The most important thing - do not include a device with visible signs of damage (for example, if after a fall from a wall, chips or cracks formed on it). Such a product should be examined by a specialist. According to the results of diagnostics, he can give permission to use the unit or prohibit its operation.

After installing the equipment you need to connect it. It will be better if the master does it. In this case, you will be absolutely sure that the device during operation will not let you down.

At the end of the installation, the owner can independently regulate the temperature of the water to the level that he considers necessary. For these purposes, you can use special buttons, if any, provided for the selected model. In some devices, the temperature is controlled by a valve or lever mounted on the mixer.

It will not be superfluous to use a shower head and a spout, which are sold with the device, because switching the plug on / off every day just to wash your hands is irrational.

Operation of water heaters is allowed only for adults capable persons. Children to this type of equipment without parental care should not be allowed.It is intended to water the device with water or to drop it on the floor. The outlet holes on the product do not need to be closed. Such actions will certainly lead to damage.

Tips

From the feedback on the operation of the instantaneous water heaters of the brand, it can be concluded that people have different requirements for appliances. For some, such a device was a real salvation, but it didn’t hit anyone at all. It is difficult to say for sure what impression an aggregate will create about itself if it is not personally experienced.

The main condition that allows the device to cope with all the tasks - the correct installation and operation. Therefore, before using the unit it is recommended to carefully study the instructions.

The most important requirements that must be met before the start of operation of flow heaters include:

  • installation of coarse filter;
  • strict compliance with the installation instructions contained in the instruction (some models are mounted horizontally, some - vertically);
  • grounding for reliable operation of electrical devices.

The horizontal position of the device is checked by the building level. Compliance with this rule ensures that no air plugs that adversely affect the operation of the heater will appear later.

The cost of brand units depends on:

  • materials used during manufacture;
  • additional functionality of the equipment;
  • control type (there are mechanical and electronic options).

Mechanical flow-through devices are considered more reliable, and their price is lower than the price of the second option. In turn, expensive electronic models have many additional features. Some units can control the inclusion and change of water temperature through a command sent via SMS. Features of each model of the water heater are described in the instructions.

Choosing between gas and electric options, buyers more often prefer the second. This factor is due to the greater safety of the latter, their ease of installation and the possibility of not coordinating installation work with special services. When a gas flow-through water heater is bought, it is necessary to attach to the installation a qualified specialist who has a permit, and the permission of the relevant authorities for the installation of gas equipment is necessary. In the future, buyers of such a device should regularly call the master, who must make an inspection and adjust the gas device.

Also, when choosing a model, you need to focus on what volume of water is supposed to be used. If daily needs need a large amount of water, then it is better to give preference to models of flow heaters with a large tank. Very convenient are devices with built-in special screens. Such displays reflect all information about the processes occurring with the water heater. In addition, such devices allow you to independently adjust all the important moments for work, which is very convenient.

A quality product (not a fake) must necessarily have a manufacturer's manual and a warranty card on which the seller must mark the date of purchase and stamp. Without these documents, you cannot buy goods, because there is a high probability that such products are counterfeit.
