Performance reviews
Oasis radiators are popular with modern consumers because they have many advantages. Buyers are attracted by the excellent technical characteristics of bimetallic models. For the reason that the heating system in a city apartment can give out any surprises such as pressure drops, the presence of aggressive additives in water and water hammer, the best option, according to buyers, is precisely the bimetallic model. Such radiators cost a little more, but you can not be afraid of leaks, and the service life is quite high, it can reach 15 years.
Oasis radiators, reviews of which are often the most positive, are popular with consumers also for the reason that they are a good combination of price and quality. Some believe that this manufacturer is one of the leaders in this area. A number of buyers are quite satisfied with the steel models, which are installed in stand-alone systems and have been working flawlessly for several years. Heat transfer from such models is high. And the appearance is quite attractive, which is especially noticeable after there were cast-iron radiators in the house.
Advantages and disadvantages of Oasis radiators
The Oasis battery, depending on the material of manufacture, has the following advantages:
- inertness to aggressive substances;
- the possibility of installation on any heating structures;
- high degree of strength;
- no restrictions on use;
- good level of heat transfer, contributing to the rapid warming up of the room;
- relatively low cost of aluminum and steel models;
- the possibility of using in multi-storey and one-storey buildings.
Oasis heating radiators also have disadvantages.Not every user can afford bimetallic models, since their cost is higher than other types. Steel and aluminum products are subject to corrosive processes, and also have low mechanical strength.
Reviews of steel radiators
In the process of manufacturing such batteries, a low-carbon metal is used, which is subjected to a special heat treatment, degreasing and applying a protective layer. Such batteries are available in several versions, they can be supplemented with stiffening ribs. According to buyers, such batteries are sectional and tubular, the latter differ in less impressive wall thickness, while the former cannot be repaired, but are distinguished by increased strength.
Their cost is much higher, and the elements are connected by welding. Customers like the high efficiency, which is as high as 87%. It should also be noted the low inertia, which is expressed in slow heating and rapid cooling, which is also characteristic of aluminum radiators. Users note that steel radiators are susceptible to corrosion, so it is not recommended to drain the coolant during the off-season. If you want to choose such heating batteries, then you should take into account the specifics of pressure testing, the acidity of the medium and the nominal pressure. Steel radiators are suitable for private buildings, as well as houses with individual heating.
Main types
Bimetallic heating radiator 004 VGB 500/100
Oasis radiators are made of several materials: steel, aluminum or metal alloy (bimetallic). Each type has its own scope, service life.
Bimetallic
Bimetallic radiator Oasis can be installed on centralized heating systems, as well as in closed systems of private houses. Due to the special design, such products are not harmed by pressure surges in pipes up to 45 atmospheres. The following materials are used in the manufacture of the device:
- Aluminum. Heat exchangers are made from it, through which heat enters the room. There are a large number of air ducts under the decorative panel. They provide a high level of heat dissipation.
- Steel. The material is used for the manufacture of an internal structure, inside which the coolant moves. The core is of high quality and mechanical strength. Thanks to this design, the liquid cannot come into contact with the aluminum parts, so the risk of corrosion is reduced.
The product line includes 2 models of bimetallic radiators: Oasis 500/80 Premium, GMB. The minimum number of sections in the device is 6, but if necessary, they can be increased to 12.
Aluminum
Radiator aluminum Oasis 350/80
Aluminum radiators Oasis are characterized by fast heating and slow cooling. They are installed on both centralized and individual heating systems. According to the manufacturing method, the products are injection molded and extrusion. The first option is corrosion resistant. It consists of 4-12 sections. The extrusion tool is small in size and smooth on the surface. In this case, the sections consist of 3 blocks connected to each other.
The outer surface of the product is coated with a polymer coating that performs a protective function. Aluminum radiators are made taking into account the climatic characteristics of the regions, therefore they are well suited for our country. The warranty period is 15 years. In parallel with such radiators, metal or plastic pipes can be used.
Since the structure is collapsible, it does not take much time to install the product. The aluminum radiator can operate at high pressure (16 atm.) At a coolant temperature of 110 degrees.For efficient operation, the system must be regularly vented.
