Review on 💧 Efficient and Compact Thermex IRP 200 V (Combi) Water Heater - White by Aneta Tkaczyk ᠌

Different pros: Indirect heating and heating elements provide our needs for hot water completely both in summer and in winter. Cons below: Bought in 2022. Installed in January 2022. In operation since September 2022. After less than six months of operation, it leaked. An autopsy showed that the lower flange (located at the bottom of the water heater) was rusted through. Unlike the tank and heat exchanger made of stainless steel, it is made of simple steel. What is this? A miscalculation of designers or a wish of marketers? Yes, it turns out cheaper, but it adds a headache to the consumer. In addition, the rubber seal on this flange could be solid. And it is not clear for what purpose the window left in it in the center provides free access of water to the said flange, which does not add durability to it. The body of the control unit is made fragile and cracks over time. Weak contact in the detachable connections of the conductors due to which their increased heating occurs. The inconvenient location of the heater switches at the very bottom of the control unit, and the tank is for floor installation! i. E., in order to make sure whether they are turned on or not, you need to kneel. Let's continue . minuses are added . After a year of work at the end of July 2022, two of the three heating elements died. Even earlier, during a leak, I took care of finding spare parts for this unit. It turned out that of the available proposals, only the proposal of the anode is present. All the rest are basically non-existent. Those. look for a substitute yourself . in general, when purchasing this boiler, keep in mind that you will be your own director, plumber, supplier, etc. I change the rating. In addition, I inform you about the changes I made to the design: 1. The heating element block was replaced by a heating element with screw connection of contacts. 2. The body of the control unit is turned 180 degrees. Attaching photo. Hello to the geniuses of Termex ergonomics.
