Ariston, a world-famous company for high-quality household products, has repeatedly proven its status and universal recognition to users. No matter what rating you open, you can find its equipment on any site. The company has its branches in more than 150 countries around the world, which is why its products are so widespread and in demand. Including Ariston boiler models. We will talk about them in detail in the next 2 minutes.

Operating principle of the Ariston water heater

The principle of operation of the Ariston boiler is no different in general terms - there is a tank in which the water is heated using an electric element. The essence of all devices lies in the details, including:

• water heating speed;
• initial power;
• amount of electricity consumed;
• price of equipment;
• the ability to independently replace parts;
• installation conditions and rules.

The heating time of Ariston depends on which heating element is inserted inside the drive: dry or wet.

A more technology-friendly option is to use a dry heating element, since it does not leave behind a large accumulation of scale on the walls. Some types of Ariston water heaters can be purchased starting from 4-5 thousand rubles.At the same time, it will look no worse than its expensive competitors.

First, the boiler heats the water to a set temperature, and then turns off, maintaining the temperature with heat-insulated walls. After the indicator decreases, the automation is triggered and the heating element is turned on again. And so on in a circle. You can even customize the device's on/off ranges to save more energy.

The dimensions of the Ariston boiler allow installation of the device both on the wall and on the floor. First think about where you will place the unit: some have weak walls, while others do not have space on the floor. Everything is selected individually.

The functional features of one or another model differ in the size of the Ariston water heater tank. There are devices for both 30 and up to 150 liters. But think for yourself: why would you buy a 100-liter device for one or two people in a family if it will only “eat” the electrics, like for ten? For 3-4 people, according to statistics, an 80-liter tank is enough.

Where does the Ariston water heater work?

It is equally important to know the areas in which it is unacceptable to install electronics, otherwise they will simply fail. The operating instructions for each model clearly state the conditions for using the boiler.

The main conditions under which heaters cannot be installed:

• frost - temperature changes will not only prevent the water from heating up, but will also damage all electronics;
• sunlight - in general, nothing should be placed in direct sunlight. Especially lately, when the sun has more harmful effects than benefits;
• power outages - power instability in the network will lead to a short circuit or overload of the boiler. Then this one is just for trash;
• gases and dust - it is strictly forbidden to park the car in places where dust, ash, corrosive gases and substances actively “live”;
• dampness - constant high humidity in the room will affect not only the tank, but also the connecting elements. Before you know it, the wiring will short out and all the hinges will corrode.

Why is the Ariston water heater chosen over other boilers?

The product perfectly describes the “Price-quality” compliance parameter. And negative reviews are received only when someone does not have enough knowledge or experience to repair or install the unit correctly.

The main advantages of the company’s heaters, which users have long found:

• fast heating of even a large tank;
• use of “batch heating”;
• preliminary purification from harmful substances before supplying water to the consumer;
• economical filling of the tank;
• use of anti-corrosion anodes with magnesium coating;
• a wide range of models both in size and power.

Which water heater from Ariston is better to buy?

In short, any device definitely deserves your attention. Below are the boilers that are most often purchased from online stores:

1. ABS VLS (VELIS) ​​EVO PW 50 - storage water heater with electric elements, thermometer, fast heating function. At the same time, additional protection is provided against sudden switching on when the tank is empty.
2. NTS 80V 1.5K SU 3700366 is a storage water heater for 80 liters. Has external temperature control.
3. ABS VLS EVO INOX PW 80 D is another “friend” of the previous 80-liter model. There are 2 heaters built into the body and a stepped tank for batch heating.
4. ABS PRO R 100 V - 100-liter storage boiler.The model can be installed in a vertical position. Overheating protection and reliable thermoregulation are provided.
5. ABS ANDRIS LUX 30 is a “warmer” of minimal size – only 30 liters. The tank is made of steel with an economical inner layer that does not allow heat to escape to the outside.

How to connect an Ariston water heater so that it works for a long time and without repairs

To begin with, we choose the place where we will mount the installation (floor or wall) and we need to make sure that the pipe for supplying cold liquid already exists. The most advantageous location is right next to the source of water intake. This way we will reduce heat loss at the outlet.

If there is a collector, we immediately connect the “cold pipe” to the system. If you didn’t think about the presence of a boiler in advance, just cut a triple adapter into any place in your water supply. This is not difficult to do in a plastic pipe. For metal ones, simply place the adapter on the thread, having previously wrapped all joints with sealant.

In a separate place we install a mixer for emergency shutdown of the cold water supply.

To properly connect the water heater, you need:

1. Do not confuse the hot and cold water inlets. A check valve is installed on the latter - it is often included with the boiler. Hot – mounted on the pipe.
2. We always use fume tape as a sealant for threaded connections.
3. You still need to install a tee on the cold pipe, on one side of which we place a relief valve. We install a tap for emergency drainage on the second side. The next step is to connect to the water supply itself.
4. Hot water is adjusted through a shut-off valve.
5. When connecting pipes of different diameters or materials, do not forget about adapters.

How to connect your device to the network:

1. You need to install a separate power supply (or RCD) into the shield, which we attach to the central “plug”. From the installed RCD we issue a 3-core cable to the boiler.
2. We take a 16 A switch. Installation is carried out in a damp place, so the sockets can behave unpredictably - but such a switch is quite enough. We attach our shutdown system to a separate box to protect it from moisture. Believe me, doing this is much cheaper than buying all the moisture-resistant sockets and adapters.
3. We connect the switch and the RCD with a cable.
4. Remove the bottom cover of the boiler and attach the wires to the heater.
5. We connect the output of the machine to the water storage tank.
6. We connect ground, phase and zero.

Before turning it on, we check all the wires, sealing and quality of connections. Then open the cold water tap and wait until the tank is completely filled. Use a hot water mixer to release excess air. And only after that you can safely turn on the machine and start the system.
