Consider the basic rules of how to use the Ariston water heater. Each device comes with a user manual, but often everything is written there in obscure technical terms.

Turning on

If you are turning on the boiler for the first time, you should do the following:


After that, it remains to wait until the liquid heats up and start using hot water. For convenience, you can mix cold tap water with warm water from the boiler to achieve the desired temperature.

Water heating

Depending on the volume of the tank, the time of the first heating will differ. It takes about an hour to heat 30 liters of water to 65 degrees, 50 liters two hours, and 80 liters three hours. Also, the time depends on the heat of the incoming water and the power of the apparatus. In winter, the water comes in cold and it will take longer to warm up.


Boilers with more powerful heating elements spend less time and more electricity on primary heating. For example, Ariston Platinum SI 80 H with a volume of 80 liters and a heating element of 1.5 kW heats water from 20 to 65 degrees in 3 hours and 6 minutes.

For two people, a volume of 30 liters is enough, fifty is enough for a family of 3 people. An eighty-liter model should be enough for 4-5 people living in the room where the water heater is installed. Also, the consumption largely depends on the habits and purposes of using hot water.

Use of shower and bath

If you plan to take a bath, you should take a larger volume of the tank. For these purposes, Ariston TI TRONIC INDUSTRIAL for 300 hp is well suited. To make sure there is enough water, set the thermostat to a higher temperature. This will allow you to dilute the hot water more strongly and due to this one tank can be enough for several people.

When using the shower, initially spend less water. At the same time, you can save even more by turning off the faucet from time to time, using water only to wash off the soap.

Components of the electric storage water heater Ariston.

Electric storage water heater Ariston consists of:

  • outer case;
  • bracket;
  • internal tank;
  • hot water outlet;
  • magnesium anode;
  • cold water inlet;
  • heat insulator;
  • thermostat sleeves;
  • heating element (TEN);
  • flange;
  • thermostat;
  • power cable;
  • regulator knobs.

To connect the Ariston boiler correctly, you must follow the manufacturer's instructions.

First, the water heater is mounted on a wall or a supporting surface and a drain is provided from water pipe(cold water). It is most advantageous to install the device as close as possible to the source of water supply - this allows you to minimize heat loss.

If there is a collector in the system, a separate cold water supply pipe is transferred to the installation site of the water heater. In the absence of a collector, the nearest segment of the water pipe is cut, a standard tee is installed at the cut site.

The installation method of the tee depends on the material from which the pipes are made. On plastic fasteners is carried out using a special soldering iron, on metal - threaded.

A ball valve is installed on a separate section of the water supply system, designed to shut off the supply of cold water.


Scheme for connecting an electric storage water heater Ariston.

To connect the water heater to the water supply, you should:

  1. Pay attention to the hot and cold water pipes - it is important not to confuse them. A check valve is installed on a cold one, it can be included in the standard kit. Hot water is connected via a pipe. First, a cold water pipe is mounted, then a hot one.
  2. A special tape is wound on the threads as a sealant and sealant, this is recommended by the manufacturer.
  3. A tee is installed on the cold water pipe, at the bottom of which there is a relief valve. A tap is attached to the side to completely drain the water from the tank in case of emergency possible under abnormal pressure or heat. A shut-off valve and an adapter are installed under the tee at a short distance. The next step is connecting to the water supply.
  4. Connection to hot water is also made by installing a shut-off valve.
  5. In the case of connecting different metals, adapters should be used.

The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:

  1. V switchboard a separate machine (RCD) is installed, it is connected to a central automatic fuse. A three-core cable is pulled from a separate RCD to the boiler, which is placed in an external cable channel (or a special gate is punched in the wall).
  2. It is recommended to install a 16 A fuse as a switch, since the socket and plug are subject to heat and moisture. In addition, the cost of waterproof electrical equipment is higher than the cost of the machine. The "switch" is closed in a compact cabinet with a removable panel.
  3. A separate RCD machine and a “switch” are connected by a wire.
  4. A three-wire wire is connected to the heating element, for this the bottom panel is removed from the water heater.
  5. Then the output of the machine is connected to the boiler.
  6. The next step is to wire the ground, phase and zero lines to the appropriate connectors.

