very thin, flimsy, and cannot be repaired; I don’t even know how it was developed and how it is produced - this is one continuous drawback. And even the fact that it can work with low pressure does not justify its snotty fragility. This is not a column, this is complete torture.

Advantages:

• Easy control, no extra knobs and buttons, temperature can be easily adjusted;
• Good performance, you can open two taps at once or take a shower while someone else is washing the dishes;
• It doesn't make much noise and doesn't scare anyone with its noise.

Flaws:

• This column itself has one big drawback, since literally everything in it breaks;
• Terrible heat exchanger, thin copper that cannot withstand heat;
• It constantly flows, threatening to flood the neighbors. Who knows how she will break through next time;
• It cannot be repaired, since it is impossible to repair these “snots”.

Advantages and disadvantages

Despite the quality of production of Junkers geysers, they are known for their shortcomings in the water heating system and breakdowns characteristic of these particular installations. For example, a common problem is that the wick in a Junkers geyser goes out - this is evidenced by numerous reviews. Perhaps the cause of such problems is poor traction - but the fact is there. Other disadvantages of Junkers water heaters are as follows:

• All models, regardless of modification, are very noisy;
• After a few years, the heat exchanger fails, which leads to leaks;
• During installation, it is also necessary to seal the joints and gaskets, since leaks appear in the columns of this German company very often.

Open type how to start a gas water heater

Flow-through geysers installed in residential premises cause a lot of controversy. It should be noted that modern geysers do not pose a danger if you follow all the rules for their use. Everyone who lives in an apartment or house and uses such a column to heat water should know the rules for handling a water heater.

If there is a large accumulation of gas in the room, it is necessary to open the windows to reduce the gas concentration

It is important to know that if there is gas in the room, turning on electrical appliances and fire is strictly prohibited. If the water heater is not working properly, you should call the gas service. How to light an open type column:

How to light an open type column:

It is strictly forbidden to light a fire if there is no reverse draft in the chimney. Do not turn on the device without understanding the instructions

It is important that the room is equipped with a constant flow of air. You cannot repair or make changes to the operation of the gas water heater yourself.

When lighting, do not touch the front of the panel. When turning on the speaker, it is better to set it to low power. It should be noted that modern models of speakers are equipped with safety devices that stop the operation of the speaker if there is no traction.

Operating and connection instructions

Before you turn on the Junkers model gas water heater, as is the case with other water heating devices that run on gas, you must check the draft. After this, you can turn on the gas and light the burner - using a special button or manually, using a lighter or matches.

Important! Installation and connection of any gas-powered water heating devices is prohibited without the participation of a specialist. This work must be carried out exclusively by employees of the local gas service.

As with other HSVs, a user manual or instruction manual is supplied with the device itself. Therefore, after purchasing, you should be sure to read the information in this document. Experts advise regularly cleaning the igniter, radiator and other elements of the system to prevent breakdowns, which occur very often with these water heaters. It is also necessary to find out what kind of hardness the water flows in the water supply - if it is high, then you will definitely need to purchase an additional special device to prevent the formation of scale.

Today it is impossible to imagine a city apartment without a gas water heater. - This is the most affordable and reliable equipment for heating cold water. The column simultaneously supplies hot water to several water supply points - to the faucet in the kitchen, to the faucet and shower in the bathroom. A breakdown of the unit entails a lot of everyday inconvenience.

Regardless of their service life, speakers from even the most recognized manufacturers sometimes fail. Insufficient water heating speed, yellow or green flame in the burner, loud hum during operation, black soot flakes are typical consequences of non-periodic or unqualified maintenance of units.

Breakdowns and repair methods for speakers

The main reason for the failure of a gas instantaneous water heater is mechanical or natural wear and tear of the working elements of the device. Mechanical wear includes cracking of the membrane gasket, failure of the solenoid valve, and combustion of the thermocouple. Natural wear and tear of components is clogging of the water purification filter, contamination of the heat exchange unit, clogging of pilot tubes and burner nozzles.

The wick fades after releasing the gas button

This is the most common device failure. The cause of the breakdown is a clogged igniter channel or failure of the bimetallic sensor.

