Nice soldering & to see you cleaning up the pipes, many plumbers wouldn’t bother 👍
Thanks... That's my fav part lol
Nice vid brother. Like the way you even address the social keyboard naysayers who like to nitpick on even the smallest insignificant issues like your using the wrong brush to flux etc...
This is real life everyday situations and you do it brilliantly. Your an engineer who to enjoys his chosen profession and has the grace and humility to pass on the greatest gift as a human being.... Knowledge...
Keep up the good work bro and thanks for sharing.
Absolutely AMAZING CONTENT!!! KEEP IT UP SAVING US ALL A LOT IN THESE TESTING TIMES AS WELL AS GAINING BASIC KNOWLEDGE
👍🏻👍🏻
Very helpful thanks for your help 🙏👍
Wonderful workmanship and skills
Thanks 😊
A Master Class tutorial.
👌🏼
Very nice video and clean job please do a video about installation of unvented cylinder
This was an exact replacement for the old one that lasted about 10 years. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx7yWIKcrbA9KMHkGSfcgxW2lsjHT6B8Sh The top of my mitigation tube by my roofline was just a 90 elbow which allowed too much debris to fall down into the fan, eventually ruining it. Without this issue, I bet it would have kept running another 10 years. When I replaced this fan, I added an extra elbow joint so the top tube now it does a 180, which should solve that problem. The radon guys around here wanted to charge me a $300 diagnostic fee, then parts/labor (probably close to $600 total). I installed this all by myself in about an hour for the cost of the fan; it would probably be even easier/faster with two people. FYI the manufacturer's warranty greatly differs depending on whether you install it yourself (1 yr warranty) or have a licensed installer do it (10 yrs).
Never used them
Thank you for your helpful installation video for this heater. I intend fitting the smaller 10 litre under sink model in my son's new flat which does not have gas and therefore all electric. I know that these Ariston water heaters have a sacraficial anode to help prevent the tank corroding. I believe the anode has to be checked annually and replaced if necessary. I have read that if not serviced regularly the tanks can corrode rendering the whole unit useless.
Tbh mate ive fitted loads of these and never once have i been called to service them - they last for a good couple years with no major issues
@@PlumbingDoctors do you know if these will give hot water to a few sinks? Or woild i need to oirchase a seperate one for every sink. We have just got a new shop and theres no central heatimg at all and we need hot water for 3 sink and a hair back wash
Very helpful, first time on you tube, 👍
Good Job thanks for that video.
Nicely done video👍
Fab video... literally the best guide for these heaters on the internet. Newbie question, how do you drain down? Thanks
Via the hot tap
Many thanks it’s always nice to learn something new got one fitted at my training centre
Good to hear
Well done 👍 nice job 👌
Thanks
Top video. 👍
Thanks 👌🏼
Really useful stuff I like the music!
;)
Good job
As well as good tune
Thanks
Thank you very much for a comprehensive video; it is such a pleasure that you take such pride in your work.
Thanks for the feedback and yes I always try to do a good job 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi, I have got the same one, it keeps overflowing all the time, what do you think the problem is? Thanks
So I bought one yesterday. After installation the water is only getting luke warm, any advice?
Good job bro
Thanks bro
Neat work, but your meant to use those plastic fittings as they’re dielectric fittings to stop electrolysis. 😉
Your right 👍🏼
@@PlumbingDoctors My understand was those dielectric fitting was to stop the tank from rusting. I guess if you used gas PTFE tape there is a chance that you wouldn't have the copper touching the iron (i.e. you would have made your own dielectric fitting). But there is a chance doing it your way would reduce the life of the unit.
Would you use the dielectric on furture installations??
Thanks for that also want to get into boiler repair any advice what steps to take.
go to manufacture courses
So if I fit a 10 litre one I don't need the other bits that you buy separately, great video
Check MI
Hi mate good video it looks like you're in a commercial premises don't you need thermostatic mixer valve under the tap also no legging thanks
That was there before but good spot
Thanks for your video ! Can I ask if I need to fit one of these 10L under kitchen sink- next to mecerator pump for waste, can discharge pipe be connected to the waste pump ? Thanks
Not sure best to check manufacturers instructions or give them a quick call.. let me know what you find out 👍🏻
@@PlumbingDoctors thanks for respond will do cheers 👍🏼
Thanks good vid. Voice too quiet music way too loud blew my ears off. cheers
Noted!
Nice install. What fitting did you use to connect the copper discharge pipe to the plastic waste pipe?
Compression 40mm equal tee with a reducer
Mash’Allah very informative video. What do you put the overflow from the tundish into? Is it like into the existing 32mm waste for the basin? Or do you run the copper all the way out of the building?
Depends on manufacturer some prefer copper but it done this in to high temp plastic
@@PlumbingDoctors sorry what I meant was where so you run the discharge into? It’s difficult for us to run out of the building as it’s for a bathroom in the middle of a residential flat so wondering if it’s possible to run the overflow into for example the water for the basin?
great video mate. I think pressure reducing valve should be after water meter .
correct me if I am wrong please. thanks for great videos .
Yep
it cant hurt to have an independent wrv to adjust the water pressure just for the heater
My pipe makes water pressure noise when water turns on what is the cause?
Great video bro. Keep up the good work.
Thanks bro
I've been doing some research. I don't think you handled the pressure relief plumbing correctly... love to hear your comments. I think the PRV should drain through a visible air gap for two reasons: 1) if there is a leak to the valve (apparently pretty common), you'd like a way to see this. 2) prevent bacteria from backing up into potable water supply.