Scheme of connecting the Ariston water heater to the mains.

Before turning on the device, you must make sure there are no leaks and correct position flange (strictly in the middle). Then fill the tank cold water and open the hot water faucet to release the air. After the air is released, the valve closes and a trial run is carried out.

How to identify a malfunction

To carry out repair work, the user needs to notice a malfunction in the operation of the water heater in time. Ariston boilers are often equipped with an electronic display on which messages appear in case of equipment failures.

Direct signs of a malfunction can be:

  • operation of the machine at the moment the boiler is turned on - this indicates a malfunction of the heating element;
  • heating water above the maximum allowable temperature - this indicates a failure of the thermostat;
  • heating water below the required indicators - this may indicate contamination of the heating element, the appearance of scale;
  • drips at the bottom of the tank and on its walls;
  • breakdown of the information board, which most often does not cause significant failures in the overall functionality of the device, but can reduce comfort during its use.

Availability autonomous system water heating provides not only comfortable living, but also independence from the whims of utilities. The performance of such systems, their efficiency and safety depends on the technical characteristics of the Ariston boiler, the connection scheme and the quality of the installation.

The key to a long and trouble-free service is compliance with all operating rules and timely Maintenance. Ignoring the requirements prescribed by the manufacturer can lead to premature failure of both individual parts of the boiler and the entire product as a whole. In addition, the possibility of electric shock increases many times over.

The instruction manual contains all the necessary information regarding the installation, connection, conditions of use and the frequency of maintenance of the Ariston storage water heater. In addition, the document includes a list of the most common problems and a method for fixing them yourself, however, for effective solution problems will require knowledge of the design and basic principles of operation of the product.

The device and principle of operation of the water heater "Ariston"

A modern Ariston boiler for 30, 50, 80 and 100 liters is a hermetic structure consisting of the following parts and assemblies:

  1. storage tank:
  2. Electric heating element (TENA);
  3. Magnesium or zinc sacrificial electrode;
  4. Tuning and control unit;
  5. Casing.

The inner surface of the tank must undergo anti-corrosion treatment. Depending on the cost of the product, various modifications may have as anti-corrosion protection:

  • Titanium coating;
  • glass-porcelain coating;
  • A layer of heat-resistant enamel resistant to aggressive compounds.

Besides, expensive models water heaters from the premium manufacturer "Ariston" can have all-metal welded storage tanks made of alloyed stainless steel.

The air gap between the casing and the inner container is filled with a polymeric heat-insulating composition (most often, polyurethane foam). Thermal insulation allows you to noticeably slow down the cooling process, thereby reducing energy consumption.

Heating elements are divided into two main types: "wet" and "dry". Wet are called heating elements that come into direct contact with the heated liquid. In the process of interaction with the working environment, a persistent coating of insoluble scale is formed on the outer surface of the heating element, which prevents normal heat transfer. For corrosion protection of heating elements and inner surface tank is zinc or magnesium anode.

The functionality, informativeness and ergonomics of the water heater from the company "Ariston" largely depends on the design and design of the control unit and settings. There are two types of control mechanisms: electronic and mechanical. Digital systems has an attractive appearance and differs in accuracy of adjustment, however, it is extremely sensitive to voltage fluctuations.

The mechanical unit looks “simpler”, and the adjustment accuracy is not the same, however, the reliability of such devices fully compensates for these shortcomings. In addition, the price of models with electronic adjustment is much higher.

The casing of the unit can be made of both metal and polymer materials. The most common is the cylindrical shape, but models of other configurations are in demand.

How to choose the volume of the water heater

Boiler capacity is one of the main criteria to consider. Customer reviews and statistical analysis allowed to determine the required amount of hot water depending on the number of consumers.

For one person, a 30-liter Ariston heater is enough. If two people live in one apartment at the same time, Ariston for 50 liters will fully satisfy the need for hot water. A family of three or four people will need "Ariston" for 80 liters. If we are talking about providing a private cottage or a small restaurant, the best option would be "Ariston" for 100 liters or more.

Operating instructions for the water heater "Ariston"

The beginning of operation can be considered the installation and connection of the boiler to a centralized cold water supply system and electrical network. The quality of installation depends on the safety, efficiency and service life of the product. If, for one reason or another, the boiler is put into operation on its own, special attention should be paid to the points below.

