Heating equipment for use in private homes or relatively small spaces is becoming increasingly popular.
The prices of resource suppliers and the constant increase in housing and communal services tariffs force owners to use their own, autonomous heating and hot water supply systems.
The choice of heating installations is extremely wide; choosing the most suitable type or model is a difficult task that requires certain knowledge and experience.
One of the most respected European manufacturers of heating equipment is the Italian company Baxi, whose equipment has been highly praised in our country.
Let's consider a popular type of units from this company, capable of simultaneously heating and supplying hot water.
Double-circuit boilers from Baxi
Baxi produces a large number of double-circuit installations, since they are the most convenient and efficient in private home systems. The operating principle and design of these installations are not fundamentally different from general design directions.
A feature of Baxi equipment is the complete authenticity of parts and components that do not allow replacement with other elements . The manufacturer pays great attention to ensuring the protection of installations from external influences, creating a system of self-diagnosis and monitoring of all boiler components.
An additional bonus is adaptation to the technological conditions of our country, to low or unstable gas pressure, and voltage fluctuations in the power supply network.
There are wall-mounted and floor-mounted samples that differ from each other only in the location of the connecting pipes and the heat exchanger material (some models).
The lineup
The model range offered to Russian buyers is quite extensive. It is represented by gas boilers, differing from each other in different technical parameters and prices. The most popular of them are:
- Prime. It is a condensing type with a maximum power of 33 kW. Due to the fact that the boiler is equipped with a biometric heat exchanger, it allows you to save up to 35% of fuel annually. The material from which the boiler is made perfectly suppresses the noise that appears during its operation, making it almost silent. The equipment itself is automatically equipped, which allows it to independently regulate the heat supply depending on the weather;
- BAXI Luna. This is a condensing model with a power of up to 65 kW. These boilers are designed for installation on the outside of the house and can operate at temperatures down to minus 15 degrees. This type is equipped with a system that allows you to independently diagnose. There are two operating modes at once. The boilers are easy to operate. You can set the necessary parameters for work yourself or entrust everything to the system. The boiler is easy to operate and is suitable even for novice users;
- Eco. The main feature of these boilers is that they operate quietly even with sudden changes in pressure. They are produced with a power of up to 24 kW. It is possible to work with both liquefied and conventional natural gas. If necessary, a boiler can be connected to this model. It is an excellent option for placement in a home with small children due to its environmental friendliness;
- Nuvola. Such models belong to the third generation. Among the positive aspects of the product are increased efficiency, the ability to operate at pressures below normal, and the presence of a temperature sensor;
- Main Four 24. Fifth generation of the gas boiler line. Has an improved version of the product. The BAXI double-circuit wall-mounted gas boiler of this model has a maximum power of 24 kW. The instructions for a BAKSI 24 kW double-circuit gas boiler of this type provide for use in harsh conditions. There is an automatic bypass and a bithermal heat exchanger.

The latest model has a number of advantages, including electronic equipment that allows you to regulate the operation of the system.
Important! The selection of a model should depend only on the required characteristics, which are determined by the operating instructions.
Each gas boiler model has its own characteristics that must be taken into account. This is especially important when selecting equipment for an individual heating system.
How they work
Heating equipment for private houses can be intended only for heating (single-circuit), or for heating and supplying hot water (double-circuit).
The design of double-circuit boilers is a complicated model of a single-circuit unit and can be implemented in two versions:
- With installation of a secondary heat exchanger.
- Using a bithermal heat exchanger.
The first design option is to transfer thermal energy by a heated coolant leaving the primary heat exchanger. The hot heating agent enters a secondary plate heat exchanger, in which it transfers part of the heat to cold water, after which it flows to the analysis points.
A bithermic heat exchanger does not differ in appearance from a conventional unit. It's all about the design of the tube, inside of which another one is installed, of a complex cross-section, shaped like a rhombus . The coolant moves along the upper part of the formed cavity, and hot water moves along the inner, diamond-shaped cavity.
The efficiency of such a unit is much higher than that of a conventional plate device, but maintenance and cleaning are significantly more difficult. For boilers with a bithermal heat exchanger, a water filter or softener is required.
Designs with two heat exchangers are considered more reliable because they are easier to maintain and clean.
Considering the unstable quality of water in water supply systems, as well as the common method of drawing water from one’s own wells, the preference for installations with a simpler and faster method of maintenance is quite reasonable.

Advantages and disadvantages of gas boilers
Pros:
- optimal combination of relatively cheap fuel with high equipment efficiency;
- easy operation;
- heating large areas;
- no need for fuel reserves;
- long service life.
Separately, the advantages of double-circuit floor-standing boilers with built-in boilers should be emphasized. These are real autonomous mini-boiler houses, which not only heat the house, but also supply hot water for household needs. The convenience lies in the fact that the need for selecting and additional installation of a storage tank and pump, as well as individual safety elements, disappears. The equipment is a single unit, so all that is required is to bring utilities to the site. Of course, boilers with additional hydraulic units are more expensive, but they can provide real comfort, and connecting them does not require additional wiring.