To eliminate the malfunction, you should call a service center technician. The technician will clean the column, thereby extending the service life and warranty of the water heater.

The column does not heat the water quickly enough

It happens that the column does not heat running water quickly enough, and when cold weather sets in, it does not work at all. Check the integrity and flexibility of the membrane gasket. If cracking or loss of flexibility occurs, replace the membrane with a new element. If the structure of the membrane is not damaged, clean the surface of the gasket and put the element in place.

To ensure that the dispenser operates without failures, perform maintenance on the unit once or twice a year. To do this, it is recommended to contact our company. The first maintenance is carried out before the onset of winter cold, and repeated maintenance is carried out in the spring, after the heating season has passed.

The column locks after a few minutes of operation

Check the air draft in the chimney duct. To do this, attach a sheet of paper to the chimney opening. The sheet of paper should be held on the wall by the flow of outgoing air. The second way to check traction is with a burning match. Place a burning match near the chimney opening and observe the flame. If the flame rushes towards the chimney, the draft is normal; if it deviates from the channel, the draft is broken.

To restore air draft, clean the chimney of soot, dust, and small debris. To conduct a complete audit of the gas exhaust system, contact specialized companies. Trained engineers will conduct a comprehensive system check using special equipment.

Repair of geysers at the customer’s address

Regulatory requirements prohibit the dismantling of gas instantaneous water heaters that are connected to the main gas pipeline. According to the rules of the gas supervisory service, the user must call an engineer to his home to carry out service work.

To carry out scheduled maintenance or repair of a gas water heater, a routine or comprehensive audit of the flue gas removal system, please contact our company. We will send trained installation engineers who will check the technical condition of the chimney and unit, identify possible malfunctions in the operation of the equipment and eliminate breakdowns.

Gas water heaters are designed to heat water in apartments and houses that do not have hot water supply. They have recently become popular heating devices among the population, both private houses and residential apartments. They are often bought by families with children, as interruptions in the supply of hot water are becoming more common these days.

The most popular models of geysers are easy to use, they are safe and quickly allow you to regulate the degree of water heating in the house. In this article we will look at how the Junkers gas water heater works and is repaired. .

Information about the manufacturer Junkers

The German company produces several lines of water heating devices. The brand has been known since 1895, when Hugo Junkers opened a factory for the production of water heaters. The engineer was able to implement all the innovative solutions of the century before last, for example, in 1968, piezo ignition was introduced into the devices, and a little later, ignition from two elements.

Interesting! The German founder patented more than 200 different inventions, a record at that time.

Since the 19th century, it has been one of the leaders in the production of water heating devices for general purposes. At the end of the last century, the company introduced the first mounted combination boiler on the planet with a power regulator.

The Junkers geyser is one of the achievements in the field of the household industry, in which the company was able to implement all the innovative developments of our time. Today Bosch Thermotechnology is the largest manufacturer of heating and water heating systems.

Types of speakers

All German Junkers geysers are equipped with various types of igniters. This serves as the basis for distinguishing them from each other. Gas water heaters are available in the following versions:

• Junkers V;
• Junkers R;
• Junkers G.

The first type of speakers does not have a burning igniter, so ignition in it occurs using two batteries.

The water column in this case is fully automated and therefore it starts itself, controls the level of water pressure and monitors the pressure in the water supply in order to correctly set the heating mode. It is also equipped with a sensor that will notify the owner at the right time about any malfunctions in the column, which will help eliminate the malfunction as soon as possible and prevent breakdown of the entire device.

If you look at the customer reviews of this version of the speaker, you can conclude that its service life is more than 10 years, which is a big plus in comparison with analogues.

Junkers R is equipped with piezo ignition, that is, the igniter that is installed in the device will be constantly ignited when the device is operating. It is not automated, so you will have to independently regulate the water pressure in the system.

Type G is equipped with a hydrodynamic generator, which ignites the burner (it does not have an igniter). This device is capable of operating at a pressure of 0.35 ATM and is equipped with Hydro Power technology. Also, this type of Junkers speaker is available in two sizes:

• standard;
• mini.

All the components are the same, the only difference is the size.