It is necessary to start work on mounting and connecting an Ariston brand water heater by carefully studying the instructions attached to it.

  1. Since the power consumed by the device is quite large, it is necessary to make sure that the characteristics of the electrical wiring used for connection fully correspond to the expected loads and has. The best option for connecting to the mains is a separate cable from the switch cabinet or shield.
  2. Do not use components with visual defects, damaged threaded sections, etc. Deserves special attention safety valve included in the package.
  3. Since the mass of the product is quite large, and the temperature of the water contained in it can reach up to +75 0 С, the boiler must be fixed to the bearing surface on metal diameter not less than 10 mm. It is allowed to use plastic dowels of the same load capacity.
  4. Installation of supply and discharge pipelines must be carried out in strict accordance with the diagram attached to the heater by the manufacturer.
  5. The place of connection to the power supply must be reliably protected from condensate, dampness and direct contact with water.
  6. You can connect Ariston to the power supply only after filling the storage tank with cold water, otherwise the water heater heater may fail.
  7. If all the work is done correctly and the product is working properly, after switching on, the corresponding indicator should light up, indicating that the boiler is working.

Water heater Ariston: operation, maintenance and repair

To ensure efficient and safe work you must know and follow the basic rules for using the product.

  1. It is forbidden to turn on the device until the storage tank is completely filled.
  2. Mechanical or other damage to electrical cables is not allowed;
  3. Before starting the operation of the Ariston water heater, make sure that the grounding is in good condition;
  4. In the event of a malfunction, the unit should be immediately disconnected from the power supply, drain the water and contact the Ariston service center.

Even with proper operation, timely maintenance of the system is necessary to maintain operability. First of all, this is due to the low quality of the water supplied. Despite the presence of filters, a large amount of chemical compounds and mechanical impurities enter the inner tank, contributing to the formation of scale and other contaminants. Regular and internal surface of the drive will significantly increase the life of the boiler. Scheduled maintenance includes:

Preliminary draining of water from the storage tank;

Disconnection of plumbing fittings;

Dismantling the body of the water heater;

Cleaning the heating element and the inner surface of the tank without the use of particularly aggressive detergents, avoiding mechanical and abrasive effects as far as possible;

Assessing the condition of the magnesium anode and, if necessary, replacing it.

The conservation and subsequent activation of the boiler deserves special consideration.

How to turn on the Ariston water heater after winter: instruction manual

If the use of the device in the cold season is not planned, measures should be taken to preserve the system, and, above all, the water heater itself. For this you need:

  1. Completely drain the water from the storage tank;
  2. Disconnect the plumbing fittings from the inlet and outlet pipes;
  3. Clean the heating element and the inner surface of the tank;
  4. Copiously lubricate the threaded surface of the nozzles with grease or other grease and wrap with rags or PVC film.

To turn on the Ariston heater after winter, you must:

  1. Clean the pipes from grease residues;
  2. Connect the device to the main pipelines;
  3. Make sure that the grounding and electrical wiring are in good condition;
  4. Fill storage tank cold water;
  5. Turn on power.

Important! Connecting an empty storage heater to the mains is strictly prohibited!

Due to the simplicity of design, reliability and affordable price, Ariston for 30, 50, 80 and 100 liters is deservedly popular. Wide the lineup allows you to choose a model according to your needs and financial capabilities. However, we should not forget that only full compliance with the operating instructions and timely maintenance will ensure efficient work and prevent premature failure of the Ariston boiler.

Water heaters are designed to heat the volume of water to a predetermined temperature and further maintain the temperature in automatic mode.

The water heating time depends on the power of the heating element and on the volume of the water heater.

  1. The heating time of a water heater with a capacity of 15 liters with a heating element (heater) of 1.2 kW from 15°C to 60°C is approximately 45 minutes.
  2. The heating time of a water heater with a capacity of 100 liters with a heating element (heater) of 1.5 kW from 15°C to 60°C is approximately 3 hours 50 minutes.

