I changed the stove heating in my mother’s village house for a modern solid fuel boiler "Beaver". This boiler was recommended by the seller in the heating equipment store. The European Beaver boiler, from the Slovak firm Protherm, compares favorably in quality from Russian options even visually.
The welds are even, nothing rattles, does not hang out, the cinder does not go inside. Special thanks to the installers, they put heating radiators, pipes, the boiler itself - quickly and almost without dirt, the repair was almost not damaged. I want to note the high efficiency of the boiler.
Previously, the stove had to be heated 4-5 times a day in winter, and even then there was heat only in two rooms near it, now it’s enough to heat the boiler 2-3 times a day and the heat will be everywhere where the radiators are installed.
There is only one drawback, it was necessary to cut the wood remaining in the wood from previous years, too long logs were placed in the old oven, but they did not want to get into the more compact Beaver firebox. I regret that I did not make this purchase a few years ago, I would greatly simplify my mother’s life.
pros
It looks like a very solid boiler. I protooped a couple of times a day - it’s warm in the house.
Minuses
a lot of work - quail old logs for a shorter Beaver firebox
