Oasis geysers have gained their popularity due to their simplicity of design and extremely affordable price - the simplest model can be purchased for 6-7 thousand rubles. They are installed in individual apartments and private households, preparing hot water under powerful burners. The combustion chambers in Oasis geysers are open, which is another reason for the low cost of the equipment.

In an effort to provide its customers with simple but modern water heating technology, the manufacturer has done a good job on the design of the speakers. In this regard, speakers from the Oasis Glass range appeared on the market. Their fundamental difference is the finishing of the front panels with glass with certain patterns. Thanks to this, Oasis geysers fit perfectly into the interiors of bathrooms and kitchens. For more convenient control, all models are equipped with small liquid crystal displays that display the heating temperature. There are three controls in total:

• Flow regulator;
• Gas supply regulator;
• Winter-summer switch.

Simplicity and accessibility have become the main trump cards of Oasis gas instantaneous water heaters. Let's see what users say about them.

In addition to the reviews themselves, we will publish the advantages and disadvantages identified by users during operation.

Geyser Oasis Glass 20VG

Renat
We decorated the kitchen in the apartment in dark colors and decided to find a column that would match the main color tone. The only acceptable offer in our city was the Oasis Glass 20VG gas water heater, black, with a glass panel and with a beautiful picture. The seller immediately warned that this was the simplest speaker, but we weren’t looking for any bells and whistles. The problems began six months after the purchase - this semi-Chinese monster began to go out, and it was impossible to set the desired temperature. After another month, we threw this speaker into the trash and bought a normal Italian speaker. I won’t recommend Oasis - don’t get burned by Chinese cheap stuff.

Advantages:

• Solid appearance - the speaker fits perfectly into our dark kitchen. Also, there were other colors on sale;
• Affordable price - Oasis geysers are affordable for everyone.

Flaws:

• It goes out for no apparent reason - you can’t count on a comfortable shower;
• It is impossible to regulate the temperature - it jumps all the time, up and down.

Geyser Oasis, 24 kW, white

Elena
The main criterion when choosing a speaker was the price. We didn’t want to buy complete nonsense, so we decided to go with an Oasis gas water heater. We chose a 24 kW model with a flow rate of up to 12 l/min. This is quite enough for a kitchen faucet and a shower stall, even if you turn them on at the same time. The speaker pleased with its compactness and pleasant appearance. The number of regulators is minimal - set the desired temperature and forget. In winter you have to increase the temperature, since there is no automatic temperature monitoring. The ignition runs on two batteries; no connection to the electrical network is required, which is a big plus for our area.

Advantages:

• The speaker is very compact, not very thick, and the design is extremely neat;
• For ease of setup, a solid “five”, since there is nothing superfluous here - only basic functionality.

Flaws:

• The main disadvantage is the high noise level. If you increase the gas pressure, it makes a lot of noise, and this noise can be heard in the rooms;
• The batteries run out quickly - we don’t use it that actively, but we have to change the batteries every month. I know for sure that they should last a long time, but for some reason this is not the case.

Not enough charge

When you open the water, you observe a normal flow, when you turn it on, there is a characteristic click, a spark is formed and everything is generally visually good. But there is one noticeable point: the burner itself in the gas water heater does not ignite. If you look through the window, there is no flame. This is the reason why there is no hot water. The owner does not have hot water, which causes a lot of inconvenience. This reason must be eliminated as soon as possible.

The reason for the malfunction and lack of hot water lies in a completely simple phenomenon. When the batteries stop working, the speaker stops functioning. It does not heat up and therefore the hot water supply stops.

The battery charge in the final stages is only enough to produce a spark. Therefore, visually you observe a spark, and there is also a noticeable click. But the battery energy is not enough to ignite the burner itself.

Replacing the batteries yourself is not difficult. To do this, you need to open the box with the batteries and take them out. Next, you should replace it with new, high-quality, powerful batteries.

More about batteries

Polarity in batteries matters. If you insert batteries without taking into account their polarity, the column will not light up. Batteries can sometimes get stuck in the pack, so keep an eye on them.

Replacement with new functioning batteries is carried out if two main criteria are met:

• The polarity of the batteries must be taken into account;
• The box intended for batteries must be closed until it clicks.

The batteries used in geysers must be standard D (in other words, barrel batteries). Salt options are not suitable because they have the ability to quickly fail. In most cases, alkaline batteries are used for geysers. They are otherwise called alkaline batteries.

There are often cases when a person purchases batteries, but they do not light the column. Here, too, several questions arise as to why even new batteries cannot cope with their functions. At this stage, the owner may also become confused and look for a completely different reason. In order not to find yourself in such an unpleasant situation, you need to wisely choose batteries for the operation of the gas water heater. There are a few tips to keep in mind...

Tips for choosing batteries

It is not advisable to choose too cheap ones. In this case, it is recommended to choose more expensive batteries (normal ones cost about 200 rubles). If you buy cheap ones, they most likely will not work properly, which means that in the future you will need to overpay

Therefore, initially purchase good quality expensive batteries; Pay attention to the expiration date of the batteries; As for brands, Duracell and Energizer brands are preferred. The battery must be alkaline or lithium.

It will be more informative to use a specific multimeter tester that accurately determines the charge. Anyone can use such a tester; it won’t be difficult. This method is convenient and practical to use, and you can purchase a battery tester at any store.