Disadvantages of gas heat generators:
- the need to prepare appropriate documentation for installation and connection;
- pressure surges in the main gas pipeline - BAXI boilers cope well with them;
- the mandatory presence of a chimney - this problem concerns not only gas equipment;
- for floor-standing boilers with an open combustion chamber, a utility, well-ventilated room with a separate exit to the street is required;
- danger of gas leaks - the problem is solved by carrying out scheduled checks and maintaining the automation in good condition.
What series and models are dual-circuit
Baxi presents several series of dual-circuit units.
These include:
- Slim . A series of floor-standing boilers with a cast iron primary heat exchanger, the power of which ranges from 15 to 62 kW. They have the ability to switch to conventional heating mode and to a heated floor system. Full set of functions, possibility of remote control using a remote control (purchased separately).
- Nuvola . Wall-mounted boilers with a capacity of 24, 28 and 32 kW with an open or closed combustion chamber. They are equipped with a removable control panel that can be installed in a convenient place. A special feature of the series is a heating tank with a magnetic anode, which allows you to work with hard water without harmful effects on the internal surfaces of pipelines and containers.
- Luna . The series is represented by models with a power of 24,25,28 and 31 kW. Boilers in this line are the most expensive, but the user ratings are not the most flattering. With a large set of functionality, the design is flawed and frequent failures of various components are noted.
- Eco . There are two series, 4 and 5 generations with a closed turbocharged burner. The power of the units is 10, 18 and 24 kW, the presence of a fully functional primary heat exchanger and a stainless steel secondary plate heat exchanger. It is noteworthy that all boilers are the same design, only in different models the power is limited by software.
- Main. High-quality boilers with compact body sizes, digital display, and a wide range of capabilities. The power of the models is 15, 18 and 25 kW. All units are equipped with a built-in water filter. The main feature of the models is a bithermal heat exchanger, which has high heating efficiency and allows for significant fuel savings.
All models and series of Baxi boilers have a similar design and equipment, differing from each other only in individual elements.

Installation of a wall-mounted double-circuit gas boiler Baxi
Baxi double-circuit boilers operate on the principle common to all similar designs. The coolant moves through the system via a circulation pump.
At the outlet, it enters a three-way valve, which mixes in a certain amount of cold return to obtain the specified parameters of the heating circuit . Hot water is heated in a secondary heat exchanger, which receives thermal energy from the heated heating agent.
The combustion of gas in the combustion chamber is ensured by a fan that supplies air flow and creates the desired mode. All processes and components are constantly monitored by sensors that send signals to the control board.
If emergency situations occur, the sensors display an error code on the display, allowing the owner to take appropriate measures.
Baxi SLIM - floor-standing gas boilers, boilers with cast iron heat exchanger
Baxi SLIM are floor-standing, fairly compact gas boilers with electronic flame modulation. The boilers have a cast iron heat exchanger and an atmospheric burner. The model range is quite wide and includes boilers with a power from 15 to 62 kW, which allows you to choose a boiler for heating a room with an area of up to 620 sq. m.
Double-circuit boilers are produced with a closed combustion chamber with a power of 24 kW and 30 kW, with an open power of only 24 kW. Baxi single-circuit boilers are produced with a closed chamber with a power of 24 and 30 kW, with an open combustion chamber: from 15 to 62 kW.
Floor-standing gas boilers Baxi SLIM are designed for heating residential and non-residential premises. Baxi boilers are available with open and closed combustion chambers. For the combustion process, air is supplied into the open chamber directly from the room itself in which it is located. Air is supplied to the closed chamber from the street through a special chimney, which is a more comfortable option. This is especially important for residential premises. In addition, Baxi SLIM gas boilers are offered by the manufacturer as single- and double-circuit. It should be borne in mind that single-circuit boilers are intended only for heating the room, while double-circuit boilers both heat and provide hot water. Double-circuit boilers have a built-in stainless steel boiler with a capacity of 50 or 60 liters for hot water. If necessary, boilers with a capacity of 80 or 120 liters made of enameled and stainless steel can be connected to single-circuit boilers. Baxi SLIM floor-standing gas boilers are available in various modifications. Boiler markings may be as follows:
- numbers 1 or 2 in the model name indicate the number of circuits in the boiler (1 - single-circuit, 2 - double-circuit);
- iN - model with an open combustion chamber, without hydraulic accessories (pump, expansion tank, pressure gauge);
- i - model with an open combustion chamber, with hydraulic accessories;
- FiN - model with a closed combustion chamber, without hydraulic accessories;
- Fi is a model with a closed combustion chamber, with hydraulic accessories.