Steel
Steel radiator Oasis Compact 11 500 900
For the manufacture of steel radiators Oasis used cold-rolled metal, the thickness of which is 1.2 mm. Polyepoxy paint is sprayed on the surface of the panel, which protects it from the negative influence of the external environment and gives a decorative look. Connecting models lateral or bottom. The manufacturer offers fixtures consisting of 2 or 4 panels. Some models are equipped with additional stiffeners.
You can purchase sectional or tubular options. The first type is difficult to repair, while the second has thin walls. Steel radiators have good heat dissipation, but they heat up slowly. The efficiency is about 85%. They are resistant to mechanical damage, but they do not withstand the increased pressure inside the pipes, and are also prone to corrosion.
Negative characteristics of aluminum batteries
Oasis aluminum radiators are pressure sensitive and can therefore be operated at 16 MPa or less. The mechanical strength of such products is not high enough, since the metal is soft, therefore, care should be taken during operation. When using aluminum batteries, it is necessary to bleed air from the circuit from time to time; if this is not done, then there is a risk of an increase in the concentration of hydrogen in the pipes. Among other things, the devices must be handled as carefully as possible, because the protective layer can be damaged. The described products can be installed in stand-alone systems, since the central heating mains create conditions that are not suitable for them. The overall advantages are low weight and attractive appearance.
Installation methods
Before starting the installation of Oasis heating radiators, you need to decide on how to install the device. The following methods are used to fix the product:
- Side. The pipe supplying the coolant is connected to the upper radiator pipe, and the outlet is carried out through the lower one. If you increase the number of sections, the opposite section of the structure will heat up worse. In this case, the heat transfer will decrease. This feature must be taken into account when it is necessary to add sections.
- Lower. This option is not the most effective, since the efficiency in this case decreases. This design is suitable for installation in systems where the heating pipe passes under the floor covering.
Which connection method will be used depends on the type of heating system.
Operation of Oasis radiators
The owner of the radiators must follow the operating instructions. It provides for the preliminary preparation of the coolant. It should have a pH in the range of 6.5-8.5, and the maximum heating temperature is 110 degrees. It is also important to adhere to these rules:
- if necessary, or during the end of the heating season, the radiator is disconnected from the system;
- since water will remain in the system, you need to ensure that the temperature in the room does not drop below 0 degrees;
- when bleeding air, the air vents must not be illuminated with open fire;
- taps installed at the inlet / outlet open smoothly to avoid water hammer;
- filters are installed on the supply risers, which do not allow clogging of the control and air valve;
- external cleaning of devices is carried out with soapy water or mild agents - it is prohibited to use abrasive powders;
- if there is a need for frequent air bleeding or breakdowns, a specialist consultation is necessary.
After installation, before starting the system, the operability of the radiators and the tightness of the connections are checked.

Warms great and looks pretty
Disadvantages:
Didn't notice
Comment:
For several years now we have installed this radiator and are very pleased that it was installed. First of all, in the winter months it is very warm at home with it, and when it gets warmer outside so that you don't cook at home, you can reduce the heat and the temperature changes very quickly because it is aluminum. Secondly, it looks much nicer than the old cast iron and takes up much less space, despite the fact that it has 10 sections. For the price, the perfect combination of quality / price. It is really light compared to cast iron radiators, because when you bought it in the store, it was quite easy to convey it.
The main problems in operation
Batteries do not warm up evenly due to air locks
During operation, some problems may arise:
- blockages in heating pipes;
- air locks;
- decrease in efficiency due to improper operation or installation;
- the appearance of a leak in the places where plugs and regulators are installed;
- incorrect calculation of the number of sections.
Oasis radiators for Russian heating structures are chosen more often than others due to their low cost. However, you need to correctly calculate the number of devices themselves, as well as the number of sections in them. If installed incorrectly, the heating devices must be replaced. In addition, you need to follow the operating rules.
Why choose bimetal
Such radiators are chosen because of the all-steel manifold; manufacturing technology, which consists in injection molding; as well as a small volume of coolant, which provides high energy efficiency and low inertia. Bimetallic heating batteries are manufactured according to a certain technology, which provides for the application of durable paint in two layers at the final stage. As a result, it is possible to obtain a perfectly white color.
