How can these Devices heat Water so quickly?

The Best Instant Water Heater solution for your bathroom

South African consumers were spoiled for decades with the lowest cost per kilowatt-hour for electricity, in the world. In contrast, many European countries have always had relatively high electricity tariffs. Even with an escalation of over 750% in cost since 1988, South Africans still pay less than consumers in larger European countries such as Germany, the UK, Italy and France, among others.

European consumers have been obliged to look at energy efficiency critically for far longer than their South African counterparts. The drive towards producing more efficient appliances and devices has also consequently come from European manufacturers of these devices. It’s not surprising that a global leader in heating and water heating, the Ariston Group was founded in Italy in 1930 and today offers a full range of products, systems and services to provide heat and hot water as efficiently as possible, with the least detrimental impact on the environment.

The financial pressure on electricity consumers to be more proactive in how they use electricity will keep ramping up. Producing hot water for personal hygiene is the largest single contributor to total electricity consumption in most households. Installing an Ariston Thermo South Africa

for your bathroom, offers an energy-efficient and eco-friendly way to replace outdated, inefficient systems and reduce your electricity bill.

Conventional Geyser or Instant Water Heater for Your Bathroom?


Conventional, centrally located, geysers are found in the vast majority of South African homes. By definition, a centrally located geyser will require pipe runs of varying lengths to conduct the heated water from the tank to the point of use. In many homes, these pipes are either not insulated at all or very poorly insulated. Heat is leached away from the water running from the tank to the point of use. To offset the losses and still achieve the desired temperature at the point of use, the water has to be kept at a higher temperature in the tank. Heat loss increases exponentially as the tank temperature increases, thereby using more electricity. The cold water that has to be run out of the pipe between the tank and the outlet ultimately gets wasted.



How does an Instant Water Heater for Your Bathroom Save Money?



An instant water heater for your bathroom from Ariston Thermo South Africa will eliminate wasted water and the cost of lost heat instantly by providing water at the point of use at the desired temperature. How does an instant water heater for your bathroom achieve these benefits? In a conventional system, turning on a hot water tap releases the cold water trapped in the pipe between the tank and the point of use which needs to be run to waste before the hot water arrives. Hot water flowing out of the top of the tank is replaced with cold water flowing into the bottom of the tank which then needs to be heated to the set temperature. An Ariston instant water heater for your bathroom avoids the need for bulky storage tanks and insulation. They heat only as much water as you need, to the required temperature and on-demand. An Ariston instant water heater for your bathroom will be a compact and stylish unit which owes its efficiency and economy to a simple but effective principle. The device is mounted on a wall at the point of use, wired into an electricity source and connected to a cold water supply. A series of powerful heating elements within the device heats the water instantly whenever an outlet is opened and water begins to flow. Closing the outlet automatically cuts power to the heating elements. Only the cost of heating the water used is incurred and only the water needed is consumed. This means you never pay to heat the water you don't use and you don’t run cold water to waste.
