Energy-efficient and capacious electric storage water heater with an internal tank capacity of 100 L, electronic control, "dry" heater and ECO function, which saves up to 10% of electricity. It is positioned as a product of the upper part of the middle price category of 2015. It is one of the older models of the Hotpoint-Ariston PRO ECO line, which is capable of providing hot water supply to an apartment or a small cottage.
The power of such a device is enough to serve the household needs of a family consisting of 3-4 people. Proprietary Nanomix technology (improved flow divider) optimizes the mixing of water with different temperatures, increasing the output of hot water. The internal tank of the Hotpoint-Ariston PRO ECO 100V DRY HE water heater is coated with a special heat-resistant AG+ enamel, the surface layer of which contains a small amount of silver.
Due to antibacterial properties, such enamel is not subject to biological fouling, which helps to keep the internal volume of the device clean. Additional electrochemical protection against corrosion is provided by a large magnesium anode. To prevent the growth of microorganisms in the water, the control system once a month warms up the entire volume of the tank to a temperature of 70 °C. Water heating is carried out by one "dry" heating element with a power of 1800 W and its performance is sufficient to heat the entire tank from 10 to 55 °C in 3 hours.

Summer preventive repairs of communal heating networks, lasting for a month, are uncomfortable due to the shutdown of hot water. Therefore, I decided to buy and install an additional electric water heater in the bathroom. At first, they were interested in flow models, but they consume such a current that I doubted whether an old electric meter could withstand it. In the end, I decided not to risk it and buy a storage boiler. For my family of three, this 100-litre model was perfect. 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. Big, takes up a lot of space. The price is comparable to boilers with a stainless steel tank. |
My old Ariston storage electric water heater lasted for twelve years. It probably could have lasted even longer, but I admittedly ignored the regular replacement of the magnesium anode, and what happened happened — it rusted through. Later, I googled and realized that for "older" enameled water heaters, timely replacement of the magnesium anode is extremely important. After 5-6 years of operation, even the best enamel of the inner tank starts to deteriorate due to constant temperature fluctuations, making the anode a crucial part of protection. Naturally, I chose my new water heater from models of the same manufacturer. In the old boiler, after long periods of disuse, the water would spoil and develop an unpleasant smell. This doesn't happen in this model for two reasons: first, the silver-containing coating inside the storage tank prevents this, and second, the electronic controls allow you to set up automatic antimicrobial treatment of the tank with high-temperature water. The point of this treatment is that every thirty days, the boiler heats the water to a temperature of over 70 degrees and maintains it for some time, effectively pasteurizing the water. Another fundamental difference from the old models is the use of safe and long-lasting dry heating elements. Plus, electronic control is a significant advantage on its own. The words "self-learning software of the boiler" sounded like a line from a science fiction novel twelve years ago, but today it's a feature of a regular household appliance. Besides this clever program, the electronics more accurately maintain the water temperature and allow an additional saving of 5-7% in electricity. Only 12 months warranty on the electric part of the water heater. IMHO, that's a bit too short. You have to pay for quality, and the price made me a bit uneasy. For that amount of money, you could buy two simple and inexpensive Chinese water heaters. |
For selecting a boiler model, I consulted a familiar household heating equipment seller. He advised me to purchase something from Ariston's assortment with "dry" electric heaters. As a result, I chose the PRO ECO 80V DRY HE model based on the combination of features, and they are impressive. A modern storage water heater is not just an enameled tank with heating elements and a thermostat, but an energy-efficient device controlled by modern electronics with a range of contemporary and even advanced technologies. Antibacterial enamel, which protects the surface of the steel tank from corrosion, contains silver ions and gives an antibacterial effect. In addition to this, the electronic control system heats the water to the maximum temperature once every three weeks so that the water in the boiler does not stagnate and does not acquire an unpleasant odor even after a long period of inactivity. Dry heating elements. Such a heater does not accumulate scale and, due to this, its service life is many times longer than that of classic heating elements. But even if they fail, the water heater does not need to be disassembled to replace them. Electronic control, high-precision electronic thermometer with two sensors. A clever system of cold water distribution along the bottom of the tank, which minimizes mixing and noticeably increases the output of hot water. Good thermal insulation with a thick layer of foamed polyurethane. After a good warm-up, warm water from the boiler can be used for at least another day. Made in Italy. Not the fastest water heating. For really hot water, you have to wait more than two hours. You can adjust the temperature of the water heating only in increments of ten degrees. I think it's unjustified. |

The Hotpoint-Ariston brand is both American and European at the same time, since in 2014 the Italian company Indesit, which produces household appliances under the Ariston brand, became part of the American Whirlpool Corporation. One of the brand's most popular storage heaters is the PRO ECO 100V DRY HE model, which costs about $180.
familiar and understandable
The white boiler is made in a classic cylindrical shape and small for a 100-liter tank in size — 91.3x45x45 cm. The interior will not spoil, but it will not decorate. The electronic controls are concentrated in the lower front, intuitive and simple.
The tank has double protection against corrosion — an enamel coating with silver ions (Ag) inside and a magnesium anode. The manufacturer guarantees that the tank will last at least 5 years, in fact, from 7 to 10, depending on the hardness and degree of water pollution.
Smart and prudent
Heating is carried out by two "dry" heating elements with a total power of 1800 watts. To a warm state (45 °C), the water heats up in 3 hours. But if you want it hotter, you can heat up to a maximum of 80 °C.
To select the temperature in the range of 40 – 80 °C, two "+/—" buttons are provided. A separate "Eco" button(not to be confused with the economy mode) automatically turns on the protection against bacteria that accumulate in stagnant water. This function is reasonable to use if the water in the tank does not circulate for more than two days. If you leave it on for 2 weeks, the boiler will automatically switch to medium consumption mode, that is, it will select the optimal temperature and speed of water heating based on your needs.
Summing up, we can say that the Hotpoint-Ariston PRO ECO 100V DRY HE boiler has a good balance of performance, comfort of use and price, which makes it attractive to numerous consumers.