Geyser Oasis Glass 20ZG

Natalya
I fell in love with this column at first sight, not yet knowing how much disappointment it would bring. This unit has become a real curse, as it lives its own life. The Oasis gas water heater lights up and goes out at the most inopportune moment. And the worst thing is that not a single master has yet been able to say what is wrong with her. Visually everything is fine, the burner is not clogged, the chimney works perfectly, it has been checked more than once. But the pump continues to go out, tormenting everyone in the household. And recently water started dripping from it. And every day it dripped more and more. It turned out that literally within a year the heat exchanger had become almost completely unusable. I understand perfectly well that this is an initially cheap speaker, but it should have lasted at least several years?

Advantages:

• Good appearance, with pattern on the front;
• Low price is an excellent advantage over competitors with similar characteristics.

Flaws:

• The “independent” life of this speaker is simply infuriating; preventive inspections and replacement of some components did not help get rid of problems with the unit;
• Short service life of the heat exchanger, it feels like it was already rotten and rusty from the very beginning;
• Sometimes it lights up with a bang that scares a small child.

Geyser Oasis B-12W

Denis
There is no chimney in my bathroom, so I bought myself an Oasis B-12W gas water heater. It is unusually compact and narrow, just perfect for small spaces. The productivity of this model is small, only 5 liters per minute, so it can only work with one water collection point - either a faucet in the kitchen, or a washbasin or shower head. This is quite enough for me, so I immediately paid close attention to this column. The ignition here is electric, but if the batteries run out a little, the spark becomes weak - the batteries have to be changed very often. There are also difficulties with setting the temperature; sometimes you have to struggle with the settings.

Advantages:

• The absence of the need for a chimney will certainly please those who simply do not have a chimney. The column emits little combustion products, so they are sent directly into the atmosphere;
• Small sizes, just for small spaces;
• No need to connect to the mains.

Flaws:

• The batteries run out very quickly, so they cost 200 rubles a month;
• The case is very thin, it feels like it’s made of foil.

Geyser Oasis TUR 20

Stanislav
Before you buy this speaker, think about how many problems it will bring you in the first year of operation. Firstly, it makes noise like an aircraft turbine. As soon as you increase the gas volume, an increasing hiss can be heard in the bedroom. It lights up with a roar, scaring those around. And secondly, this column has a simply disgusting heat exchanger. My temperature regulator is set to the minimum level, but there is almost nothing left of the heat exchanger! It literally burned out, turned into some pitiful scraps - but this could lead to a fire! I wanted to find the official website of the manufacturer of Oasis geysers, but I couldn’t find it - and who should I leave my complaints to? It would be better to buy an Astra gas water heater, as a friend recommended.

Advantages:

• The only advantage of the Oasis TUR 20 geyser is its affordable price - I bought it for only 10 thousand;
• I don't know if nice design can be considered a virtue, but so be it.

Flaws:

• Terrible heat exchanger, the manufacturer should take care of choosing a different heat exchanger. Let the speaker be 1000 rubles more expensive, but it will last longer;
• It makes a noise when working, I consider such a noise unacceptable;
• The battery fastener broke off in the first month - the plastic latch should be flexible, not rigid;
• As it cools down, something clicks loudly inside;
• Difficult to identify faults.

Oasis instantaneous water heaters

Gas instantaneous water heater Oasis SG-20

The instantaneous type of water heaters has become widespread. The key feature of this model is that water will be heated even at low pressure in the water supply system.

According to user reviews, the Oasis instantaneous gas water heater has a number of advantages:

1. The device turns on only when the water is turned on. This helps save energy resources.
2. Functions regardless of electricity, because its operation is carried out using replaceable batteries.
3. Depending on the season, you can choose the heating mode.
4. The device is designed according to a special design that helps reduce costs.

Geyser Oasis 26 kW, white

Roman
I needed a simple column for a country house. I wanted to purchase the simplest model, with a minimum of settings and options. I was thinking about buying a gas water heater from Junkers, but the Oasis 26 kW gas water heater caught my eye. The reviews about it are not the best, but I was captivated by the price - only 8500. It has been at the dacha for almost a year, we have not experienced any special problems, it is not loud, but not very quiet either, as befits a cheap model. There are main protective modules on board, and the capacity is 13 l/min. An excellent model for unpretentious users.

Advantages:

• A pleasant price that fully corresponds to the capabilities of the speaker;
• Easy control, only three knobs (I still don’t understand why the “winter-summer” switch is needed);
• Strict design, neat execution.

Flaws:

• Only open combustion chamber. I wanted to find a model with a closed combustion chamber, but it turned out that Oasis speakers only come with open chambers;
• Sometimes it goes out, and for no apparent reason.

Self-repair of gas boilers

Before you start repairing a gas boiler yourself, you need to identify the cause of the breakdown. Various elements of heating equipment can fail. Most often, the causes of breakdowns are: violation of operating requirements, poor quality of parts, impacts.

Volatile boilers often fail due to reset. Therefore, repair of a heating unit must begin with checking the settings and the presence of open contacts. When troubleshooting, the device is turned on at full power in the “Winter” mode. Repair of heating gas boilers begins with this step.

Repairing gas heating on your own is not always possible, and only if the faults are simple and noticeable. Only specialists can handle complex breakdowns

Also, we should not forget that gas boilers are dangerous equipment, so you need to handle them carefully, and under no circumstances try to repair the gas pipe and safety elements yourself