Have you not seen the black tundish?
@@PlumbingDoctors I stand wonderfully corrected.... thank you sir, I had no idea what a "tundish" was... well done.
@@EngRMP 👍🏻👍🏻
The bends that you did at the pressure relief at the top and the pressure reducing valve would have been good to see
Check my other vid out its the same principle bro...Just start practicing and it will come with time
Copper prices are the highest they have ever been tho 💔 lol
I'll have a go keep plugging away great finish quality feel to the vids now with intros and outros
Yep slowly improving the video... use the scrap pieces to practice
Building a salon next to our house for my partner, and thinking of using the 30 litre one for the wash hair basin, fitted loads of these but never actually used them so don’t know how practical they are. Do you think the 30 litre one would be suitable or am I better off using an instant hot water one? Good install by the way
Yes 30l stored would be better for you
Before i start, no offence i watch many of your videos and i think you are great, but 1,did vessel not come with fixing kit?if it fails,is it not gonna be too heavy with it dangling in the air like that? 2,im sure you have to use the plastic fittings(dielectric junctions) otherwise u’ll invalidate the warranty, apparently its to prevent electrolytic corrosion. 3,in the diagram,it is a draw off point, not a drain off point, sure u know that, u probably just said it wrong. Again. Please dont take offence, please correct me if im wrong, you put up great vids i have learned lots from you 👍
Thanks
What are your thoughts about fitting these at lower levels? We have one fitted under a counter at our house which has worked fine for years but when I asked Ariston they said they couldn’t honour a warrantee if I fitted a new one under a kitchen counter. Do you know if there is a physical reason why it can’t be done if there is enough room. Any comments appreciated, thanks 👍🏼😊
you can buy other ones which are deigned to go under
Hi great video very helpful. Do you leave this turned on 24/7
Yes
Do the pipes have to be soldered or are compression fittings OK to use. Soldering is a much tidier job I know but I'm just curious
Nope you can solder, use compression, push fit, press fit...
@@PlumbingDoctors found this extremely helpful. Thank you 👍
Hi, I have one of these heaters that’s lost it’s power for some time, I’ve just had the power reinstated but the water is not getting hot? Is there a reset or something that must be done?
Yes there is a reset switch on the immersion check manufacturer service manual
My guy
👍🏽
Good installation - but the nylon unions you didn't use are not for tap connectors, they are DIELECTRIC unions and are to stop corrosion within the unit. Without having them installed the warranty is void. I'm not knocking the video in anyway, it's just I've installed 100's of these units and have dealt with ariston directly.👍
Thanks for the info! 👍🏻I didn't know that... I'll get that sorted.. can i get the nylon unions as spares ?
@@PlumbingDoctors I believe you can get them as spares Plumbing Doctor 👍 great channel you have 👍 like I said in my first post - it wasn't a dig at your installation but just some information for you. No one knows everything, we are all learning every day 👍 keep up the good work Sir
Thanks no worries i like honesty
@@PlumbingDoctors Plumbase can supply those dielectric unions.
👍🏻
Hi what would you charge to install this
Contact us for a quote in Coventry only
Can I use one of the water heaters for a shower
Yes but not ideal as the hot water will finish before u finish having a shower - Better to get a one which holds more water
Bro, i just had a 15l undersink heater installed. Does it require a expansion vessel? My plumber installed without one :(
I see that the expansion valve is for European market only,but I have to say I would fit one
It depends on incoming pressure and other things but i always fit one
Can you use plastic pipe? TIA
Yes I don't see why not
Salam brother why u didn't use a combination valve ..it would have been easier
Good question 👍🏽
Very good video except the music is very lowed and when your are talking is very quiet, it should be other way round other wise excellent, very helpful thanks.
Noted!
can this be used for a shower?
Nope not enough water
Does it work with speed fit?
You can use speedfit yes
Can it be used to feed a shower ?
nope not enough water
Hi im moving into a shop wich has no central heating. If i get one of these can it be used for kitchen and a hair backwash and 1 more sink? Or do i need a seperate one? Also how kong do these take to guve hot water x
Yes you can use for all but not together and it heats the water within 5- 10 mins
Did you really need to use the PTFE tape ?
Good question!... I don't think you need it due to the rubber washer but i always wrap some PTFE around the male thread 👍🏻
you do if the thread are longer on the iron than the connection on the water heater may not make a good seal with rubber washer especially when using fittings that are not supplied
Can i fit this in the bathroom?
Yes
Would one of these be able to cope with a shower or a bath? Or would you need to a system with a cylinder?
nope not enough water for a shower or bath - use a cylinder instead
Salam brother I am new in this game. I just got my G3. How much you would charge for this installation
Wslaam - 1million
I charge 800
@@PlumbingDoctors🤣
Show picture of how too wire you helm
you helm?
You’re meant to put the dielectric fittings on, to stop electrolysis, NOT so you can put flexi tap connections on them 😂😂😂. The 1/2” female copper to irons can still connect onto the dielectric fittings. 🤯
yes your right 👍✅
Didn’t look very big does it conform to BS ? Unlike that qooker tap for your kitchen you can get . Nice vid tho
👍🏼
These heaters are crap fitted less than 3 years leaks like a sieve
Nah
Why didn't you use the dielectric fittings supplied as per instructions ? Otherwise real neat job as per instructions.
Didn't know I had to use them until after the job was done
