Electricity as fuel is not the cheapest option, but compared to wood, coal or even gas, it is the easiest to connect and use. The leaders of the CIS market are now models from Protherm and Evan.
When choosing an electric boiler, it is important to correctly select the appropriate power of the unit so as not to overpay and not freeze. This parameter is calculated using the formula, the number of kilowatts at the boiler, multiplied by 10, and then compared with the area of the house. Immediately evaluate the capabilities of the electrical network: if you have only 220 volts, then a three-phase device will no longer work. The more heating elements a model has, the more flexible its control, and the more economical it is.
