Various heating and ventilation equipment is manufactured under the Oasis brand. Although the company's production facilities are located primarily in China, the traditions of manufacturing equipment themselves have deep German roots. The fact is that it was thanks to specialists from Germany that innovative production was launched, in which modern technologies and the latest technical developments were introduced. The quality of products is consistently high, and prices are optimal for customers.
Recently, products under the Oasis brand have been produced in Russia. Such radiators can be easily identified by their packaging, since it has the Russian tricolor on it.

Rating of Steel Panel Radiators
Why is it useful for you to study this rating? A must read!
Having once come across a rating of panel radiators on the Internet, I was discouraged by the nonsense that I read there.
After spending some time studying the ratings offered, I came to the conclusion that ordinary consumers need help . Almost none of the ratings I read contained useful and truthful information about steel panel radiators (however, this applies to any radiators). Almost all articles on this topic on the Internet are written by ordinary student copywriters with the goal of making money on an affiliate program. That is, if you see links to Yandex-Market or to various stores on a website with an article, then know that you are reading a useless text from a copywriter who does not understand anything about this topic, and the owners of this resource simply make money by clicking on links on their website. (Here is an example: https://expertology.ru/9-luchshikh-stalnykh-radiatorov-otopleniya/). They don’t care what they write - the main thing is more articles and more visitors. There are now more than 90% of such sites.
ATTENTION! Once again we warn you : DO NOT place steel radiators wherever you want. They cannot be used in all heating systems and not in all areas! Please check the installation location with us before purchasing.
Usually people, when choosing a radiator, look at only two factors: price and power . But this is a BIG mistake . Did you know that there are radiators that last 2-3 years , and others that last 20-30 years , but look and cost almost the same? Have you ever thought about what you will do if your radiator leaks in a year? Replace under warranty? Are you sure that you will be able to do this? Not all manufacturers are equally loyal to their customers. Do you know that a burst radiator can not only cause multimillion-dollar damage, but also injure? In fact, there are much more nuances when buying radiators than choosing a price and selecting heat transfer. But only specialists in this field know about these nuances, and very few people talk about them.
Our many years of experience and a decent volume in wholesale and retail sales of heating radiators allows us to create the most objective rating of steel panel radiators, focused specifically on indicators useful to consumers . Since our company is one of the few in Russia that provides full warranty support to customers, all complaints from tens of thousands of radiators sold go through us, including from other sales and installation organizations. This rating was compiled based on real statistics and the availability of information that is available only to a limited number of suppliers.
! Please note that we are not trying to advertise this or that product. We are a wholesale company and sell wholesale absolutely everything that is supplied to the heating market. We are not limited by our warehouse, like retail stores and construction hypermarkets. Therefore, we are completely objective when choosing the best equipment for retail sales. And nothing stops us from telling the truth about any manufacturer. Our reputation is most important to us!
How the rating was calculated
The rating includes models whose sales volume allows us to identify certain statistics. The rating is calculated based on such important indicators for the consumer as: quality , reliability , support , availability , price . The “ Quality ” parameter is determined by the quality of assembly, quality of painting, quality of material, and percentage of defects. “ Reliability ” is determined by customer requests for warranty, by reviews from installation organizations, and by service life. “ Support ” determines the level of technical support, the presence of official representation, and the ability to receive warranty service without any problems. “ Availability ” characterizes the availability of goods in Russian warehouses, the total quantity and variety of the model range.
Why is the “Heat dissipation” indicator, which they like to describe in non-professional ratings, not included in the comparison? Everything is very simple. All steel panel radiators are structurally the same, which means that with identical dimensions they will have almost equal power (+/- 5%). Anything else is physically impossible. Therefore, it is not reasonable to compare identical radiators in terms of power. And the large difference in power between different manufacturers indicated on the websites is due to the fact that it is measured with different Delta t parameters.
