Boiler Ariston instruction manual. General information on Ariston water heaters

18.10.2019

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.

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.
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 you open a faucet hot water to the water heater through the supply pipe cold water cold water begins to flow. Cold water coming from below displaces previously heated water through the hot water pipe coming from the top of the unit. Thus, hot water, starting from the top of the tank, enters the consumer, and the bottom of 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:

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.
Thermal insulation - made of polyurethane foam, ensures minimal heat loss even when the water heater is turned off.
Temperature regulator - sets the desired water temperature and is located either outside or under the cover, depending on the model.
Thermostat - monitors the set temperature and controls the supply voltage to the heating element (heater).
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.)
Magnesium anode - additional protection of the inner tank against corrosion.

All water heaters have certificates of conformity of the State Standard of Russia (AYA46).

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:

The electrical connection must be carried out in accordance with the rules in section "2.3. Electrical connection".
The safety valve included in the scope of supply must not be plugged or replaced.
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.

Connecting the inlet pipe of the water heater to the water supply system is carried out through safety valve included in the package.

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).

To avoid breakage, do not use too much force when screwing in the safety valve.

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

Current repair and Maintenance recommended to be carried out by qualified personnel.

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 access the thermostat, unscrew and remove plastic cover 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 the rubber gasket with a new one.

Regular maintenance

Scale can be carefully scraped off 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 aggressive water properties magnesium anode worn 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).

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.
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.
Before carrying out any maintenance, repair or cleaning operations, disconnect the heater from the mains electricity and water supply.
If the indicator lamp does not turn on, and the device heats the water, check the bulb.
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.
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.
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.

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

Guarantee period

The warranty period for the inner steel tank is at least 3 years, depends on the model and is indicated in the warranty card.

Today, Ariston water heaters are one of the most popular on the market. In particular, the 50 liter models are in particularly high demand. Such water heaters have small dimensions, so they can easily fit in any room. Ariston water heaters are easy to operate, maintain and have a long service life.

Peculiarities

The Ariston heater is capable of heating water from +30 to +85 degrees. An interesting feature of this product is that such a water heater has an extremely pleasant and user-friendly design, able to fit into any room, and constantly provides a home hot water. Many models also have an energy saving function - the water automatically heats up to a temperature of +50 degrees. Of course, you can increase this figure if you wish. Also, Ariston 50 liter boilers can automatically turn off when there is a power surge, which helps prevent damage to the unit. AT modern models it is worth noting the functions of accelerated heating and water filtration.

Kinds

Among the main models of Ariston water heaters, there are several types.

Water heaters accumulative type. Two tubes and power supply are connected to the storage heaters. The first tube is designed to supply cold water to the boiler. After heating it, it exits through the second tube. Typically, 50 liter models are mounted - they are attached to the wall. Water in these types of boilers is heated by electricity. Thanks to the thermostat, the storage electric boiler automatically turns off after the liquid is heated to desired temperature. Users noted Ariston VLS storage boilers, which, among other things, are flat. They are extremely compact, so they do not take up much space.

Boilers of gas type. Gas models differ in that they heat water not at the expense of electricity, but with the help of gas. Otherwise, the device and the principle of operation are similar to storage-type water heaters. It is worth noting that gas boiler usually made of steel and additionally covered with a layer of titanium enamel, which allows both to increase the reliability of the water heater and reduce heat loss.

Water heaters with indirect heating. They carry out heating of water by means of the coil installed inside. It is noted that these models heat water faster than all previous ones. But usually they are quite large and have big weight, but able to heat a large number of water (150-500 liters). Such volumetric models are not recommended to be fixed to the wall, but placed on the floor. The floor water heater has a very durable coating that increases its service life.

Among other types of Ariston boilers, it is worth noting flat devices. These compact models have minimal dimensions, they can be placed anywhere. Despite their small size, these boilers are quite powerful. This option organically fits into the room of any size and does not take up much space. And also the manufacturer offers customers rather unusual boilers that can be positioned horizontally. Horizontal models can be placed in a specially designated niche, thereby completely hiding it, which allows for even greater savings in usable space.

Popular Models

It is worth highlighting some of the most common models of Ariston boilers.

Ariston Velis Inox. This model has horizontal and vertical variations. Stylish design and a flat body make the boiler a rather attractive technical device that does not take up extra space.

Ariston ABS VLS. This option is almost completely automatic. Installed in the device various systems, which monitor the temperature and protect the heating elements from overheating.

Ariston ABS PRO. This type of water heater is cylindrical in shape, which allows you to place it in the corner of the room. This version of the boiler is one of the most budgetary.

How to connect?

Usually, the installation and connection of Ariston 50 liter boilers does not cause great difficulties. Each device is accompanied by an instruction manual. Therefore, installing a boiler is a simple matter and can be done with your own hands.

