How to use gas Ariston?

Not only its lifespan, but also the safety of all household members depends on the correct use of household appliances. Especially when it comes to such units as gas columns. Let's try to understand why the Ariston brand models are among the most reliable and what are the nuances of their use.

    Special features

    Ariston geysers have a compact size and traditional design. Due to this, such equipment will easily fit into a room of any size and any interior. In addition, the technique has design features that distinguish it from analogs of other brands. At the heart of the design of the geyser laid European technology. Compliance with similar design methods allows all devices to have a high level of safety.

    To ensure that the operation of water-heating equipment is safe, all models are equipped with several types of security systems. Such systems significantly reduce the likelihood of emergency situations.

    Standard protection systems built into all Ariston models include:

    • fuel control system;
    • overheating protection system;
    • temperature monitoring system;
    • traction device system.

    Another significant feature of the water heater is insulation. During operation, the device does not produce excessive noise. During the ignition technique produces a slight vibrating sounds. In addition to these positive features, there is one that makes the technique unique. The device allows the owner to choose the optimal mode of operation, corresponding to a specific operating condition. The newly released equipment is configured in the standard mode of operation. Therefore, each user must configure the column for the selected mode, in accordance with the rules of the instruction manual.

    Device and principle of operation

    Flowing gas water heaters are a fairly common household item in our country. The reason for their high popularity lies in the affordable cost of gas. If there is a main gas in the house, water heaters are the best solution for water heating. There are two types of gas heaters: atmospheric and turbocharged. Atmospheric possess an open combustion chamber. Turbocharged, on the contrary, are equipped with a closed combustion chamber. The company Ariston produces turbocharged geysers. For most models, the internal and external devices are the same, it differs only in small changes in design and construction.

    Water heating equipment consists of the following elements:

    • water block, where cold water flows;
    • a gas heater that helps ignite the gas mixture in the chamber and heats the heat exchanger;
    • combustion chamber in which combustion takes place;
    • heat exchanger - a tank in which water is heated;
    • chimney, producing products of combustion;
    • radiator cooling fan;
    • sensors that monitor the flow of fuel, water temperature, cravings, and more;
    • control panel, through which the control of the work of technology.

    In addition to the basic equipment, the equipment contains gas supply channels and pipes through which the fluid circulates. As for the external device, there is a viewing window on the front of the column, which is necessary for controlling the operation of the unit, gas and water flow controls, and a liquid crystal display showing the water temperature.

    The principle of operation lies in the fact that inside the gas there is a combustion of gas, thanks to which the running water passing through the heat exchangers is heated and through the faucet is discharged already in a warm state.

    The lineup

    Brand Ariston produces many models of water heaters. Positive customer reviews clearly prove that this brand is number one on the market for the production of gas appliances. Model Ariston Fast Evo - the most popular of the entire line of heaters. The model is available in two types, differing in performance (11 and 14 liters per minute). This is a turbocharged automatic electric ignition machine. To use the device will need only two batteries. In addition, a flame modulation system is built into the model.Such a system allows you to maintain temperature constancy.

    The main advantages of Ariston Fast Evo include:

    • ability to work at two points of water intake;
    • ignition occurs at minimum pressure;
    • optimal outlet temperature.

    Another popular model is part of the Marco Polo series - Gi7S with a closed combustion chamber. The device is equipped with a flow heater and does not have a chimney. An important feature of the device is that the pipe is brought to the street, therefore, the products of combustion do not remain in the room, but go outside. Gi7S is the most powerful unit, so it is very energy intensive. Of the more budget models, Ariston CA 11P is in special demand. The unit is made in a classic design and easy to manage. It steadily keeps the set parameters and does not knock down the settings.

    In addition, the water heater heats up gradually, without making any noise.

    How to install and configure?

    Purchasing a new water heater, owners face the challenge of installing it. Incorrectly configured device leads to inaccurate operation of the column and the disappointment of its owners.Proper installation takes place in two stages: preparatory work and adjustment of water temperature.

    Installation work occurs as follows.