We apologize, but due to pressure and threats from some manufacturers who do not want to put up with objective reality, we are forced to remove items about the Quality and Reliability of radiators from the rating. But our knowledge and experience have not gone away.
The best steel panel radiators for retail consumers. Rating of the benefits of the purchase and possible problems in the future.

This rating does not include many little-known manufacturers from the budget line, which can be found on the Russian market. Now there are a lot of them. But they are not worth attention, because... the leaders have always been and will be the same. And new products of Russian and Turkish production appear only because of even lower prices, thanks to cheaper materials and lack of maintenance. Large construction hypermarkets are usually littered with such third-rate radiators, and they are also installed in new houses by developers.
If you still have questions about steel radiators or any others, we will be happy to help you figure it out. We have been doing this for more than 10 years and have earned a reputation as the most honest and friendly company in the radiator market for a reason.

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 of application and service life.
Bimetallic
The bimetallic radiator Oasis can be installed on centralized heating systems, as well as in closed systems of private houses. Thanks to their 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 channels under the decorative panel. They provide a high level of heat transfer.
- Steel. The material is used to manufacture the internal structure within which the coolant moves. The core is of high quality and characterized by mechanical strength. Thanks to this design, liquid cannot come into contact with the aluminum parts, so the risk of corrosion is reduced.
There are 2 models of bimetallic radiators in the product line: 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
Aluminum radiator 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, products are either injection molded or extruded. The first option is resistant to corrosion. It consists of 4-12 sections. Extrusion devices are small in size and have a smooth surface. Sections in this case consist of 3 interconnected blocks.
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 design is collapsible, installation of the product does not require much time. An aluminum radiator can operate at high pressure (16 atm.) at a coolant temperature of 110 degrees. To operate effectively, the system must be regularly purged of air.
Steel
Steel radiator Oasis Compact 11 500 900
For the production of steel radiators Oasis, cold-rolled metal is used, the thickness of which is 1.2 mm. Polyepoxy paint is sprayed onto the surface of the panel, which protects it from the negative influence of the external environment and gives it a decorative appearance. Models are connected from the side or bottom. The manufacturer offers devices 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 transfer, but heat up slowly. The efficiency is about 85%. They are resistant to mechanical damage, but cannot withstand increased pressure inside the pipes, and are also prone to corrosion.
Varieties
1. Steel batteries Oasis.
Radiators are made from cold-rolled metal 1.2 mm thick. The manufacturer uses electrophoresis and spraying with polyepoxy paint. The equipment is available with side (Compact) and bottom (Ventil) connections. By design, they come in 11 models, consisting of two panels (steel and sheathing) and 22 types - from four plates. Some types are equipped with additional stiffeners.
Low carbon steel Oasis radiators are available in sectional and tubular versions. In the first case, high strength is ensured, but the reason for the welded connection may be difficult to repair. The second option is characterized by small wall thickness.
According to customer reviews, the technical characteristics of Oasis heating radiators imply insignificant inertia. They heat up quite slowly, but also take a long time to cool down. The efficiency is about 85%. Types with bottom wiring include a thermostatic valve. Thermal power – 1190 W.
2. Aluminum batteries Oasis.
The manufacturer produces models by casting or extrusion. The products are coated with a special protective polymer coating. They are made taking into account the climatic characteristics of the regions, observing European standards.
The warranty period for aluminum radiators manufactured by Oasis is 15 years. Metal and plastic pipes can be used in the mains; heat transfer is fast and efficient. The design is dismountable, installation is carried out in a short time. They are designed to operate at high pressure (16 atmospheres) at a media temperature of 1100, so they can be used in a centralized heating system. But the equipment requires constant bleeding of air to avoid high levels of hydrogen.
- Cast models of Oasis aluminum heating radiators are highly resistant to corrosion. Available in sets from 4 to 12 sections.
- Extrusion types are small-sized devices with a smooth surface. Each section contains three blocks connected under high pressure, which provides improved performance.