Water heaters are equipped with:

  • water heater
  • Safety valve
  • Bracket (for models up to 30 l inclusive)
  • Installation and operation instructions
  • Warranty card (issued by the seller)
  • Factory packaging

Principle of operation and main elements

The water in the water heater is heated to the set temperature. When the hot water tap is opened, cold water begins to flow into the water heater through the cold water supply pipe. Cold water coming from below displaces previously heated water through the hot water pipe coming from the top of the unit. In this way, hot water, starting from the top of the tank, it enters the consumer, and from below the water heater is filled with cold water.

The thermostat is activated and the heating element (heater) starts heating the water again to the set temperature. In thermoelectric models, water heating in the water heater can also be carried out using a built-in coil, which is connected to the heating system.

The main elements of the water heater are:

  1. The inner tank is made of steel and is protected from the corrosive effects of water by either fine enamel or enamel with a high titanium content. (depending on the model) or made of stainless steel.
  2. Thermal insulation - made of polyurethane foam, ensures minimal heat loss even when the water heater is turned off.
  3. Temperature regulator - sets the desired water temperature and is located either outside or under the cover, depending on the model.
  4. Thermostat - monitors the set temperature and controls the supply voltage to the heating element (heater).
  5. Safety valve - installed at the inlet to the water heater and prevents the return of water to the supply water supply line and protects the tank from pressure above 8 bar (atm.)
  6. Magnesium anode - additional protection of the inner tank against corrosion.

Installation

To install the purchased equipment, you can use the paid services of our service center specialists (tel. TsTO "Elves" - 270-39-12, 268-96-46), who will carry out all the necessary work.

You can also use the services of any other qualified professionals. However, in this case, Merloni TermoSanitari is not responsible for damage caused by incorrect installation and disregard for the recommendations of this manual, namely:

  1. The electrical connection must be carried out in accordance with the rules in section "2.3. Electrical connection".
  2. The safety valve included in the scope of supply must not be plugged or replaced.
  3. Installation is recommended to be carried out by qualified personnel.

For ease of installation directly under the sink, the 10 l and 15 l models, which have the letter "S" in the designation, have a pipe supply from above.

To reduce heat loss along the length of the pipes, the device should be installed as close as possible to the point of hot water extraction. To facilitate the maintenance of the device, leave space for free access to electrical parts (approximately 0.5 m).

For water heaters large capacity(from 200 liters), which have a recirculation outlet, in the case of remote hot water extraction points, it is recommended to organize recirculation.

Water heater mounting

A) Models with a capacity of 10 to 30 liters inclusive

Attach the supplied bracket to the wall. The fittings must support twice the weight of the water heater filled with water.

Slide the heater onto the tabs of the bracket and, pressing down slightly, fit onto them.

C) Wall-mounted models with a capacity of 50 to 200 liters inclusive

The wall mount brackets must be capable of supporting three times the weight of the heater filled with water. It is recommended to use metal fasteners with a diameter of 10 mm (screws, screws, hooks, etc.)

Floor installation

Floor water heaters from 200 to 500 liters are installed only on the floor and have legs included in the delivery. To prevent the appliance from tipping over, install the feet symmetrically so that the weight of the water heater is evenly distributed over the three support points. Fix the legs by screwing them to the walls of the water heater.

Connection to the water supply system

The hoses and connections connected to the water heater must be able to withstand both operating pressure and a temperature of at least 80°C.

Standard connection

With a standard connection, the water heater operates at a pressure determined by the pressure in the line.

Connection of the inlet pipe of the water heater to the water supply system is carried out through the safety valve included in the delivery set.

For ease of maintenance, when connecting to the water supply system, it is recommended to add a tee outlet between the inlet pipe of the water heater and the safety valve, to which to connect a tap to drain water from the water heater (in order to avoid accidental openings, it is better if it is opened with a special key).

Do not use too much force when screwing in the safety valve to avoid breakage.

The safety valve has two functions:

  • allows water to pass through in only one direction check valve)
  • at pressures above 8 bar, it bleeds water through the hole on the side (calibrated to 8 bar)

The appearance of water droplets from the opening of the safety valve during water heating is natural process and is associated with the expansion of water in the tank when heated.

Under no circumstances should the valve opening be blocked!

If the water pressure in the line exceeds 5 bar (atmospheres), a pressure reducer should be installed after the water meter.