Advantages of Baxi SLIM series boilers
Baxi SLIM boilers have a number of advantages. They are equipped with the necessary controls to ensure their safe operation. For example, a minimum gas pressure switch will put the boiler into standby mode if the gas pressure decreases, and when it resumes, it will resume its operation. All boilers are distinguished by their compact design and modern design. Thanks to the built-in electronic self-diagnosis system, up to ten different types of possible heating system malfunctions are automatically detected. Long-lasting operation of the boiler, as well as savings in gas consumption, is ensured by continuous flame modulation instead of stepwise switching. Manufacturers provide uninterrupted operation of the boiler when there are differences in gas inlet pressure, as well as automatic protection against freezing (when the temperature of the water drops to 5 degrees). The boilers have a built-in weather-compensating automatic system. By connecting an outdoor temperature sensor, it is possible to automatically change the heating in accordance with the outside air temperature. Baxi SLIM double-circuit boilers are equipped with an antibacterial protection system. Thanks to its activation once a week, the environmental safety of the water supply for the consumer is ensured.
How to set it up correctly
The purchased boiler is delivered to the premises and installed in a designated area. All relevant pipelines are connected to the pipes - water, gas, coolant.
Initial boiler setup:
- Electricity is connected.
- The gas supply valve opens.
- The desired operating mode is set - “summer” or “winter”.
- By pressing the corresponding buttons on the sides of the display, the temperature of the extract air and domestic hot water is set.
After this, the burner will start and the boiler will start working. An error may appear and the boiler may block, which occurs due to the presence of air in the system.
In such situations, the error is reset by pressing the “R” button and everything is repeated until a positive result is obtained.
Gas boiler Baxi main - their structural and operating features
The Baxi main 5 gas boiler differs from other models in its reasonable price.
Gas boiler main 5 is a new generation model. It is double-circuit, therefore it is suitable both for heating a room and for preparing hot water for domestic purposes. This wall-mounted device is small in size, which does not prevent it from having sufficient power (up to 24 kW). A distinctive feature of Baxi main 5 is its bimetallic heat exchanger. This allows this double-circuit, wall-mounted device to be used for a long time.
The steel core is in direct contact with the coolant and is characterized by high corrosion resistance. The heat exchanger body of the Baxi main 5 boiler is characterized by an increased level of energy transfer, and therefore is considered cost-effective. A wall-mounted, double-circuit heating element is suitable for heating systems in apartments and multi-storey buildings.
Here's what the instructions say about this model:
- Baxi main 5 is perfectly adapted for use in the domestic heating system. It works even at a gas pressure of 5 bar;
- since Baxi main 5 is intended not only for heating the room, but for preparing hot water, it has electronic flame modulation control for both the heating system and the DHW circuit;
- the instructions indicate that the gas wall-mounted, double-circuit boiler Baxi main 5 can regulate the coolant temperature in the range of 35-80°C. The boiler clearly monitors the constant temperature in the heating system and the DHW circuit. This makes Baxi main 5 very easy to use;
- Baxi main 5 is a safe device. The instructions indicate the presence in this wall-mounted, gas, dual-circuit unit of a draft control system, gas shutoff and scale formation.
The wall-mounted, double-circuit boiler Main 5, in addition to its high performance characteristics and adaptation to the conditions of the domestic heating system, is distinguished by an affordable price. Mandatory instructions and a certificate will confirm its originality.
User manual
The operation of boilers has no specific requirements or conditions. The user only needs attention, periodic maintenance, and timely response to errors . They are displayed on the display and indicate that a fault has occurred.
Often the occurrence of an error is a consequence of a random signal or a power surge, so the boiler is usually rebooted and started again. All repair work must be carried out by service center employees.
It is not recommended to carry out such activities on your own, since the result may be opposite to the owner’s expectations.

Technical faults and error codes
All failures or breakdowns of boilers are immediately diagnosed by a system of sensors that display an alert in the form of a digital code with the letter “E” (error).
The most common mistakes and owner actions:
- E01 . Keep the burner off. Possible reasons are lack of gas (check the valve), burner nozzles are clogged with soot, problems with the sensor itself.
- E02 . Thermostat overheating. The problem occurs either when the water moves too slowly, or when the heat exchanger is contaminated from the inside with lime deposits.
- E03 . Fan stop. Check it for functionality and replace it if necessary.
- E05 . Failure or short circuit of the air temperature sensor.
- E06 . Failure or short circuit of the DHW temperature sensor.
- E10 . Reduced coolant pressure. The most likely cause is a leak in the heating circuit. This most often occurs when using heated floors, since external radiators signal themselves by the appearance of puddles or streams of hot water.
- E25-26 . Blockage or failure of the circulation pump, failure of the corresponding sensor.
- E35 . False signal about the presence of flame. There may be water on the board, breakdown of the sensor on the case, etc.
- E96 . The power supply voltage is too low.
The full list of errors is much more extensive, so it is recommended to have the user manual included with the boilers at hand. There is no point in learning these codes by heart; it’s easier to look at the list at the right time.
