installed this heater, after letting it run for 30 minutes I only got slightly warm water. Verified the input voltage and the wattage used. Waste of money

This water heater is being advertised as a 1500 Watt unit, drawing 12.5A at 120 Volts. It is a bogus rating! My measurements show that it draws only 9 Amps at 120 Volts – approx. 30% less then what is shown on the nameplate. While it does do a good job with only 1100 Watts, the manufacturer should be taken to task for false labeling. Additionally, in order to adjust the temperature, you have to remove 3 plastic covers and 3 screws to make a simple change to the thermostat setting. Good idea – bad implementation.

My stars rating really has nothing to do with this product… I just want to mention that an on-demand recirculating pump is possibly a better choice for “instant” hot water. They consume very little energy – much less than a small hot water tank.

My well produces 6 GPM. I have a tankless water heater and I waste water until the hot water arrives. I put the 4 gal. ariston in series with the water heater for the downstairs shower-it works great- instant hot water. I also put a 2 gal. ariston under the kitchen sink. They both save us water. The tankless water heater heats on demand so every time you turn the valve you fire up the water heater. In the kitchen I hooked the ariston to the cold water (it takes too long for hot water) Works fine for me since I do most of the dishes by hand. The fridge has cold water for drinking. These heaters are easy to install so it can be changed in about 5 min. Bill CA.

Please be aware that the manufacturer of Ariston brand does not have presense in US. I had purchased a washer/dryer from them in 2006 and it was sold to me with a full 2-year warranty (one of the reasons to choose it then). Now it is broken and they don’t want to honor the warranty telling that they have no legal obligations to do so.