Installation of a mounted boiler is carried out as follows:

measurements must be taken on the wall, including determining the height of the unit;
then a pair of holes should be made with a puncher, which should be approximately 10 cm in depth;
for fastening the boiler, strong anchors are used that can withstand the heavy weight of the structure;
then the boiler is simply hung on the anchor with a special mounting plate, which is located behind the body.

One of the main points when installing a boiler is to correctly connect and carry out the first start of the device, using rules such as:

first you need to open the valve to supply cold water to the boiler;
then open the mixer, from which hot water should flow; most likely, at the first start it will produce loud and intermittent sounds, but do not be afraid - this is normal for the first inclusion;
then you need to wait a bit until the boiler carries out a set of cold water to heat it;
after filling the boiler and heating the liquid, the water from the tap must flow stably; it is advisable not to immediately set a large temperature regime;
After the first start, the water temperature can be easily adjusted using simple commands on the water heater.

Faults

Even the most reliable equipment is not immune from accidental breakdowns. No matter how high the characteristics of the device, it can still fail. Various factors can influence this. Water heaters are usually characterized by breakdowns of water heating elements and thermostats. In order to avoid damage to the heating elements, it is recommended to carry out preventive maintenance and cleaning of the heating elements at least once a year. A long period of water heating, extraneous sounds during boiler operation, or more frequent spontaneous shutdowns can serve as an indicator of a malfunction. Boiler repair can be done independently; To do this, you need to disassemble the unit and determine the location of the breakdown.

In order to eliminate the malfunction with your own hands, you must follow certain steps.

To begin with, it is worth disconnecting the device from the mains, and then completely drain the water from it. To do this, you can use a hose that connects to a special hole for discharging water.
Shut off the flow of fluid into the boiler. After draining the water, you can begin to inspect the parts of the water heater.
Often breakdowns occur precisely in electric heaters, so you should immediately inspect the heating element (heater).
With prolonged use, any heating element is covered with scale. Therefore, it should be carefully removed, while you can use special tools.
If replacement of any components is necessary, then it is necessary to purchase only original parts by contacting the official manufacturer.

In some cases, a water heater tank may leak. In this case, you need to carefully examine the body of the product. It is possible that the problem lies in a leaky gasket, which should simply be replaced with a new one. But if the heater tank is leaking due to a crack or chip, then it is unlikely that it will be possible to eliminate this malfunction by independent forces. You can try to use the soldering method, but this is unlikely to help on long time. If the housing is damaged, corrosion in the heater begins to occur faster, and heat loss begins to increase.

Therefore, the installation of the heater should be carried out very carefully so as not to accidentally damage the housing. If such a problem still occurs, then best solution will contact the service center.

After analyzing customer reviews on the use of Ariston boilers, it should be noted that most of the owners are satisfied with the purchase, because the operation of such a water heater does not cause serious complaints. Buyers appreciated the stylish appearance, compactness and simplicity in management of a water heater. They were also separately noted low level heat loss, low electricity consumption during boiler operation. In general, the owners of Ariston boilers noted good value for money, as well as professional service in specialized services.

As negative points periodic breakdowns of the water heating element were noted. Usually manufacturer Ariston gives a guarantee for the heating element up to one year. Some owners of boilers have had breakdowns before. But the performance of this element depends on many factors - frequency of use, water hardness and others. And also among the negative aspects, it is worth noting the lack of elements for mounting some wall-mounted boilers in the kit. These brackets must be purchased separately.

Instructions for the water heater Ariston 80 liters and a number of other issues regarding this equipment will be discussed in our material. We will talk about the main advantages of Ariston equipment, the device, the rules for connecting and operating the units.

Ariston products are in rather impressive demand in the domestic market. Many people choose this particular manufacturer when buying a water heater. What is the reason for this? The advantages that a boiler of 30, 50, 80 or even 100 liters carries.

When choosing a boiler for 30, 50, 80 or 100 liters, you should rely on the number of users and the number of consumer points. If this is a small family of 2 people, 30 or 50 liters is enough. But for families of 3 people or more, it is better to take a boiler for 80 or 100 liters.

Now about the benefits of Ariston.

Attractive, modern Ariston design. Many are guided not only by the efficiency of the boiler, but also by appearance, since the unit will be located in a conspicuous place. In this regard, Ariston appliances are able to decorate the interior, and not only provide hot water.
Long service life. Ariston boilers with a volume of 30, 50, 80 and 100 liters have a factory warranty for several years, but in reality they can serve for more than ten years. This was achieved through the use of special materials that cover the inner walls of the boilers. They protect against scale, rust, plaque.
Modern dividers are used. Due to them, cold water does not mix with heated water. Therefore, when heating even a small amount of water in a boiler of 30, 50, 80 or 100 liters, you can use hot water, and not wait for the entire volume of the water heater to heat up.
Protective mechanisms of the water heater. They work very efficiently, responding to potentially dangerous power surges. This largely ensures such a long service life of Ariston equipment, which we talked about earlier.
Antibacterial protection. With its help, you can safely wash under water from a boiler that has been operating in your house for more than a year, without fear of water pollution.
Protection of the water heater from an empty tank. Everyone knows that it is impossible to turn on the boiler when the tank is empty. Otherwise it burns out. But there have been many precedents. Unlike them, Ariston water heaters are equipped with special mechanism, which does not allow the device to be put into operation if the tank is empty.

