Advice On Ariston Storage Heater

[hippo 0]

Can anyone here advice how long does it take after switching on the Ariston storage heater (say 30L) before is it hot enough to bath? And how long does it stay hot in e tank?

I understand that for Joven storage heater, just have to switch on for abt 10-15min, it is gd enough for a 35L tank for u to bath. Also, even if u on it in e morning, it will still stay hot in the tank until u come back in e evening..

I hv to consider ARISTON bcos of e space constraint (ariston is more compact), and would appreciate any of those Ariston users to comment as there another thread commenting that it takes ages to heat up..

thks in advance

It is not advisable to use 1 heater for 2 bathrooms.

No one uses Rheem?

Personal experience tells me that joven not very good.

i use ariston 15L for me and my hubby. it serve two bathrooms (shower mixer and basin tap mixer). I on about 10mins and off it after i bath, which means it would have ON for at least 30mins. It last about 4hours.

It depend how much hot water you use when u bath. Me and my hubby not into hot bath...so it is adequate for two of us to bath in both toilets at the same time.

Ariston provides 4 years leak proof warranty while Joven & Alpha provides 10 years leak proof warranty. A couple of posts say Ariston storage water heaters rust, provided they used Ariston storage water heaters - You know how anonymity works in RenoTalk....

Lucky Khoon quote me Joven 25L for $230, 15L for $200.

i have posted my findings on ariston and joven somewhere in this forum.

i have used both brands and i'm able to give unbiaised comments here.

ariston takes longer to heat up and the heat doesnt retained long in the tank.

joven is good. it works almost like instant heater.

imagine i come home after work, i switched the heater switch on, took off my clothes, take towel and walk into the bathroom. i just open up the water tap, and viola, i got hot water liao. and the water is REALLY hot.......

this is joven tank.

As for Ariston, its damm slow.......

i switched on the heater switch, i brushed my teeth (about 10mins), and step into the shower area, and i still dun get hot water..... i got to suffer for another 10-15mins mins to get the hot water.

and the heat in the ariston tank doesnt stay long.... maximum i can tell you is only 4 hours only.

As for Joven, i can guarantee that the heat stays for 12 hours.

i'm used both brands and i know what i am talking about. both tanks that i used are the same capacity - 25L.

the difference is the insulation materials and the tank material used in ariston and joven.

joven is using stainless steel tank.

ariston is not using stainless steel. they are using some kind of old technology metal that was used on old kettles last time.

ariston is made in Vietnam

hmm.... it does take 15min or more to heat up though. but since it's a popular brand - we bought it. so far no problems - no leaking .

To add on to donut88 information, I have called up the company who brings in Ariston.

Their products are made in various countries such as Vietnam, India, Indonesia, etc.

The model for 25L is stainless steel and made in India while their 30L newer model is using titanium tank.
