Benefits of gas water heaters Vector
Gas instantaneous water heaters from the manufacturer in question have a number of visible advantages, thanks to which they have become widely used by Russian consumers. And first of all, it is an affordable price. Not every person is ready to pay more than 10 thousand rubles for such equipment, and it is not always possible to do without it, living in a private house. In the range of geysers
V
ektor
there are devices no more than 4000 rubles, at the same time they are able to solve all universal tasks.
Stylish look
Helps maintain a trendy interior design
Since the column is available in a universal color range, it will not focus on itself, and in some cases it can even become a decorating element. In addition, the manufacturer Vector takes care of saving space in the room, so the geyser is not large.
In the event that the device fails for some reason, then in any market you can find Chinese-made spare parts that do not require large financial costs, and will also extend the life of the column.
At the column convenient control system
. Modern models have two knobs for adjusting the gas supply to the burner and the amount of water flowing through the heat exchanger. Some devices have another switch - between winter / summer modes. On the first program, the burner works on all sections, with the “Summer” program, some of the sections are turned off. On the case (if there is an electronic display), you can see the set temperature of the water.
Geyser Vector LUX Eco 20-2
I used to think that all gas water heaters were white. It was this model that aroused my surprise, as it was equipped with a glass panel with a pleasant pattern. The result is not a faceless device hanging in my bathroom, but a beautiful speaker with a great look that matches the design of the room. I would rate reliability at 4, since the Vector geyser ignites and goes out for no apparent reason - the master said that this was a “buggy” thrust sensor and advised to get rid of it. Sometimes you have to adjust the heating temperature, as the pressure and temperature of the water are constantly changing. The front panel has a small display that shows the temperature - it's very convenient.
Advantages:
- Excellent appearance, beautiful panel with a minimum of frills;
- Low burner noise, my old column was much louder;
- Heats water quickly, no need to wait for a quick warm-up.
Flaws:
- It clicks when it cools down - sometimes it frightens with surprise;
- Over time, it began to leak, it turned out that the heat exchanger had leaked, I had to pay for repairs;
- Difficult to "catch" the desired temperature, although at such a low cost and minimal functionality it can hardly be called a significant drawback.

Gregory
An excellent column for giving, as this model simply does not need a chimney. Due to the low productivity of combustion products, so little is released that they can be released directly into the atmosphere. Just in case, then we ventilate the room. Also pleased with the small size of the column and the ability to connect bottled gas, which made our neighbors in the dacha happy - they don’t have gas in the house, but they live in the dacha all summer. Now they, too, rejoice in the presence of hot water and the opportunity to bathe or wash dishes under warm water. If the column did not go out when the water pressure changed (at the dacha, the pressure constantly jumps), then it would be doubly wonderful. But in general we are satisfied.
Advantages:
- A chimney is not needed, which is important for a small country cottage;
- Large range of temperature adjustment;
- Possibility of working from bottled gas, and the parts for connecting the cylinder do not need to be purchased separately - everything is included in the kit.
Flaws:
- Sometimes it goes out, but this is due to pressure drops - there's nothing you can do about it;
- There is no temperature indicator, you have to adjust the heating by touch.
Disadvantages of Water Heaters Vector
Do not think that for modest money you will purchase newfangled equipment that will last for decades - this is not so. You need to understand that budget options are not designed for long-term use and cannot offer innovative technologies that are present in expensive counterparts. It happens that after a season of use, equipment needs repair and replacement of parts.
Another disadvantage is the burnout of the heat exchanger. Although it is made of copper, its layer is quite thin. Therefore, over time, the heat exchanger can no longer withstand high temperatures and the equipment breaks down.
Even these shortcomings do not stop buyers and heaters are actively sold. Someone believes that they are much better and better than models from a more expensive segment. In any case, it is impossible to say for sure about the quality without testing the water heater yourself.
Disadvantages of gas water heaters Vector
Most users are sure that for little money they get a super unit that is equipped with all the technical characteristics and functions. However, this is absolutely not the case. It should be understood that due to the use of the most economical version of Chinese spare parts, such a column will not be able to serve for many years, such as, for example, similar models in a more expensive price segment.
In some cases, after some time, alternative options for replacing components may be needed.
In addition, although the walls of the heat exchanger are made of copper, they have a very thin layer of it, so over time they can burn out, unable to withstand high temperatures. As mentioned above, the column turns off only after the water reaches a temperature of 80 degrees. So walls thin out over time
, as a result, the device becomes unusable.
In fact, there are exactly as many opinions as there are users. Some owners consider this speaker to be the best purchase, while others consider the models of this manufacturer not the most successful. In any case, until a person tries to use it on his own, he will not be able to give an objective assessment.
Model overview
Each manufacturer of equipment has the most successful models. If we talk about the Vektor brand, there are several options:

Lineup of geysers Vector
Speaking of gas water heaters Vector, the following models can be noted.
In the budget price category, geysers Vector are the best option for instantaneous water heaters. They are easy to operate, have a good security system and stylish design. Since not the highest quality Chinese components are used for production (which can significantly reduce the price of this equipment), the service life without repair is not very long. In any case, it will not be difficult to find components for restoring the efficiency of the gas column.