Device

Now let's see what components a modern Ariston water heater consists of. In fact, regardless of the tank of 30, 50, 80 or 100 liters, the design remains identical. Only differences are in the size of the elements, their characteristics, capabilities.

Water heater body. This is the outer shell that hides all the internal components. The designers did a great job making Ariston boilers not only efficient, but also very beautiful;
Internal capacity. Or a tank. This is the same tank where cold water is poured from the water supply system;
TEN. A heating element that provides heating of the incoming cold water to the boiler. In models with a volume of 30 and 50 liters, one heating element is used, and water heaters of 80 and 100 liters can be equipped with two heating elements at once. This contributes to faster heating of a large volume of water;
Thermal insulation layer. An effective heat-insulating layer on Ariston boilers contributes to the long-term preservation of the temperature of the heated liquid;
Pipe and splitter. These devices are responsible for the separation of heated and cold water, as well as the supply of hot liquid to taps, shower heads and other consumers;
magnesium anode. This is an indispensable element of any boiler. Its task is to prevent salt deposits on internal surfaces. Considering the quality of the water entering the boiler from the centralized water supply, the developers used an improved efficiency anode to cope with less than perfect water. It is not uncommon for the repair of Ariston water heaters to involve the replacement of the anode or heating element;
Temperature controller. It is necessary in order to turn off the operation of the heating element when the water temperature reaches the user-set mark;
Thermal relay. An important unit that contributes automatic start Heating element in a situation where the temperature drops below a predetermined mark;
indicator lamp. This voltage indicator allows you to monitor the operation of the boiler;
Thermometer. All Ariston water heaters are equipped with built-in thermometers. With their help, the user can monitor the change in the temperature of the heated water.

Useful Features

Having chosen a boiler from Ariston for 100, 80, 50 or 30 liters, it will be useful to know about the capabilities of this equipment.

Turning on and off. A working boiler is determined by luminous indicators;
Power adjustment. The user himself sets the parameters on which the equipment works;
antibacterial mode. To turn it on or off, hold the "Power" button for 5 seconds;
Temperature change. You can change from 30 to 75 degrees by pressing the + or - buttons.

Installation instructions

Let's be honest, the installation of boilers for 30, 50, 80 and 100 liters is best left to a specialist. But if you decide to do everything yourself, then we recommend that you follow certain rules.

Check the condition of the safety valve. If it has visually noticeable defects, be sure to replace it with a new one.
When installing the screws used to install the boiler, be sure to use plastic dowels.
Make sure that the grounding elements are installed correctly.
Use only a separate power line to connect the boiler. No extensions. Choose waterproof outlets.
To connect Ariston water heaters, use only the plug that came with the kit.

Operating rules

In order for your Ariston boiler to work for more than one year, and always efficiently heat all 30, 50, 80 or even 100 liters of water, follow certain recommendations for operating the equipment.

Check the presence of liquid in the container before each shutdown and restart of the equipment. Only when the tank is full can power be applied. Despite the presence of a protective system in Ariston, ignore this advice do not recommend.
If the boiler cord is damaged, the replacement is carried out exclusively with a component of the same manufacturer and with the same characteristics. It is better to buy accessories for Ariston boilers in branded or specialized outlets.
When planning a long shutdown of the water heater, be sure to drain the old water according to the instructions for your boiler model, then turn off the water supply tap from the water supply system, and then turn off the power.
Periodically, your Ariston will need a system cleanup. Here we recommend using a warranty and post-warranty agreement so that this procedure is performed by specialists. You can learn all the subtleties, in order to then do the work with your own hands.

Ariston boilers are time-tested water heaters that rightly occupy their high positions in the market.

The history of the Italian company Ariston dates back to 1930. Then the product range was limited only to scales, but today it includes multifunctional household and professional appliances. Among the favorites is a reliable and durable Ariston water heater. It differs from competitive technology in a key ratio of qualities for consumers - price-quality.

Long history

In 1930, thanks to the quick-witted Aristide Merloni, a new brand appeared on the household appliance market - Ariston. The family business specialized in the production of scales. A little later, the assortment was replenished with electric heaters, cylinders for liquefied gas. Flowing and storage water heaters in the catalog on the official website appeared relatively recently. Further, the business was transferred to the sons of the founder - Vittorio, Antonio and Francesco. As a result of the division of the company, there were three main divisions:

Ardo;
Merloni Elettrodomestici;
termosanitary.