Aluminum radiators Oasis are suitable for installation in centralized and individual heating systems. The center-to-center distance is 500 mm, the installation kit includes fasteners, a Mayevsky tap, and a blind plug. The most well-known brands of aluminum batteries - S 500, Premium 500/100 - are intended for servicing premises in cold weather and are characterized by low cost.
3. Bimetallic batteries.
The manufacturer uses two metals in production - steel and aluminum. The main advantage is that they are composite. Thanks to this, it is possible to increase the required number of sections to the required value, depending on the climate of the region. Oasis bimetallic radiators are designed to operate at a pressure of 30 atmospheres, so they are not afraid of changes in the system. The devices are resistant to aggressive substances; there are no restrictions on use for different types of premises.
The design is based on the technology of perpendicular steel collectors mounted in an aluminum housing of bimetallic radiators. The coolant circulates through the tubes without contacting the coating, providing convection and energy radiation. This allows you to completely eliminate corrosion and use the equipment in multi-story buildings.
There are two models: bimetallic radiator Oasis 500/80 premium and GMB. The number of sections is from 6 to 12. The outer surface has a polymer coating made in an electrostatic field. The manufacturer provides a warranty for up to 15 years. Thermal power – 1150-2300 W.
Installation methods
Before starting the installation of Oasis heating radiators, you need to decide on the installation method of the device. The following methods are used to fasten the product:
- Side. The pipe supplying 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 warm up worse. This will reduce heat transfer. This feature must be taken into account if 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 radiators must follow the operating instructions. It involves preliminary preparation of the coolant. It should have a pH in the range of 6.5-8.5, and a maximum heating temperature of 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 room temperature does not fall below 0 degrees;
- when bleeding air, do not illuminate the air vents with open fire;
- valves installed at the inlet/outlet open smoothly to avoid water hammer;
- Filters are installed on the supply risers to prevent the control and air valves from clogging;
- external cleaning of devices is carried out with soapy water or mild detergents - the use of abrasive powders is prohibited;
- If there is a need for frequent bleeding or breakdowns, consultation with a specialist is necessary.
After installation, before starting the system, the functionality of the radiators and the tightness of the connections are checked.
How to choose a panel heating radiator
Before purchasing such a panel radiator, you need to take into account many nuances, since this equipment has its own specifics. To understand all the nuances, Komsomolskaya Pravda turned to founder Vadim Sautenkov.
Aluminum radiators
These radiators are an excellent alternative to old cast iron radiators
Device type
As we wrote earlier, today in most cases three types of panel radiators are used: 11, 22 and 33. In the first case, this is a device that consists of one panel, without casings and an upper grille. In the second there is a panel radiator, which consists of two panels connected to each other by pipes, and closed with a casing. The third has three panels.
The choice between one type of device or another should be based on the calculation of the area of the room. So, about 100 W power is needed per square meter . You should also take into account the presence of windows in the room (+100 W each) and the presence of an external door (+200 W). In addition, the dimensions of the device must be equal to at least 80% of the width of the window opening.
Marking
When choosing a radiator, be sure to pay attention to the markings. The first number after the name means the height, the second the width of the device, and the third the number of sections .
Installation method
Before purchasing, be sure to pay attention to what installation method is provided by the manufacturer. So, most models are mounted on the wall, but there are exceptions when the radiator is installed on the floor on special legs. Some manufacturers provide both options.
Economical heaters
It is necessary to take into account not only the power, but also the efficiency of the device
Limit operating temperature
An important factor is the maximum temperature of the heater. In some radiators it is 80-90 degrees Celsius. For regions with extreme temperature changes, this will not be enough. You should pay attention to those models that maintain temperatures up to 100-110 degrees.
Main problems in operation
Due to air locks, the batteries warm up unevenly.
During operation, some problems may arise:
- blockages in heating pipes;
- air jams;
- decrease in efficiency due to improper operation or installation;
- the appearance of leaks in 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, heating devices require replacement. In addition, you must follow the operating rules.