Connection "with open outlet"

When using an electric water heater for one point of consumption, it is possible to use an "open outlet" scheme.

To do this, use the appropriate valves and connect according to the diagram in fig. 2 in the instruction manual.

The installation of a safety valve is not mandatory, but to prevent the return of water to the water supply system, its installation is still desirable.

Note. This scheme is rarely used, since it is impossible to use a standard mixer.

Connection to an open water tank (cottage option)

If water enters the water heater by gravity from the tank, then the tee for distributing water from the tank to the water heater and other needs must be higher than the top point of the water heater.

Electrical connection

The power supply is connected directly to the thermostat terminals using a cable of rated cross section (e.g. three-wire copper cable 3x1.5 mm²), while grounding is mandatory. The ground wire is connected to the terminal with the symbol.

The supply cable must be led through the hole at the back of the machine and connected to the thermostat terminals and the earth terminal.

B) For models with a capacity of 50 to 500 liters inclusive, the supply cable is connected to the thermostat terminals and the earth terminal through the provided hole in the plastic cover of the water heater. Attach the cable to the cover using the clip provided.

To disconnect the heater from the mains, use a two-pole switch (preferably automatic) with a distance between open contacts of at least 3 mm (power cable and two-pole switch are not included in the delivery set).

Make sure that the mains voltage corresponds to the value indicated on the name plate of the heater (nameplate).

Turn on and work

Commissioning

Make sure the heater flange is centered. If it moves slightly, correct its position by loosening and tightening the nut(s).

Immediately before switching on, fill the water heater with water by opening the cold water supply valve and the hot water valve to expel the air. After filling the water heater, close the hot water faucet, inspect the machine to make sure it is not leaking. Turn on the water heater. For models with a capacity of 10 to 30 liters, it is necessary to turn on the switch directly on the device itself.

The control thermostat controls the operation of the machine.

In heating mode, the indicator light is on.

The cold water inlet pipe may become hot during operation.

Before each subsequent use, make sure that the water heater is filled with water by opening the hot water tap and making sure that water flows.

Temperature control

For the thermostat maximum setting temperature ranges from 68 to 75°C.

The temperature can be adjusted by turning the knob connected to the thermostat (for models with this knob) or by turning the thermostat adjusting screw with a screwdriver (for models without a knob, to do this, remove the plastic cover).

It is recommended to set the regulator to position "E". In the absence of an external regulator, this is approximately 75% of the maximum. In this case, the device operates in an economical mode, significantly, the rate of scale formation is reduced.

A) For models with a capacity of 10 to 30 liters inclusive

An increase in temperature is achieved by turning the screw clockwise, and a decrease - counterclockwise.

C) For models with a capacity of 50 to 500 liters inclusive

Decreasing the temperature is achieved by turning the screw clockwise and increasing it counterclockwise (as shown graphically on the heating level indicator or marked with "+" and "-" signs).

If the water heater is left unattended for a long time, disconnect the water heater from the electrical network and turn off the tap in the cold water supply line.

Shutdown for the winter

If the water heater is not used for winter period(for example, in a country house), all the water must be drained to prevent freezing of the water in the water heater.

To do this, disconnect the water heater from the electrical network, turn off the tap in the cold water supply line, open the tap on the outlet pipe and drain the water from the inlet pipe (by unscrewing the safety valve or opening the tee tap).

Models 10 UR and 15 UR must be removed from the wall and turned over to drain the water.

Maintenance and current repairs

Routine repairs and maintenance are recommended to be carried out by specialists with the necessary qualifications.

Replacement of individual parts

Before carrying out any repair or maintenance operation, disconnect the appliance from the mains!

Replacing the thermostat and indicator light

A) For models with a capacity of 10 to 30 liters inclusive

To gain access to the thermostat, unscrew and remove the front cover of the water heater.

The thermostat is removed after unscrewing the two fixing screws (without draining the water from the tank).

To replace a faulty indicator bulb, remove the thermostat by unscrewing the two fixing screws, disconnect the terminals and unscrew the bulb from the socket.

