Many users are faced with a problem: the column does not produce the expected results. This happens due to improper setup of the equipment. Manufacturers found a way out and released devices with automatic adjustment. We will tell you how to set up a gas column - ordinary and automatic.
Preparatory work
Despite the fact that each column “Selena”, “Vector”, “Bosch”, “Neva” comes with instructions indicating the settings, not all users understand them. One mistake at the beginning - and the technique does not work as it should.
Work begins with adjusting the water. If you do not do this right away, then all settings will be inaccurate. The flow should be minimal. The nominal values are indicated in the documents, however they are general: 6, 10, 12 liters.
How to adjust the hot water controller:
- Open the hot mixer to full power. When connecting to several points of the fence, only one valve can be unscrewed.
- Using the water switch, set the desired value.
- Turn on the tap.
Follow the recommendations of specialists:
- Wait for the pressure to drop in the line, but the column will still turn on.
- Turn the water toggle knob to the maximum position.
- Turn the gas regulator to the minimum mark until the temperature suits you.
To finish cooking, you need to adjust the gas supply. Take a look at the data sheet again and find out the minimum value for your model.
- Turn the toggle switch to minimum.
- Open the gas tap. In the models "Ariston", "Electrolux" this must be done after connecting to the network. In the heaters "Oasis", Dion, "Bosch", "Junkers" - after the installation of batteries (batteries).
- Open the hot valve - the column will start working.
Water temperature adjustment
Open the mixer and evaluate the heating temperature of the water stream. It should be 25 degrees higher than at the entrance. Note that the gas boiler does not heat the water immediately, you need to wait a bit. Use the gas lever to adjust.
Also, temperature control can be performed with a water toggle switch. By increasing the flow strength, you lower the heating temperature, and vice versa.
Experts do not recommend heating above 55 degrees. This negatively affects the operation of the device, because the scale is actively deposited.
Settings take some time, so you do not need to wait for the result immediately. After each stage, you need to drain the water and let it warm again to check the accuracy of the indicators. Operation may be hindered by reduced system pressure.
If the device runs on liquefied gas, there are pressure problems, do this:
- Remove the instrument cover.
- Loosen the locking bolt, measure with a pressure gauge.
- Remove the seal from the adjustment screw.
- Start the boiler.
- Set maximum values, unscrew all mixers with hot water.
- Set the required pressure.
Some models are equipped with the optional Winter-Summer mode. The strength of the water heating in the column depends on the temperature of the input stream. In winter, the regulator is set to the "maximum" position - maximum heating. In summer, the input temperature is higher, so the value is “minimum”. This saves resources.
Problems with poor water pressure can be eliminated during inspection. If the equipment was already in operation and you decided to reconfigure it, but there is no pressure:
- Check the rubber membrane. Its work depends on the pressure in the line. The membrane bends, activates the gas valve. When it wears out, it deforms, the gas supply does not start, the burner does not light up. Replace the membrane.
- Strainer Located at the entrance to the water reducer (block). It becomes clogged with small debris from the water supply, so the pressure may decrease. Clean the part.
Auto speaker setup
Such devices are equipped with only one regulator. He is responsible for power, heating temperature. The built-in self-diagnosis system conducts a full assessment of the operation of nodes at startup. If something is wrong, the red indicator on the panel lights up - the equipment is blocked from switching on. In this case, adjust the pressure as described above.
Thereafter:
- Remove the batteries from the compartment.
- Disconnect the microswitch.
- Insert the batteries.
- Open the hot water tap, turn on the micro switch.
- On the burner, set the pressure to maximum.
- When the settings are saved, the orange lamp lights up.
The remaining columns can be adjusted by turning the toggle switch, controlling the strength of the water flow.
Unfortunately, you can’t just set the settings according to the instructions, since each system has different indicators. If it does not work out for you to regulate the operation of the gas column, consult a specialist.