Geyser VEKTOR - new life
Since the column is out of production, we will not do a detailed review of models that have sunk into summer. On the
shift
came
new
generation
water heaters
under
brand
NEVA. The production of NEVA series devices is carried out by the Armavir Gas Equipment Plant. Which, in turn, is part of the concern of BaltGaz Group enterprises.
The most popular models of gas water heaters are the Chinese product - the Vector gas water heater. Orders of this product are controlled by customers from Russia.
Testing and quality control of geysers is carried out in the factory. All this is done by qualified specialists.
Geyser "Vector" is a popular model among consumers in the Russian market. But the reviews about the geyser "Vector" are contradictory.
Geyser JSD 12-W
I think that this is an excellent column for the money that is asked for it. Quite a decent appearance, simple design, a minimum of electronics, electric ignition from two batteries. It works the way a cheap Chinese device is supposed to work, although there are worse and more expensive models on the market. Therefore, I do not understand the angry yelling of people who buy cheap speakers and complain about their shortcomings - if something does not suit you, then where did you look when buying? They would take models already stuffed with electronics with flame modulation and temperature support. I believe that Vector JSD 12-W fully justifies its low cost, and any column has its drawbacks.
Advantages:
- A cheap model for unpretentious users, without "bells and whistles";
- Decent appearance, no frills;
- Starts normally with minimal water pressure.
Flaws:
- Sometimes it takes a long time to light up, the problem is solved by replacing the batteries. As it turned out, normal batteries are needed here, and they are expensive;
- Six months later, water began to drip from some joints, I had to climb inside and pull it up.
2 Disadvantages of gas water heaters Vektor
When using the device, the most common malfunctions of the Vector geyser are weak batteries that provide automatic ignition - they should be changed often.
In this case, you need to use expensive high-quality batteries. Also, the downside is that the protection system is set too rigidly in the device. Normal operation requires stable water pressure and good water flow.
There are shortcomings in the change in the temperature of the water at the outlet, and this happens if there are large pressure drops. In these cases, automatic temperature control is used, while the Vector geyser does not have it.
Manually setting such settings will be difficult. The most common breakdowns are:
- geyser does not ignite Vector;
- no spark on gas column Vector.
These are the most common breakdowns. Breakdowns are also less common, like a cracked heat exchanger tube. The device of the geyser Vector is not convenient, since when removing the heat exchange unit for cleaning the unit, you will encounter many difficulties.
It should be noted that not every store has a complete list of spare parts for the unit. There are also cases when even GORGAZ refused to repair this unit, since the employees are not familiar with the device of the dispenser.
They demanded a diagram of the Vector gas column, but the consumer often did not have it. A significant drawback of this unit is that with prolonged use, the process of turning it on often breaks down. An explosion may occur due to untimely ignition of the gas. At the same time, consumers experience fear when turning on the column. If your Vector gas column does not turn on, then it is better to call a qualified craftsman.
If you listen to numerous reviews, you can come to the conclusion that the Vector geyser is not as easy to operate as it seems at first glance.Such a device requires an understanding of several basic principles of this unit. Even experienced professionals have a question, how to disassemble the Vector geyser?
2.1
The device and principle of operation of the column Vector
The design of the unit is very simple. In principle, it is no different from its counterparts. Consists of:
- Main burner;
- ignition;
- Heat exchanger.
The geyser Vector Lux consists of a painted metal frame, which is very similar to a conventional kitchen cabinet. The above elements are placed inside this frame. From the bottom of the frame there are two pipes. One for gas supply, the other for water.
The principle of operation of the unit is also simple. All models have an automatic type of ignition. This means that the column turns on after you turn the rotary valve.
After you open the rotary valve, a valve is activated in the column system, which slowly passes gas into the pilot burner, and then into the main burner. After that, the gas burns out and the column releases heat and energy to quickly heat cold water. Cold water passes through a spiral faucet (heat exchanger) and already hot water is supplied to the faucet. It should be noted that the Vector geyser can work and, and this affects the low cost of installation.