B) For models with a capacity of 50 to 500 liters inclusive

To gain access to the thermostat, unscrew and remove the plastic cover of the water heater. The thermostat is removed from the terminals of the heating element with a slight effort (without draining the water from the tank). To replace a faulty indicator bulb, after removing the plastic cover, disconnect the terminals and remove the bulb from the socket.

On models with a capacity of 500 l, the adjustment knob must be removed before removing the plastic cover; remove the thermostat from the mounting plate by unscrewing the mounting screws, remove the sensors from the sleeve.

Replacing the heating element

The water heater must be emptied before working on the heating element. To do this, turn off the tap in the cold water supply line, open the tap on the outlet pipe and drain the water from the inlet pipe (by unscrewing the safety valve or opening the tee tap).

Models 10 UR and 15 UR must be removed from the wall and turned over.

A) For models with a capacity of 10 to 30 liters inclusive (And models SG 50, 80, 100)

  • Remove the front plastic cover;
  • Disconnect the power terminals and the ground terminal, unscrew the nut;
  • Remove the flange holder, then, holding the bolt with pliers, press the flange inwards;
  • Now the flange can be pulled out by turning it 900;
  • When reinstalling everything, make sure that the flange gasket, thermostat and heating element are installed correctly.

B) For models with a capacity of 50 to 500 liters inclusive (except models SG 50,80,100)

  • Remove the plastic cover;
  • Disconnect the power and ground terminals;
  • When fixing the flange with five bolts, unscrew the bolts and remove the flange;
  • When fixing the flange with a clamp and a bolt, unscrew the nut and, pressing on the flange with a movement directed towards the inside of the apparatus, remove the flange by turning it by 90°;
  • The heating element is connected to the flange;
  • When reinstalling everything, make sure that the flange gasket, thermostat and heating element are installed correctly. For horizontal models, the heater must be mounted turned down.

Replacing the rubber gasket

When dismantling the flange, it is advisable to replace rubber gasket to a new one.

Regular maintenance

The scale can be carefully scraped off from the dismantled heating element so as not to damage its protective surface, or the heating element can be treated with substances designed to remove scale.

For additional corrosion protection, Merloni Thermosanitary water heaters are equipped with oversized magnesium anodes. With the aggressive properties of water, the magnesium anode wears out in 1-2 years.

The condition of the magnesium anode should be checked YEARLY. In case of severe wear, the magnesium anode must be replaced!

If the magnesium anode is worn out (residual length less than 5 cm), the warranty for the tank is void.

To replace the magnesium anode, remove the heating element flange, unscrew the old magnesium anode and screw in the new one.

Following the rules of regular maintenance will allow you to ensure a long service life of the water heater.

When the bipolar protective device trips

In the event of water overheating, a thermal fuse (according to C.E.I. regulations) breaks the electrical circuit on both sides of the heating element. In this case, determine the cause of overheating and reset the thermostat manually by pressing the reset button located on the thermostat (or, in case of a malfunction, replace the thermostat).

  1. Before calling the master on the first suspicion of a malfunction, first check if the reason for the failure is the lack of light or water.
  2. If hot water does not flow from the taps, first check that the water and electrical connections meet the requirements set out in the relevant sections of this manual. Check up reliability of contacts between plugs and corresponding clips of the thermostat. If everything is in order, then the two-pole protective device (see previous section) may have tripped, or the circuit breaker, or burned out heating element.
  3. Before carrying out any maintenance, repair or cleaning operations, disconnect the heater from the mains electricity and water supply.
  4. If the indicator lamp does not turn on, and the device heats the water, check the bulb.
  5. If the safety valve is equipped with a handle for draining water from the water heater, it is recommended to flush the safety valve at least once a month to avoid clogging. To do this, lift the handle several times.
  6. It is not recommended to remove scale from the inner surface of the tank, because. the scale layer is an additional protection of the tank against corrosion.
  7. When connecting to a water supply system, direct contact between two different metals should be avoided (for example, when using copper pipes). For this purpose use connecting dielectric adapters which can be purchased from an authorized service center.
  8. Thermoelectric Models

    (for models with a capacity of 50 to 300 liters inclusive)

    An additional operation for this type of water heaters is to connect them to the central heating network.

    Connect the top outlet of the water heater to the upstream circuit of the central heating system and the bottom outlet to the downstream circuit using 2 valves.