    • The first step is to settle the water. If you do not do this at the initial stage, then the entire installation will be inaccurate. It is necessary to create a minimum flow of water. The optimal value will be 6, 10 or 12 liters.
    • Setting the hot water regulator is also included in the preparatory stage. Hot mixer must be opened to full capacity. It is important to remember that by connecting the device to several points at once, only one valve is allowed to unwind. Next, set the required value using the water switch and turn off the tap.
    • At the end of the preparatory phase regulated gas supply. To do this, you need to know exactly the minimum value of the model prescribed in the device's data sheet. To regulate the gas supply, the toggle switch is turned to the minimum and the gas valve opens. In all models of Ariston, it is allowed to open the tap, having previously connected the equipment to the network before. At the end of the hot valve opens, the water heater starts to work.Professionals recommend before starting the adjustment to wait for the pressure in the line to drop and bring the gas regulator to the minimum level until you reach the optimum temperature.
    • The final step will be the need to adjust the hot water. First, the mixer is opened and the temperature of the water flow is estimated. Its temperature should be higher than the output at 25 degrees. As the gas appliances heats up the water gradually, you will have to wait. Experienced adjusters advise you not to exceed 55 degrees, as scale build-up will begin, and this can negatively affect the operation of the device.

    Subtleties of operation

    Each Ariston model has a complete instruction manual. The manual explains in detail and clearly the rules for using the unit, safety rules for operation and much more. If you precisely follow the instructions, the device will have a longer service life and less chance of life-threatening situations and breakdowns. In addition to the main points on how to turn on and turn on the column, how to regulate the temperature, where to put the battery and another, The instruction gives advice and rules for safe use of the device.

    • The column is allowed to mount on the wall only in a vertical position. It is necessary to calculate in advance whether the wall can withstand such loads. In addition, the wall should not be subject to vibration.
    • Do not install the speaker near heat sources.
    • If you plan to hide the column in the cabinet, it is important to remember about the high temperature of the equipment. The material for the cabinet should be heat resistant. In addition, do not stitch the cabinet from above to ensure optimum air flow.
    • It is not allowed to leave foreign objects on the column.
    • Any work (cleaning or repair) can be carried out only after disconnecting the device from all power sources: gas, water, electricity.
    • Finding odors emanating from the water heater, you need to instantly disconnect it from the mains.
    • The room in which the operation of equipment is planned must comply with the prescribed norms and standards.
    • Do not use the column when a chimney is faulty or clogged.
    • It is prohibited to operate the equipment if the combustion products controller is faulty.

    Malfunctions and methods of their elimination

    Any technique has the ability to break with time. Despite the high-quality Ariston gas water heater assembly, there are chances of several types of faults. Errors in the operation of equipment lead to problems in the work of the whole column. Fortunately, the owner is able to eliminate some of the resulting breakdowns and faults himself. In case of minor breakdowns, there is no need to hurry to take the device to a service center. First, you need to make sure that the water heater communications are properly connected, and there is enough pressure in the system.

    If, however, the device is connected correctly, the problem lies in the internal structure.

    There are several types of technical breakdowns.

    • The device does not ignite and does not light up. The reason for this may be the wear of parts, for example, a membrane. Or failed to work the servomotor. Also important causes of this problem are the lack of water pressure and low battery electric ignition. To solve these problems, it is necessary to replace outdated parts, then the geyser will start working stably again.
    • The device does not ignite. If the device fails to ignite, the burner chimney is clogged.In this case, it is necessary to check the draft and clean the chimney. For it you will need specialized powders from scale or ordinary table vinegar.
    • The device does not turn on. If the burner cannot be turned on, if it goes dead and goes out after a certain period of time, these symptoms indicate that a large amount of scale has accumulated in the device. After carrying out the cleaning works, using special means, the water heater will begin to work properly again.
    • The technique does not heat the water. The main cause of the problem lies in the problem with the radiator. Most likely, it flows, so the owner does not receive hot water at the outlet. Also a problem may be caused by a faulty membrane. In both cases, parts will need to be replaced. However, the radiator is a rather expensive item. Finding a leak, it can be soldered. This will require a soldering iron with a capacity of 0.1 kW.

    The burner indicator can tell the owner about the occurrence of a breakdown:

    • the red light is constantly on - the problem is in batteries;
    • the bulb flashes and goes out - this indicates the need to replace the microswitch;
    • the light blinks twice and goes out - the temperature sensor needs to be replaced;
    • triple blink - indicates ignition electrode and flame control sensor;
    • four flashes in a row - a fault in the gas valve;
    • five flashes indicates overheating of the equipment and flue clogging.
