Gorenje GBF 100 E/V9

First of all, it must be said that this is a convenient and reliable water heater, designed for long, many years of work. The manufacturer gives a two-year warranty for any breakdowns and separately guarantees 10 years of trouble-free operation of the tank. This is one of the longest guarantees and the company gives it for good reason. To begin with, with a volume of 50 liters, this boiler weighs 24 kg. The reason is simple - the internal tank, designed for high network pressure (up to 9 atm), is made of really thick sheet metal. For comparison, I will say that cheap water heaters of the same volume usually weigh no more than 18 kg. But not only the thickness protects it from leaks. Protective enamel with a primer and an enlarged magnesium anode reliably protect the metal from corrosion. Two so-called. "dry" heating elements have a relatively low power of 1400 W (2 x 700 W) and are controlled by a mechanical regulator. Such a scheme provides a reduction in scale formation and a quick replacement of the heating element in the event of its failure. In addition, the heating elements are connected in parallel, so that the failure of one of them will not affect the performance of the second and the water heater will continue to work.
