Hotpoint-Ariston PRO ECO 50V DRY HE

Made by a well-known European brand-manufacturer of home appliances. Hope it lasts longer than the previous one. Has electronic control. When using the "Eco" mode, this saves energy and extends the life of the tubular electric heaters. These same heating elements in it are not installed simple, but the so-called. "dry". That is, the heating element does not fall into the water directly, but heats it through the wall of a special flask. It is said that such a scheme prolongs their service life. We'll see, time will tell. There is an anti-bacteria function. Now there is no musty smell from the water from the boiler even with long breaks in its use. The electronic thermometer more or less correctly shows the temperature in the tank.

Smart electronic control that allows you to accurately set the heating temperature or use the ECO mode. The latter is convenient when large quantities of hot water are not required. At the same time, the control system studies consumption for about a week, and then optimizes the temperature and time of heating the tank itself. This mode reduces heat loss through thermal insulation and saves energy. The maximum water temperature is 80 degrees, which is more than that of the vast majority of competitors. This not only gives more hot water after mixing, but also sterilizes the inside of the enamelled storage tank. Moreover, the control system does this disinfection on its own! If within a month the water did not heat up to 70 degrees, then on the thirtieth day, the automation itself warms up the thing in the volume of the tank to 80, for disinfection. Durable, economical and safe dry tubular electric heaters. The increased size of the protective magnesium anode.

In an old boiler, after periods of long downtime, the water deteriorated and acquired an unpleasant odor. In this model, this does not happen due to two things: firstly, the silver-containing coating on the inner surface of the storage tank interferes with this, and secondly, the electronic control allows you to set up automatic antimicrobial treatment of the tank with high temperature water. The meaning of the treatment is that every thirty days the boiler itself heats the water to a temperature of over 70 degrees and withstands for some time, that is, it actually pasteurizes the water. Another fundamental difference from the old models is the use of safe and durable dry heaters. Well, electronic control in itself is a big plus. The words "self-learning boiler software" sounded like a line from a science fiction novel twelve years ago, but today it's in a common household appliance. In addition to this cunning programme, electronics more accurately maintains the temperature of the water and allows you to additionally save 5-7% of electricity.