    Warranty obligations specified by the manufacturer

Boiler Ariston: device and principle of operation

The manufacturer uses proprietary protection against corrosive changes. Everything budget models equipped with a mechanical regulator, and each expensive water heater is equipped with a digital control unit. An internal temperature controller works inside the water heater, which allows you to optimize heating. The device and principle of operation of such equipment are as follows:

  • an internal tank or boiler designed to receive cold water and framed by an external casing.
  • built-in heater designed to heat incoming water;
  • heat-insulating layer located between the body of the water heater and the boiler, which performs the function of a kind of thermos and allows long time keep the temperature indicators of heated water;
  • a shortened branch pipe equipped with a divider for water supply;
  • outlet pipe;
  • built-in magnesium anode to prevent strong sedimentation in the form of mineral salts on the walls of the inner surface of the tank.
  • thermostat designed to automatically interrupt the power circuit after heating the liquid to the specified temperature.
The device and principle of operation of Ariston boilers are relatively simple

Control of the operation of water heating equipment is carried out by means of a voltage indicator, and with the help of a built-in thermometer, you can monitor changes in temperature indicators.

Convenient connection of water-heating equipment from the company "Ariston" consists in the use of manufacturers of an autoclave special flange mechanism. The basic principle of operation of such a mechanism is based on pressing the gasket under the influence of water pressure. As a result, it is possible to completely eliminate not only the leakage of liquid, but also the formation of watery smudges. To avoid unnecessary heat losses, the fixing of electrical models of the water heater from the company "Ariston" is carried out in close proximity to the output point.

To install wall models, the equipment is fixed with anchors or bolts. Optimal standard diameter fastener should be 10 mm or more. Installation of 100-liter hot water tanks has some features. In this case, fastening must necessarily occur with fixation on the other side of the wall. It is for this reason that experts recommend installing water heaters before the start of the main finishing works.

It is important to remember that when connecting different types metals, it is mandatory to use dielectric adapters, by means of which differences in the degree of expansion of materials differing in parameters are compensated. It is necessary to connect the input using a standard valve, and a branch pipe is installed on the output. At the final stage, the installed water heater must be turned on and checked for correct connection, no leaks and operability.

During the operation of water heaters manufactured by Ariston, difficulties, as a rule, do not arise, but it is necessary to take into account some rules that affect the durability of the device and its performance. Periodic preventive measures are taken, including inspection internal parts equipment, descaling and replacement of worn-out heating elements. average duration the operation of all mechanisms of a particular model can be found in the manufacturer's instructions. It must be remembered that the timely replacement of the anode allows you to extend the life of the water heating mechanism. In accordance with the recommendations of professionals, it is not advisable to set the thermostat to the maximum heating level.

If you set the temperature limit by about 10 ° C below the maximum values, then you can significantly reduce the cost of electrical energy, as well as save the resources of equipment parts. It is important to remember that you can disassemble the device yourself only as a last resort.

Do-it-yourself Ariston boiler repair

Repair work related to the elimination of breakdowns in gas appliances require the involvement of qualified specialists, and the repair of an electric boiler can, as a rule, be done independently.

Major mechanical failures are most often manifested by tank leaks, from which water begins to ooze or drip during operation. The cause of this failure may be corrosion in the areas of the welds or a malfunction of the reverse protection system of the valve, which operates and performs an emergency reset. In this case, it is necessary to eliminate the excess level of water and air pressure by means of a reducer. Any depressurization of the storage tank will require the purchase of a new tank. If such a defect is insignificant, then it is enough to replace the sealing gasket.

A fairly inexpensive measure is the independent replacement of some electrical parts, including a heating element, a bimetallic thermostat, sensors or switches. In case of prolonged heating, noise or hiss, as well as in the event of an ABS system shutdown protection, a replacement of the heating element is required, the average service life of which, as a rule, does not exceed five years. Replacement is carried out after de-energizing the device, draining the water and removing the flange.

It is very important to systematically check the magnesium anode, which is consumable and is designed to effectively protect the inner surface of the tank and the heating element from corrosive changes. When thinning the anode to? from the initial volume is carried out mandatory replacement. The heating element is able to last much longer if the so-called “dry” heating element is installed in the structure.
